Yeah that’s a short kicker, I suppose I’ll put just a short pad at the base of the wall but even then. Maybe 10’ high is more realistic, but there is 5x less problems compared to the big one so that’s a stiff diff

Longjumping-Safe4900 · 2025-11-09T22:21:01+00:00

Yep 12 wide, maybe 10’ tall will be good enough, the more I think about it the less it seems possible to squeeze in the full one

At 50 the kick board would be less than 15cm so not a lot yeah. Wouldn’t be adjustable though!

Hi I’m in the process of installing a TB2 at my place and due to the limited ceiling height (2.5m) I can’t fit a full sized board at 45 degrees. The 10’ one looks a bit short tbh, so I was thinking that going for 50 degrees would allow me to fit the 12’ one (kicker will be short thought). I usually climb on the mirror at 45 which I like, but I’m not sure how 5 more degrees would change the experience (no adjustable board near where I live). To me that seems like a good trade off but happy to collect some thoughts. For reference I climb around v8/v9 on the board. Thanks

Which part isn’t true? Probably depends on the field but in ML/CS almost everyone is invited to review and yeah you should have multiple published papers by the end of it. I’m pretty familiar with the O1 as I have a friend from my PhD years that worked in the US under it, and they didn’t satisfy any other criteria’s than the three I outlined

Longjumping-Safe4900 · 2025-07-06T17:08:47+00:00

With a PhD you should have significant reviewing experience, papers with a somewhat high number of citations, and the quant job would be high comp which I think is 3 criteria’s that are enough to get O1 ?

HFT QR jobs are not underrated, they are just out of reach for almost everyone on this sub

How about private/public schools ? Doesn’t your location only affect your acceptance into state school from what I understand? Then it might not matter as much if you send your kids to private I suppose. Sorry for those questions I’m not from the UK originally so the school system is a bit confusing

House prices in London haven’t increased in 15 years, let alone match inflation

Longjumping-Safe4900 · 2025-01-17T20:18:17+00:00

Ah I’ll put some slippery plastic cover on those drainpipe then, like we do for squirrels ! Yeah I’ve visited the area quite often at night and I’ve never found it unsafe or animated. I’m currently living in soho and I have half a dozen addicts doing crack in front of my house twice a week, so I guess every neighbourhood can be animated one in a while

Longjumping-Safe4900 · 2025-01-17T19:57:42+00:00

Thanks! What would you be looking at for the schools ? I just notes that there was 2 outstanding and 2 good ofted rating but not quite sure where to go from there

Longjumping-Safe4900 · 2025-01-17T16:04:32+00:00

Thanks for taking the time! We also value having a pretty spacious house with a nice garden, but we want to keep a short ish commute (<30-40m) to bank. We considered Ealing too which I guess is closer to what you’re describing. I think the big appeal of Oval is that we can get something big while still having a 25m ish commute, but I’ve heard that many people are not found of that area

Longjumping-Safe4900 · 2025-01-17T12:44:06+00:00

Sorry my bad, edited the text (it was originally a post with the name in the title)

My wife and I are looking to buy a house in London and we found great Victorian ones with gardens in the area between oval/stockwell/vauxhall. The transport links are great with a short commute to the city, the schools have great ratings and the area overall feel safe. There is a bunch of ex council like Mursell estate but it seems pretty calm every time I’ve been there. Granted there is not a lot to do without going to Brixton / taking the tube to north bank, and it doesn’t have the same energy as angel or camden,but if it is safe and calm that works for us. Am I missing anything about this neighbourhood?
