You noticed the drink there.  Something is wrong with you.  PS.  I am drinking Pocari sweat right now.  Well, no I am not, but I could be if I wanted too.  There are 2 bottles in the cupboard for this weekends ball hockey game :)

But on off topic: I think I met her.  2 years ago at Computex.  Its hard to remember with all the show girls there.

Yeah, this is the side of geek hack that distresses me. It's also the side of my department that distresses me.

I'm in Computer Science. Many of the other PhD students really are EXACTLY what you would expect, if you accept stereotypes as accurate.
Title: Hot chicks overclock too.
Post by: Voixdelion on Sun, 09 January 2011, 11:02:01
I admit it is unfortunately also tending towards truth even now in schools in the stereotypical perception that science and engineering are only for boys or "guy things".  I recently saw a segment on some tv show where they were trying to make it more accessible to girls and I was kind of appalled at how surprised the young women were to discover that they were good at it.

 It happens often enough that I shouldn't be surprised anymore, but I am still taken aback when I see how much a single-sex education has done to deliver me from the dark ages.  I find it rather horrifying that a decade into the new millennium still finds thirteen year old girls who never even considered the possibility of excelling in math or science solely because of their gender.  I hope this is not as prevalent in the private schools, at least, but in this day it is wholly inexcusable for this notion to persist anywhere.  

Considering this, it isn't any wonder that intelligent young men don't get socialized with intelligent young women in the wild.  If I were to write a column for nerdy young lovelorn I would start with the advice to start finding ways to participate in activities at whatever all-girls schools are nearest them.  At least then they have a chance to meet a young lady with a bit of sense, not to mention ones that have little access to young men their age.  

It is precisely because of stuff like this that I have found the wherewithal to donate even $5 to my alma mater every year - I was incredibly fortunate to be able to take so much for granted; so many of my classmates don't even realize how lucky we were.

Post by: theferenc on Sun, 09 January 2011, 11:12:00
You know, I hadn't really thought about it, but you might very well be correct about the single sex schools, especially for girls, giving them a leg up against the stereotypes.

I went to an all guys school, and most of my friends were at the girls school down the road. Many of them went on to careers in math and science. Most of the women in my current department spent much of their formative education in private schools as well.

Thank you for mentioning this. I'm going to have to look into this a bit more. I wonder if anyone in SIGCSE (CS education special interest group -- part of the ACM) has looked in to this particular phenomenon.

Seems kinda backwards to me, and I've been out of school for 10 years.

I guess a lot comes down to individual family and cultural background. Education tends to be valued more by those who already have a fair share of it, and those people are more likely to look beyond stereotypes as well.

What I'm wondering is - by 13, shouldn't it be reasonably clear whether someone has a predisposition for math and analytical thinking or not? The jury would still be out on chemistry and biology and stuff at this point, of course (can't knock it until you've tried it).

All I can say from my years at university is that there were depressingly few girls in physics and electrical engineering. Those who made it past the first few semesters tended to be among the best though. Supposedly it's less severe in other European countries.

"Non-technical" sciences (chemistry, biology, medicine, economics) looked entirely different. From what I remember, it wasn't too bad in maths either.

The impression I get in my country is that girls tend to excel in math, scientific and technical subjects in high school, just to get good grades -- more often better than the boys.
Then they tend to choose stereotypical female occupations after their high school graduation anyway ...

On the engineering forefront my fiancee has had to face adversity cuz of sexism. It doesn't help that 80% of the other female engineers are complete morons and she has deal with that front as well. Even she has concluded that 90% of the female engineers she meets "just got there", and the higher grade she gets, even less possibility that there's going to be a female engineer which she is just fine with (not that she wants to be the only female in the room, just that even she finds working with females annoying). Her stance now is that if she goes into a meeting and she see's a female at the table she doesn't recognize, it's a secretary taking notes and not another female engineer, she's been right so far.

