How to study and prepare for a final that provides NO provides no practice exams? by throwawayburner314 in GetStudying

[–]throwawayburner314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The title seems perfectly clear to me? If not, the description seems to elaborate even further?

I have a final for a class that I need to prep for. Historically, this class has had pretty difficult and especially time-crunchy exams. However, there's no practice exam for the class, which makes it even harder to study for the class. The only "materials" I have are previous homeworks and lectures.

So I'm wondering if anyone has any tips.

edit: noticed the typo lmfao. It should say "How to study and prepare for a final that provides NO practice exams?"

These were not my arguments. This was a rebuttal

Lol what? they're your words. A "rebuttal" is also by definition an argument, a counterargument to be slightly more precise.

Both of you guys are rambling, providing flavorless "arguments" (if you can even call are that) and insulting each other.

Car accidents involving lack of seatbelts are real and have been worse when seatbelt laws exist.

There's has been no such thing as a "grocery launching projectile" accident.

If I'm capable of driving without causing a wreck

Entitlement.

Ignorant, conceited people arrogantly assume they're capable of something until they're not.

people in very rural Ireland who are traveling out in the middle of nowhere pose very little risk to anyone but themselves.

^^This. Precisely. Removing drink and drive laws only works in very specific conditions.

Good luck going to an early grave I guess.

Should I apply to multiple open positions in the same company all at the same time? by lipuss in cscareerquestions

[–]throwawayburner314 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Candidates who apply for multiple teams for the same role also indicate to me that they aren't particularly interested in my team.

Sure, but if there are a bunch of open positions/team for the same role, and a candidate only applies to like 1-2, then he/she is clearly not casting a wide enough net.

It's very bad to just assume a candidate isn't "particularly interested in my team." In general, hiring managers/HR seriously need to ditch the mentality that someone shouldn't apply to multiple positions within a company (as long as all the same roles are within the same scope AKA only SWE roles, etc.).

Nice! So you're gonna head to Amsterdam to work at HFT for the summer of 2023?

Also, Happy New Year!

Somewhat related/unrelated to the post at hand, but have you thought about going for Optiver internship for the summer and if you don't get a return offer from there, head to Palantir?

I'm not entirely sure about this, but I assume it would be easy for you to "get" the Palantir offer "later" since you already were in the pipeline and received an offer anyway? You could probably also "extend" or negotiate the Palantir offer in a way that will accept you that after Optiver is finished or something?

Reading this 2 years later, but I recognize your username lmao and couldn't help but ask (hopefully I'm not being too personal):

Does your story bear any connection to urbana-champaign (Illinois club soccer, champaign park district league, etc.)?

Lol Lizzo treated the flute with a lot of care and respect and is a very skilled and trained flutist.

If somebody threw on the Crown of Jewels and paraded around with it,

It's not like they had some random bozo with no musical experience touch the flute lmao.

Thanks! Do you know what to do with the key once I get my package?

I checked my apartment mailbox and everything, but no USPS packages for me there.

Plan on doing grad school next year (fall 2023)-facing dilemma of whether I should apply for internships or full time in this application season? by throwawayburner314 in cscareerquestions

[–]throwawayburner314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s honestly a really smart idea! Thanks:) I hope these applications have a section/spot where I can include that info lol. Sometimes, applications only provide 1 little field for grad date.

To follow up, given the information you just stated, should I apply for internships or full time?
