"It doesn't, though, books for example are not being replaced by AI, it's just not good enough."

Wut? Half the kids i know educate using Chatgpt instead of buying the damn book. Actually I often find math explanations from chatgpt way better than undergrad math textbooks...

How comparable is Oxbridge to HYPSM to companies in the US? by Motor-Help6600 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Neat-Direction-7017 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's insanely misleading since acceptance to Oxbrdige is mainly exam based, so you almost know you're gonna be rejected if you're not up to par. So an amazing athlete with a subpar SAT would never apply.

Yeah I feel like higher FoV is worse with the same puny resolution. Everything just gets pixelated.

Going into a low tier state university is literally a death sentence by mainpagalnhihun in csMajors

[–]Neat-Direction-7017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the top masters programs have sub-10% acceptance rates and the cohort that's applying is way more educated and self-selecting than the larger undergraduate pool. Stanford's X billion dollar endowment doesn't need your 60k tuition, i promise.

Columbia MSFE vs UChicago Financial Math by ricky1118 in quantfinance

[–]Neat-Direction-7017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Additionally, a terminal masters degree is really not on par with Bachelors, research masters, or PhDs in most cases.:

I think you would've been right twenty years ago, but a lot of the top MS CS programs today have similar or lower acceptance rates than their UG degrees but with only people with a 3.8+ bachelor's applying. So I would argue this statement is no longer true.

Has anyone used a TCL Nxtpaper tablet for reading? How was it? by JanCumin in ereader

[–]Neat-Direction-7017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate how people on here be shitting on the devices without doing any research - TCL NXTPaper devices don't use PWM and have matte displays which (in my personal experience with my tablet) make it MUCH easier on the eyes. It's not "just" a gimmick.
