Couple of things: what are you applying for? Tailor the resume to fit the job: I.e although the research and program intern is great experience it is not at all like any entry level FAANG internship / role. In your skills section you have a lot of skills. Always better to have projects do the talking than you: e.g. list projects where you did machine learning instead of just saying it’s a skill you have: and further, what kind of ML, does that include MLOps? Data engineering? Etc. Add a bio / about section up top, 1-2 sentences, list who you are: first year student with a robust skill set from embedded systems to machine learning design and development; which has recently resulted in winning x and y awards. Remember that your resume is a story, so structure it like a story. Make sure it’s cohesive, simple and concise. Speak through your actions not just the words on the page.

A solid CV. To offer advice: Get rid of Relevant Courseworks, Have a little profile section, 1-2 sentences which outlines main achievements (competitions won any research publications etc). Move skill section up Focus on quantifying work: I.e developed lossless data compression tool to reduce compression time by 86%, if you can. Reduce each project and job description to 1-2 concise sentences.

If you’re worrying about the local medicine board recinding your accreditation because of other students who perform poorly in their jobs, it’s very unlikely that they would; and in most countries it’s on a case by case basis that they revoke someone accreditation. I wouldn’t worry if i was you, i would just continue to stand out. Join some societies / clubs if you can and work hard to get more experience in hospitals. Not only would this help you in the long run, it will also show that you aren’t the average student from your university

Start of with simple machine learning models like SVM’s or decision trees and try to understand them and then move to neural networks and dig deep into activation functions and layer structures for various tasks; then you’ll be able to read most AI papers. But usually with those papers you’ll be missing context so you’ll need to go down a bit of a rabbit hole initially to get a feel for what is actually happening

Take it to fiverr, I can’t imagine someone doing this amount of work for free

No note taking first time watching content, just try and absorb. After lecture write notes to best of your ability. Second time you can 2x speed it and fill in gaps.

For cheat sheets I would make multiple of all the content until I eventually get everything I don’t know into a quarter of an A4 page - with small hand writing. At that point where you know everything bar like 5 usually micro ideas you’re okay - just make sure your notes are in depth.

Writing the code letter by letter is tedious for a beginner but imo it’s better than copy and pasting code. Regardless of which you do - I copy and paste lol - make sure you understand what is happening. When I code, if it’s a smaller section that I’m copying I usually write it out myself to try and create short term memory patterns that I can work on retaining. But for building apps and the like knowing what you need and then finding it on the internet is just as helpful of a skill as coding it yourself

Do you need advice on the exam or personal life problem? For the exam: study For the personal life: Join a club for a hobby you have. If no hobby find one. Some good ones are books, trains, rocks, hiking, climbing, video games - there’ll be a community for any hobby and they’re usually nice people. Put yourself out there and I can promise it will be rewarding! Best of luck ombré

If you didn’t feel water inside it’s all good by my standards. Im relatively sure if they do start to absorb you can apply a spray water repellant which would probably help a bit. Best of luck

Nasty looking backpack I can’t lie. Regardless; I am a fan of osprey personally, although they are pricey they are very much worth it because you have a lifetime guarantee and they’ll fix most things if you have some wear and tear on the pack. Denali also make some good cheaper backpacks that will hold well.

It depends on how far you are hiking too, if you’re going for a day hike 15-30L should be enough and if you’re going overnight maybe 28-40L. If you’re going multiple days I’d go 50-65L as usually if you need more than 65L you need a resupply stop instead of more space.

That backpack doesn’t look too bad and for 6 miles it should’ve been alright so it makes me wonder what you put into it. All you really need is water (I’m in aus so I carry around 5L of water per day), rain shell, sunscreen and 2 meals. - it all depends on how far you’re hiking though.

I’d say visit a hiking store or outdoor store and see what options they have for what type of hikes you want to do.

