What are /r/geegees' favorite Products & Services?

So I couldn't find that exact model, but the style of chair is called a "Fabric sled base office chair". I'm not sure if I found the cheapest ones available, so you might want to check Kajiji - but you can get one on amazon for like $130

On meetup.com and just choose the tech category. There's groups for all different "types" of programming. There's big ones like the Python Author's Group and Ottawa AI&ML smaller ones like the ReactJS meetups.

I'm taking PHY2100 in the winter. It looks like it's pretty permissive in terms of prerequisites, you only need one 1st-year Physics class.

However, it is taught by Prof. Stadnik and he hasn't had very favourable reviews on RateMyProfs, so I'm currently debating whether or not it was a wise choice.

I'm not a linguistic student but I suggest that you use the website rate my professors to see who are the good profs and who to avoid. In my experience the prof can make the world of a difference.

If you don't have java, go use https://ninite.com/ and download the Java 8 runtime.

Couple of options here:

1. Pay for a VPN, I pay for Private Internet Access so I can watch US Netflix and BBC iPlayer.
2. If you have an old PC, you can turn that into a VPN server.

If you do either of these, Steam should work. 1 is much easier to do (and you get US Netflix, which is nice), but 2 is free.

Why do you care what stranger on the internet do? Do you not have better things to care about? No, I have done homework for people in the courses though 😂. Very much less in depth that the full science courses. Probably the reason everyone who majors in those fields thinks Orgo is hard.

Hi All,

It's a super nice weekend out! If you want to play this weekend there’s a new app called Rankd - a Montreal based tennis matchmaker that automatically finds you a local opponent & court to play for free. We also have a tournament this month available to all players. Check it out!

There’s this on Amazon with some solid reviews, the table top seems decently thick compared to some other options (so it won’t be flimsy af)

I couldn’t find anything under $300 there but there’s a quite a lot of options under $400, they all have good pretty good reviews but I’d take it with a grain of salt in case they’re botted, just keep in mind that a lot of those desks have very thin tops so they won’t be sturdy (I’ve tried a few before, definitely wobbly sometimes)

You might be better off buying the desk frame and then getting like a thick cheap wooden counter top somewhere (and painting it if you want)

Also maybe look into getting a second hand desk on kijiji or eBay, I’ve also been looking for a stand up desk but I’ve been hesitant on which one to get

Also x2 check out r/standingdesk if you haven’t already there’s probably more threads and resources there

I think the molecular model is only used for one assignment (the stereochem assignment, where you have to add pictures of your 3D molecules). And you can use the molecular kit optionnaly during exams if you want to.

This is the one most students use

I'm on the waitlist for it... also: http://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tid=531595

Apparently she's an amazing prof and her is relatively easy.

Just some advice about side projects:

Do LeetCode problems and push them onto your GitHub. It'll at least show you're practicing.
https://leetcode.com

Secondly, check out Coursera or other platforms like it to learn something new. They often have a final project that you can implement, and you get something to add onto your resume too.

theres a couple 6th edition from this list!

There's this: bird courses, and then your other option is to look at profs. Considering the fact that a prof doesn't get associated with a class until shortly before the semester starts, I don't find this particularly helpful when choosing courses, but it is helpful in my mad scramble to drop classes with terrible professors once the semester has started.

Solid advice regarding trying to get Vida, doing assignments ASAP, and doing the lab work.

Also, this tool was very helpful for understanding what was happening behind the scenes.

Here’s his ECO1104 syllabus for summer 2020:

This book helped me find some multiple flaws in the way I use to study and in return, greatly improved my GPA. Don't be misguided by the title, these are tips for all field of studies (not just science and math).

I bought literal poster hanging tabs on amazon like this Command Picture Hanging Kit for Picture Frames and Posters, White, 38 Piece Kit - Hangs up to 15 Pictures https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01C6ZA3UI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_JC3EA8Q2YTGB9EK2GRM3

they didn’t leave any marks and worked well enough

I'm not in your program, so I can't give an exact answer; however, I recommend getting an SD upgrade like the one I've linked to store all your school files. Macbook have really terrible storage limits and this gives you a cheap boost that you can leave in permanently.

Especially needed if your classes will be mostly online.

I have a surface pro 7 and it’s great! The salesperson at Staples said that i5, 8G of RAM would be enough for anyone not in a tech or programming-heavy program (I’m in biochem). If you get a Surface I’d also recommend the paid version of Drawboard PDF - it’s not cheap but I’m really happy I got it and use it all the time (was pleasantly surprised that I could use the calibrate function to measure the chromatography plates in my orgo 1 lab data). I’d also recommend an extra monitor with a webcam for online classes/ exams, a printer if you like to have physical copies of your stuff, and, depending on your budget, a Surface Dock (Ethernet will be your best friend if you’re in res lol)

Edit: I got this case in pink and grey and like it a lot :)
