IT is anything info tech

opaque sedge
#

People make it sound like its coding at times

craggy shoal
#

I fix people's problems

hoary zodiac
#

Coding is only one aspect

#

There's cybersecurity, data science, etc etc

opaque sedge
worthy meteor
#

IT is tech support but a bit more

opaque sedge
#

Cyber security?

hoary zodiac
#

Nothing

worthy meteor
#

It's all about certifications

hoary zodiac
#

There are no pre reqs

craggy shoal
#

Scripting is the only programming I do

idle nexus
#

wth is AMD HydraVision? lol

frigid stag
#

They all include some level of coding

hoary zodiac
#

You're thinking of computer/software engineering

worthy meteor
idle nexus
#

lol it's from when multiple monitors was like an impressive feature ig

worthy meteor
#

Yea basically mosaic lol

hoary zodiac
#

You don't need calc to do coding either

craggy shoal
#

I need a cybersecurity job

opaque sedge
#

Why am i learning more abt tech careers from a random convo than dedicated classes

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Cybersecurity is fun

craggy shoal
#

You really don't even need math for programming 💀

craggy shoal
hoary zodiac
#

It's just logic

worthy meteor
opaque sedge
#

I need to study smth that can hopefully get a job by graduation

craggy shoal
#

Linear Algebra for what? 💀

frigid stag
worthy meteor
#

Classes just give you what you need to know to do those things

hoary zodiac
#

Computer Science is mid

worthy meteor
#

Not help you choose

hoary zodiac
#

Engineering > CS

worthy meteor
#

CS = engineering in quite a few schools lol

hoary zodiac
#

Computer/Software Engineering often have an overlap

opaque sedge
frigid stag
#

True coding is too borgy. Hardware > software

hoary zodiac
#

Higher salary

opaque sedge
#

And engineering is tough af even for really good students

hoary zodiac
#

Eh

#

Engineering is a broad spectrum

worthy meteor
#

Everything can be tough even for really good students

#

Just different people and affinity

craggy shoal
opaque sedge
frigid stag
#

My friend took cs youd be surprised how much math there is

opaque sedge
#

I wont last in engineering

hoary zodiac
#

Yeah but

#

In a qualitative sense

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

You could have math but is it stupidly annoying math

frigid stag
#

I saw the assignments it’s like a whole different language kekw

worthy meteor
#

Actual engineering rarely uses more than calculus smh

hoary zodiac
#

Crap ton of matrices

opaque sedge
#

Bio engineering looks cool ngl

worthy meteor
#

Some transforms

hoary zodiac
#

God bless graphing calculators

#

They're the solution to everything

opaque sedge
#

What field of study would u guys pick?

frigid stag
#

Between what

hoary zodiac
#

Already have

opaque sedge
opaque sedge
worthy meteor
#

Tbh nuclear seems fun

hoary zodiac
#

Is it an introductory calc course

upper rain
hoary zodiac
#

I'm double dipping

#

It's half electrical half software

#

Tbh most of engineering is double dipping

opaque sedge
upper rain
worthy meteor
hoary zodiac
#

Nah

#

I specifically picked electrical

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Because if I wanted to do software

#

I could do a CS degree later

opaque sedge
#

Do u think studying computer engineering is realistic while working part time?

worthy meteor
#

I specifically picked computer and then got forced to have to take more software courses smh

worthy meteor
hoary zodiac
#

I can only spare one day in a week because I have stupidly high standard

#

In terms of passing

#

It's possible to juggle a part time job

opaque sedge
#

Cs a 70 here

hoary zodiac
#

That's like an A

opaque sedge
#

As are 90

#

Here

hoary zodiac
#

Wait

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

What's that in GPA

ancient swift
worthy meteor
#

Most engineering courses are going to be curved anyways

hoary zodiac
#

And what's the gpa scale

hoary zodiac
#

To be fair my uni tends to scale up

worthy meteor
#

I love curving a C into a A

frigid stag
#

They’ll do anything to not release a 16 core ccd kekw

hoary zodiac
#

Rather than down

opaque sedge
worthy meteor
#

Basically never seen a curve down

hoary zodiac
#

Yeah that's only in high school

#

High school scaling is stupid

rough zinc
#

Man I wish, only curves I get are for my humanities courses 😭

upper rain
hoary zodiac
#

I've seen a mediocre B scaled up to an A

opaque sedge
#

For a 3 credit class a B score is a 3.0 @hoary zodiac

hoary zodiac
#

Is that in GPA or

opaque sedge
#

Yes gpa

worthy meteor
hoary zodiac
#

What's the gpa scale

#

Is it out of 4?

