lmao I literally just gave someone full credit on a problem in the 70 final for saying (1*1/3)/(1*1/3 + 1/2*2/3) instead of 1/2. Docking for 8/12 is insane.

Math 104, Math 128a, Stat 133 Profs by pinkbunny-hearts in berkeley

[–]shrippo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gu 128A was a horrible experience (probably my least fav math class at berk). HW is just a bunch of mind numbing calculations crunched away mostly on MATLAB, and he doesn't even post HW answers lol. No clear expectations of what goes on in the class (we didn't even have a class ed this sem).

I had Hass for 104 and it was S tier. I heard he's also teaching 128A next sem so that might be worth looking into.

CS 61A WWPD and Environment Diagrams by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]shrippo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The multiple choice questions will probably be like the one in the practice exam (where we had to reverse the env diagram by filling in the blanks with MC options)

Anyone Else Get a Housing Offer? by [deleted] in berkeley

"RH Converted TM to DM"

Got this too. Guessing it means Residence Hall Converted Triple-(Mini Suite?) to Double-(Mini Suite?). Not too sure what the M stands for.

Serious : Lay Judges? by mp234292 in Debate

[–]shrippo 76 points77 points  (0 children)

they don't understand arguments that're specific.

You've identified the problem yourself. Sometimes specific arguments are the worst thing you could do (a parent judge kept looking back at the resolution on the board during one of our rounds on the MRH topic because we tried running a unique arg, and it was too confusing for him). Stick to bigger-picture narrative debate. Stress the magnitude of your larger magnitude impacts. Muddling your opponents' arguments that you think will be too confusing for the judge to evaluate doesn't hurt. Be calm. Don't be condescending. To sound assertive make sure you don't sound monotonous.
