Hm?

#

Yeah but how many 16bits of memory are you gonna have

twilit hinge
#

oh

trim edge
#

And you’re still creating 8 bits and then putting it in 16 bits so in total you’re using 24

#

So you’re still using more memory

#

That’s why I really wanna learn c to understand more about memory allocation / manipulation

#

At northeastern the class is operating systems

twilit hinge
#

is that class in C?

#

cause I still wonder why fundies 1 is starting in racket 💀

trim edge
#

C unix and assembly

twilit hinge
#

awesome

trim edge
#

💀

trim edge
#

Teach

twilit hinge
#

that maye be in the concentration swe

pliant lotus
#

swe concentration

#

why the fuck would anyone do that

trim edge
twilit hinge
pliant lotus
#

if you are a CS major genuinely zeroing in on swe during undergrad in this job market you are stupid af

twilit hinge
#

its software in general

trim edge
#

Hopefully I can get out of fundies 1&2 discrete structures and ood

trim edge
twilit hinge
#

that would be nice

twilit hinge
pliant lotus
trim edge
#

Oh so like backend stuff

twilit hinge
#

yea

#

that or ai

trim edge
#

You might switch after operating systems

#

💀

pliant lotus
trim edge
#

Assembly is heldl

pliant lotus
#

which is immediately better than SWE

twilit hinge
#

ik assembly sucks

trim edge
#

Do they have a ml concentration

pliant lotus
twilit hinge
#

uhhhh

trim edge
twilit hinge
pliant lotus
#

assembly is cool

trim edge
#

💀

#

Bros lying

pliant lotus
#

this maybe comes from playing a lot of shenzhen io and doing a lot of reverse engineering

#

but it's actually cool once u know what ur doing

trim edge
#

You have fun in that big bro 🙏🏽🙏🏽

pliant lotus
#

I will <3

pliant lotus
#

altho idk whos hiring for that

#

security research maybe but like not sure i wanna do that full time

twilit hinge
#

@trim edge I found the koitlin

#

should be human centered computing

trim edge
#

Bro that’s so stupid 😞

twilit hinge
#

concentration

trim edge
#

You get different fundies classes depending on your concentration?

