10/2    is it true that at Stanford you ask for your receipt instead of
        your diploma since you buy your degree instead of earn it?
        \_ I'm no 'furd fan, but isn't that like any school, including
           Cal? we pay tuition too you know.
           \_ But for such a tough CS school to give out such an easy MS
              degree, it looks to me they're selling it.
                \_ so how come cal's MS isn't "easy"? isn't it the same?
                   \_ At least Cal requires a thesis.
           \_ Yes, but you can drop a class up until the last day without
              any problems. Gotta D in a class? Drop it, take it until it
              gets better, and, by the way, here's the bill for your tuition.

12/26   Mail is being retired, but will mail still be forwarded if we have
        a .forward? Also, _why_ is mail being retired?
        \_ one more yreason i only hire stanford grads from now on
           \_ Like you have any real hiring decision power.
        \_ don't recall seeing a discussion on this.  it would be nice if mail
           service remains.

9/23    I'm in grad school part time, and the professor I was trying to get
        to advise me just sent me "What you suggest (remote, part-time, topic
        formulation) doesn't fit my advising style..."  Does anyone know
        what "topic formulation" might mean in this context?  I come with
        funding from work, but the topics I can choose are somewhat limited.
        Could be a reference to that...

8/10    Check this out. I went to Google Maps, typed in Pasadena then Animal Shelter.
        The first few items are "Caltech Housing", for students. I tried this for
        other cities like Berkeley and got real animal shelters. Is this some kind
        of lame geek joke from Caltech fraternity students?
        \_ Learn to format properly. Caltech doesn't really have fraternities,
           they have "houses" which are sort of like dorms, co-ops and frats