opaque sedge
#

Doesn’t look like total credits matter

upper rain
opaque sedge
#

4 is the max

lone mango
#

in us 4

hoary zodiac
#

It's out of 7 in aus

worthy meteor
#

The reason is they make the average score into a B ish so they curve it more like a normal distribution

upper rain
#

that's wild. i've had some lucky breaks but mostly just recovery from screwups, not freebies 😭

hoary zodiac
#

I'm trying maintain 6.5

upper rain
worthy meteor
hoary zodiac
#

7

upper rain
#

i see

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Uhh

#

I'd say credit

#

Which is like

craggy shoal
#

I graduated with a 3.5 (out of 4)

hoary zodiac
#

5?

opaque sedge
upper rain
opaque sedge
#

Whats 90-100?

ancient swift
#

9950X3DX3D with 192mb L3 instead of 128MB has to be crazy

hoary zodiac
#

6.5-7 is like A+
6 is like A
5 is like B
4 is pass
3 is you suck
Etc

opaque sedge
#

Oh A+

#

i forgot that existed

worthy meteor
opaque sedge
#

How realistic is that for comp eng while working part time

hoary zodiac
#

Not that unrealistic if you're consistent

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Going to A to A+ is exponentially more work

#

Same with B to A but less so

#

You can realistically juggle if you lower your standards

#

Just depends if you want consider scholarships

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

High GPA is for scholarships

#

If you don't care for scholarships it doesn't matter that much

#

Nor will anyone care for your GPA

upper rain
#

so true

opaque sedge
upper rain
#

i keep my GPA gud because otherwise i stop getting free classes

hoary zodiac
#

I keep my GPA high to see if I can snag another scholarship

icy ore
#

🤓

hoary zodiac
#

I need money

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Unfortunate full scholarships aren't a thing here

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

So I have to work for some amount off

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

You apply

upper rain
# hoary zodiac I keep my GPA high to see if I can snag another scholarship

i'm at the point where unless i start doing undergrad research there is not really a lot more to qualify for. and since i missed the boat on internships for the fall, spring i would have the choice between interning and undergrad research. former seems way more viable for my career path, so i'm not going to bother with looking for more handouts

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

It depends on the faculty really

#

STEM is generally more generous

opaque sedge
#

Are internships necessary?

hoary zodiac
#

Depends on the degree

#

Engineering? Yes

# opaque sedge What are u studying for?

criminal justice, later going into law. probs going to end up working with my county probation department for a while since i really want to get started in life, and law school is going to set me back a ton

hoary zodiac
#

Based

opaque sedge
#

Most fields of study seem to need extra effort from students in terms of interships and such ngl

upper rain
#

i can either go to law school full time and wrap up my JD in 3 years or whatever and then be totally destitute, or i can buy a house and work at a job i hate for a few years while doing part time law school. latter seem infinitely more viable

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

I wish I could find a job

#

Apparently employers don't like the "48 hour student visa work limit"

opaque sedge
#

Cuz i would need to work if i’m to go to university

upper rain
hoary zodiac
#

Work placement have been made mandatory here

#

At least in engineering

What's the sem fee

I pay like 19k aud

upper rain
hoary zodiac
#

Around 12.8k usd

upper rain
hoary zodiac
#

12.3)*

upper rain
#

that's after class and textbook costs are accounted for

hoary zodiac
#

Wait

#

Is that scholarship

#

Or the tuition

upper rain
#

mix of scholarships and grants

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

LinkedIn

upper rain
#

but the grants are academically weighted, so they act kinda like scholarships

hoary zodiac
#

Seek

#

Get a job

upper rain
#

i work part time

hoary zodiac
#

Preferably in a related field

#

You just need a job

pliant cargo
#

grilled me a cheese

opaque sedge
#

The jobs i can get are fast food warehouse and stiff

hoary zodiac
#

Yeah

upper rain
# hoary zodiac Preferably in a related field

not really viable unfortunately, but i'm working at least. my hope is that i can float my internship into a short term position, then angle my way into something i semi-enjoy until i can finish law school on the side

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

That's the uni student experience

#

Nobody wants to hire you

#

Except for the general jobs that anyone can get into

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Uni connections are your best driend

hoary zodiac
#

I've hedged my entire future on this course

#

If I fail this course I won't even be able to stay in the country

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Don't have enough money for a second round

opaque sedge
#

Ngl maybe i should give up on studies

hoary zodiac
#

And then it's back to asia

opaque sedge
#

My parents aren’t making enough to support themselves

hoary zodiac
#

And I'm screwed for the rest of my life

opaque sedge
#

I dont qualify for any scholarships

upper rain
hoary zodiac
#

Eh

#

It's not that bad

opaque sedge
upper rain
#

still, all the best to you

opaque sedge
#

And its not even a guarantee

hoary zodiac
#

Thanks

#

I've pretty much hedged everything but at the same time I'm very confident in not screwing up

