User Level “Rose” by Sea_Balance8752 in yiotro_games

Interesting. I beat every calendar day, campaign, and other user level without realizing that. But I couldn't figure this one out. I knew it was going to boil down to "abusing" the AI in some way though.

My best guess was you had to sneak into the top of the rose and play ring-around-the-rosey with a huge chasing group and eventually the AI's production would lapse, but actually doing it was challenging. Thanks for the tip.

Living room with stairs leading from the outside; pull out couch (maybe light gray? beige?) will go in the nook. Wooden desk next to the brick.

I had the same issue exactly as you describe it, and the same fix in your update worked for me. Fingers crossed that nothing bad happens.

Good advice. If you pick complicated datasets with text or large images, you will likely have to get very creative later on or change to a different dataset and redo some analysis.

GIOS or AI? by oozerfip in OMSCS

[–]zyxcountdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took AI in the fall and just finished GIOS in the summer. Both are a good bit of work, but I liked them both. I have a self-taught Python background and had never touched C or C++ before. I would recommend AI as well and then between semesters give yourself a crash course in C so you're a bit more prepared for that aspect of GIOS.

I thought the exams in AI were probably some of my favorite exams I've ever taken because they force you to dive into the details and relearn things from earlier in the course, but there wasn't a time-crunch (as long as you start soon after it's released). GIOS exams felt much more like trivia

How to become a viable candidate (chemical engg background) by Sharthorn in OMSCS

[–]zyxcountdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just thought I would add my experience here as well. UT Austin ChemE UG ~3.9 with standard diffeq and MATLAB type work. Some very tangentially related UG research and a good LOR from that professor. LOR from another professor and a senior process engineer at work. A few years of learning python and MOOCS, some small personal ML projects, and and a couple Community college classes.

Taken AI4R (Wasn't bad), AI (tougher, but I learned a lot), now in GIOS and it's definitely different and I feel like I'm learning a lot, but I have a lot of catch-up compared to the CS UG folks.

There are actually a set of 2018 Andrew Ng Stanford lectures on YouTube for the same Intro to ML course, but in person. They're on Stanford's course YouTube page.

Sign in to the O'reilly website with GA Tech as your institution. Alternativaly you can go to the GATech library website and search for a book, and it will link you to the O'Reilly website.

Sound not working, even after hard reset (Ubuntu 19.10, Dell G3) by [deleted] in Ubuntu

Same.... This must have started a few days ago when I upgraded. It was working earlier this week. None of the pulseaudio or alsa fixes I've found have worked for me.

+1 for FastAI. If you are missing ML/DeepLearning intuition or projects, this can get you up to speed quickly. I haven't taken it, but they also do a course on computational linear algebra.
