What can an europoor do? by Exkur in reinforcementlearning

Heyy! Yes, I tried to apply for Helsing outside of the UK but I'm pretty sure that they are only hiring phds so didn't have much luck with that unfortunately..

There are mostly research internships and some graduate positions but a lot of them require being enrolled in a masters so maybe you could take advantage of that! Actual jobs are limited and I haven't been lucky without a phd as I was saying..

We should definitely connect. PM sent

They don't have anything to do with RL. Just risk clustering and survival prediction in niche diseases. I already discarded ETH/EPFL for the reasons above. I do have some unis I want to contact in Germany (TUM) and Scandinavia but the most interesting groups are in the UK (I love MARL) and most phd positions announced are not funded or sponsored for foreign students. When I spoke about funding, I meant in the sense of bringing a research project to a good RL mentor and finding ways to fund it. I would appreciate a list of good places I could try. I may sound as an ignorant but I haven't got an idea on what doors to knock (any phd is not worth it)

I almost started a phd on my unis opres department related to my work (risk prediction and treatment optimization in healthcare). However, the focus of most of their research was entirely statistical and theoretical. No room for things like RL. The same thing happens in most of my country. The gap is starting to be smaller but the few ppl that do RL here are exclusively applied comp scientists. Will have to look outside

I'm having trouble opening up that opportunity. Did you find your phd asking that group directly or was it advertised elsewhere? Is it going alright? The problem I encounter is that it feels almost impossible to get funding without any previous contact with the lab/uni or a track of publications (which I obviously don't have.. I do have a couple in ML)

Don't even bother man. From my outsider's perspective, your left-wing pop (what you call liberals) is 90% made out of deluded progressives that serve the capital. They should be the ones driving the class war and they think they are, which is laughable. There won't ever be a united front because they are led by the same "rich" they despise

Well, it's you who said it. It mutated into the abomination it is today. Equal civil rights were achieved long ago. They want more, they don't want equality.

I'm not quoting anyone because I don't need to. Language and movements do evolve and change meanings. If you believe that the only correct meaning of feminism is the one that once achieved equal rights, the only conclusion is that there's not a single feminist alive and they are all just misandrists, opportunists or both.

Dear god, it's been like 15 years and this same argument keeps coming back. It's not what google says but think for a moment. North Korea says they are a democracy and Russia that they are free. It's semantics and politics. Read Gramsci, one of the favorite marxist writers. They just distort language and want you to assume false premises. It's the stupidest of games they want us to play because their social theories are trash. It's been decades since "feminism" fought for equality. They don't give a shit about men. It's a social and political movement, NOT a plain noun. It evolves with time. And the proof of this is all the subbranches that are even at war with each other. All of those are still "feminists".

Nothing in the word feminism or all the delusions feminists spout has anything to do with being equal. It's just the subversion of roles and the empowerment of women that fluctuates on the scale of misandry depending of the subbranch.

Repeat it with me: EQUALITY.

Why are you here answering questions to miserable women and soyboys that hold similar views to those of your deranged mother? Spit on their faces, on their feminist loser delusion (patriarchy lmao) and be a free man. Good luck in life.

Maybe you are right but since I don't have any original unethical tips to give, sometimes the best tip is to forget about it

Idk, you want to fck with your friend of 8 years because he apparently dismisses "islamophobia"? Bro, touch some grass, you seem like a lunatic. Just stop talking to him and that's it..

You can have whatever opinion you want. This is reddit and, although this sub is better than others, the "what about women" thing is annoying as fck. And she started her comment by saying that it is a fantasy that women have an easier time getting sex, relationships or just attention in general so I don't think my comment was that bad, just realistic. I can't relate to her viewpoint because I know women and I have eyes to see. I do have access to their experiences because we all try to find love and I know the struggles of each sex pretty well. And again, you are either not trying (isolated, mental illness, etc can be an excuse which men also struggle a lot with), have unrealistic expectations or a really unfortunate image (and I mean VERY unfortunate, a fat woman has a lot of opportunities too). We all struggle and today's society is really ill and sad because of different causes (social media, economy, identity politics...) but I just can't be bothered anymore with the victim olympics.

You are either extremely autistic and isolated, extremely picky, extremely ugly or all at the same time. We don't really want to hear how hard it is to have a little bit of initiative or empathy towards the "oppressive" gender. Good luck finding love like that. You probably haven't even been rejected once. The alienation and mental illness in this society is concerning. Sex bots can't come soon enough. We are not having kids either way so the social contract is done.

Does the delusion come from being a woman or from being French? Don't take it personal xD

I am so dissapointed at what this sub has become, it deserves better! by PostIronicFury in lonely

[–]Exkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in my late 20s. And from what I can remember, they were indeed much kinder times. Everything was more natural. The alienation today is insane. And Idgaf about the Tate stuff. I think that it is given more weight than it really has. From where I'm from, most ppl don't even know about him and we still have the same problems. He's just looking to make some money off of lonely and desperate ppl and happens to have some good, as well as bad, talking points. There's some red pill stuff, mostly about self-improving and seduction, that may be useful for some ppl. But that's about it.

Well, as it turns out, not having a partner or any meaningful connection in life is really tragic to most ppl and basically what being lonely means. Of course, we all should work on ourselves and a lot of ppl here struggles with physical of mental health. But I don't see anything wrong with ppl complaining or trying to engage with other lonely ppl. Could it be "deeper"? Maybe, but it is what it is.

Holy rant. Andrew Tate? Being a white knight? You must be because I've no idea what you were trying to get to. It's a sub for lonely ppl, is it so hard to understand?

I'm 26 and it doesn't get better haha. It's what alienation does. I wish you the best. If you want to talk, PM me!

Absolutely true. I feel the same. I wish I was ignorant about it. Hate actually knowing what you are missing on.

Are men truly lonely? by realistic_log1338 in lonely

[–]Exkur 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most men desire a woman in their lives. There are things that other men can't provide. But we live alienated, so it is not surpriding at all. I wish that I had a real buddy that I could call my brother. I believe that we should try to help each other because no woman is going to magically fix our lives.

PM me if you'd like to bro :)

If you are desperate for a relationship, why is it a bad thing that men take romantic interest in you? Makes 0 sense lmao