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Sort of

#

Family money

opaque sedge
#

upper rain
#

don't get cocky though. i almost threw a buuuunch of my scholarships this semester because i was absolutely chilling

hoary zodiac
#

I have to repay them ja

opaque sedge
#

F u man…

hoary zodiac
#

Hey

#

They're not made of money

opaque sedge
#

I’m jealous

hoary zodiac
#

It's their entire life savings

opaque sedge
#

My family dont even got life savings

hoary zodiac
#

It's still debt

opaque sedge
#

They got life credit cards

hoary zodiac
#

Just in a different form

opaque sedge
#

A luckier form

hoary zodiac
#

To be fair there's also a social factor

#

The social climate is also why they're more willing to fund my tuition

#

Don't really want to go back to Hong Kong

#

Would prefer never to step foot there ever again

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Yes actually

#

It's very common

opaque sedge
#

Wth china has that many rich people?

hoary zodiac
#

No

#

Just different values

#

Some of them are rich

#

Can't stand those people

opaque sedge
#

Or is it like 10% of the people have this ability but since its 10% of china it looks like a lot of people?

hoary zodiac
#

I'm in the lower class

#

You have to understand

#

Asians stash away a lot of money

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Especially my mother's generation

#

They went from dirt poor to decent living conditions

#

they don't spend money unless they have to

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

The money isn't used unless it has to be used

opaque sedge
#

Sounds familiar

hoary zodiac
#

It's also not an unlimited piggy bank

#

I barely have enough money for food

opaque sedge
#

Ik that… but the parents i consider “rich” in the US typically also save up for their kids education especially if they’re moving away

hoary zodiac
#

again

#

Different values

#

Children in East Asia are expected to go to university

#

By default the parents would be preparing them for uni

#

And education would also be subsidized partially

opaque sedge
#

American doesn’t make sense to me, some parents here take full responsibility for being able to afford their kids an education and give em a proper environment to do so, some dont give a crap, some wish they could and let their kids default to loans, and some just start working

#

My head hurts

hoary zodiac
#

America is a diverse place

opaque sedge
#

Even with simple math you can see its impossible to be exceptional while studying for a field here without parental help or influence (influence like in life situation like a proper place to eat and live not straight up nepotism)

hoary zodiac
#

East Asia, while diverse, generally has the same ideas regarding education

hoary zodiac
#

That's the norm

#

It's actually insane if you think about it

#

I personally disagree with that approach

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

But it shows how important education is to east asians

opaque sedge
#

I got some tutoring while i was in asia too…

#

But it was mostly for assignment help

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

Ehhh

opaque sedge
rancid juniper
#

lol

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

Confucianism has influenced that mindset yes

opaque sedge
#

Wut

rancid juniper
#

yes

opaque sedge
#

How long ago did that dude exist from again?

hoary zodiac
#

But it's not exclusive to Confucianism

#

uhh

#

500BC

rancid juniper
#

bro is a relic

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

He's a national icon

opaque sedge
#

And asia prolly didn’t even need renaissances to keep his philosophies alive

rancid juniper
#

real

hoary zodiac
#

He's pretty much the Cicero of the East

#

Or uhh

#

Tbh I don't think there's anyone that can compare him in terms of influence

rancid juniper
#

dude is THAT strong

hoary zodiac
#

Plato, Aristotle

opaque sedge
#

Alright guys i gotta crunch an assignment

rancid juniper
#

hmmmm

#

opaque sedge
#

Good talk felt good letting it out dont have anyone else who would listen tbh

upper rain

#

#

His disciples are icons of their own

hoary zodiac
#

I am a Marcus Tullius Cicero shill

opaque sedge
upper rain
#

yep

#

gorgeous place though

opaque sedge
#

Which is also why i dont have many people who i can relate my difficulties with seeking an education with here…

upper rain
#

i'd move there when i'm established if i didn't want to live in the woods away from everyone

hoary zodiac
#

Yeah the thing is

opaque sedge
#

My parents genuinely ducked me over by not moving to PA before my highschool graduation

hoary zodiac
#

Cultural values also define policies

#

So when you already have financial burden

#

Combined with say

#

Relatively less importance placed on higher education

#

Whether socially, in policies, etc

rancid juniper
#

this downdate is looking strange

hoary zodiac
#

Ok in my case

#

It's mostly my family on my mother's side that's willing to help

opaque sedge
pliant berry
#

I don't even feel like looking into this rn, I think there was a change to how it reads libraries

hoary zodiac
#

On that side there's also a relatively high proportion of uhh let's say successful people and people who've lived oveseas

