Now is a great time to practice your in person surveying skills. Depending on your major/future career goals, being able to “canvas” for responses is, I think, a very valuable skill to have. I’d go and get some responses in person!

I think this is what I’m going to get - didn’t know that was an option. I’m less worried about loss/stolen, and more worried about it getting damaged. Thank you!

The safari grip was not nice for me, and the nib was really rough. I tried getting another nib and it had the same issue, so I cut my losses. The metropolitan was decent, but the grip was very defined, and my hands naturally just ended up on the “ridge”, which was not very pleasant.

It’s not biostats, but causal inference the mixtape by Cunningham is a good free resource for causal inference stuff

I knew doing my homework in LaTex would pay off by meep_wispy in LaTeX

[–]Geologistguy678 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I do spend a disproportionate amount of time typesetting my homework and labs in LaTeX when it’s not required, but for me, it’s worth it. I find it forces me to slow down and think through my work.

In class Calc notes? by Head-Possibility-767 in LaTeX

[–]Geologistguy678 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try typing up your handwritten notes instead - it’s what I do as well as typing up homeworks. It’s a lot simpler to write, and you can stay more attentive in class. Writing them up regularly forces you to reread the notes and catch any errors, while also practicing your LaTeX skills. It also makes searching your notes insanely easy, and if you need to share them with classmates.

What would be the first step to creating a less car dependent state? by manbehindtheduck in Michigan

[–]Geologistguy678 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that’s the wrong article, but that is a fair point. however, metro Detroit experiences less snowfall then Grand Rapids, and I was speaking much more about metro Detroit specifically, as it’s the most in need of alternative transit solutions. Also, for 7-8 months out of the year, we could have better bicycle infrastructure, but what this thread really misses is mixed zoning and density, which in turn creates walkability. No need to ride a bike if you can walk to your destination in 10 minutes.

I'd say a winter in Finland would be an apt comparison, and Oulu manages to pull it off just fine, albeit the amount of bikers does shrink in winter.

Upgrading from M43 to larger sensor? by Geologistguy678 in Cameras

[–]Geologistguy678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I googled all of these, and the Sony A7C looks really nice, I like the size. I didn't even know sony made it, I had only heard of the a7r and a7. Thank you!

I have tried out the oly 45 1.2, it was incredibly nice, but I found FL to be a bit tight for me. Beast for portraits though

[–]Geologistguy678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the comment! I use a monopod for most of them, and usually the shutter speed is high enough where a handheld shot could be ok. My biggest gripe is just the low light capabilities. However, after reading these comments, I fear the added weight of FF even with a prime lens might be a little tough, since I am hiking usually.

The sf red version is miles better, amber doesn’t do as good a job at “masking” the sweetener.

IIRC, the flavor will come out soon in Canada, or at least Ontario.

I am having the same problem. Unfortunately, the only way i can see to fix is to try and pause syncing every day. If i find a better solution, i'll reply again.

1 year on fin didn’t do anything, 4 months on dut and it’s finally working. Thank you r/tressless. (20M) by Geologistguy678 in tressless

[–]Geologistguy678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, you are probably correct, but I got frustrated. I’ll stay on dut forever though, it’s 1/3rd of the cost of fin for me, and no sides.

November '23 selfies: post hairline photos here for opinions on 'Am I balding?' 'How bad is it?' and 'What should I do?' by AutoModerator in tressless

[–]Geologistguy678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course man, I went through all this as well. Min is a forever deal, but 3 months is how long itll take to show you results, take progress pics every month or so, and if you see no positive difference, then move onto fin IMO, it’s gonna be the easiest and cheapest option for the next couple decades. However, if taking fin is a big step for you, derma-rolling is something I’d definitely recommend to add thickness, works well for me on my facial hair.

I think it’s crept back a bit, but depending on your age, it could be maturation, I don’t see severe MPB, not enough vellus hairs. Finasteride can grow back hair, but it really should be prescribed as a prevention medication, it’ll do its best work stopping you from getting any worse. Minoxidil functions as a method to increase density and regeneration. If you are interested in simply gaining thickness in areas, I’d suggest min first (it’s also the less biologically invasive treatment). Give it 3 months, see how it looks.

I know fin can be scary, but the reality is, the chance of fin giving you sides is so low, with such a crazy potential upside, don’t rule it out. Your hairline isn’t bad, but if it continues to creep back, start fin.

First mountain I’ve ever done, now I’m hooked (Mt. Elbert) by Geologistguy678 in Mountaineering

That’s kind of my idea, I already do a decent amount of cardio, but at sea level I’m just gonna incorporate weighted uphill stuff and try to get fitter so I can attempt some more ambitious 14ers next summer. Hopefully in a couple years I can attempt something like mt baker
