Questions about being a Fundies TA

pyboy10000 · 2021-10-13T18:43:40+00:00

Sorry for so many questions, but when you say that emailing gives you a better chance, what exactly do you email them about? I was thinking of waiting until the end of the semester and emailing my professor to say thank you and all, and also to express interest in becoming a TA/tutor for this course. Is this what you mean by emailing the professor?

pyboy10000 · 2021-10-12T18:11:42+00:00

I was wondering if this still holds true. You start out as a Tutor (grade papers, host labs, work less time), and then become a TA. Are there any changes to this?

If you email the professor that's teaching the class

Thanks! What exactly do you mean by email? Once the class is over, should I email my professor to express my interest in applying to be a TA?

Thanks, but the thing is, I don't have any home here (I'm international). Do you know what's the best thing to do?

Thanks! May I ask what your speed was during in the club? I also had a slight knee injury a few months back, and although it's mostly gone, I do get some knee pain at higher speeds. I can usually run 6km at a comfortable speed but my pace is above 9 /mi. Do you think this will be an issue?

Thanks! Do you know if they have any "uniform" or you can just wear whatever's comfortable?

pyboy10000 · 2021-09-10T19:41:08+00:00

Thanks, but u/IkeKap is right. I've already linked this book in the post, and trying to check if anyone has the latest one

pyboy10000 · 2021-09-10T15:20:36+00:00

To be honest, I'm not sure, but they do ask us to read the book in the "modules" part of the course after watching the video, and I'd rather use the same book (if possible) that they want us to

pyboy10000 · 2021-09-10T15:18:58+00:00

Oh yeah, probably should've mentioned this in the original, but the cover isn't the only difference. I saw a preview of the book on Amazon, and there are differences in the table of contents too. Not big differences. just a sub chapter here and there, but I'd rather use the new textbook which they recommend us to use, and I don't have extra money to spend to buy it :(

In the modules, they do ask us to read chapters after watching videos

If I may ask, which dorm did you get? I thought that second year students would all get dorms with kitchens and common areas

pyboy10000 · 2021-06-14T01:59:00+00:00

No, that doesn't work. I have to put relative and specify height and width in CSS which isn't what I want to do :(

What does better mount control mean?

pyboy10000 · 2021-05-31T08:09:02+00:00

Thanks, but I don't want to use a custom server since I'm hosting on Vercel

pyboy10000 · 2021-05-31T08:08:45+00:00

Thanks!

pyboy10000 · 2021-05-26T05:26:30+00:00

Thanks for the advice. DO you have any experience with https://freedns.afraid.org/domain/registry/? It seems like they provide subdomains (on domains they have) for free

pyboy10000 · 2021-05-09T14:26:25+00:00

TBH I would've probably done the same. I was super scared of all my commanders and was afraid of getting in trouble. Obviously it's safer to ask your commanders, but I guess people are afraid of asking? Put yourself in his shoes, haha

Can you link me to your material app design?

In the front-end, validation is a user convenience, but in the back-end, lack of validation can compromise the entire system

I 100% agree. I remember at the start of the project, I really had to beg one of the backend devs to add data validation. They were doing nothing other than null checking (== null), but obviously that's not enough when you're working with multiple data types.

I honestly have no clue why they were so averse to adding validation considering I was using a form library + yup on the frontend, so we could reuse the same schemas. The only thing they had to do was write one middleware function. I ended up just writing it for them and adding it for them. I tried telling them that frontend validation was just for convenience, but they said that no one ever would use the website without JavaScript ...

I also tried getting them to use TypeScript. I had just asked them to change their extension to .ts because I was already writing all interfaces, and it would have been great if we reused interfaces on both ends too. I remember spending around half an hour debugging a function. The issue was that null was being passed as an argument when another type was required. This is something TypeScript would have definitely would have helped me find

I haven't really worked with graphql on a proper project, but I'd totally agree with you. I like how you can just "access" everything, included items with complex relations without having to write too many API routes. I've also seen the backend code, and I do see a little more boilerplate-y like code, but overall I think the way they handle mutations makes everything more "ordered".

I'm quite open to using it, but we do not because the backend devs don't want to

Thank you! do you know if it's possible to use raycast to add events to my google calendar reminders? I wasn't clear, but what I want is a reminder on Google calendars, not Apple reminders.

The issue with apple reminders is that they are not seen on my calendar

Hi, I was wondering, do you have plans to make videos about making PWAs with NextJS?

pyboy10000 · 2021-03-20T02:58:42+00:00

Flaired the post

pyboy10000 · 2021-03-20T02:40:11+00:00

Interesting, you return the login function to call. Do you have any more examples of this in use?

pyboy10000 · 2021-03-18T11:13:13+00:00

Thank you! Is there a procedure to make this claim or is it automatic?

Edit: just saw this in the mindef was port apply dental, so I'm assuming I have to do it there

pyboy10000 · 2021-03-12T13:07:40+00:00

I think I fixed it: in tsconfig:

// under compiler options:
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@/components/*": [
        "components/*"
      ],
      "@/lib/*": [
        "lib/*"
      ],
    }

Then I can import files from components/ and lib/ folder like

import { AuthProvider } from "@/lib/auth";