First thought that came into my head:

"As opposed to the girl on the right or the girl on the left?"

"Wait, they are handling LN2 without cryo gloves? I mean the Leidenfrost effect works for brief spills, but still!"

Now, now. She is a lovely young lady. I wish her every success in her computing endeavors, and I think I can rest assured that she will be successful in finding love in her personal life.

While math and science are becoming more open to young women, most people who overclock the CPU of a personal computer are doing so in order to obtain a more intense gaming experience from certain video games which are demanding of computer power.

From Doom III (now, of course, old news) to Crysis (rather more current) such games tend to be about... violence and killing. Another major usage of computing power in video games has been pioneered by console sports games involving beach volleyball (such as those by one company known as Gainax).

Thus, even if serious careers in science, mathematics, and computers are more open to women, video games, particularly such video games as are computationally demanding... have not been directed at women as a market.

I overclock my fiancee's computer so she can literally have 15 tabs in firefox open and idk why but i put in a dual screen for her too and she uses that for another 15 tabs in chrome.
i'm not gonna teach her computer house cleaning habits in fact her folder organization is a sight to behold but it's best just to give her power. Gives me a "reason" to upgrade but she just keeps opening more and more tabs! It's not even a wimpy OC either it's a quad core x4.

I have a friend who doesn't use bookmarks. He just never closes the tabs he finds interesting... He has been up to ~500 tabs at a point but then firefox seemed to get a bit instable he says. Also it takes quiet a while start it up if it needs to be restarted. Crazy =)

"tabs open in FF/Chrome" isnt a CPU issue.

get more RAM.

15 tabs isnt even a lot...

Post by: Findecanor on Sat, 15 January 2011, 12:49:19
I never use tabs. I open multiple browser windows, at a decent resolution, not maximized.

I configure my window manager so that the window is "rolled up" to become just the title bar when I double click it. This is like having multiple tabs, but in two dimensions instead of one.

I use Linux with Metacity or Window Maker, but there are third-party tools for Windows and MacOS that allow you to do the same.

Post by: bpiphany on Sat, 15 January 2011, 13:18:22
I have 15 tabs open in firefox right now. That is probably my average. Goes down to perhaps 8 or 10 when I clean up. If I am researching something or browse a forum I'd say I might have 50 or so open at the same time at the most. I use tree tabs to keep them organized.

I haven't looked into the statistics of it, but it seems that in Asia women in math or science fields are more common than in the West.  My wife is Asian and was a CS major and was the top of her class.  I've met a lot of her friends from university and they almost all seem to be quite intelligent and know their stuff.  Back a long time ago when I was attending university in the States, there weren't many women that I saw who were CS, EE, or other science majors and the ones that I was aware of were no where near the top of the class.

It seems to me that in Asia a lot more emphasis is placed on education than in the West, so perhaps that's the reason I see more women in science/technical fields in Asia.  Parents really push their children, both men and women, to get a good college education in a field where they can get a good job after graduating.

Sure. You won't find any of those in the "cute" thread though.

I also have a seething hatred for Anime and the whole breed of eastern animation, with the exception of a few classics. This doesn't belong here, but I hate a lot of things and like telling people about it!

Not 100% sure what you mean.  Neither my wife nor her classmates I don't think would be classified by most Asians as belonging to the group of women who act cute and dumb.  If you're referring strictly to beauty, my wife won the beauty contest in her province, qualifying her to enter the Miss Thailand contest, and several of her university classmates are quite lookers as well, without having any sort of a nerdy/geeky look to them.  On the other hand some of her other classmates are quite geeky looking and fit the stereotype of what a female science/engineering major should look like.

"Cuteness" though seems to be stereotyped differently in different cultures.  I get the feeling that in the U.S., a woman who looks and acts cute will be more likely perceived as being an airhead.  In Asia I don't get the impression that a women is so likely to be stereotyped that way strictly because she's cute.  In most Asian cultures, the norms for how society expects women to be feminine and men to be masculine are much stronger/more defined than in the West.  So an Asian women just behaving in a normal, feminine way in Asia might possibly be mistaken as being overly cute by other cultures.

