Something that pisses me off about AI is that the way it interprets lyrics

#

I can get into heavy debates with someone on that. Do NOT piss me off with your interpretation.

#

Especially when it comes to one direction songs

jagged forge
#

ive never tried that with it

timid bronze

#

but lyrics are pretty personal and i suppose ai defaults to generic depersonalized slop

#

So not as lyric based

I'm thinking about going to Florida Tech for university

#

I got my acceptance yesterday

#

If I do go there, then I'm going for my chosen major of biomathematics

timid bronze
#

Call me insane but I only applied to 1 school actually since my parents wouldn’t let me go out of state and I was egotistical about not getting denied

#

Hey it was COVID and I didn’t have to submit my standardized test scores

rotund cypress
# neat lintel Where else did you apply?

Abilene Christian University for Mathematics, Southwestern University for Computational Mathematics, UC Riverside for Data Science, University of Colorado Colorado Springs (safety. Forgot the major i applied for), Wichita State (safety. Forgot the major to this one too). UT Dallas for Data Science, Southern Methodist for Data Science, Spelman College for CS (plans have changed since then), Trinity for CS with a minor in data science and statistical something, Georgia Tech for their new major Mathematics and Computing, and the New Jersey Tech for Data Science

neat lintel
#

Those are some good schools

#

Are you in state for Florida ?

rotund cypress
#

Nope! I'm from Texas xlthumbsup

neat lintel
#

No UT Austin?

rotund cypress
#

Nope. My SAT score wouldn't have came in in time since I took the December SAT

neat lintel
#

I see

rotund cypress
#

Worst mistake of my life btw

neat lintel
#

Did you get a good score?

rotund cypress
#

Nope. The questions were so weird though

#

Especially on the math portion

neat lintel
#

I get it

#

Let’s so no other UC other than riverside?

rotund cypress
# neat lintel I get it

Yeah. But for colleges I got accepted into so far, I got accepted into Abilene Christian University, Southwestern, UC Riverside, University of Colorado Springs, Wichita State, and Florida Tech as you know lol. And I was waitlisted from New Jersey Tech. Waiting on the other schools

rotund cypress
#

Unfortunately I can't go because it's too expensive :(

zealous bronze
#

yeah state schools out of state is very rough

#

UC tuition is still not amazing but more reasonable if you're in state

#

not to mention you'll get much less financial aid

# neat lintel Why biomathematics?

I mean, it ties in perfectly to biostatistics, bio engineering, bioinformatics, etc. As the major itself combines coding, mathematics, and biology all together

#

I feel like it'll help me too when I apply for a Biostatistics program

neat lintel
#

You’re very smart, biomathematics sounds insanely hard

rotund cypress
#

Yeah, but I'm sure I can do it!

#

I'm ready to tackle it 💪

#

All of my chosen majors are all math heavy though lol

# silent junco in what way

#

whats holding you back?

fresh comet
#

it's gotten to the point where I've had real thoughts of just ditching my life and leaving for a while giggle though I guess that sounds overdramatic

#

I doubt I'd ever actually do that, lest I decide to stop caring for those around me :p

silent junco
#

its not overdramatic but is there any specific reason youre feeling like this?

fresh comet
#

I can think of a pretty major reason, but it's not exactly something I enjoy talking about EB_JolteonGiggle2

timid bronze
fresh comet
#

I don't want to mope around either though kLaugh

timid bronze
#

It could be that you’re burnt out and that feeling is more common than people admit

Don’t feel like you are dramatic for this

silent junco
fresh comet

I appreciate the support EB_EspeonLove

#

I'd be lying if I said that I didn't know what I need to do already though slightlyembarrassed

#

it's just a little hard to change who you've been for so long

timid bronze
#

Sometimes the hardest part is actually doing something about it

fresh comet
#

I should clarify that this is more to do with my personal life, and less so with anything you see of me here hehe

silent junco
#

yeah i thought as much

timid bronze

At least you figured it out, that’s already a huge step

Make sure you are giving yourself breaks too in your studies

You should not be doing constant work with no breaks, and breaks can involve putting yourself out there and talking to people

i dont have any advice to give but like its understandable to feel isolated, i think this is a growing problem

