Hello, I am working on my MSc and looking at athletes eye-movements. Currently there are no consumer level sport eye trackers which would be a game changer for performance tracking and evaluation. I am looking for someone who is interested in electronics and pcs to help build a prototype. My expertise is in neuroscience, data processing, and statistics with a surface level understanding of pcs and tech as well as decent vibe coding skills. If you like soldering and developing wearable tech I’d be interested in collaborating. I already have a base prototype that works which needs further refinement.

Who is in charge of the areas / roadways of Caryndale and Stauffer drive? The amount of trash that people dump all down Caryndale and at that shady forest dead endspot before turning on to Stauffer is absolutely appalling. There was a car parked there for 3 days, a bunch of trash all over the roads. Why are people so disgusting and lazy? I wish they had cameras at the places.

How are these guys allowed a microphone in the uptown square? I hear some poor girl trying to sing over the city event’s music happening, and suddenly she passed the mic to some loud dude to start yelling about Jesus. And then the 15 of them posted up around the square wasting printer paper. No one wants to join your shit bro, fuck out of my ears.

Hi, so I’m going to be a first year this fall, and I need to book a flight to my home country during winter break. I wanted to ask if anyone knows (approximately) when exams for first year courses end (I have bu127, bu111, & ex120). Also, would I miss out on a lot if I miss second semester syllabus week?

Thanks!

Anyone have any recommendations for the best steaks in Waterloo? I don’t want to brave the market on a Saturday, so preferably a shop somewhere else. Can be out of town as well- am heading out towards Stratford today.

Does this mean my admission got rescinded? This is surprising as i have met all my conditionals

Any nice sourdough spots in Waterloo? I’m aware of Goldenhearth and Roux in Kitchener, but I’m curious where to get a yummy crusty fresh sourdough specifically in Waterloo

Hi all, I’m looking to get some recommendations/advice for a good, fair mechanic that can do transmission work in the region. I need to get a new clutch system and have it installed, and am hoping to pay around 2k (dealership wants > 4k, lol). Thanks in advance!

On our way to Laurier currently for early check in at 11am.

I don’t have my one card. Do I need that to check in and get access to my room?

From what I know the one card office is only open Monday to Friday.

Can anyone advise.

I have a bed frame that we're hoping to adjust in size to fit a mattress we have that is a different size. Wondering if anyone knows of a person or place who could help adjust the size of the bed frame for us? And if it's cheaper to do that vs replace either the mattress or frame

Wondering where and when the Spirit Halloween stores will be opening in Cambridge?

Hi everyone,

We're moving to Cambridge, close to Eagle St/Concession Rd. How safe is this area in general? Also, does anyone have any recommendations for cafes, restaurants, anything else? Thanks :)

Hi,

Does anyone know where I can purchase the Ginger Goat Hop'T Sauce? I used to buy it at the St. Jacob’s Farmers Market but I didn’t see the vendor the last time I checked.

Edit: Hoping to buy it in person vs. online. Thanks

Hey. I'm about to move into the KW area in 2 months, so I would like to know what are some nice High-Rise condos to be accommodated in within the Kitchener-Waterloo area? No budget, just want to live a good quality life.

Hello Intellectuals!

I am looking for some suggestions about Ac and furnance.

My Ac is 18 years old and furnace is 5 years old.

Due to condensation, blower ecm motor has gone bad.

I was suggested to change both AC and furnance.

I have taken quotes from mutiple vendors. Most of them are giving quotes in range of 5-10k

I am in confusion to whom to trust as everyone has their own schemes and cons while i googled it.

Any suggestions and recommendations?

Hi everyone!

I’m going into grade 11 this year and Waterloo Comp Eng is my dream program. I’ve been reading about the AIF and I’m really curious to hear what current students remember putting on theirs.

For those of you in Comp Eng (or even CS/SE), what kind of experiences did you include? I know for med students it’s common to volunteer at hospitals — is there an equivalent for engineering? Like job experience, coding/tech projects, clubs, or other extracurriculars that you felt really helped?

I’d also love to know if it’s worth putting a lot of effort into things like coding clubs, STEM/STEAM clubs, or robotics clubs. Do those kinds of activities stand out, or are there other things that admissions seems to value more?

Any advice for someone in high school who’s trying to prepare would mean the world — thank you so much for taking the time to share your stories 💛

Thoughts? Am i the only one cooked 😭💀

Evening, I was wondering if anyone knows the story of the wall on the 7th hole on the course. When I was a teen (mid 90s), it was known as the black church. Pre golf course, of course.

Any info would be greatly appreciated

Welp, should i quit uni

Lost Meta Ray-Ban Glasses – Free Photoshoot Reward 📸

Hey everyone,

I lost my Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses (black frame, Rauban style). I had left them on the back of my car boot, and they must have either fallen off while I was driving or someone might have picked them up.