#

So really it's stacked in my favour

#

My father's side however

#

Doesn't care at all

I don't get anything

#

rancid juniper

I legit used some of the aid to build my dream gaming pc

#

i dont regret it

hoary zodiac
#

I used aid to buy a 5700XT

#

Ahahhaha

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

I also used to get $500 HKD every year for being good at English

#

It's not that much money

#

But free money

#

Considering I never studied for English while in HK

opaque sedge
hoary zodiac
#

That is literally why I moved an entire country

I used to, when i started community fully paid for with some left over too, but i was stupid and worked part time at nights at chick fil a while trying to juggle 5 classes combined with parents who didn’t give me a moments peace at home (my “dad” wouldn’t even let me sleep in during weekends)

hoary zodiac
#

Not that efficient eh?

opaque sedge
#

i tried to bring myself back up but i inevitably failed my classes

upper rain
#

unironically i'm probably just going to pour all of my savings into BTC next time it crashes. every time i say this it goes up like 40%

hoary zodiac
#

You don't do that

#

You simply don't

rancid juniper
#

My parents wouldn't dare do that to me

hoary zodiac
#

If someone is studying

#

You leave them alone

#

It's a sacred space

rancid juniper
#

even when my dad would ask me when will i ever get a job he wouldn't go as far as pushing me out the house

#

honestly grateful

hoary zodiac
#

I usually use the excuse "I'm studying" to get out of stuff

#

Always works

opaque sedge
# rancid juniper are we fr???

It gets worse i had the opportunity to retake the classes next semester but my dad got a dui quit his job, forced me to doordash with him and failed those classes too worst part is i was doing extremely well in the first half of that semester

rancid juniper
#

the fact that i had it spelled right and edited it

hoary zodiac

That is literally sabotage

My “parents” dont seem to think so

Saved up 5k tho…

Which i’m almost out of now

craggy shoal

Man I could really use 5K rn

Even just 10% of that would be great

Anybody willing to donate?

That's like

Pffff

Just 10% though

#

not that much

hoary zodiac

I wish I had 10% of that money spare

All my money is going straight to food

craggy shoal
#

You know when you look at a "deal" and it says "10 PERCENT OFF FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY" and you're like "woooow what a bargain (/s)"

#

yeah 10% isn't that much

#

Obligatory: (obviously joking)

opaque sedge

And i had a grand left this year

The U.S. never got the Lupo GTI or the VR5 engine, so we’re bringing them together for a one-of-a-kind swap. This might be the wildest VW engine swap I’ve ever attempted, and honestly… we’re not even sure how it’s going to turn out.

"The inst. memory is a 17- instead of 16-bit so it has a 5-bit address, meaning it has 32 unique instructions, with 1 per step allowed ofc. The extra instructions(so far) are PORT(LOD/STR) and MATH(ADD/SUB/MULT/DIV/SQR/SQRT), giving 8 inst's."

They were like 150 on eBay last time

6600xt should be around a bit less than a 3060ti imo

For some reason people value 6600 over a 2070/2060 super/ 1080 ti etc “amd is better for gaming” worked

I see 6600s go for like 170

The msrp one at least

Yeah pretty bad

eu has them for under msrp

I think asrock stopped making these or something

This has been out of stock for weeks, even at micro center

And the amazon listing has been at 570 for weeks

VRAM amount

south sapphire

But someone in another server said 4070 is a better card?

I guess just confusing is all

#

Is it a better card? Or does it matter the situation?

dense locust

Pretty sure It’s better in power alone

#

But if you run out of vram it won’t matter

#

Depends on the resolution you play at tho

#

Looks like the 4070 is slower than a 3090

Maybe it beats it in ray tracing or something

Retail 💀

opaque sedge

But I mean obviously you don't want that

lmao

Actually, I'd also look around and see if there are any other degrees you might be interested in. Cybersecurity is the route I took. I'm barely using my degree rn because I'm stuck between wanting to work for another company or working full time with my parents (I also work with my parents)

And yes I work in IT. It's actually where most cybersecurity workers start

wary fjord
craggy shoal
#

The only reason why I might not suggest cybersecurity is because IT is sometimes a pain to get into. Easy work? Yes. Hard to get into? Not necessarily. You just need good luck getting your foot in the door, or know some people who could get you a position. Work a few months to a year (minimum), seek new IT positions. Keep working your way up to at least a senior technician, then go start searching for entry-level cybersecurity positions
