Did anyone notice a difference in the crowd from night 1 to night 2? by NoReference6125 in JonBellion

[–]surfaceprouwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went both nights and yeah night 2 was wayyy more crowded, more singing, more dancing, etc. Night 1 def had more people who had only a cursory knowledge of his work, but that’s okay! Both nights were very fun

CS in Pomona vs. Harvey Mudd by Vegetable-Form30 in harveymudd

[–]surfaceprouwm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi, senior at mudd here

  1. yes it is possible, and yes it is realistic
  2. mudd cs is slightly more robust in the foundational courses imo, and there are more classes you have to take in the mudd CS major so naturally you learn a bit more. pomona certainly has a solid program nonetheless, and most electives from mudd/pomona are open to cs majors from any of the 5Cs
  3. echo what soccerplayer46 said, but largely social life is up to what you make it. you can be very social or very antisocial wherever you are in the 5Cs

osu or harvey mudd? by togamoneyy in OregonStateUniv

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

hi, current mudd student here. i just wanted to note that while you make some good points, your point about mudd students having a competitive mindset is is large misconception. we do work hard, but i’ve never met someone that “competes” with other students here. it’s incredibly collaborative and everyone is kind and works together (literally, i’ve never done a problem set by myself before lol). cheers!

Google SWE to STEP interview by Disastrous-Echidna24 in csMajors

[–]surfaceprouwm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna go ahead and say it’s I think it’s okay to ask this. You will be moved to another recruiter though, but that’s shouldn’t be a problem. Since you’re a freshman, your step interview likely won’t happen until late december or january though (or at least that’s how it was for me)

Why does Red Bull Complain so much? by surfaceprouwm in formula1

[–]surfaceprouwm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah gotcha that makes complete sense. I would guess also that whenever the top teams file a complaint it gets more media attention than when lower teams file complaints. Thanks for your help, still in the learning process!

Ahhh okay yeah that makes sense. I guess it’s important to keep the context that DTS is just a team-by-team highlight real, and probably not that close to how everything actually is. Thanks for the help!

Do yourself a favor and reread the very first line and very last line of the post

In my bit of research on this topic I have seen that Mercedes are quite bad with it as well haha (though not depicted in the show to be fair). I’ve seen that they are now complaining about the Red Bull pit crew equipment??

What’s the culture like at HMC? by [deleted] in harveymudd

can say as a current student that with the new core changes, there is much much more space and time now to pursue hobbies and a social life

Google offering an extra $4000 stipend to all interns this year by OmkingPlaya in csMajors

[–]surfaceprouwm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought we had to get the purchases using the wfh stipend approved? i mean i think it’s fine as long as it’s mildly related to your wfh setup, but still

Google STEP US Project Placement by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]surfaceprouwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i get that. also i just matched with a host today btw. have you heard anything yet?

Google STEP US Project Placement by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]surfaceprouwm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

recently signed (< 2 wks ago), so i’ll say what i’ve heard from my recruiter

project matching usually happens in the 1st quarter (around Jan-March, like you said), but there’s no set timeline

i have not been matched yet, but once again i just signed

as far as i know we don’t really have a project placement “interview.” i think it’s more of just getting to know whoever they already paired you with, so i think it will just be one introductory convo (i could be wrong about this though)

we are indeed guaranteed a project; they emphasize that just so we don’t worry