pliant lotus
twilit hinge
#

ah ok

twilit hinge
#

everyone gets fundies 1 and 2

pliant lotus
#

u can be in cybersec and do like policy

twilit hinge
#

they're like weed out classes

pliant lotus
#

but i think id shoot myself if i did that

#

it's so boring

twilit hinge
#

lmao

trim edge
twilit hinge
#

is ok

trim edge
#

I think I’ll just grind leetcode and personal projects then first two semesters

twilit hinge
#

join me in the racket pain for fundies 1

twilit hinge
#

leetcode i may slowly do it once I get more familiar with DSA

trim edge
#

I looked at a fundies 2 GitHub and it was all basic Java stuff

pliant lotus
trim edge
twilit hinge
#

can u link to me

trim edge
#

Like object oriented stuff

#

Seems easy

trim edge
twilit hinge
#

that'll give me more itme to personally grind projects

#

yes

#

well atually

twilit hinge
#

if u want dm me

trim edge
#

From YouTube

twilit hinge
#

he has awesome explanations

pliant lotus
#

actually maybe weeder courses are fine

trim edge
twilit hinge
#

I dont check my notif friend request lmao

pliant lotus
#

it gets rid of the braindead applicants who dont actually wanna do it

twilit hinge
#

theres too many

trim edge
#

Popular guy

twilit hinge
#

it just accumulated over the years 💀

trim edge
#

Hopefully I’ll have like 100 problems completed by the end of the summer

#

But I suggest doing that

twilit hinge
#

are u already familiar with algorithms

#

or u just gonna learn through rpacticing leet

trim edge
twilit hinge
#

ooh ok

trim edge
#

Ik stuff like selection sort binary sort insertion sort

pliant lotus
#

or senior

trim edge
#

I’m learning the data structure right now

twilit hinge
trim edge
#

Arrays arraylists linkedlists stacks queues

twilit hinge
#

tbh a lot of people tell me hold off on leetcode

#

its too early

pliant lotus
trim edge
#

Im boutta be a leetcode hero🙏🏽

twilit hinge
#

lmfao

pliant lotus
#

my brother didnt do it until like

#

junior

twilit hinge
#

reverse the linked list

twilit hinge
#

idk how international works

trim edge
#

I usually focus on array leetcode

#

Arrays and hashmaps

twilit hinge
#

thats good start

trim edge
#

Yeah I really wanna learn python tho

#

Java is so limited

#

That’s why I wanna buy the neetcode thing

twilit hinge
#

python is so easy to learn

#

the only problem with ython

#

is indentation

pliant lotus
twilit hinge
#

it can be annoying

pliant lotus
#

it's just syntax

twilit hinge
#

yea

trim edge
pliant lotus
#

and it's a scripting language with like 10 trillion "features" shoehorned in

#

so u can do whatever the fuck u want

twilit hinge
#

super high level fr

trim edge
#

Yeah I just wanna learn it so I can do leetcode efficiently

#

Screw the run times

pliant lotus
#

leetcode with python not greatest idea

trim edge
#

Everyone does leetcode in python

pliant lotus
#

well depends

twilit hinge
#

python is simple

pliant lotus
#

idk how interviews deal with time and all that

twilit hinge
#

they dont mind py

#

cause its also easier to get the idea across

trim edge
#

Time complexity is the same in all languages

pliant lotus
#

but tbh who gives a fuck about time complexity if you're in python, it's gonna run like shit regardless

#

yeah ik

trim edge
#

You just needa be able to explain how fast your program will run and hoe@much new memory it’ll allocate

#

So time complexity and space complexity

twilit hinge
#

oh answr

#

anwr

#

can u dm me that github

trim edge
#

Oh yeah

twilit hinge
#

for the fundie 2 java

trim edge
#

Did you accept

twilit hinge
#

ya

trim edge
#

Aight one sec

#

nuin location selection opens tmrw

slow warren
#

no

#

they sent me a fee-waiver so I applied

#

I don't know about OSU, but if your going into something competitive then NEU might be a better bet than other schools for job placement because of the co-ops

#

The majority of fresh CS grads from my state school are working in other fields because they just can't get a job and I feel like this is less of a problem at a school like NEU

blazing scaffold
#

why do you have to make a deposit to select a location

#

all the good ones are gonna be taken 😦

slow warren
#

(I have no idea what your talking about)

blazing scaffold
#

have to commit to select a location

#

untold shale

twilit hinge
#

I updated my application around 2 weeks before decisions came out and they were ok

#

U could call them just to confirm

slow warren
#

I submitted the SRAR 20 days after the deadline

untold shale
#

ima email them

untold shale
#

aight thats good to know lmao

twilit hinge
#

Yea I updated srar too

slow warren

If u have nothing to add

Call them instead of emailing imo

Cause idk about mid year report and srar update

#

Its faster

untold shale
#

it shows up on upload materials

#

but not on my like checklist

#

is that aight

twilit hinge
#

Sure

untold shale
#

its about additional essay

twilit hinge
#

Srar is just easier for them to look ig but they’ll orob see that

untold shale
#

i was gonna do it like weeks ago

#

but never had the chance to email them

#

cus im a dumbass

twilit hinge
#

Lol its ok

#

Ig just email

#

But submit eitther way wont hurt to

untold shale
#

ye i most def will

#

also do yk if neu cares a lot about rank

#

like as much as gpa/rigor

slow warren
twilit hinge
#

Not too sure but they just compare u mostly to ur peers in general

untold shale
#

my gpa is good and rigor too but

twilit hinge
#

They check ur school prpfile compared to u

untold shale
#

my class is v competitive this year

slow warren
#

but then I realized I could just select something random for that and fill in pass/fail afterwards

twilit hinge
#

If ur gpa and rigor is good ur fine they’ll see

untold shale
untold shale
#

but my class' median gpa this year is like

#

94 or 93

#

and i have a 96

#

soooo 💀

twilit hinge
#

Thars good

#

Ue above average

untold shale
#

yes but im not top 10%

slow warren
#

NEU has never denied an applicant from my school

twilit hinge
#

Check their cds

untold shale
twilit hinge
#

“to finalize my decision”

primal sedge
#

I'd need to check

wicked imp
primal sedge
#

Tell us what?

#

We got in?

wicked imp
#

YeH

primal sedge
#

I'm talking ab the fact they ask us to verify our parents know about us going there

#

xd

wicked imp
#

Yeah*

primal sedge
#

I got same email asking for it

wicked imp
primal sedge
#

Like my parents know im applying to college and graduating early

#

why do u need me to verify?

