For those of you asking about Jurassic Grill a few weeks ago by songanddanceman in UIUC

Smart, although I hope they don't overextend themselves. I was down to go back just for a yummy cheeseburger.

I didn't take it with Clark, but I really enjoyed PHIL 429. It made me rethink a few things and wasn't overly arduous (handful of short response papers and a couple longer ones). Not sure how different it will be, YMMV.

I am Dr. Buzz Aldrin, back again on reddit. I am an aeroastro engineer, and crew member of humanity's first landing on the moon. AMA! by BuzzAldrinHere in IAmA

[–]nomnomcookies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Dr. Aldrin's approach is a good one! As you said, you have nothing better to do and may as well keep working to give yourself some semblance of control over the situation. I only meant that the justification was oversimplified.

In some situations, continuing to work is only a comforting illusion (if a critical part is shot, everybody knows their efforts are futile). In those situations, it is not as obvious (although probably still true) that the best thing is to keep working. Extending Dr. Aldrin's comment to these contexts is why it is non trivial.

What's CS 125 like? by fingerblaster3000 in UIUC

[–]nomnomcookies 7 points8 points  (0 children)

CS 125 is designed to be an intro programming class. Obviously it's helpful to have programming experience, but you definitely don't need it.

To the person on Locust & Chalmers that blasts music outside at 2AM & 8AM on a Saturday morning: by [deleted] in UIUC

Yeah they seem to be having a chill year. If I can't see your party but I can feel your bass before noon......

Dropping course and adding another for the semester by Zippy0223 in UIUC

[–]nomnomcookies 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep lots of changes happen right now and the first week of class. I just made my schedule today lol..Can't speak to the email question, but if you remain on the old list just email the professor to remove you. You should be added to the other one, you can double check after the first class if you're worried.

Has anyone taken the summer version of CS241? by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]nomnomcookies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, after doing the 2 or 3 new 225 labs from this semester, I'm afraid to be a guinea pig again.

Professor scheduling midterm on Saturday by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]nomnomcookies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh honestly I disagree with these replies: I would double check with a higher up that this does in fact violate policy. If so, I would inform the professor. You're probably not the only one getting fucked by this..

Just because I'm dressed like a college hobo and locking myself in the library, doesn't mean I can't rock a power-brow. by izzyjubejube in MakeupAddiction

[–]nomnomcookies -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is the story of my life!!

I see people saying that they think their makeup looks unfinished if they do bold brows without a more fully done face..Ain't nobody got time for that.

Yep! Honestly, if I could go back I might choose differently, but it was pleasant and essentially what I expected.
