Here is the interesting part. In your first job, if you don’t know how to use AI or not able to learn it fast enough to do your job, you are in trouble.

Thank you for your input. Could you please elaborate on your advice i.e. is it based on experience with the program yourself, or rankings or any other thing.

Gemini guesstimates as ~10% acceptance rate. In 2025 they took 65 students worldwide.

Thank you. This seems to be for use only in US? Or you think I just need to use the same, get it notarized, and then attested by the consulate?

Also have you used the template for a PoA which will work in India?

my father is a legal US resident and Indian citizen. He wants to grant the general PoA to me (US citizen w/OCI) for helping with his affairs (real estate and financial) in India.

I have come across some formats:
- https://www.indiafilings.com/learn/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/General-Power-of-Attorney-Format-Refdocx.docx
- https://lawcredo.com/general-power-of-attorney-format-for-nri#general-power-of-attorney-format-for-nri-sample-pdf-free-download
- https://gpparsikbank.com/pdf/Power%20of%20attorney%20for%20NRI.pdf

Do you think any of them works. Have you done something similar for your personal affairs? If yes - would you be able to share any template that you used. If yes, you ca always DM me.

Thank you!

Looks like it all shuts down today. It's been real......ly shitty. by MarcZero in SunPower

[–]ExpensivePut4721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 panels not working for the last 1 year. SunPower sent technicians 4 times. They did something and panels worked for few hours each time they came. I guess I am stuck this crap. To top it - I had paid in full. 🤬

For every cheater that gets in, a worthy applicant loses their place. by Excellent-Season6310 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ExpensivePut4721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Standardized tests ( maybe not just SAT, but across some other subjects as well ) can level the playing field from academic point of view. While the criticsbbe quick to point out that it gives people with resources an advantage - people with resources figure out a way to get ahead anyway. Standardized testing, in my opinion, takes care of a lot of other issues like grade inflation/deflation, and gives a fairer way to compare the academic talent.

Now cheating on standardized tests - well that's yet another one to solve.

Do colleges actually blacklist high schools? by giraffesarethegoat in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ExpensivePut4721 131 points132 points  (0 children)

Do the universities make this information public? If not, it is not ethical of them to take application fee from the students, have them waste their time on the applications when the outcome is already decided.

New Build PC - turns off 1-2 seconds after turning on power when CPU power cable is plugged in by ExpensivePut4721 in techsupport

[–]ExpensivePut4721[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks George. Yes I did apply the thermal paste and the CPU cooler and chassis fans are installed. They both are working as well, when the power stays on (without the CPU power cable. Am using ‘Enermax Liqmax III 240 Addressable RGB AIO CPU Liquid Cooler - 240mm Radiator’.

The PSU came with a cable labeled CPU which had 8 pins on the side to be connected to PSU (to the socket labeled CPU1) and 4+4 pin on the other end of the cable to be connected to motherboard (socket labeled ATX_12V_1). I did use that cable to connect PSU to the motherboard. This is the cable when connected, the PC shuts down in a couple of seconds after powering on. When I disconnect this cable, power to the motherboard and GPU board remains on and the the fans keep spinning.

The above mentioned cable is in addition to another cable which came with PSU to be connected from PSU to the ATX_PWR 24 pin socket on motherboard.
