AY2021/22 Semester 1 Module Ramblings

 16/02/22 The only thing that can be found here is scat and toilet jokes, really.  CS2102 Database Systems Expected Grade: A-/A Actual Grade: A- Was this my first time working in a project group with JL? Interesting experience. But yea shes responsible so that’s a good thing.   I think i was the week link in the group lol, a few days before submission they were literally helping me to debug my part of the code. But i did take what was supposed to be the hardest part, so theres that. I was really excited to take this module after hearing about normalisation and stuff during internship. But reality is often disappointing. Also, relational algebra is some tough shit. I think i got the hang of sequel but for a while it was literally greek to me. CS2106 Introduction to Operating Systems Expected Grade: W Actual Grade: W I dropped this because i realised i could. Was a bad decision on hindsight. But whats done is done, i guess. The labs were tough, but i heard that those whic

To Date an NPC

 14/02/22   11 Feb 2022: I’ve been suffering hella procrastination and I have a 15% CA due in like less than a quarter of a day, which I havent even started drafting yet. And I don’t know what I plan to do but definitelly starting is a difficult task so I thought I might just write a short one here. You know how in relationships theres the male role and the female role. The male role is supposed to be the voice of reason, the breadwinner, etc. Whereas the female role is supposed to be caring… and basically being caring AF. Oftentimes i imagine such a scene: Someone points a microphone at my boyf and asks him: Interviewer: “So, how does it feel like dating an NPC?” And in these daydreams, I don’t have his reply. I don’t know who the interviewer is, I can’t imagine anyone else asking him this question. It seems like I am the interviewer, but it doesn’t make sense for me to ask my own boyf what it feels like to be dating me. I am a non player character, I have no personali

Devices of Questionable Ethics #1 and #2

04/02/21 #1 A programmable circuit connected to a button, 7-segment display, and buzzer, small enough to be placed inside an oral thermometer. And in fact, is meant to be placed inside an oral thermometer. When pressed once, the 7-segment display lights up and starts displaying an ascending sequence of numbers with one decimal place. After 5 seconds, it beeps and shows a random value greater than 35.0 and lesser than 37.5. The seed for the pseudorandom number generator is controlled by the potential difference of the battery. When pressed twice in quick succession (within 0.5 seconds), the 7-segment display lights up and starts displaying an ascending sequence of numbers with one decimal place. After 5 seconds, it beeps and shows a random value greater than 37.7 and lesser than 42.0. The seed for the pseudorandom number generator is controlled by the potential difference of the battery. Use case: perhaps say maybe in the occurrence that you happen to live in a police state an