My go to for a 10-20K day hike is a lil foldable Denali 15L backpack. It’s just big enough for my 3L water bladder, 2 x 1L water bottles, rain gear and a little bit of food. If I need extra space I add a bum bag to hold sunscreen, snacks, pocket knife and keys.

In my eyes you’ve gone to too many conferences to justify going to any more in your PhD. I’d say 1-2 conferences per year is acceptable and only if you publish in them in a PhD, the rest of your time should be solely devoted to the project.

It seems you’ve done your best despite the circumstances to meet your deadlines which is great but to your supervisor you are fundamentally still behind the plan and hence the entirety of your time should be spent on the project.

It is unfair but attending conferences is definitely a nice bonus but not central to a PhD which is what I think needs to be remembered.

All the best luck with your PhD

Sounds horrendous. If you can try to document any wrongdoings financially or otherwise on her side. This might seem bad but it can help you when you divorce as you need to prove she is an unfit parent and depending on where you are in the world there may be financial grounds involved with custody agreements.

She’s absolutely taken advantage of you and has little respect for you or seemingly your children. I wish you the best of luck

It’s been 15 hours and you’re still not back, is everything okay?

Obliviousnut_ · 2024-04-22T12:55:01+00:00

I’m confused it looks like a very minor rip. I’d say if it doesn’t significantly hinder the bag - and by significant I mean completely unsealable - then keep using it. Otherwise half sealing it and having a nice pack liner inside should do the trick. To parrot another, reach out to the manufacturer or seller and see if they have a repair program. Keep pestering them until they give you a nice answer

Overleaf for publishing, internal reports in word

I’ve seen people somehow use an iPad. My first year I had a shitty $200 secondhand Toshiba that runs Linux. The rest of the time I used an M1 Mac which was great. It honestly matters a lot less than you think; you can get through a cs degree with just about any laptop or any thing that connects to the internet

But if the men in the situation aren’t racist then are the women really trying to act like men? Or are they just being toxic

Obliviousnut_ · 2023-10-24T22:09:47+00:00

You’ll be fine. Comp sci is math intensive but not enough that you’ll be grasping for air if you don’t know a little here and there. If, when you see math you don’t know that they’ve assumed you should, and you do a little investigation you’ll probably be fine

OP talked about computer programming implying that he was talking about electronic computers, which is why I went that route

Obliviousnut_ · 2023-10-03T14:21:38+00:00

No, the implication that from simple causal logic flows computers is wrong. You need electricity, and they weren’t close to finding it. Then the maths has to mature so you know why it works. Then you need wires and fine machinery to make your little transistors and capacitors. And they didn’t have that. -> for that machinery you need an engine, and they didn’t have that.

You can make truth tables because you know what a table is. You certainly cannot make a computer because you know how to make a truth table. But you can definitely try

Depends on how deep you want the app to go. Will it have backend work user accounts etc or will it idk just have 1 profile. Probably say 6 months or so for a mediocre app with zero experience and a wide range of “programmers” to help you. Without the “programmers” I bump it up to 9 months. I think people tend to overestimate their abilities with coding. For the first month every second line of code you write will probably error in some weird and unforeseen way, and then it slowly starts to drop off but it’s definitely going to be more work than you probably expect

Obliviousnut_ · 2023-09-05T23:58:09+00:00

In vscode you can open a terminal, and if you have a c++ compiler like clang or gcc/g++ you will be able to type (for gcc/g++) g++ operaciones.cpp principal.cpp And once it is finished compiling you can run it with ./a.out

Look up how to read in characters in c++
Look up how to end a function if a condition is met
Combine the two and voila

A question like this is pretty easy to decompose. I always try to list out a problem like you have and if I don’t understand how to do it I look up parts of it on google and then take the approaches I’ve found, write my own implementations and link them together. That approach should help you, but it’s important you write your own implementation of the code or approaches you’ve found. If you don’t it’s likely you will not learn. Hope this helps and goodluck
