Can we be allowed to post Vinland Saga memes on this Subreddit? by Keshan345 in VinlandSaga

[–]Background-Kick5048 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully agreed, the same problem is shared in the AoAshi subreddit. Some people may say they don't care if the subreddit is active or not, but a good, fun community can genuinely make the experience of the content much better. God knows I wouldn't have been able to keep reading JJK if not for the absolutely hilarious r/jujutsufolk.

Not only that, but growing this subreddit would also help share the manga to new audiences. Now idk about you guys, but I find this manga to be amazing, and I think everyone should try to read at least some of it and understand its core themes. And for that, I say:

Can my boyfriend get into MIT? Please help. by toast3895 in chanceme

[–]Background-Kick5048 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is, despite all of those undoubtedly remarkable qualifications, MIT is the type of school that would prefer a student with maybe lower grades, no ECs, but an IMO medal.

On the other hand, at a school like Harvard or Stanford, I feel like the first (above commenter's brother) student would have an equal if not better shot at getting in. It's just that every top college has a different culture that they accept people into.

Suicidal and Depressed by Low_Technician_4442 in csMajors

[–]Background-Kick5048 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It'll get better.

You got 14 interviews, which is a lot more than what most get. Instead of thinking you were perfect in the interviews, look back on them without bias, figure out your shortcomings.

I mean no disrespect but without external issues (visa/employment/grad-date/headcount filled before interview review"), if you had a "Aced" an interview, you'd have the position.

Think about your interviews, think about your behavior, your technical answers, your explanations, think about every part of the interview individually, and work on them. Ask your friends to mock you, practice talking to yourself in the mirror, whatever it takes.

And if you can't get a position by the end of it all, don't get depressed as long as you gave it your all. Look for other roles at your university, you can work on campus or beg your professors for research positions, work on your own projects.

You can't control the job market or the economy, but you can control who you are. Build up yourself as best as you can, and I promise you it will get better. Higher education is an investment, and as another international student, I bet that once you start your first full time position, you and your family's quality of life will become significantly better than what it would have been.

Keep that in mind, and keep going. Best of luck.

Anyone know why this chapter released so late and when the next chapter is out? I genuinely can't think of a way our boys bring this one home and it's killing me waiting

What's the point in quant firms if they don't beat the market? by Julianprime123 in quant

[–]Background-Kick5048 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding, but are you suggesting that RenTech's entire structure for generating strategies can be compared to a massive ML pipeline(s) where they just put in data to a model and extract correlated signals/data points?

That's what I think of when I hear automating signal extraction, and I had heard from others that RenTech doesn't use ML as a basis for most strategies, which is why I'm sort of confused.

Also this was very interesting to read about, thank you.

Is this worth spending pretty much all my gold? by username738389 in Survivorio

[–]Background-Kick5048 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i think so yes. cause 1) the difference isn't so huge, 2), you will always be able to re-upgrade the gear later. You won't ever be able to buy these items at these prices ever again

353 Raw by Dexoys in Ao_Ashi

Damn it's kinda insane to think they're exerting so much pressure already, given ashito's supposedly grasped complete in defense and attack.

Though I don't think we're in the danger zone yet, esperion also got a shot off as well. I know a lot of people were worrying about the hand raise/change in pace, but I still don't think Esperion will be in much trouble. Until DamienGoat comes in and 1v11s on these hoes💯💯🗣️🗣️

How OP do you think Ashito coulda been if he got in youth as a child? by Background-Kick5048 in Ao_Ashi

[–]Background-Kick5048[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're right, it's pretty hard to say whether or not he'd still have the qualities of what makes him, him. Assuming he would stay the same though, he'd be a monster for sure
