How regular is your sleep schedule?

Thanks to Outlook's scheduled emails feature, extremely regular as far as everyone else knows...

What is something every Sydneysider should know about?

There are a tonne of really awesome national parks in and around Sydney that you can do fun hikes in! A lot of them are near the city and a lot of them are even accessible by public transport – get a group of people together and go if you haven't before!

What's one career you wish you could have?

I love sports so my ultimate career would be professional basketball or tennis player. I'm into endurance training at the moment so doing triathlons professionally would be pretty sweet as well.

If you had to eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be?

Hotpot.

CrossAngles or Notangles?

Fried rice! I hack things together until it suits my taste. I like to throw some rEGGex into the mix when I can 😊

Most sane COMP2521 take?

Complexity analysis is just astrology for algorithms

What's the best sport?

In my opinion the most enjoyable is cycling! Cycling with friends is really relaxing and even better if you can integrate it into your commute. Remember to wear a helmet :)

Got any life advice?

In programming terms:

Go and C the print("Hello World") && for i in 1.. {
