I'm a recent graduate of Syracuse University. I studied applied math, with minors in physics and computer science. I am looking for full-time job in software engineer or some sort of devops. I have worked on a lot of personal projects, as well as contributed to open source Common Lisp projects.

Thanks!

At my university, Syracuse University, we just learned that school will be online preliminary for one week after our spring break ends. (Finish this week of school, spring break, then online for a week after)[0].

Not sure that all my peers going home is the best idea. Also, we on campus have watch those from the Florence Abroad Program come back to campus and attend events. Not too likely to have been infected, but I'm worried about all our parents and grandparents.

I wonder, what will my Korean or Chinese friends do? If they are expected possibly to have to be back on campus in a month, they can't go home and come back, they can't stay here, so they have to pay for an apartment for a month?

Ah, maybe hardware issues. I will say, I have an 8 and the camera randomly broke on mine, and when I talked to someone who repairs them, she said that lately many of the 8 cameras have been breaking.

That said, the repair was fairly easy, it was a $30 camera and 20 minutes to repair it.

Why an iPhone 8 over a 7? Is the performance much different?

Price wise an iPhone 7 Renewed on Amazon is only ~$250-260 (128gb) versus an iPhone 8 which is around ~$400 (64gb).
