<0> logic, modeling, thats what its all about here
<0> but less focus on calculus
<0> infact in my opinion lacking
<1> imperial does sound the most attractive option from a lifestyle point of view. Close enough to my social life here to actually still participate
<1> backwards from us. I'd say we lacked discreet, with a calculus focus
<1> ah well. all evens out in the end
<0> hehe
<0> yes
<1> by Phd level, you've taught yourself more than you've been taught
<0> agreed
<0> its just easier when they force you to study it :)
<1> I know I have. Most of my memorable mathematics experiences have been those I've taught myself, kicked off by something else we were taught
<1> oh yes
<1> remember started a probability exercise, then went off tangentially proving the efficency of a binary error correction scheme via probability axioms
<0> anyway, its my brothers 18th birthday on the 19th, what laptop should I get him?
<1> or trying to prove some intergration theorem, and wasting time calculating O(1) methods of series summation
<0> not mac...
<1> not mac? doh. otherwise, I'd highly recommend the ibook
<0> hehe
<1> depends if you want a "portable" laptop, or a desktop replacement
<1> you can't beat the Dells for price
<1> and they do work
<1> but portable is not what I've call the cheaper models. nor quiet
<0> hmm, im happy with my asus, it was about the same price as dells
<0> when I bought it
<1> if you can afford it, the macbook pro :) Now with windows xp, if you're insane
<0> hehe
<0> that means you can install all the windows crap on it too?
<1> yup.
<1> one sec
<0> and not interpretted?
<1> http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
<1> basically a dual boot Windows/OS X mac
<0> nice
<2> anyone knows a free exe shrinker ?
<1> you can also get VMs now, to run XP embedded in OS X
<1> (all on the intel macs, of course)
<1> but the cheapest macbook is 0, even with the student discounts
<0> macbook aint cheap...
<1> if you could have waited till june, the new intel ibooks should have shipped
<1> a lot of people seem to like the Sony Vaios. They do have kick *** screens
<0> hmm
<0> my gf has the macbook
<0> im gonna ask her if its worth it
<0> not as programmer, but just as a social science student :)
<1> damn rich Imperial students! :)
<0> no I said social science
<1> they are fun to play with. fast as hell, messed around with one in the apple store
<0> :)
<1> oh. where's she? Kings?
<0> the LSE
<1> ah, neat
<0> Imperial doesnt have girls
<0> and if they do, its hard to tell if they really are girls
<0> actually thats a lie, they arent all bad looking
<1> lol
<0> but not as good looking as non engineering people
<1> I was actually shocked how many women take maths. more than half, some of them actually really cute
<1> I captured one for a few months, but she slipped away. damn women
<0> haha
<0> so volatile
<1> no matter. plenty of others to choose from
<0> agreed
<1> an exam times are rolling around, and I'm one of a handful who actually grok the theoretical analysis course. so some "personal tutoring" might be in order
<0> hehe
<1> I won't mention how easy the exam will be, based on past papers. Until afterwards :)
<0> yea...
<0> my exams wont be easy this year
<1> I'd prefer them to be harder, personally. never feels like an achivement to get high marks on an easy exam
<1> I'd rather get "good" marks on a hard exam than "excellent" marks on an easy one
<0> i prefer not to get any exams
<1> hence the phd ;)
<0> yes
<0> :)
<0> I have a 15% buffer to get a 2.1 so im kinda relaxed about that
<1> best I can tell, my friends in their first year of phd have done...nothing
<0> lol
<1> you'll do fine, I'm sure
<0> yes, but its a pain...
<1> this year will probably be the hardest you'll ever do
<0> probably
<1> phds are intensive, but not really "hard" in the cl***ical sense
<0> agreed
<1> no huge pressure points
<0> The American government is planning a military strike on Iran, including bombing its nuclear reactor, according to an investigative report due to be published next week in The New Yorker magazine.
<0> talking about pressure points
<1> see, I have more sympathy with this sort of preemptive strike
<0> of course
<0> here there is a clear "why?"
<1> but they've lost so much international credability via Iraq, they might have some dipolmatic problems frm it
<0> hmm, iraq wasnt a good move. I still dont know the exact why...
<3> i got that Accelerated c++ book . but if i have questions can i shot it here , right ?
<1> you can
<0> ashe...
<4> I bet there are others here with that book, myself included
<5> France also has nuclear reactors
<5> I wonder when they are going to pre-empt France
<0> France hasnt threatened to destroy the belgian nation
<0> remember?
<5> they already invaded it
<0> not a good answer
<5> As well as a few dozen other african/asian/american nations
<0> none of them have currently said they would use it
<5> use what
<0> or that their goal is to eventually destroy it
<0> even your country of origin, pakistan hasnt said its aim is to burn india to the ground
<0> they have nukes nobody at the moment cares
<5> Actually the clown communication minister said that a few hundred times already on tv
<0> musharaf wouldnt say it
<0> ahmadinejad would, and has
<5> Even Mush would
<5> What does it matter. Its his minister saying so
<0> anyway I haven't heard about that minister so it got quickly silenced, which means the country isnt agreeing
<0> unlike Iran's comments
<5> hehehe
<5> Poor ignorant europeans
<0> by country I mean staff
<0> IRR: so you say that no body should care about what Iran's president says?
<0> and just let them acquire bombs?
<5> make
<0> what?
<5> busy with baby
<5> Anyway, nations with opposing ideologies are natural enemies. I leave out the judgement who is right and who isn't. America is worried about Muslim nations weapon acquiring technology that could hurt them or their friend Israel. Which is why they have attacked or continue to attack Libya, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq etc.
<6> hi all
<6> i have a problem with a template derived cl***
<7> Anything in particular that you are having problems with?
<6> i can't use the attribut of the base cl***
<8> hi, im a beginner to microsoft visual studio. to compile a basic app, i opened a win32 console app and loaded a .cpp source file (built in vs6) but when i click "debug" i get several "no symbols loaded" errors
<8> how do i fix that?
<8> "Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll', No symbols loaded." "Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\kernel32.dll', No symbols loaded." etc
<9> load the symbols (but theres not a lot of point) and its not an error
<9> and upgrade to vc8 while you are at it
<8> how do i load the symbols? and what is it?
<8> okay
<0> oooohh, soomeeewheree.... oveeerrr the raaaainnnbow
<8> you mean VS8?
<9> call it what you want
<10> GodsTyro: paste the error in google
<10> you have to set debug mode etc
<10> in your project options
<9> not for ntdll.dll
<8> ah okay
<8> cowmoo: it seems like my system is missing the symbol packages necessary for debugging in VC5, so i'm going to install that and see what happens
<10> VC5? er
<8> visual studio 2005?
<10> oh
<10> that's VC8
<8> oy
<8> sorry :-p
<9> you really do not need the symbols for normal work
<8> my basic console apps in win32 give several 'no symbols loaded' errors
