The best way to absorb knowledge is to put your book below your pillow when you go to bed. The book is very heavily doped with electrons knowledge compared to that in your brain. Thus, the knowledge in your brain is referred to as the minority carriers. Due to this diffusion gradient of the knowledge concentration, there will be a minority carrier injection from the book into the brain. However, precaution must be made to ensure that extraction of the minority carrier from the brain will not occur. So there must be a forward biasing and not a reverse biasing for this reason. Hence, one must be highly motivated when trying this out; else the experiment will fail with detrimental results.
Furthermore, we want as much knowledge as possible to reach the collectorbrain from the emitter book without recombining with the majority carrier (air) in the base pillow. For this reason, the width of your pillow needs to be small enough. So go get a thinner pillow before doing this for maximum performance.
Hope you will still appreciate the BJT (Book-Brain Judgmental Transfer), although its now not highly regarded in the market anymore due of the advent of the MOS-FET (Method Of Studying via Fundamental Education Transfer).
Crap, this is all Jhalley's fault, he started it! See.. this is what engin students crapped about during their breaks..
They say Jack Kilby's work spawned the microelectronics revolution that has changed forever the way we live, work, and communicate. Well, they forgot to add the part where it changed forever the way students pull their hair over multi-stage amplifiers circuits! Ok ok, seriously, this man is the reason for today's modern digital world. If not for him, you probably wouldn't be reading this shit on that machine of yours.
The invention of the chip was motivated by the problems of the exponentially increasing number of components required to design improved circuits on a limited physical space during that time. So in order to solve this problem, instead of designing smaller components, Kilby as well as Robert Norton Noyce, fabricated the entire circuit network into a single crystal of a semiconductor and that’s the chip as we know of today.
Ohh i got all these while searching for info for my E3 lab report... Damnit, still cant find what i am supposed to find..
My nose likes running. He likes to run in the morning. But he sure loves running in NUS LT6 and 7A the most. He seems to be very excited over the lectures so much so that he ran around throughout the whole freaking EE2004 lecture last wed. 2 hours of running, you not tired meh? You run nevermind, dun anyhow ask other noses to run with you lar, later kena beaten then you know hor. So stop running, at least till after the exams. Then you can run all you want, ok?
Uniquely Singapore, taken from my Nation Building forum: (Read the complete list inside!)
1. Thanks to SMS, you have an extra large thumb.
2. Tks 2 SMS, u oso dun no how 2 spel n e mor. 3. You pat MRT and bus seats to cool them before you sit down. 4. At lunch, you start discussing what to eat for dinner.
5. Your wedding photos include shots of you dressed up like Louis XIV, Michael Jackson, or Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet in Titanic.
6. When speaking to foreigners, you somehow feel a need to adopt an accent. (If you’re a DJ, this happens even when you’re not speaking to foreigners.)
7. You won’t raise your voice to protest policies, but you’ll raise your fists to whack someone over Hello Kitty.
8. You’re forever talking about businesses you want to set up but will probably never get around to starting. 9. You don’t know ¾ of the people attending your wedding. 10. You separate food into 2 basic groups: ‘heaty’ and ‘cooling’.
11. You’re never completely sure how many times you’ve sung the second verse of the National Anthem.

You suddenly realize you’re very interested in biotech - just like you suddenly realized three years ago that you were very interested in e-commerce, and before that, engineering, and before that, medicine and law. 19. You think being an entrepreneur is setting up a bubble tea/Portuguese egg tart/gao luck/porridge shop right next to an existing bubble tea/Portuguese egg tart/gao luck/porridge shop. 20. You think people are inconsiderate when they don’t leave their table immediately after eating at the food court but think you have every right to take 25 bites to finish the last red bean in your ice kachang. 21. You find it impossible to make suggestions without drawing a fishbone chart first. 22. If you’re a guy, whenever you get together with your guy friends, you invariably trade army stories.
23. If you’re a girl, whenever you get together with your girl friends, you invariably trade stories about how your stupid guy friends are forever trading army stories. 24. You think the most important sporting event in Singapore this year was David Beckham switching from Manchester United to Real Madrid.
25. You somehow feel that food tastes better when eaten by a longkang.
26. It actually makes a difference to you being called an ‘NSMan’ rather than a ‘Reservist’. 27. You’ve eaten more times at the Esplanade than you’ve actually seen shows there.
28. You need campaigns to tell you how to be courteous, to flush toilets, have sex, etc. 29. When you visit the Zoo, you wonder what the animals taste like.
30. You feel the urge to add the suffix ‘-polis’ to everything, viz. Biopolis, Airtropolis, Fusionopolis, Entrepolis, etc.