That's just my opinion having lived my life in several different countries divided between Asia and the West.

Don't mess with Chinese women... It can hurt!

Quote
A young man was lost wandering in a forest, when he came upon a small house. He knocked on the door and was greeted by a very old Chinese man with a long, grey beard.

"I'm lost," said the man. "Can you put me up for the night?"

"Certainly," the Chinese man said, "but on one condition. If you so much as lay a finger on my daughter, I will inflict upon you the three worst Chinese tortures known to man."

"Ok," said the man, thinking that the daughter must be pretty old given her father's age, and entered the house. Before dinner, the daughter came down the stairs. She was young, beautiful, and had a fantastic figure. She was obviously attracted to the young man since she couldn't keep her eyes off him during the meal.

Remembering the old man's warning, he ignored her and went up to bed alone. But during he night, he could bear it no longer, and sneaked into her room for a night of passion. He was careful to keep everything quiet so the old man wouldn't hear. Near dawn he crept back to his room, exhausted, but happy.

He woke to feel a pressure on his chest. Opening his eyes he saw a large rock on his chest with a note on it that read, "Chinese Torture 1: Large rock on chest."

"Well, that's pretty pathetic," he thought. "If that's the best the old man can do then I don't have much to worry about." He picked the large rock, walked over to the window and threw it out. As he did so he noticed another note on it that read: "Chinese Torture 2: Rock tied to left testicle." In a panic he glanced down and saw the rope was already getting close to the end. Figuring that a few broken bones was better than castration, he jumped out of the window after the boulder. As he plummeted downward he saw a large sign on the ground that read, "Chinese Torture 3: Right testicle tied to bedpost."

I overclock my fiancee's computer so she can literally have 15 tabs in firefox open and idk why but i put in a dual screen for her too and she uses that for another 15 tabs in chrome.
i'm not gonna teach her computer house cleaning habits in fact her folder organization is a sight to behold but it's best just to give her power. Gives me a "reason" to upgrade but she just keeps opening more and more tabs! It's not even a wimpy OC either it's a quad core x4.


Get SSD, get more ram. And 15 tabs is basically vintage mode for me, sometimes I reach 150+ but I am getting better at avoiding it ;p

I think this is a stereotype completely.  It's one of those polls that tries to depict women as being oppressed or discouraged.  The truth of the matter is that women do plenty in science.  I do not think these studies look at "science" broadly enough and fixate on engineering and physics.  What about chemistry, biology, medicine?

Not many scientific minds are good old boys who discriminate.  A lot of "journalists" and activists will make much ado about nothing.

You mean skin-covered plastic bags.

Face it: Real ones don't come that big (relative to the overall body size).

I wonder how that lady's gonna look if they dig up her coffin in 500 years. You'd see  a skeleton,  lips, and plastic.

internet detectives have found christina hendricks 12 years ago in a playboy. I won't post it here but you can just google christina hendricks 1999 playboy and see the 2 pics for yourself, she's the one all the way far right and she looks like any proportionate size 4 model. She does put on weight, a lot of weight but she must have won the super girl gene lottery to put that much weight in all the right places.

Today me and my dad were at the mall.  We were playing a game: Are they real, or are they fake?  My dad won, he says he plays that game all the time.

How did you verify that he won? Did one of you physically check?

My wife doesn't overclock, but she does run Linux, writes HTML, shoots a Glock better than I do, keeps up with me hiking, and she looks hot while doing it all.

Of course she has a x200e stinkpad, so overclocking would be counter intuitive.

Pics of us, I think she is hot and definitely nerdy, which is obviously more important:

That's what I was wondering.

Well, CLiB was eventually escorted out of the mall then I'd presume.
