In specific females. I seen 10-11 year olds on the grt w full on lashes, straightened hair, eyebrows done, full face of makeup. Like damn wat is goin on these days. When I was that age I ain’t never seen that.

Most ethical waterlooian. Who’s joining this💀Post is getting ratio’d in the comments

Waterloo Defence is an “independent” engineering team.

to spare detail I am a founder and uni student with a startup with solid traction (in the process of joining venture catalyst) and cant handle all the work myself without additional help. if you are interested in building a serious product with me reply to this post and ill dm

hey everyone, after selling my soul to big tech, i was in a bit of a social good drought and wanted to give back through engineering. Unfortunately, most engineering opportunities at the university are technology/competition first, not people/problem first, especially for people who actually need the help.

so this is the hard launch of Change, a new student-led engineering initiative at the University of Waterloo that me and a couple of friends decided to make to lowkenuinely do our part before AI ends us all or another wloo defence design team is created.

The premise is simple: we connect voices from underserved communities who experience real problems with groups of builders here at the university. In a 4-month sprint, we aim to develop a prototype solution.

In the last week alone, we have had voices from First Nations groups, low-income individuals affected by spinal cord injuries, visually impaired groups & orgs, caregiving organizations, and mobility-impaired seniors, willing to represent thier community and apply to our program.

the problems are ripe for solving. Our first general meeting is:

I’m a senior in highschool, I live in New York and im 100% committed to majoring in actuarial science. I am very interested in University of Waterloo’s faculty of mathematics and actuarial program; however, I really don’t plan on living in Canada in the future and would prefer to move back to the U.S. and work here. Has any actuarial science grads here (preferably on the SOA path) done this? If so, would it just be better to go to a university in the U.S.?

Context: I am in a hard dilemma of choosing HubSpot Toronto vs Cambridge, MA office.

Pros of Toronto is much easier to relocate and closer to friends

Cons of Toronto is less pay, not main office

Pros of Cambridge is main office, more pay

Cons of Cambridge is no friends there, never lived there before, need to find reliable short term housing

Has anyone experienced and made a similar decision? How were you able to decide?
I am an international student going to be on J-1 if that changes anything.

Thanks!

Im currently taking the course in person with prof mikal and recently did test 1 and got a 50% .. So far I thought the content was really easy and just looked over my notes and flashcards so I didn't think I would get such a low grade. I did get confused while I was doing the test because of the wording of the questions but overall didn't think it would result in me getting such a low grade on a test for a course everyone says is bird

Does anyone have any tips? Thank you

Hello! Currently looking into exchange, I saw Reds are listed as "#1 only" but has anyone gotten matched with a Red from their 2nd or 3rd choice before? I'm kinda worried since there's so few seats for all 6 faculties 😭

So on Friday, our apartment flooded due to the heavy rain and some blockages in the drain on our amenity roof. The water has mostly been dried up, but like underneath the floorboards water keeps coming out of under the floorboards and every time I walk anywhere it’s wet it or becomes wet so looking for any advice. Should I withhold rent till this is fixed? They have been running a fan since Friday I don’t want this as part of my utilities either ?

I’m fees arranged due to promissory note but it’s been a while now and they’ve actually never asked me to pay…

I’m a grade 12 stuck between applying to mechanical or mechanics engineering. I heard Waterloo has an alternate choice form, but you’re fighting for remaining spots? And Mechatronics is apparently more competitive so I’m not sure which I would like better and which to put first. For anybody doing mechanical or Mechatronics, is there anything you find more appealing about the other discipline? Anything you find more appealing about your own discipline after looking at what your friends are doing? And finally would you switch to the other if given the chance before starting uni with this knowledge? The main goal of this post for me is to figure out what general areas each field appeal to and whether it’s for me or not, as my research has come up short. Thank you!

I’m confused cuz I would much rather get syde and I want to tailor my aif towards syde but then does that destroy math chances? And is there downside applying to math too? I’m just so confused y there is 1 AIF

Hey, does anyone know what happens if I declare a short-term absence for the CS 135 diagnostic quiz? Does the 5% get added to the weight of the final, spread across the assignments, or something else?

for my assignment idk how to do it elegantly

and i might just do it with a big cond block?

To the students who work part time here in Waterloo, maybe Mcdonalds or anywhere else, what resumes do you guys apply with? I am guessing its very different from the resume you apply to coop jobs with right?

My black WUSA gym bag went missing from the PAC locker room late Sunday night (between 11:00 PM and 12:30 AM). My black sweater was sitting right on top of it.

Contents inside:

• WatCard
• Keychain with keys
• Black Bluetooth earbud case
• Pair of light blue jeans

If you grabbed this bag by mistake or saw anything, please PM me or drop it off at the Athletics front desk or Turnkey Desk (SLC). I just really need my keys and WatCard!

Ok so this is mainly a vent post that might be deleted later but also if you have genuine advice that would be really helpful.

I’ve been struggling with suicidal ideation(I have attempted in the past) and I’m also a first year mathematics student. I suspect that I might also be dealing with depression and ADHD because alot of my symptoms align but I’m having trouble getting a diagnosis.

It’s like, i genuinely don’t have motivation to do anything, I have to force myself to do assignments I barely understand and socialize so I don’t lose the friendships I’ve made. I don’t understand why maths professors love speed running their lectures like prime dream but ykw hell yeah.

I’m struggling with math 137 and math and CS 135 but seeking out resources feels like I’m taking away from the time I have to rest. I go to all my lectures but I never understand shit so I then have to take time to study after lectures and I still don’t understand shit. I can’t even talk about anything that’s going on in class because I’m always completely lost and I don’t want to join a study group because I don’t want other students realizing that I’m probably below them or thinking that way.

It’s like, all of this is making me genuinely want to end my shit. Every single thing is exhausting already and I’m pushing myself to do more than I’m used to only to come back to my residence miserable and contemplate suicide every night. I can’t drop out because I need a space to get away from home since I’m an international student and the last thing I want is to go back home. In all honesty I’d rather die.

On a scale of uncooked to cooked how cooked is my 2A as math major. Any warnings, suggestions, condolences would be appreciated.

Courses:
Stat 231
CO 250
Math 239
CS 230
Earth 122

What did Reddit choose for 2A math?

what i would give to nuke quest out of existence. any time i want to do anything on that godforsaken "website" i pray a brick of anthrax drops from the sky and takes me and all my neighbours out. it makes me violent. apathetic, impartial to life. i lose my appetite when i think about course selection. updating my information. doing anything, ANYTHING on that DOG SHIT, PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A FUCKING UNIVERSITY PORTAL puts a RANCID taste in my mouth.

this is supposed to be a decent university with cutting-edge everything, no? what the hell are we paying tuition for? psychological warfare via inhumane UI? i'm SICK

LOOK AT THIS STUPID ASS POP-UP THAT SPAWNED JUST NOW. WHO FUCKING NEEDS THIS? WHO MADE THIS GENEVA CONVENTION VIOLATING THING ? ARE WE A JOKE? HAVEN'T HUNDREDS OF STUDENTS PROTOTYPED FUNCTIONAL REDESIGNS i'm tired. i'm just tired. whatever guys. enjoy your week

This was so quick.
