If so, in what way. Just trying to educate myself on the issue in the modern era. Answers from Tamils would be especially interesting to hear.

I have an internship in the South Bay and just want a place to stay Mon Night - Thursday Night. I honestly just need a couch lol. Where can I find rooms available for low rent? I'll only be staying until January.

I'm down to deadass just rent a couch for $400/month :/ Just needs to be close to CalTrain.

I've noticed EECS 127 waitlist always gets cleared in the spring so I'm not too focused about getting off the waitlist this semester.

Is there any reason to prefer Sojoudi over Ranade? I heard Ranade teaches the course with more useful concepts and that Sojoudi's version isn't as useful.

edit: too many people have misread this but just read the post properly lmao. TLDR: It’s dystopian that other students behavior of recent past has made the profs feel it’s necessary to stop recording lectures. I'm not saying in-person instruction is bad.

Obviously a first world CS major problem. But has anyone else noticed the surge of profs who are choosing to NOT record on PURPOSE despite having the equipment and authority to do so. ex: EECS 126, CS C182, CS 180 etc.

Despite being in the modern world and having access to all the technology needed to make learning seamless, teachers still choose to not use it. Not because they're sadistic or want to torture their students, but because there's multiple semesters of empirical data that definitively show students choose not to come to lecture, not to follow the lectures online, cheat on HW and fail their exams ...

It deconstructs the notion that we're limited by technology. We're limited by our own internal failures as dopamine addicted monkeys.

We'd rather fail and cheat for the high instead of actually choosing to learn. Teachers have effectively chosen to force us to "work" for our knowledge by coming in person, doing multiple quizzes etc. like we're in high school. These policies are effectively a measure to make us "return to monke" in order to save us from ourselves

End of my rant. This isn't a criticism against the profs btw. You can't even really blame them. They're just doing what they see best for the students.

edit 2: holy shit if you're going to leave a comment about how this is an iPad-kid-esque post, can you please re-read the whole post in it's entirety and think critically. If you still need help, read through the comment section. Some of y'all seriously lack criticial thinking skills and it's showing - especially when said post is about lacking critical thinking skills.

Are any of you pro India at all? Not even pro BJP/Modi but do you at least see India as a union an entity you have an affinity with? Or do all of you just think India is an oppressor state for Punjab?

If so, how do you feel about being the minority. How do you feel about every Vaisakhi parade being spoiled with Khalistani flags. It's almost suffocating to have it stuffed down my throat all the time. I'm sure there are Sikhs from India who are proud Indians that come to the west and feel weird about it.
