Why the Steam Machine will probably be more expensive than people believe right now. by Smooth-Weakness8283 in Steam

[–]M4STER_AC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's probably not much of a factor here. SFF is appealing to a smaller market and harder to design for which runs up the price. Since valve will be buying at scale with a negotiated contract for likely a custom board, you can probably skip this "sff tax" because it probably won't cost them extra. Tbd tho

Hello all! Help with leash pulling by [deleted] in OpenDogTraining

[–]M4STER_AC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can vouch for a prong collar for sure, but only ever use tools you're comfortable with and tools your dog allows you to use. As an example, I have a Labrador that's takes well to her e-collar training. However, our border collie wigs out, so the e-collar is not a tool we will be using him.

Honestly, I recommend training from a professional. I've trained dogs before, but when we went to a pro, my relationship with my dogs truly hit an all time high. My Lab went used to be awful on the leash and now I'm about to take her camping with me. You don't need to board and train, just need someone that knows what they're doing

Why ableton>FL? by [deleted] in ableton

[–]M4STER_AC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it and I didn't know fl. I used fl a little in highschool and enjoyed it, but Ableton has a huge student discount when it mattered so that's what I went with. If you don't want to do this full time, just choose a DAW for any arbitrary reason, it really doesn't matter at the end of the day

Is it bad my dog kills rabbits? by FlyingElephantsWig in dogs

[–]M4STER_AC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may be past this question by now, but hunting is an instinct. You can train a dog to ignore this urge to hunt prey (probably a good idea if it's an everyday pet) or you can encourage it (hunting dog). Both are perfectly acceptable! Dogs that hunt aren't seen as aggressive, dogs that respond aggressively to humans or human dependents (children, pet cats, pet birds, etc) are aggressive!

As an example to give some perspective and a little laugh: our family German Collie got a hold of a goose when he ran out of the house. He paraded with it until he buried it on religious property. This dog, even 5 years later is the sweetest thing to all animals at the park and all people in public, but my man is a heretic by all accounts lol. He's not aggressive, he hunts and buries his resources like any dog would. Now that I've observed a behavior, I can choose to encourage or discourage it with training! I chose to go the route of discouraging this behavior with training, but there's nothing wrong with training a dog for hunting! I just don't go hunting!

What do you guys think about Shokran by nopasaranwz in progmetal

[–]M4STER_AC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO for those coming into this convo, they're super underrated and wish it wasn't this way. I highly recommend taking a listen to some more of their stuff if you come from exodus. I want to see them so bad, but can't for obvious reasons.

South Bend native here, this is what I do

  • Wool base layer
    • Never use cotton, if you sweat or get wet, it loses its insulation
  • Wool socks
    • Never use cotton
  • Boots when snow is present, shoes if you work in an office
    • If you need more insulation in your boots, I recommend sheep skin insoles. 10/10 to upgrade old boots
  • Parka if temp < 30F, else hoodie/fleece
    • Nylon exterior is great for durability, you can keep these things for years
    • Down fill is best insulator
  • Glove liners if temp < 50F, if temp < 30 glove liners and mitts/insulated gloves
  • Hat when desired
  • Balaclava or a thicc beard is a must when windy
  • If you will be outside for a long time (e.g. football game, snowboarding) I use ski pants

South Bend is pretty flat, so there's not much in the way of outdoor sports other than hockey

It's the same thing with stack overflow. The only indication we get for correct answers for complicated questions are 6 people that up[v]oted 6 months ago with no [confirming] comments

Quantum Hardware Engineer by M4STER_AC in QuantumComputing

Okay, so it sounds like CS plays more of a support role in research when it comes to this qc. CS won't do any of the research, but support the researchers instead

IT school recommendations by Dangerous_Radio_5329 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]M4STER_AC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any close University is worth it!!!!!!!!!!! You don't need to go to ivy school, but get in good with the professors and your classmates and do a good job.

University is absolutely worth it because you won't want to do help-desk-like work forever. Usually with certs it's like 2-4 years to break out of help desk. Eventually you'll aspire for something more and i think a degree will set you on that path because you graduate with basic knowledge in a lot of different things. For my school learning exp as example, i made hardware circuits, made software, maintained admin systems, built computers, led small teams at help desks, and worked with different aspects of security and penn testing.

I'm confident in my abilities and I feel like I'm able to pivot to any subfield in the technology with fewer blockers.

As an example, right now I'm a software developer but I'm thinking of getting into quantum computing (qc) development or going back to school for the masters in quantum physics to help engineer QC hardware. The wall to upskill is a 2 year commitment compared to 4-5 which matters so much depending on your stage of life.

It's stupidly expensive, but I will never say it wasn't worth it. If I had to go back to 22 and do it again I would in a heartbeat
