Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
There are all kinds of places to go for trendy answers to this question, but pragmatically the best coding language is the one that solves a problem for you. Maybe it’s what the project you’re interested in uses, maybe it’s the one your boss requires. If you’re a solo developer, maybe it’s the one that there’s already a good ecosystem around.
It’s fascinating and some of my favorite pieces of media explore it. The Locked Tomb book series, the tv show Yellowjackets, Ethel Cain’s Preacher’s Daughter album. All amazing pieces of work if that’s a trope that interests you!
I understand why you don’t understand! Though it’s the basis of a lot of computer-based composition sounds it isn’t well documented. Its development seems to be attributed primarily to Trevor Wishart, and here’s his own explanation: bit.ly/wishart-wavesets, full of references to other texts you might find helpful.
…oh, baby, don’t hurt me… Dee Dee Halligan and Karin Hartmann-Eisenblätter certainly had a way with words!
I’m partial to themes: they give a group a way to select films that are related in some way. Example: films based on classic books, like Les Miserables, Little Women, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Being There, etc. Other themes: monsters, Christmas, the ocean, baseball… Agree on a theme and everyone picks one or two. Lots of films on movies.bc.edu!
If the world was ending, I’d be here and glad to see you.

You can check out an external DVD or BluRay drive and watch it on your laptop: bit.ly/bcl-technology-loans
That’s a great idea! I’ll tell my assistants to get on the pet program.
There are no perfect answers to this question. The Career Center (bit.ly/BC-career) has a bookable space. You could try booking a study room in O’Neill (bit.ly/ONeillStudyRoom) though they’re often booked days in advance & really intended for group study. I wonder if your dorm room during the day is quiet enough. Otherwise, perhaps try finding an empty classroom. Good luck!
Hm, with me and the front door, I just hung out here long enough that eventually they noticed me. Maybe just be around him a bunch? And be kind? And be yourself?
I don’t know but I’ll try to find out.
If you’re tired enough, anywhere works. But! There are some comfy chairs in Gasson on the lower level, and of course O’Neill is chock-ful of comfy chairs. May I recommend the ones in the hallway to the 5th floor study area? We also have some older chairs here and there in nooks on the upper floors. I’ve seen many napping head-down on tables or even in the stacks, but those floors are hard, and you might prevent someone from retrieving a book located 6 feet above your sternum.
Restaurants and businesses think about that kind of thing as a cost of doing business when they set prices. So no, in the sense that there isn’t a separate punitive line item for it. But yes.
Bike BC is taking the fall semester to replace their inventory of bikes and revamp the program. Bikes should be available for loan in the spring semester once we are through the worst of the winter weather.
If I am understanding this correctly, you are asking for books that made me cry. The list is long, but recently A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara got me right in the feels.
I’m sorry it’s chilly in here. In addition to the whole campus always having an awkward transition from cooling to heating in the fall, BC Libraries’ buildings have an added wrinkle: books like a fairly narrow range of temperature and (especially) humidity, and sometimes removing humidity means removing heat. That old stereotype of librarians in cardigans is true for a reason.
I am so sorry to hear you hate your major. “Success” can mean a lot of things, but there is a lot of space between not going to class at all and getting 100% on everything. If you have talked to advising and made sure there wasn’t time to upgrade a minor to a major or go all in on spring semester to get enough classes to pivot majors…I highly recommend talking to someone in Counseling to unpack where you are and make a plan for what’s next. bit.ly/BC-counseling
Was just reading someone describe turtles as shy rocks that can swim, so I’m going to say turtles today. https://bit.ly/4eS9urd
I have alerted our colleagues, thank you!
