I'm a lazy git, so I'm only taking Discrete Mathematics, Differential Equations, and Programming in C. All late in the day, I don't pay money to get up before noon.
The first two were fun classes. C was dull and as far as programming languages go my least favorite I had to work with.
I eventually have to learn Java, for some reason >.>
Java's easier than C. Less pointer annoyances

CS or CE major?
CE, with a focus on programming.
I was guessing if it was one of those it'd be CE due to the Diff Eq. That's what I went for. Same with the programming focus. CS that switched to CE.
I started off in CE, I was told that it wasn't much harder than CS so I didn't see a reason not to.
I was told so after I started then switched becaude of thst. Of course I was told by my super tough physics teacher so I'm not sure I should have believed him. I certainly found the EE parts more tedious.
My mother is an electrical engineer. She may have overstated how easy some of this, but it is fairly easy.
It isn't too bad and it complements some CS stuff pretty well. I just had no interest in circuits and there was a lot.
I still have to take those classes. Some people in my DM class are saying the notes are practically the same for digital circuits.
Huh. I never saw DM as having much overlap. DE for sure.

DM is more relevant to CS. Unless you mixed those up? IIRC DM is required for CS but not EE and DE is required for EE but not CS

Edit: Oh wait digital. So truth tables and shit. I liked that part.

I am not sure anymore. Mostly my mind has blanked on what DE is?

EDIT to EDIT: Yes, truth tables and logic.

EDIT to EDIT: Yes, truth tables and logic.
DE deals with solving... well differential equations. Stuff like Laplace transforms, turning equations into stuff easier to work with, came up IIRC doing an EE class. That or it was at least tangentially related because of Fourier transforms.

But digital, yeah that would relate to DM, at least in regards to logic. Was important for CS too due to estimating run time of algorithms and some other things.

You done physics yet btw?

But yes, I've taken all my physics courses.

Usually I hear people cut it down to Diff E Q when speaking irl but I was lazy.

Physics was pretty cool. Relativity and the quantum stuff was the best.

Damn UCSD for tossing that in then. Though like I said I liked it. It did seem very not relevant though.

I am not sure anymore. Mostly my mind has blanked on what DE is?

EDIT to EDIT: Yes, truth tables and logic.
DE deals with solving... well differential equations. Stuff like Laplace transforms, turning equations into stuff easier to work with, came up IIRC doing an EE class. That or it was at least tangentially related because of Fourier transforms.

But digital, yeah that would relate to DM, at least in regards to logic. Was important for CS too due to estimating run time of algorithms and some other things.

You done physics yet btw?
Oh yeah, diffeq. I hadn't parsed the acronym :\
which makes me feel bad since I'm in it...

But yes, I've taken all my physics courses.
Usually I hear people cut it down to Diff E Q when speaking irl but I was lazy.

Physics was pretty cool. Relativity and the quantum stuff was the best.
I didn't have to get that fancy. Just 2 semesters of physics with labs.
Damn UCSD for tossing that in then. Though like I said I liked it. It did seem very not relevant though.
See, UHCL just turns people out for NASA, it's very no frills.
Ooh. Heading to NASA? That sounds cool.
Oh hell no, I'm too greedy to go on a government salary. However this is one of the better schools around here without paying "new car" levels of tuition.
Ahhhh. Well that at least ought to be good for the school's rep and thus you when you get the better paying jobs.

UCSD wasn't too bad for in-state tuition and I didn't even have to move.

I'm a lazy git, so I'm only taking Discrete Mathematics, Differential Equations, and Programming in C. All late in the day, I don't pay money to get up before noon.
The first two were fun classes. C was dull and as far as programming languages go my least favorite I had to work with.
I eventually have to learn Java, for some reason >.>
Java's easier than C. Less pointer annoyances

CS or CE major?
CE, with a focus on programming.
I was guessing if it was one of those it'd be CE due to the Diff Eq. That's what I went for. Same with the programming focus. CS that switched to CE.
I started off in CE, I was told that it wasn't much harder than CS so I didn't see a reason not to.
I was told so after I started then switched becaude of thst. Of course I was told by my super tough physics teacher so I'm not sure I should have believed him. I certainly found the EE parts more tedious.
My mother is an electrical engineer. She may have overstated how easy some of this, but it is fairly easy.
It isn't too bad and it complements some CS stuff pretty well. I just had no interest in circuits and there was a lot.
I still have to take those classes. Some people in my DM class are saying the notes are practically the same for digital circuits.
Huh. I never saw DM as having much overlap. DE for sure.

DM is more relevant to CS. Unless you mixed those up? IIRC DM is required for CS but not EE and DE is required for EE but not CS

That was my thinking. That and the fact that I already lived down the street from the university.

If I had real ambition (and money), I'd be going to Rice. Then again, I don't know if they offer CE.

History of the Documentary
History of England Tudor-Stuart Times
Intro to Animation
Writing for Animation from 7PM to goddamn 10PM at night.

I really hope I can skip the Documentary one in order to actually attend the England one.

I'm working on a few things actually. Initially, it started off on learning how to set up a specialized email server. Right now I'm working on parsing emails. Eventually, I'll have to start making that parser "smart" enough to "teach itself" how to parse things it has never seen before. That last part is going to be, by far, the hardest part of my research. I do have to say I'm really excited to see if I can pull it off before the research ends, especially since I still have to allocate some of my time to do things manually until then.
I can safely say I know next to nothing about email servers and parsing. What exactly are you trying to teach it to recognize?

Most of it is stuff relevant to inventory management. One example would be if someone sent an email with a list of items they just bought and we need to store all of that in a database. However, due to various ways in which that data can be presented, it's possible that the user will send us something in a format we haven't accounted for, so we'd hope the program can figure out how to solve that. There's a lot more to it than that, but that is just a simple basis.
