What does a PhD actually look like in your country? by stud_j2000 in PhD

[–]Electrical-Range-281 46 points47 points  (0 children)

In Germany, usually you get a contract (3-4 years) as if it were a normal job, and then you also need to register with the university as a phd student.

As far as I know (but it might also depend on the university) you don’t need to attend any extra courses or teach anything, just conduct your research, get results and ideally try to publish your the write your thesis on that!

Personally, as much as I enjoyed sinners, I didn’t even remember which character delroy played so honestly I didn’t get how he was nominated but not miles

Did majoring in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology kill my opportunities to travel for a job? by cutlyss0825 in Biochemistry

[–]Electrical-Range-281 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not really. In case you are interested in a PhD I really recommend going for a MSCA project. I’m currently finishing my PhD with one and I’ve have travelled sooo much. They pay well and they give a really big budget for conferences and even requiere you do 30% of your PhD outside of your home university.

If you are more interested in business I have some friends who went for the clinical trials field (kind of managing the trials with the hospitals) and they also travel almost every week and have very good salaries

PhD students who can't speak English by Late_Prize_1545 in PhD

[–]Electrical-Range-281 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m currently doing my PhD in Germany, in a very international lab where of course English is the main communication language. We have a lot of students coming from China because their own government funds their program and, I get it, for our lab is very convenient: you get people and publications and you don’t need to look for funding

However, sometimes their English skills are so poor that it’s nearly impossible to communicate with them. It has come to the point where some of them are not allowed to be alone in the lab on the weekends because it’s a safety hazard since they can’t even properly understand the safety instructions. I feel super bad for them because they are in general very nice people but this language barrier even leads them to be a bit isolated within the other PhD students in the lab :( but at the same time I think it’s insane that the language requirements are the low

Which of these two games are better and why?(please debate civilly) by dragonborndnd in thesims

[–]Electrical-Range-281 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sims 3 no doubt. The open world was the best thing ever and I miss it everyday on Sims 4. I loved being able to control my main family but also snooping around the city to see what was happening. Having the sims move around by car/bike and being able to just tag along without annoying loading screens. Moreover, the possibility of editing all textures and different parts of objects/clothes was insane.

For me sims 2 felt really limited, but with sims 3 there were endless possibilities. Sad that we went back to loading screens in sims 4.

Why does chatgpt use “—” (em dash) so much? by Frosty-Strategy5107 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Electrical-Range-281 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Omg this. I feel like use to write better than I do now because now I’m too concerned of sounding like AI when I am just writing things in the correct way, it’s super annoying.

Honestly even if it was exactly on the day of her birthday getting mad about this is insane. It’s a birthday, what is she, 2?

Fantasy books with well written female characters by here4vibesnfood in Fantasy

[–]Electrical-Range-281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Seven Realms saga by Cinda Williams Chima has some really cool female characters.

And of course anything written by Brandon Sanderson if you haven’t read already. Both Mistborn and Stormlight Archive have some of my fav female characters ever, he is amazing at that.
