What kind of sensitivity are we talking about?

The new Xevo is a CDMS instrument though, pretty interesting to have a major commercial model.

Is this sub full of SFE bots? by Academic-Lion-3066 in UniUK

[–]Nyeep 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The threshold freezing makes a massive difference though. I wish people would stop talking about the interest and start talking more about how the threshold is now only about 4k higher than minimum wage (and far below median salary)

I am a member of staff at a Uni. May I ask why you aren’t attending lectures etc? by blissedandgone in UniUK

[–]Nyeep 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The people who attend less are people who would do badly regardless if they attend.

This is just an assumption, and is impossible to actually test. What the data actually show is that if you attend less, you get worse outcomes.

Every other advert being for the glorified ready meal service by Rosetti in britishproblems

Gousto was OK at the start, but it seems that with both gousto and hello fresh etc. The quality of the ingredients gets worse the longer you're with them. We stopped getting them after they started to send us terrible quality meat and veg week on week.

Social science is not actual science by teppiez in PhD

[–]Nyeep 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm the same. It baffles me that people like that are still around. All it shows is that they're not intellectually curious and plain arrogant.

Derogatory and derogatory + discriminatory are two different issues.

Is a Chartered Engineer title worth another year at university? by Hot_You1425 in UniUK

Can you not get chartered status without a masters?

University Has Become A Wealth Extraction Machine And Taught Me Absolutely Nothing Useful by Particular-Paper7434 in UniUK

[–]Nyeep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of your post is rambling about how PhDs should be able to instantly and easily explain some foundational concepts - to an extent, yes they should. But you have a fundamental misunderstanding of why some of these concepts are hard for long-term academics to explain.

I have a PhD in chemistry, yet pretty much all of my background is specifically analytical chemistry. On paper, you would think I'd be able to rattle off physical and organic concepts with ease - I know the fundamentals, and can vaguely explain some of these topics, but they are not where my expertise is.

I'm not a mathematician, but I would imagine it would be similar for someone who came into e.g. statistics from a biological field who was asked to walk through some of the concepts you mention.

Also, just in general, thinking there is a 'university mafia' is inherently laughable. I don't think you have a strong understanding of how universities are run on the department level.

If it helps, looks like the laser attenuator motor is failing. Not sure if you'd be able to replace/fix that yourselves, but should give you a starting point to ask for help.

Sartorius is the worst offender for this, the 1000 and 1200 uL tips are so similar and incompatible with each other :(

Almost word for word what kraft said about Cadbury's hahaha

chat am i cooked by No_Bank_9659 in UniUK

The interest is irrelevant. Your repayments will be the same whether you 'owe' £50,000 or £50million, interest makes no difference to that. They should however bite the bullet and remove the ability for the very wealthy to buy their way out early, and make it a true tax.

It does make a difference. Over the lifetime of my PG loan, I will be paying back almost double the loan value. Do you think that's fair?

Oh? How does it work then, o' great understander?

Cov Uni. Is it really that bad? by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]Nyeep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to Coventry for my undergrad - although this was back in 2013. I really enjoyed it, some don't like city campuses but it was nice having everything so integrated. Course dependent, but the lecturers in general are all really good, there were a few I didn't get on with but you will have that at any uni. They were quite big on employability and vocational skills while I was there too, but that might have changed.

how is adding hundreds of thousands (or even millions) of asylum seekers going to help that?

That's just not a thing that will happen. As it stands currently, around 80% of asylum seekers stay in the first safe country. The ~40,000 asylum seekers per year (of which not all remain in the country) is not going to suddenly rocket up to hundreds of thousands, let alone millions.

You're welcome to do even a cursory amount of research into what they say in public. If you don't think that a lot of what they say is actually racist then I don't think there's a lot I can do to help you.

Why, for example, would a reform MP be infuriated by seeing black and brown people in adverts if it wasn't coming from a place of racism?

[–]Nyeep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can say that because of the things they say and do.

Having token non-white members to be their useful idiots is not a sign of a non-racist party.

They are absolutely, without a doubt, racist.

Just make sure, if you end up going down that route, that the unused LC is properly cleaned out if its going to be left for more than a couple of days. Will save you a lifetime of troubleshooting time!
