What should a dude who doesn't have a bachelor's degree in CS be doing if he wants to get into a CS master's degree program? I already have a degree in a social science and I've taken the intro hard sciences but that's about it. I'm going to go talk to my local university's computer science department because from the website, it seems like they have a lot of leeway for students without bachelor's degrees in CS. I registered for a couple CS courses next semester as well, but not sure if there is anything else I can do.
Get a bachelor's degree in CS. Do you honestly believe you can handle master's level CS with your education?

I saw a couple stories from a theater arts degree and an English degree jumping in and making it past the first year at least. So maybe?? :)
>>51942152
Alright senpai, I'm a grad student currently. Here are year 1 topics. If you can't do these, you probably should get an undergrad degree first.
>logic proofs
>proofs by induction
>structural proofs
>predicates and quantifiers

Hi I am a retard. I have a ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 mother board. http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z77%20Extreme4/
I need to get a new cpufan/heatsink since I have a stock intel one on and it seems to be just going ape shit all the time.
Not sure if it matters, but i have a Intel i5-3570K quad core cpu
How do I know which ones will fit, or just recommend me one please!
>>51941832
To cool a CPU at those speeds you need a Noctua NH-D14 bare minimum. Would recommend looking into closed looped water cooling. Corsair H90 would be ideal.
>>51941873
That will fit on the motherboard? That seems like a pretty bulky item, I really need that much?
>>51941920
I was joking. It's way, way too much. The motherboard doesn't matter, pretty much any cooler is going to fit that socket. What matters is if your case has enough room to fit the cooler. What kind of case do you have?
>mfw booting up a linux distro
WTF! I thought this was supposed to be lighter than Windows!
I can take a shit faster than this!
My Arch system takes 20 seconds from button press until the end of loading the desktop.
>>51941442
nigga what are you doing?
Hey /g/angsters, this stuff keeps your circuit board or general wire matrix free of outside buttfucking via moisture and thermal/physical shocks.
How do I make this shit myself? I'll need a lot,
and $20 for every few miliLiters won't cut it financially. Anybody have any tips? or a cheaper provider?
and I don't want to spend
>>51941154
It doesn't cost that much, dude. Check amazon.
>>51941154
you could experiment with epoxies. if you need it rubbery, look into spray rubber or for tool handle dipping or whatever. If you don't need it transparent, of course. and mostr importantly meter whatever material you use.
I've always just put hotglue or kapton tape over anything important, but maybe you could use clear nail polish if mousture is an issue? Two part epoxy is also a traditional low-cost potting solution, though it will be messy for a big board like that.
I need some help /g/.
My computer shit itself, and in the meantime I'm using an old pc I got years ago.
What's the best Linux distro to use on it?
Here's the specs
>2 gigs of ram
>280 gig hdd

>no video card just the integrated graphics.

>sunbeam

>>51942111

what a depressing display of socially impaired people
Hey /g/
So ive tried, extremely hard, to overclock my old WMO 1.1a.
Windows 10 is a bitch to opperate with. Basically everything in registery is locked so im not allowed to change anything. Cant even remove mouse acceleration.
All the forums talking about this are just a bunch of sperglords that just rant about how 125hz is no different from 1000hz. (which is clearly false)
Has anyone here tried to overclock their mouse and remove acceleration in Win 10? Would really appreciate the help.
>overclocking a mouse
Boi if u dont
>>51940868
>Basically everything in registery is locked so im not allowed to change anything. Cant even remove mouse acceleration.
AHAHAHAA, is this for real? Even Pajeet can't defend this, not for the 2 microsoft coins he gets per post.
>>51940898
Its true. its actually worse than windows 8.1
Sometimes I wish I could go back to windows 10
Or if GNU would run gayms well.
I'm hoping for the pc to be mostly used for gaming and I don't mind spending a little bit higher. Please do not include monitors, keyboard, or a mouse. It would also be nice to include a 1TB hard drive. I would also prefer if you guys used pcpartpicker.
:^)
>>51940752
Do it yourself, you lazy underaged waste of electrons.
>>51940752
We're not your personal tech team. Go read about it. It's not hard to do
>>51940834
>>51940874
okie dokie
sorry to bother you guys :^)
So im just chilling, a bit tipsy and get up to make a snack. 10/10 snack complete. About to sid down and play some csgo when i see windows update screen in its full fucking glory. Then i see this shit and its taking years to get done. What the fuck happened to me? Already on windows 10 btw.
>>51940722
Also, yes thats a glowstick in the pic, no i will not put it in my ass, and is my pc going to have advanced cancer now or will it just stay at regular cancer levels.
>>51940722
What you getting tipsy with anon?
Oh yeah. This happened to me too. It's a minor update that takes the form of a major one.
>Literally the only thing that changed for me was some start menu icons
so I think it was a windows store "upgrade". I don't know for sure, I never use the thing. expect this to happen when edge finally gets extensions and when Redstone is released.
The old design for KDE's mascot wasn't good. At all.
But Christ. Just look at this thing.
If the result was going to still be shit then why bother with the effort?
>Hey have you heard about that new anime and flat design all the kids are into these days? What if we did that, but hired someone who can't draw to make us a disjointed collection of messy lines?
Clearly made by someone with assburgers.
>>51940694
but it's qt, tbqfh.
It's really cute tho?
It's literally the best thing about KDE, because KDE sucks ass.

>Clearly made by someone with assburgers.
You're the one raging about cute-ish 2D in a desktop environment's about dialog.
Should my system be using 9.7 GB of memory while running 2 applications?
The two applications I'm running are Google Chrome (4 tabs open) and Task Manager. I'm running Windows 10 with Malwarebytes running in the background.
9.7 GB of my 16 available is like 61% of all my memory.. I just don't see how that can be right, my last rig running Windows 8.1 only had 8 GB...
Help please, someone.
Have a look in your processes and order them by memory usage...
Malwarebytes sucks
>>51940437
Oh yea, I looked at that but it doesn't add to nowhere near 9.7 GB..

Name 10 things you do regularly that can't be done on any other operating system

you can fill in whatever 10 things you want
Fluidic simulation of supercritical co2 flow ((higher level cfd)
I could probably list mite than 30 things based off of that
Which is why I'm stuck with Windows
I offered to help my black friend who has novice level tech knowledge to build a PC for about 500-600 USD. I've never made a build this cheap. inb4 Tryhard faggot.

That's really bad.
Put your shit on PC Part Picker if you want actual advice.
Also stop getting him FM2 shit you racist fuck.
From here build looks like absolute shit.

Hello /g/
How do I C++ if I already Python?
kthx
>>51939805
Prepare for significantly less abstraction.
>>51939832
can't I just import abstraction?
>>51939805
Throw out everything you thought you knew.
