According to the haunts of history, we shall see how our "League of Nations", the UN, is able to cope and perform in the next few decades down the road. As for online learning, do you guys really feel less stressed? Personally I feel the demand is much more and the workload is visibly more intense Not having to wake up at 6 am is pretty sweet. But since I start the day of much letter, there is like an endless wall of work I have to get done. But it is funner to do as I don’t feel fatigued from having to wake up at 6. When do you get up daily then? I'm still coerced to drag myself out of bed to prepare for the day's work at 6 30 :/ |

Though the chance is relatively high, I am afraid... Negative chain reaction can be a very serious issue. We already have severe problems in tourism and logistics... And it is only a beginning... I’d say a depression much like the great recession in 2007-2009 is going to happen 100%. It was inevitable even without the corona virus. As for ww3, I think the probability is much lower fortunately. The next World war (if it ever will take place) will be the end of humanity taking into account the quality and quantity of modern nuclear etc. weapons. And, fortunately, all states understand it well enough. But the upcoming recession and economic crisis might bring to power warmongers as the case usually is during troubled times. I personally believe that we can't avoid a serious confrontation between USA and China in the future. Let's hope this economic competition won't transform into something more serious. |

If it is going to be a world war its kill or be killed. Once a nuclear weapon launces, it will be an end of the world. But in the latest technology and mindset of people, never they will be afford a worldwar, instead a high chance of revolution. |

Every day, online classes start at 7:30. Since I’m home, I have to wake up at around 7:00. Usually they last from 7:30 to 15:35. But on Wednesdays, it’s from 7:30 to 12:00. |

I should study more. In one class, we are solving partial differential equations using finite elements methods. In another class, we are solving circuit problems with differential equations. In another class, we are solving matrices using matlab. And in the final class, we are doing giberish with phase transformations. Its very demoralizing to say the least.

Many members of my class are depressed due to Physics. I am depressed myself due to math. |

Like, we just feel hopeless. We feel that it’s terribly boring, and just impossible to look at and understand.

Even the most accomplished students are feeling like that.

But we pretend that everything is fine as to not get embarrassed.

Physics I and II are weed out courses but really you cover everything you cover later in them in future classes. You cover physics 1 in statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, while you cover physics ii in applied electrical theory. With regards to math, it just keeps building on top of each level. You have to be really good at each class to make sure you survive the next. |

I'm still coerced to drag myself out of bed to prepare for the day's work at 6 30 :/ I usually wake up at 7.00 - 8.00 am. Sometimes as Lata as 12.00 noon or as early as before 6.00 am. As I don't have work much, I am free to do anything. |