#

like explain???

wicked imp
#

cuz they knew about my early graduation

#

Exactly

#

It was Wendy

primal sedge
#

Yep same

#

from oakland

#

🤣

wicked imp
#

😂

primal sedge
#

thats funny

#

and ur not even from US

#

Thats odd its same AO

wicked imp
#

wait she’s from Oakland

primal sedge
#

yeah

#

same thing dw

#

Oakland Campus (All girls campus)

#

but they read for all campuses

wicked imp
#

Probably cuz Oakland is so unsafe

wicked imp
wicked imp
primal sedge
#

Well maybe we got rejected from higher campuses and passed down to oakland

#

since oakland was my 3rd choice

#

home that isnt the case lol

wicked imp
#

😭 I’m a boy

primal sedge
#

Same

#

Lowk would go tho

wicked imp
#

Guess we must change our gender 😭

primal sedge
#

It's 80% female

#

so mainly all girls it seems

#

Well hold on

#

maybe im wrong

#

Google said it was an all girls college

wicked imp
#

I gave up on Northeastern cuz it’s too expensive tbh and Cal Poly would be comparable but I don’t think the price of NEU will justify me going there

Mills College at Northeastern University in Oakland, California is part of Northeastern University's global university system. Mills College was founded as the Young Ladies Seminary in 1852 in Benicia, California; it was relocated to Oakland in 1871 and became the first women's college west of the Rockies

primal sedge
#

But I got into RIT

#

which I'd attend over NEU

#

so

#

I'm happy

wicked imp
#

cuz I got into Bristol first then ox later

primal sedge
#

Oxford ?

wicked imp
#

so it didn’t matter

primal sedge
#

Why arent u just going there

wicked imp
#

Yeah

primal sedge
#

isnt that the # uni in the world

wicked imp
primal sedge
#

lmfao

wicked imp
#

For me rankings are good but I just want to stay close to my aunt too and for tech I think the us would be better for me

#

like have u seen uk salaries

primal sedge
#

I have not

wicked imp
#

but I hope I get into a T20/Ivy 😭 deep down

wicked imp
#

One of my doctors graduated from Cambridge and came to work in the ME and just didn’t return to the uk ever

#

the salaries are so low for a lot of vocations and living expenses are high

trim edge
wicked imp
# primal sedge Oof

I would still go for the name and maybe do a masters in the US but I’ll have to do a uk BSc+MS but I’m basically waiting for the T20 results this month to finalize my decisions

verbal helm
#

how good is neu for public health? or biz admin

wicked imp
#

I got a lot of info and insight into mine

#

from the teaching to internships and to the admin organization

primal sedge
#

Tell any mfer in the US u attended Oxford and ur set lol

wicked imp
#

and they came to teach here in some school in the Middle East

#

I think the issue is if ur international the us is so hard to break into

#

Without STEM OPT authorization

wicked imp
#

but if I get into Yale

#

I’d love to go

primal sedge
#

Yeah

#

Oxford undergrad is amazing tho

wicked imp
#

hopefully

wicked imp
#

I also think I can do a study abroad at oxford

#

With Harvard?

#

One of my friends on LinkedIn did that

#

but I’m unsure

primal sedge
#

That’d be cool

wicked imp
primal sedge
#

As of rn I’m going to RIT 😂 which yk isn’t bad but I’d like to go elsewhere

#

(I’ve only got one acceptance)

wicked imp
#

I’m vouching for u

primal sedge
#

🙏

wicked imp
#

idk why I was that crazy

#

but it’s just cuz of a lot of a2c or chanceme threads

#

so when I got into my first acceptance Bristol even tho I didn’t know much about it (as an intl) I was so happy

primal sedge
#

I’m happy with RIT

#

I’ve gotten 2 waitlists and a deferral prior so

#

Yk

#

I’m not upset by any means

wicked imp
wicked imp
#

twilit hinge
twilit hinge
#

Cause if its not that significant then neu would sound better in terms of ur preference

round wyvern

butmy parents are paying

round wyvern
#

hey completing terms of admission is not comitting if i dont put the deposit right

prime gale
#

In

#

I dont think that meant im commiting

round wyvern
#

i mean you can withdraw if you get somewhere better

#

but deposit is committing lol

prime gale
#

What are they gonna do

#

I jus wont pay second one and send email i withdrawl

round wyvern
#

nothing but you'll lose the first deposit

round wyvern
prime gale
#

Yea thats the sacrifice i took

round wyvern
#

yeah

#

so you did commit

prime gale
#

Ig

round wyvern
#

that doesn tmean you cant withdraw

prime gale
#

I guess

#

Then if thats committing u should committ

#

Its not that deep cuz u can get outa it

#

If moneys a concern, as long as ur willing to go anywhere i suppsoe

round wyvern
twilit hinge
#

U can get out of commit if ur not ed quite easily

#

U just dont get ur deposit refund back

trim edge
#

deposit isnt cheap 😴😴

#

if i alr spent that money id just stay

empty wing
#

U committed?

