    general UNSW chit-chat

    did you ever consider that people actually do this? then when they get to level 9 they are so sweaty and stinky and puffed that they say "screw this, im taking the lift back down" weird, no?

    In your opinion, will a CompSci double degree make me more employable in ElecEng?

    well I think its just a matter of what you like more and what do you want to do? are you enjoying Comp courses over Elec courses? do you want to work with computers (more than a standard ElecEng) when you finish? so basically whats the motivation? (do not that co-ops dont have much...

    its actually called the pigeonhole principle, since 'theory' means it has no proof. like string theory

    The Thread for ALL FIRST YEAR QUESTIONS.

    sounds logical. would be a little odd for someone to get through their entire program with 10+ PC's. although I would think that after getting 1 or 2, you would be somewhat motivated to try a little harder next time

    Which subject is more "prestigious" - English Extension 2 or Mathematics Extension 2?

    Re: Which subject is more "prestigious" - English Extension 2 or Mathematics Extensio Id say this is a misconeption. I had a look at some band E1 and E2 EE2 major works and was very suprised by the extreme lack of skill. I would agree that could write a major work, but writing a good one...

    Do you like maths?

    isnt the 2u course just pure application? so if you know the formula required, you should be fine

    Fantasy novels

    the potter series leans more towards magic realism than fantasy imo. the concept of a fantasy series that doesnt have its own unique world doesnt sit well with me. u-borat, u seem to be a buff on the subject. I read this book, forging of the darksword, a couple years back. about all I...

    Do you like maths?

    pffff. as if. I think you meant to say "English is about whoever can make up random but relavent bs in an exam is the best." and maths is cool. high school maths is pretty boring, all you are really taught is application of stuff. things like Newtons method for approximating roots is about...

    Re: Question about peoples' inability to negotiate a footpath without getting in fron tap the right shoulder of the person to your right. when they stop and look behind, a nice gap will open up for you to walk through. walking on the left: I've always done this but there are always people...

    Football - Summer Transfers

    despite that little ":P" Id say the chances of something like this happening are high. just imagine the fan reaction if ronaldo doesnt play the first game lol. *cough* someone remind me why Ronaldo wants to sign for them again?

    Curve sketching

    you could always find t in terms of x/y and then substitute into y/x to get a cartesian equation which you would be more familiar with. in this case you should get t = x^1/2. so subbing into y you should get sqrt x's and therefore the graph only exists to the right of the y axis. and graph...

    No more 100's; A conspiracy?

    oh, no doubt 100 sounds good. but you are still thinking of the UAI in terms of a mark. Getting 100% in a test or exam is excellent. but getting a rank of 100 is nothing special. I'll also put it this way. when you get your UAI will you say "What mark did you get?" to other people? most...

    Football - Summer Transfers

    never met the guy, but I wouldnt describe Ronaldo as a humble individual. footballer of the year + 80 mil transfer in his bio definately wont help. we'll see how things pan out though.

    No more 100's; A conspiracy?

    anyone else even notice that the BoS has got a really screwed up ranking system? The smartest people in the state get a UAI rank of 100, while slightly dumber people get ranks of 98 and 99. anyone else see the stupidity in this "rank" system??? surely the logical thing would be to have the...

    A team of world class players =/= a world class team. someone said earlier that the team will have too much ego now and I gotta agree. cant see the next year going smoothly for them

    John Boyle's novel, 'The Boy in Striped Pyjamas'

    I was given it as a gift. Got a few chapters into the book. They just got to the house (forgot the name of it) and they peeked out the window and start discussing what they saw. I never continued reading after that. book just didnt catch me, I wasnt really that interested in what was going on...
