@AlwaysConfused Some user named Gerry informed me that such a feature is already present in all chartrooms. Not an exact count-down timer, but while editing a message after a considerable time an alert displays that you have 10 sec left. I was talking about that. I think it's fine to have that notification as we/I don't really need a timer counting down because the chatroom doesn't have long messages that often.

And about comments, I've no opinion, I don't need a timer there. If you want or fell that could be important you may post an answer on the concerned meta post.

Thinking of shifting to bio? :P

user228700

@blue Again, it's not Biology in its crudest form, but something like that, yes.

IISC Bangalore has a dedicated program from CN

Yes, but only Masters & PhD.

I don't think it is a good idea to specialize at the UG level

Hello everyone!

user228700

@blue Very limited universities offer that course. I want to know which UG course is best suited to pursue a career in this field.

user228700

@BerryHolmes Hi! :-)

user228700

Psychology, Biology, Computer Science, that's what I'm hearing...

@Kaumudi.H You need expert advice

user228700

Exactly.

Berry Holmes

@Kaumudi.H Thanks. I usually hang out at Chem.SE, but today I had a stupid question which I'm afraid I couldn't deduce so I asked it on here.

It's a field where very few people work

@blue Yes, I know. Hopefully, I'll be able to find something.

user228700

Bye!

user228700

@BerryHolmes Ah, OK :-) I don't know any Biology, I'm afraid.

user228700

I usually hang out at the Physics S.E

Berry Holmes

@Kaumudi.H I don't know biology either.

user228700

:-P I see.

Good luck with that question, then!

Berry Holmes

Physics! That's really cool, I've heard of someone there who takes fourier transforms of cats.

*Accidentally though.

@Tytoalba Just testing the feature. Not calling someone. Used continuation since the mentioned feature is being tested. Test done. No countdown clock seen.
