    Semester 1 Chatter Thread (2010)

    Yup that's the one. Databases 2 also looked pretty interesting to me (info3404/3504). There's also that ELEC5619 course (where you use spring and hibernate?) which apparently has good content for web development but isn't very well managed/executed as a course. But i think i need to do a 3rd...

    He's pretty laid back. i don't think he'll mind if you miss those, but he comes to every tute though (when i did DSP anyway).

    Beep Test...

    marathon runners won't necessarily get the best score. It's measuring your VO2 max. I think if you finish the tape you end up running 4-4500 metres in around 20-22 minutes. The test also has different distance variants. The most common is 20m but some schools and sports organizations do it...

    The Official NRL Thread

    Souths should have a good year with the forwards they have. Imagine the likes of Dave Taylor, Roy Asotasi and Sam Burgess running off Sutton, Sandow and Luke. If they can fire, i'm thinking top 4 contenders for sure.

    question about access card & USU

    Yeah most of them need an access card. A few don't need one though. Last year the Red Cross and St John Ambulance didn't need one.

    Woah wtf?

    From what i've seen and heard during my work experience, the demand of engineers in Australia at the moment are in the more 'traditional' areas: electrical (power), mechanical and some civil areas where most of the baby boomer engineers are looking to retire. Software engineers are in mild...

    Master of Professional Engineering

    that would be a wise choice. i haven't done the numbers, but you might as well get them out of the way. If you're just doing the physics major then you should have a few free electives left at the end anyway (well by free i mean subjects from either EIE or the science faculty), but you'll be...

    Parental expectations...

    Meh my parents are asian but they were just happy that i went to uni. Not many of my cousins and relatives have gone to uni/haven't gone to uni yet, so i guess there wasn't much 'family' pressure.

    Master of Professional Engineering

    M.E. is only a year long (48 cp) whilst MPE is longer (because you have to do the foundational subjects first). And what jb_nc said pretty much. Get your B.E. by transferring some subjects from your B.Sc and i think you can get it on HECS (actually, i'm not sure how many degrees HECS will...

    What were Muse thinking?

    I listened through the Resistance a couple of times, the first few tracks hold my interest but the rest of the album is...well different. It's quite good musically but it's not the sort of thing i'd play in my car or have on my mp3 player if you know what i mean. I think Matt Bellamy was going...

    B computer science and technology @ usyd question

    I've done the course before. It's primarily based on circuit theory, aimed more at the computer/electrical/telecom engineers. Unless you plan to focus on embedded systems or you have a keen interest in circuit theory, i would not recommend taking it. Take INFO1003 instead if you are looking...
