20:53:55 But it's cool neighborhood -- nice and quiet. 20:54:02 Roomies seem pretty cool so far. 20:54:05 It's way too early to tell though. 20:54:12 I hope its not as quite as mine. 20:54:18 It's going to be a while before I get fully settled in though. 20:54:25 about 500 people live in this complex and I've seen 8 so far. 20:54:38 The more quiet it is, the better. 20:54:47 Silence truely is golden. 20:55:13 kc5tja but sometimes It makes things awkward. 20:55:16 Two of my roomies are professional musicians, so I also get to listen to high-quality music for free. :) 20:55:25 heheheh. 20:55:27 what do they play?

But it's a good thing, because calc-II requires a lot of time to devote towards memorizing useless integration rules. :D 21:58:49 Calc-III is actually an easier class. 21:59:14 hello 21:59:21 so i hear 21:59:51 Calc III was the easiest of all the calc as I recall. 21:59:59 Yep. 22:00:17 Calc III si where they show you all the shortcuts you should have learned in Calc II. :) 22:00:20 I just read parts of a FFT book, and it was all about calc, man I need to refesh. 22:00:51 15 years without using Calc, and now I need it to understand the FFT stuff I want to learn. 22:01:17 --- quit: Frek (Read error: 111 (Connection refused)) 22:02:25 Yeah. 22:02:32 I took Calcs 1-3 about 11 years ago. 22:02:34 I'm refreshing too. 22:02:48 Although, this time, I'm going for a Physics degree instead of an electrical engineering degree. 22:37:14 YAY! Done with my homework. 22:37:16 For this week at least. 22:37:45 do you attend class? 22:37:48 lectures 22:37:55 Absolutely. 22:38:50 It's silly not to, in my opinion, unless you have a doggone good reason (e.g., your house really is on fire, or your dog ate your little brother, not his homework, etc.) 22:40:30 huh? 22:40:32 I found many reasons not to 22:40:39 I *hate* attending classes :D 22:41:17 I still do pretty darned well for my bad behavior :) 22:42:02 then again, my courses are easy and I read as much as I can. 22:42:21 I find lecturers a good place to draw pictures 22:42:47 lectures even, I doubt that lecturers would apprectiate being drawn upon 22:42:55 :) 22:42:58 --- join: Serg_Penguin (Serg_Pengu@212.34.52.140) joined #forth 22:43:02 fridge I like to interact with the profs. 22:43:02 hi ! 22:43:10 if i can, it keeps me very interested. 22:43:37 i got my server burned ;((((( now raising another one feverly 22:43:44 :) 22:51:38 I find lectures are actually a good place to, say, do something really stupid, like ask for assistance on the homework problems you had difficulties with. 22:52:35 And, yes, interacting with the professors is always a bonus. Keep your eyes and ears open, and you'll learn things that aren't normally taught in the class, and not always on the class' subject either. 22:53:44 kc5tja thats true. 22:54:14 if one cheats w/ tasks, for what da hell does he learning ???? 22:54:57 i cheated only in subjects i did not ever wanted to know - like literatore or history, coz it's propaganda and brainwash 22:55:23 Serg_Penguin but you have to remember that a lot of people don't go to school to learn. they go specifically to get 'a degree' 22:55:40 whatever they do to get it, thats what they do. 22:56:03 if they have to copy essays from the net to get it, thats what they'll do especially if they can get away with it. 22:56:11 And i"ve seen it done so many times its not even funny. 22:57:20 Serg_Penguin propganda/brainwash there is still stuff to be learnt. 22:57:36 a lot of universities got pulled up for plagiarism here 22:57:43 they had independant auditing I think 22:58:02 Serg_Penguin I cheated once ... I was 10 or 11. I've never bothered to cheat since. 22:58:14 and for professors passing students who pay fees up front 22:58:15 if even it means I get a bad grade for not finishing on time, I don't care. 22:58:25 even when they failed the coursework 22:58:31 fridge really? 22:58:35 yes 22:58:53 because full fee paying international students pay for the research 22:59:00 and of course people want more research $ 22:59:07 so they push them through like cattle 22:59:30 the important thing is to learn how to read, write, think, read, write, think. Logically, critically, systematicaly (as in systems theory), analytically. 22:59:31 lowering the standards needed to pass 23:00:02 fridge but there are few short term economic incentives not to! 23:00:04 a friend of mine at university in melbourne told me that one of his lecturers got replaced because he refused to pass failing students 23:00:33 well failing 'fee paying' students 23:00:40 not on government HECS 23:01:51 HELL ! 23:01:56 do you know what HECS is? I'm not sure if there are similar systems everywhere else, basically .gov keeps a tally of fees and when you graduate and get a nice job paying big $$$ the government recoups the money then through higher taxes 23:03:35 fridge: Yes, they're called "Government Student Loans" here in America. 23:03:41 And that's if you can qualify for them. 23:05:46 * kc5tja is pissed; I have a nice new room with which to erect a decent-sized antenna in, and I can't do it because I don't have a screwdriver to wire the power supply to the ham radio to use it with. :) 23:08:47 * Serg_Penguin screwed my recent computer w/ a table knife 23:09:06 I just got offered an amiga 2000 for free 23:09:14 now to think of a use for it 23:09:47 Hey, that's cool. :) 23:09:51 * kc5tja still has his Amiga 500. 23:10:01 yeah ! would i get one , i'll find a use, sure ;)) 23:11:45 * Robert too. 23:11:51 Use?