32. You meet in hotels a lot.
33. Your children have a rudimentary knowledge of Tagalog or Bahasa Indonesia.
34. You work at McDonald’s when you’re old rather than young. 35. You’ll gladly spend $50,000 on a car, but will go to great lengths to save a few bucks on ERP charges or even a few cents on a parking coupon. 36. Pork floss and mayonnaise on bread is a completely natural combination to you. 37. If you’re pregnant, you have the strange ability to make people on the MRT fall asleep instantly. 38. You ask for the bill by miming a signing movement.
39. You’ve started referring to foreign employees as ‘talent’ instead of ‘expatriates’.
40. At the dinner table, you’re always discussing which other food places serve better versions of what you’re eating.
41. You copy down licence plate numbers of cars involved in accidents.

49. You ‘chope’ a seat by placing a packet of tissues on the chair.
50. You’re very forthright with your criticisms of the Gahmen, unless there’s a chance they might actually hear you.
51. You diligently track the whereabouts of your favourite hawkers, i.e..you know that the famous Tiong Bahru Bao is now in Jurong, the famous Outram Char Kuay Teow is now in Hong Lim Centre and the famous Lau Hock Kien Hokkien mee from the old Lau Pa Sat is now at Beach Road.
52. Your mother probably can’t speak your ‘mother tongue’.
53. You’d rather drink your own pee than pay someone more for water.
54. You secretly find that the best part of the Speak Good English Movement is hearing the Singlish bits in their ads.
55. You have an automatic sensor in your head which categorizes people you meet into stayer/ quitter, cosmopolitan/heartlander, normal/ express/ gifted, etc.
56. You think we’re living in a modern, sophisticated country even when our leaders still insist on wearing their school uniforms.
57. You wish your constituency is in a walkover, because otherwise it’s damn ‘leceh’.

60. You can never quite remember what “the core values” of Singaporeans are.
Next time when you play with an electronic gadget, be sure to offer your solemn respect to the billions and billions of brain cells that sacrifice each day in electrical engineering undergrads in an effort to perform the circuit analysis for their electronics class.
Things are getting more complicated as more than one transistor were brought into the picture and what seems to be the easiest module before the break, now ensues much uncertainties in the minds of many. Lecturer said perhaps we are just not used to it, but with more practices and time, the analysis of multistage transistors will be like differentiation to us. I certainly hope so. Yet, there isn’t much time left. Tick tock.
The copy on the board reads 'Oogling at the burger may involuntarily cause drooling which may in turn lead to a wet floor. Issued for your safety by the management of Eatalica restaurant'.
This one is a mini cooper placed at a train station to give people the impression that there's lots of space in it. Ha.
I am like so disappointed can. What kind of dumbass would mixed up the probability of getting a royal flush with the probability of getting a straight flush? (Its a bloody 10 times difference can?) Especially so for someone who play lots of Big2 card games and know all the possible combinations for poker. Currytan, go kill urself or something. *Bang head against wall*
A prank, everyone else freezes, what would you do?
Dang. If only time can slow down for now, for the mid term break is coming to an end real soon. Time during the break does seem to pass much faster. Perhaps there is indeed a term break conspiracy! Lol!
Initially I thought it was certain that understanding uncertainty (GEM2900) is an easy module to take. Then the very thought that it was certainly too easy sent an uneasy feeling that make my ball shrinks as that means the probability of everyone else doing well is sufficently high to assume a negatively skewed normal distribution, shifting the peak to the right side of the bell curve, making it a very competitive module and difficult to score well. Next came the S/Uing period, where I realised my understanding of uncertainty was not as certain as i initially thought, so the uncertainty of whether I should S/U this module became overwhelming. Yet, I was quite certain this would be an easy & slack module and S/Uing it would be such a waste. Then again, although finding a module easy do have some association with the grades one would get, there is not enough evidence to assume causation as there might be a lurking variable influencing the relation. Thus, the uncertainty continues to sway my decision. After giving some thoughts, I am of the opinion that I am certainly thinking too much and the conclusion of this uncertainty is the certainty that I will not S/U understanding uncertainty.
