    yup, there's no place in education, to be writing code on paper

    it's utterly dumb and accomplishes literally nothing, and it is in no way connected to any real world scenario

    arin

      i still write my shit in gedit and i have no idea how i made it through first year
      but i agree, programming on paper is cancer and getting minus points for ;'s or whatever sounds pretty retarded even for me

        any book recommendations for (hidden) markov models?

          any book recommendations for (hidden) markov models?

          You don't need a book, just watch a few videos on it then google the specifics.

          faw

            what about bayesian networks, markov processes (i assume thats part of markov models), kalman filters, dynamic bayesian networks, fuzzy logic

            Riguma Borusu

              my "learning" in uni boiled down to skimming over the slides we got, then googling things I need to know more about

              I never read a single book throughout the years and sometimes I even just straight up send people videos when they ask for more information or explanations, because if they can't understand it from the video, they sure as hell won't understand when I explain it (in more or less the same way).

                  god bless indians explaining stuff on yt

                  A teacher @ uni:
                  "hey guys you gotta learn this math concept for the next exam but not only is it not explained in the literature we told you to use, we are also not going to do it in class"

                  An Indian youtuber:
                  "me from india me tell you all also me good person"

                  I really owe those people a lot because without them I couldn't have passed some exams.

                  faw

                    so just google it lol?

                    im kinda afraid it wont suffice (or googling will just return a shitton of shit to learn); i won't have time studying each of these "on the go" unless they're really not deep at all, id rather prepare starting from now

                    Riguma Borusu

                      if you want to learn shit and finish up exams, learning how to effectively google and learn stuff that way will actually be a really good skill.

                      Unless you've got amazing professors, you really aren't going to learn much @ uni and that's the sad reality of things. In my case, I have basically no attention span so I couldn't learn even from good teachers.

                      Even after you're done with studies, being able to find the knowledge you need IN THE DEPTH YOU NEED (super important) will be a great skill!

                          linear algebra exam results

                          out of 330 ppl who took the exam the best guy got a b-, and he's the only one. n K. means the amount of ppl that have grade x, starting (in this graph) from 2.3 (b-) in 0.3-0.4 steps (c+ etc. obviously)

                          76% failed

                          arin

                            1. linear algebra because it's not hard

                              I passed linear algebra really easily tho. I just googled a lot of concepts that showed up and learned them well. The course itself isn't that easy but can be managed in one semester.

                                  my OOP teacher was so unhappy about the class' quiz results that he gave us an ultimatum: if the average grade on the next quiz isnt above 50, everyone will get a C. though i fail to see how this is supposed to be bad :thinking:

                                      though I guess in the extreme case that everyone fails, median would be F actually

                                        man u know what i hate about uni? the first 3 weeks are a massive waste of time, the speed is super slow and u repeat/do the most basic shit

                                        and suddenly shit hits the fan, theres not a lot of time left before exams, lectures suddenly have 10x the content & harder content as well

                                        why not just start with a medium speed and keep that up FeelsWeirdMan