Ok, but.. beauty standards are toxic and always changing. What was ugly before can be beautiful now and what was praised before can be hated today. People on social media calling a person ugly says nothing about the person and everything about the hater. Their opinions do not matter because they do not know that person’s life. They do not see their friends..their family..or the people who care about that person. They are irrelevant, lol. They do not know their struggles or their strengths. That said, their opinions mean nothing. The only way they can hurt someone is if that person believes them. If the person convinces themselves their words define them, they give power to people who do not know them and do not see their life. Stop giving them that power. The person they are hating on is not what strangers on a screen say they are

Hi, has anyone ever drafted a proposal for hackathons?

silent junco
#

up until pretty recently i thought wavelets were irrelevant but turns out the theory is pretty deep

latent edge
sterile fable
#

Getting into one

latent edge
#

idk just yap about your projects

sterile fable
#

But it’s supposed to be based on the problem statements

#

Last time I did that we didn’t make it

latent edge
#

maybe if you know the hackathon's theme then relate your projects to the hackathon

sterile fable
#

What if I am a freshman with zero projects

latent edge
#

last time I barely wrote anything for my proposal and I got in but I swore I will never attend one after my experience monkey

sterile fable
#

I wanna get into quant all this don’t even matter but my friends in college forced me to join 😞

sterile fable
#

I wanna attend an offline one

latent edge
#

yeah my proposal was literally like

sterile fable
#

The past two online version we didn’t make it

#

The next phase was supposed to be offline

latent edge
#

"my project about plotting the frobenii of galois representations is related to... because..."

sterile fable
#

Ooh

latent edge
#

the hackathon was based on fitness stuff

sterile fable
#

Oh lol

latent edge
#

I just made sure to show that I care about data and numerical analysis even tho my projects had nothing to do with fitness stuff

timid bronze
#

I do not want to deal with your madness

sterile fable
#

The problem statement I picked is about UPI fraud detection (payment system)

latent edge
#

cool

#

there's some nice skills you could learn from doing that

#

a big one is database

#

Yeah

They have provided that as well

Secure AI Software and Systems Hackathon Problem Statements

  1. NPCI's UPI Fraud Detection
    Blue Team Challenge
    Develop an AI/ML solution to identify fraudulent transactions in the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system and implement defensive measures to protect legitimate transactions.
    Key Objectives:
    Implement anomaly detection techniques to identify unusual transaction patterns
    Explore ensemble methods or deep learning approaches to improve prediction accuracy
    Address the challenge of imbalanced datasets using techniques like SMOTE
    Develop a user-friendly dashboard for visualizing transaction risks and fraud alerts
    Create real-time monitoring systems for immediate threat detection
    Recommended Datasets:
    UPI Transaction Dataset: 660 transaction records with 23 features including Transaction_ID, Amount, Merchant_Category, Device_ID, and fraud labels
    https://ejournal.svgacademy.org/index.php/ijiee/article/download/189/195/1411
    (need to find this dataset)

Online Payments Fraud Detection Dataset: Large-scale dataset for fraud detection modeling and testing

the previous hackathon was way better

#

it was space-themed and I had a lot of data to work with

sterile fable
#

Oh wow that’s nice

latent edge
#

meanwhile the last one was just like "yeah vibe code a half assed react website to motivate people to get into fitness"

sterile fable
#

Haha

#

We lowkey did the same last time

#

Just getting into ml now

#

And it’s hard to find people to make a team with proper knowledge as well

#

Yesterday I got rejected by some fellow 😞

latent edge
grizzled berry
sterile fable
#

We never made it 😭
So I guess the proposal would be the first thing

#

Cuz they select you on your ideation here

sterile fable
latent edge
#

yeah good luck

#

If you get in make sure to have fun cuz if you don't find hackathons enjoying then there is no need to force yourself into one

sterile fable
#

I know right!

#

Last time we met up at my friends house

#

We enjoyed

#

But I wanna have that overnight experience in different campuses

#

And excited to meet new people

yeah it's nice meeting new peeps

Physical traits, parental trauma, and cognitive failure have left no foundation for progress.

I am neurodivergent and I have trauma of when people try killing me because of my ethnicity, but even then I can find things to enjoy 🙂

#

There are many healthy ways to cope or even enjoy life beside girls and love life

I’m glad you’ve found ways to find enjoyment, but my circumstances feel fundamentally different. Between my physical traits and the history I’ve lived through, these are constant parameters I have to navigate every second
