Do you want a break from studying for the exams, take part in a fun competiotion, the opportunity to learn more about working in the finance business in London and free food? Today at 12:00 the registration for Jane Streets Estimathon on the 24th of october opens on the website/f-app. Dont forget to register both to the f-guilds event as well as Jane Streets registration form, i.e. you have to register in 2 different places. Below is a description of the game:
Register as an individual* here by Monday, 21st October @ 13:00pm CET.
The Estimathon is a mind-bending mixture of maths and trivia. In teams, you’ll attempt 13 Fermi problems in 30 minutes, ranging from totally trivial to positively Putnamesque. Be prepared to come up with the best set of confidence intervals! Sample problems include:
How many computers were connected to the Internet on January 1, 1989?
How many YouTube videos have more than 1 billion views?
What is the bandwidth beneath the Atlantic Ocean?
Typically, when we come to campus, we bring swag. Since we aren’t meeting in person, we will provide attendees with access to order one of our 2024 T-shirts following the event!
🍁Hello everyone🍁

What is it really like to be a member of the Union Representative Council? What does the Representative Council do and how does it affect me? Read the interview with Malcolm.
Do you want to run for a position or know someone who would be a good fit for the Representative Council? Nominate via tlth.se/fmval until November 3rd.
If you have any questions, contact valnamnden@tlth.se
INTERVIEW
Why should someone apply to the Representative Council?
Because it’s fun, educational, and incredibly rewarding.
Why did YOU apply to the Representative Council?
I applied as a first-year student because I think it’s important to have the full spectrum of students at LTH represented in the Council. It’s also an incredibly educational and unique role considering the insight you gain into a large organisation.
What have you done in the Representative Council?
A lot of fun things! What I found most rewarding personally was when we appointed the board and sabbatical officers, decided on the budget framework, and addressed various issues related to the companies owned by Teknologkåren.
What is the most rewarding aspect of the Representative Council?
Meeting a number of engaged and talented people who are passionate about their work.
Do you have to be well-informed about the union to join the Representative Council?
Not beforehand. You are elected as a representative for the students, and it’s useful to have an outside perspective. Make sure to read up thoroughly before the meetings and ask any questions you have, and you’ll do great. After all, you are a technology student!
Howdy,
The Educational Council and LiBu are investigating the guild’s stress levels to find out what you are stressed about and how we can help you. We are doing this through the survey below, which would be great if you could fill out, especially for your own benefit.
Those who complete the survey and are registered for Study Night will get free food tonight. DON'T FORGET that you need to be able to show that you have completed the survey. So don’t close the tab when you have submitted your respons.
Hi there beautiful guild!
Over the past year, work has been done to improve and simplify both the guild's internal communication and information dissemination to all members. With this, we will from now on move to Mattermost as the new primary platform for communication and leave Facebook behind.
We see countless advantages to this, including:
We, therefore, encourage all members to download the Mattermost app and then click on the link below to create an account and join. https://mm.fsektionen.se/signup_user_complete/?id=ob6rir8wefnytnx6czgqgzy81w&md=link&sbr=sa
If you need to enter a server address, it is: mm.fsektionen.se
Once on Mattermost, you should make sure to set up your notifications so that you receive all important information. There you can also browse our channels and join the ones that interest you.
If you encounter any problems or have questions about the swap itself, you can contact our Head of App and Web development Benjamin Halasz at spindelforman@fsektionen.se
As you probably understand, there will now be a transition period during which we will use both Facebook and Mattermost, before a complete stop of postings on Facebook. Therefore, please join Mattermost as soon as possible, so that you don't miss important information or fun things that happen in the guild. The website will continue to be used as usual.
Hugs, hugs, hugs,
The board feat. Ministry of Truth (all credit to our Webmasters)

Tonight at 23:59 the election for positions at the guild assembly closes. This is your last chance to candidate for these positions and get the chance to be interviewed by the Nomination Committee who later will present their nominations. The election of these positions will be held at the Guild Assembly the 18th of November.
The election for positions that are elected by the Board will still be open and closed later this fall.
Note that the proposed meeting order contains important changes from previous meetings. Notably, only candidates nominated by the Nomination Committee and candidates who have notified the Nomination Committee of a counter-nomination after the nominations have been published and no later than November 15, 23:59 are entitled to run. For the best chance to be nominated and elected, you should apply now!
You can find all the info as well as nominate friends and apply yourself at the website: https://fsektionen.se/en/val

Whale greeting,
The Nomination Committee
At 12:15 tomorrow (Wednesday 9 October) the opportunity of your reading period will present itself. That's when we will (symbolically) nail the note for the ladybug registration for lp2 on the notice board in the Hilbert corridor. You won't want to miss it!
As a ladybug you are responsible for keeping the cafe open one day a week for a study period and as well as being great fun there are lots of other benefits:
Benefits:
Meet lots of lovely people in Hilbert and have super fun!
6 Hilbertsandwiches™ a week to share sibling-wise between the other ladybugs on your day, or 5 Hilbertsandwiches™ a week as a single ladybug.
Infinitely enumerable cups of coffee or tea throughout the study period
A reasonable amount of fika each day of the study period (breakfast is fika!)
Deciding the music played in Hilbert
Thanks as for any other functionary post, ie shifts and café thanks but also the epic café party with the other cafes at LTH
The guild will be happy since it has ladybugs
Me and Nina will be very happy as we are not without ladybugs <3
No previous experience is required to be a ladybug. If it seems tempting, just either sign up yourself or get together with a friend or two and sign up on the list that will be posted in the Hilbert corridor tomorrow at 12:15. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email vicecafe@fsektionen.se
See you in the café!
Hugs, the café masters <33
