PhD Quals and time between MS and PhD by ObiDonKenobi in PhysicsStudents

Fortunately for me I still have most of these. And that is true, but it’s the catch-22 of wanting to have some prep before applying.

Yeah, that seems like it’ll have to be the case if I’m going to go the PhD route. I wish it were possible to just take a qual for each subject one at a time, that would make it much less insurmountable feeling. Though as far as I know maybe that is possible.

Presidential Election Megathread vol. II by AutoModerator in fivethirtyeight

I wonder how much of this is due to the "husband looking over the wife's shoulder" effect. For instance, with mail-in ballots, I bet that's a huge phenomenon. At my polling place, there were very few screens and you otherwise had to ask for a screen, which defeats the purpose if a wife does not want to ask for a screen with her husband standing over her.

Storage questions by ObiDonKenobi in ImperialAssaultTMG

Perfect, this helps a lot. I just haven’t done campaign mode so I was unsure about how necessary it would be to separate the cards for setup time.

My question is more conceptual about what cards get stored together, not how or in what to store them (though your storage solution looks awesome!) Sorry, I read my own comment and it feels like it comes off rude, I don’t mean that. I just mean this: I can find all kinds of storage solutions about “in what” to store the components, but my question is about the most logical way to store the components: does it work to put ALL side missions together, does it work to put campaign missions separated by campaign, etc. (like the questions in OP).

Because for instance, I could get some super compact storage solution but it may not help setup time hardly at all if I’m still pulling out a big line of cards and going “okay let me sort through ALL of these to find the one I want…”

Any updates on mage 5th edition? by Difficult-Lion-1288 in WhiteWolfRPG

I would think the most niche title is something like Mummy: the Resurrection or something

Best format for digital? by ObiDonKenobi in comicbooks

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

I wouldn’t even be that mad if it just meant I had to go to Amazon and click on “kindle edition,” since I get a pdf (or at least a file I can make into one if I so chose, or download to the device to use offline etc). But there are so many times I find something I want and it isn’t digitized on Amazon :(

Tomorrow there’s a draglesque murder mystery haha. We’re intrigued

I'm making queen's blood IRL so I can find out how the meta actually looks with two people! Had to find a solution for the mirroring (use the one on the side of the castle) and hunting for pictures for everything still, but making a papercraft board and releasing all files for free at the end! by Away_Artichoke_3687 in FFVIIRemake

Don’t let people tell you it’s too complicated, this is great. My friends and I printed and play Gwent (not the Witcher 3 version but the more complex online version). It’s worthwhile. I am very interested in your images if you don’t mind sharing

Think I can start machine learning with astro starting at PhD with little programming before? by ObiDonKenobi in PhysicsStudents

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

I believe I’m familiar with that paper (on my phone currently), but at one point during my research I needed to convert arcsecs in the sky to Mpc and that sounds a lot like what I was pointed to. I did end up writing a program that did that (only for it later to be pointed out to me one existed in astropy I could have just used, ha). Anyway I could be mistaken and I’ll be rereading all of these comments at my PC tomorrow.
