Imagine if time travel was real. Yeah that doesn’t seem to have much to do with software engineering, but trust me on this one. Just think of all the things you could do if you had the ability to travel through time. What would you change? What wouldn’t you change? So many possibilities – I…Continue Reading Time Travel (or, an Introduction Post)
Some people may remember I did Specialisation Corner last year, where each week I would choose to discuss an Engineering Specialisation. Like the massive nerd I am, I decided to analyse data on people’s intended first choice and the number of spots available in each specialisation. Well, guess what? I’m doing it again this year….Continue Reading Specialisation Corner: FINAL Edition
1) Have you loved programming since you were a kid? Well, you really don’t know anything at all. Unless you’re some sort of prodigy and do nothing but code in your spare time, there is still a LOT you don’t know. I’m talking software design patterns, HEAPS of algorithms and data structures, and making your…Continue Reading Things I Discovered After Taking Software Engineering
So, you’ve made it into Engineering! Congratulations. I’m sure you’re enjoying it immensely; what with the neverending assignments, deadlines, tests, and whatnot. The one thing you have to look forward to is the summer holidays, right? Surely it’ll be like high school again, hanging out with your mates and doing literally nothing for weeks. Nope….Continue Reading Internships
Some feedback I’ve gotten since my last post was that I didn’t exactly give a glowing review of SE. Don’t get me wrong, I do ABSOLUTELY love what I’m studying. But I refuse to sugarcoat things and I want you guys to 100% know what you’re gonna expect before you get in, and that involves…Continue Reading I Am Not A Master Welder
Helloooo everyone! Hopefully some of you remember me from writing for The Inside Word last year, since I’m assuming most of you guys reading this are first years. Well, guess what? I’ve decided to continue my promising career as a blogger, because clearly that’s pretty much all I’m good at. We can call it… Part…Continue Reading Remember Me?
Kia ora! So I hope that you have all been enjoying the posts I have been making this year and that I was able to give you a slight “appetizer” of the software life. I hope that you also checked out the other blogger’s posts too because everyone has been contributing a lot of great…Continue Reading Time to Decide?
Kia ora everyone, Well, it sure has been an intense couple of weeks. I have had pretty much zero time to blog, as we have all been busy with our SOFTENG 206 design project and studying for tests. To be honest, it’s been a pretty good semester, with so many good memories made, but I…Continue Reading Survivors
Kia ora everyone! So, we’ve just passed halfway through the semester and although right now the workload is all good, we know that it’s about to get very bad. We have a test for SOFTENG 211 in week 9, with a large weighting, so that’s going to be intense. We are also busy with our…Continue Reading An Update on Semester Two
Yo! Semester Two! Let’s go! Kia ora everyone, We’re back! And we’re stronger than ever. Everyone pretty much knows everyone now, and we’re looking forward to what should be an even better semester than last semester. I hope that you all had a good break. We’re currently at the end of Week 5 in Semester…Continue Reading We’re Back Fam!