I know it’s tough, but I still have a little hope that they might turn up.

👉 If anyone finds or returns them to me, I’d be more than happy to give you a free photoshoot session (portraits, lifestyle, or whatever you’d like). I’m a photographer, so it’s the least I can do as a thank-you.

These glasses mean a lot to me, and I’d be super grateful for any help.

Thank you! 🙏

Thoughts? Honestly, after that... holy smokes. I think I'll be lucky to get 30% on that final.

hi everyone,I lost my Meta (Ray-Ban) smart glasses yesterday and I’m really hoping someone might have come across them. I had placed them on the back side of my car boot and completely forgot. There’s a chance they either fell off while I was driving or someone might have picked them up.

They are Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses, black frame

I know it’s a long shot, but if anyone has seen or found them, please let me know. These glasses are really important to me and I would be so grateful to get them back.

Thank you so much for your help!

My partner and I are looking for a co-ed indoor soccer team to join in the KW area. If anyone needs an additional guy and girl to fill your team please let me know! We haven’t played on a team in years but we are semi- decent and played competitive in our younger years :)

I was wondering if anyone has heard back about the math IA position? They said they’d be sending out offers in mid-August, but I haven’t seen anything yet...

I thought it would be nice for me to warn anyone who wants to rent at this place. The management is ABSOLUTELY horrible and the dryer was broke for half the 1-year lease and they didn’t bother to fix it because it “wasn’t included in the lease” (which is a lie btw). It’s also really ugly, you can get a better place for the amount we paid (my roommate and I payed 810.21 for the double rooms)

EDIT: the laundry facilities aren’t included in the lease, but I read on the LTB website that a landlord should maintain any facilities that they provide for their tenants so I still think I have a case idk

I'm the founder of an early-stage startup in silicon valley, and our goal is be the Roblox of AI companions. We want to allow people to create their own real-time AI characters, similar to Neuro-sama.

We have a last-minute spot open for a co-op student (full-stack software engineer role) to come build with us for the fall term (this is a remote role). We're looking for someone who has shown prior interest in this space (either built something similar or passionate user of similar apps).

Please DM me if that sounds like you!

The Council Round-Up is back this week with updates on: Waterloo Region's newest regional councillor, a potential new home for the City of Waterloo Museum, some concerning issues with Cambridge encampments, Kitchener's Digital Strategy, and more. citified.substack.com/p/the-council-round-up-aug-2025

1. Can you sublet the unit?
2. Has anyone seen the new floor they renovated? Any details like bathroom to tenant ratio?

I feel like I'm matching the type of employee they want to do. I keep failing the screening calls and interviews, and I have no idea where I messed up. I don't know what I did wrong. I've had interviews where I knew I failed (I couldn't answer technical questions, or I just didn't like the job) but these weren't like that. I answered the coding questions correctly, asked meaningful questions, and tried to sell myself as a good candidate. I literally have no clue why I'm failing. What are not so obvious reasons why an interviewer might reject you?

hello! anyone have any recommendations for where I can find the best homemade cinnamon buns? thanks!

how do you make friends in this program after you move in?

for people in this program, how do you make friends after moving in?

The title says it all, fucked up 129 a second time as a BBA student. Can I take it a third time or do I need to petition? I'm assuming I can't progress to second year and take my courses. Can I still take electives or upper year courses that don't require 129 as a prerequisite? Do I take a year off anyways?

She has few reviews on uwflow so I’m wondering if anyone has had her and their experience

I want to get a portrait of 7 people done (hopefully before Christmas) but haven’t had much luck finding an artist. Any suggestions would be awesome! Ideally drawing or painting.

Hi all, I’m (29F) looking for a stable that offers beginner/novice lessons. I have a few years’ experience (English and Western; private and semi-private lessons, just riding recreationally, not competing), but it’s been about 15 years since I last seriously rode. While Google has shown me a good number of stables around, wondering if anyone has any personal experience with good stables in the region? No particular budget - just looking to get a sense as to what’s out there. Willing to pay more for quality. Thanks!

I dropped my right AirPod on the way to M3 from DC😭 Please message me if anyone found one in campus. This is the last location 3 hour ago

Hey everyone! I’m a Grade 11 student really curious about the Computational Math program at UW. From what I understand, it seems like a perfect mix of Applied Math and Computer Science, which is what i dont in university and post university, also wondering what the program is actually like in practice are the courses more theory-heavy (prefered), or do they focus on practical problem-solving and programming? I’m also curious about the workload compared to pure Math or CS courses, how much coding and algorithm work is involved, and whether there are opportunities for research, projects, or internships. also is it possible to do a double major in something like stats and comp math since I wanna do something quant related post undergrad. any info helps :)
