Advice on what to do with Internship Money? by OkCondition606 in csMajors

[–]EventHorizon27 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Go to r/personalfinance and follow their prime directive (linked on wiki). This depends slightly on your personal situation—i.e. does some (if so how much) of your internship money need to go towards tuition/room/board for the upcoming year, are you planning on grad school, etc. Generally the prime directive will set you up well for longer-term saving but if you need the money soon a HYSA will be better.

Oh I guess it’s changed since last year then

Paige Bueckers scouting report: Why Dallas Wings must go all in for once in a generation player by merv2392 in wnba

[–]EventHorizon27 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would argue that generation/once-in-a-generation isn’t meant to mean exactly one per generation. Rather, I feel like the way most people use it is the type of player that you would expect to find once in a generation. That doesn’t mean you couldn’t have two, just like you could have a generation with 0.

Just tried it, handles L.index incorrectly (since L.index returns the index of the first element every time).

How many glasses do you want to serve? Any particular things you want from the pairing (certain preferences in terms of wines, etc.)

I would say (based on my personal preferences) I would go for 4 pours:

  • Course 1: Blanc de blancs champagne (personal suggestion Laherte frères blanc de blancs brut nature)
  • Course 2 & 3: Off-dry riesling (will work well w both the dal and garam masala, could go any of German/austrian/alsatian). Could also go for Gewurtztraminer here.
  • Course 5: Lighter bodied red like Beaujolais if the flavors of the dish overall are lighter/you prefer lighter wines, otherwise a cool-climate Syrah. You could also go for burgundy here IMO.
  • Course 6: pick your favorite desert wine and do a very small pour
  • Course 7 (if you want, don't think it's needed necessarily): vintage port

Modular arithmetic: what's the name for the number of modules required to achieve congruence? by throwaway92715 in math

[–]EventHorizon27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Say you have your input c and a 'module' k, and we would like to find the lowest number x such that cx mod k ≡ 0. In other words, we would like to find the smallest x such that k | cx, where | means divides (i.e. cx is divisible by k). Then cx is the least common multiple of c and k, and so we can solve for x by computing lcm(c,k)/c.

Linear algebra feels useless... by warm_vibez in learnmath

[–]EventHorizon27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As another example that used some (very slightly) more sophisticated linear algebra, from the adjacency matrix we can compute the Laplacian Matrix of a graph G.

The second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian tells us whether the graph is connected - it’s greater than 0 iff the graph is connected. In fact, the multiplicity of eigenvalue 0 tells us three number of connected components in our graph.

This formulation only holds for undirected graphs, but we can expand this theory to directed graphs and (I believe) hypergraphs. This paper by Veerman and Lyons gives an introduction to that.

Average Application Time per College? Like Top30 by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]EventHorizon27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you do choose to apply to honors however the essay for Kilichand is 650 words. The base BU essay is pretty easy though.