trim edge
#

not yet

#

or not officiall

#

but im prob gonna go to nu

Is Boston AR a lot lower than like nuin and stuff

trim edge
#

theres no acceptance rate for program/campuses

prime gale
#

Its speculated yes but noone knows for sure

#

But we are gonna go with no

empty wing
#

Pretty sure on Reddit someone said it’s 7% for all 3 campuses

strong abyss

i think boston is probably significantly lower

frank warren

Umass Amherst honors or neu honors for CS

maiden fiber
#

uma

strong abyss
#

i could be wrong but my source is also reddit lol

twilit hinge
frank warren
frank warren
twilit hinge
#

I think uma is more reputable for cs than neu

#

I think it depends on what u want

#

cause uma is def more traditional college compared to neu

maiden fiber
#

cus uma is ranked like 20 for cs and neu cs is not even like competitive

twilit hinge
#

but neu has co-ops

maiden fiber
#

uma is putting in like millions of dollars into their cs program they’re getting a new building too i think

#

also #1 dining 😍😍

twilit hinge
#

ong that food is amazing

verbal helm
twilit hinge
#

uh nah

twilit hinge
#

I think it might be major wise

#

or like school

#

I didnt get anything : (

#

wait a min @maiden fiber werent u in the neu server why u leave?

simple lantern
#

one of my uma friends

#

send me his food

twilit hinge

wtf is my major just doodoo

desert tree
twilit hinge
#

cs

desert tree
#

oh damn same

trim edge
#

like t20-30 for cs

#

and its one of the top schools in terms of professors and research for cs

blazing scaffold
#

lowkey people hate on neu too much

trim edge
#

i agree

blazing scaffold
#

gauranteed job placement through co-op program is really good

trim edge
#

i think neu is way better than what most people say

maiden fiber
#

id disagree

#

rankings may say theyre t30 but ppl r admitted into the school, not specifically the majors

#

i know ppl who've gotten into neu cs with like literally no cs ecs or anything even related

#

u get into the school, u get the major u want

trim edge
#

i have an assosciates degree in cs

#

and thats about it

#

the types of people admitted into the program doesn't have a significant impact on how the school is ranked

#

the curriculum, post grad job opportunity, job preparedness, professors and faculty, and research in the field have a far greater impact on the rankings rather than the types of students

twilit hinge
#

Yea i had barely any cs related activities, prob only one

blazing scaffold
#

i got into neu for cs but im leaning towards uva tho

twilit hinge
#

Ofc neu cs curiucclum isn't the top of the top, but it's strong enough to prepare a student that also is self learning on the side

#

as long as a student is willing to learn and know how to apply their learning from classes to projects pretty much ur ready, which with coop is a perfect opportunity

twilit hinge
maiden fiber
#

neu cs isnt bad im just saying uma cs is more reputable and overall just better

trim edge
blazing scaffold
#

i also got an almost full ride for uconn + honors so that is also an option

trim edge
#

from what ive heard from people in the industry name recognition of a school> cs rankings

blazing scaffold
#

24k/yr scholarship and tuition in state is 17k per year iirc

twilit hinge
#

uma cs program is more stronger

twilit hinge
trim edge
#

why?

twilit hinge
#

thats an awesome deal

maiden fiber
#

northeastern is not as prestigious as u think it is

#

the name isnt gonna get u that far

blazing scaffold
twilit hinge
#

oh

#

Tbh I never really thought much about name

#

just went with the one that aligned with my industrial focus

maiden fiber
#

and besides unless u go to like a t20 school the name doesnt rlly matter for cs

twilit hinge
#

^^

maiden fiber
#

more abt internships and skills

twilit hinge
#

Usually school name helps at new graduate level

#

but like after experience beats ofc

frank warren

since co op

trim edge
twilit hinge
trim edge
#

it all depedns on what youre looking for me

but for experience yea neu prob beats out cause of the time commitment

for me i want lots of work experience and do undergrad research

frank warren
#

and bostonnnn

trim edge

for that reason neu is perfect

twilit hinge
frank warren
#

and the honors kids only have good things to say

twilit hinge
#

also ur honors so u get this bigger dorm in east village

frank warren
#

yess its so pretty

twilit hinge
#

its a lil far from the rest of the dorms but worth the walk

frank warren
maiden fiber
#

if u want reasons to not go to neu its overcrowded, literally no where to study, housing crisis, and the T is always down 🤭 and the food isnt that great either

maiden fiber
#

mbta

#

train

frank warren
#

idc about food tbh as long as its healthy

#

nowhere to study??

some are prob better than others

from what ive seen it looks good

or at least better than most dining at other schools

would northeastern theoretically reduce class size this year? to solve overcrowding

more prestigious too if you care about that

if it’s cheaper it’s a no brained
