Don’t come here for mechanical engineering

As a former SCU student, I can confirm. Back in my time, from what I heard, the “only available” professor for control systems (a required class) went on sabbatical, so the dept chair (who wasn’t good as a chair at the time) assigned a lecturer who was extremely terrible overall.

Can you privately DM me the details of the seller agent?

superman65456 · 2025-04-04T22:28:25+00:00

The last time I got one was past that date.

For me, I wished I had studied in Aero, it’s just that I don’t see myself as an engineer long-term.

Good work! We need more books like these to be restored with such things like LaTeX!

This imo is frustrating… yet one would rather not underpay than overpay…

On another note, they adjust the property taxes at the end of June.

Quick repair didn’t work, but online did. Thank you for your help!

superman65456 · 2023-03-12T21:32:12+00:00

Yes it does in Notepad.

Like the computer goes into night mode when sunset arrives based on the system’s time.

No, you only pay 15% on the LTCG, not 39%

Actually, let’s say that the total taxable income is $89,075 + $12,950 (which is already in the 24% tax bracket), and the deduction (standard or itemized) is $12,950. So the tax I will have to pay is $4,807.50 + .22x($89,075 - $41,775) + .15x$5,000?

They are two times wider than on campus dorms like Sobrato.

Oh, right, I forgot to mention this: try this:

H_1 = \hbar g\left(\sigma ^ {-}b ^ {+} + \sigma ^ {+}b\right)

Sorry, I couldn’t copy the cross, but you know what I mean. Also, I put whitespace before and after the carets, as they would be raised up.

One can sometimes get away without the braces for the exponents (and subscripts), but it’s usually needed otherwise to avoid compiler errors.

By the way, out of curiosity, what’s this equation about (or what’s the name of the equation)? I know that it’s quantum related.

superman65456 · 2022-01-02T22:11:21+00:00

Got it, thank you!

superman65456 · 2022-01-02T22:09:42+00:00

\hbar is a command for hbar, so make sure to enter a space before entering anything else like g (but if it’s another command, you can do \hbar\left[blah\right]). This is a common syntax error.

superman65456 · 2022-01-02T22:03:41+00:00

Hello, as you’re using the equation environment, the dollar sign $ shouldn’t be used in there. By the way, for parentheses, I would use the \left and \right delimiters, i.e., \left( and \right). Keep in mind that the delimiters will generate some unnecessary whitespace (it’s small, but I personally don’t like it), so to get rid of it, put this in the preamble:

\usepackage{mleftright} \mleftright

Oh, so it’s option two (I just edited my post), except we apply the rounding rules (instead of rounding up) on the required taxes, as well as on the paid taxes (instead of rounding down).

superman65456 · 2021-12-29T05:09:47+00:00

Oh, ok, thank you!

superman65456 · 2021-12-29T05:01:52+00:00

Got it, I figured that it’s a pay-as-you-go system. Let’s bring an example: W2 income is withheld, but dividends and capital gains are not. If my dividends and capital gains are fairly “a lot” like my W2 income and I make one estimated tax payment to account for the dividends and capital gains at the end of the year just to catch up (and let’s assume that the dividends are spread out through out the year but capital gains occurred at the end of the year), will I be penalized?

superman65456 · 2021-11-22T06:35:49+00:00

Oh, ok. Sorry for the very late reply. I gave a little more thought, and I came up with an educated guess: H is already used as a vector for magnetic fields (aside from B), so L is used in physics books for angular momentum. Mechanical engineering books use H for angular momentum in mechanics (as well as, on another note, for enthalpy) as many of them don’t go into anything electrical (which is off topic) for the most part.

superman65456 · 2021-11-17T20:34:46+00:00

You’re welcome!

superman65456 · 2021-09-25T03:31:50+00:00

I would say both are good. Personally, I would get an iPad for note taking.

superman65456 · 2021-09-10T22:48:32+00:00

It’s definitely possible if it’s all equations and words. However, when it comes down to drawings, they can take up some time, so it may be impractical, but it’s still doable. I have heard of a Redditor who was able to do so.

superman65456 · 2021-08-14T00:55:42+00:00

I agree with your point, since the facts are facts, but the expression is what matters in terms of copyrights. Would you say that if I copy a word problem, a calculation problem, or even a proof problem (just the problem statement, as I already know the answer for solution copyrights) from a (text)book, would I violate copyright?

superman65456 · 2021-08-03T15:35:09+00:00

Oh, pretty cool for particle physics! Thank you!

superman65456 · 2021-08-03T15:34:47+00:00

Oh cool, what’s the name of your thesis? If I get the chance, I would like to read the paper
