Is it possible to do this without using the right click at all?
Now I can use a highly efficient amount of clicks while browsing dank memes.
Click and drag the link to somewhere on the tab bar. It works in Firefox anyway.
Anyhows, I started doing something horrible. I've begun learning Portuguese. Or rather, I'm reading this book in Portuguese a Brazilian prof. gave me, but learning some Portuguese will be an unfortunate side effect.
Guess I'm going to have to guess what the scratched numbers are (64 or 256 possible outcomes, depending on how you count).
I began doing 4 courses, but without being forced to follow a real schedule I ended up getting messy and instead decided to do it summer style (one intensive course), I did this one first since it's the one I like more. I was supposed to do it in a month, but I got sloppy. I'll need better disciple from now on.
Geometry didn't prepare me for this. I struggled with number and graph theory, although I think I understand them well now. Not so much counting sets. Probability is supposedly the harder one, but I found it easier than the rest, not that I don't find it trippy, what with most exercises being some counter-intuitive thing.
Although I struggled at times, the grading is lenient and thus getting a passing grade wasn't hard (a grade above 50% (D or above) is a passing grade, right?), though there's the obvious issue that I'm grading myself and miscellaneous stuff such that I didn't even know recitations were graded until well into it, and I'm guessing that ends up giving me a higher grade, but on the other hand there was supposed to be a grade re-normalization that obviously doesn't apply to me, so maybe that kinda makes up for it. I didn't do as well in the final as I had hoped, though.
Anyhows, I once thought that most things of interest you could do discretely you could do better and cleanlier continuously. With all the discrete-math-related fields I've learned about and how to apply their stuff, I think I've found a newfound respect for discrete math.
Overall I really, really liked this course. I hope there's more like this.
Besides the course itself, I've noticed that the pensum is much more flexible than ours (we only require 3 electives, with everything clearly delineated on a per-semester basis). Fortunately since I already went through this I get to enjoy that freedom without getting lost. On the other hand I've always noticed how there's very little interaction between prof. and students during lectures, but I presume that has to do with these things being made for YouTube. Also I've had trouble with not being able to just walk into the library and ask classmates stuff, or if necessary, the prof.
Also, whenever
I see a prof. running out of space in a black/whiteboard I get a déjà
vu thing about a pharmacy. I dunno what it is but I've had it for years
and it's weird.
And it's weird that I feel the need to talk about this when I didn't feel the same about real-life courses. I guess that's one of the things about online
Anyhows, on to Introduction to Electrical Engineering and Computer Science I.
You know, around here there's a joke that we're really behind the curve. Every Western country has had its share of terror bombings, crazy Muslim fanatics, whatever - and we? Nothing.

^ I've found out Yale university has a share of free online courses. Took one or another. Too bad I never quite get around to listen to it to the end.
