Really, Honestly thought I would never need this book again. The sole reason I still have it is because the bookstore wouldn’t buy it back.

I’m planning to use some of these numerical methods for a cloud computing project I’m starting. I’m really excited for the project. I will be designing a stock market solution to run on a huge Hadoop cluster at school.

New course

October 19th, 2009 | Category: from the road

Harvard is proposing a new general education course covering “how to chew with your mouth closed”. It will feature professors from the medical school, public health school, and department of mechanical engineering. It will be a required course especially for asian and indian students but will be compulsory for a shocking number of white american students as well. Access to Harvard libraries will be denied until the student has mastered chewing with THE MOUTH CLOSED.

Grad school is harder because…

One thing about undergrad studies is that since you’re generally so new and green, you can look at a subject and say to yourself, ‘this may not be interesting but I will probably need to know this later in life.’

By the time you arrive in graduate school, hopefully with some career and life experience, you can conclusively look at your books and say ‘i’ll never need this again in my entire life.’

How to motivate yourself?
