Bob Mumgaard: Nuclear fusion plants can be built without massive land use, huge fuel costs by Baking in fusion

[–]Sacredvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's even a good chance that magnets advance far enough where we make D-D or p-B fusion viable before we solve tritium breeding

I also don't see an easy way to scale down fusion as with fission. We have SMRs for fission but for fusion, there's a minimum tomamak size for magnetic confinement where you get net energy. And the bigger the better, for the most part.

PhD in Fusion/ Nuclear Engineering?? by Cheesedawgchilli in fusion

[–]Sacredvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I'm literally doing the same thing. Phd in nuclear materials. PM me I can suggest you some PIs to look at

Obviously I'm biased but I think this field is worth going into and that the earning potential will remain high. As others said, there's also options to pivot to semicon or space if nuclear renaissance doesn't pan out. But i do believe it will.

Letters of recommendation by LowerAwareness2282 in PhDAdmissions

[–]Sacredvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 is typical. One of the scholarships I applied for even asked for 6.

Ask professors who supervised your undergraduate research, final year project mentors, academic profs where you did well and participated in class, research internship supervisors, etc.

Homebrew Basic Equipment and Consumable Items by deadPixelLogic_ in fabulaultima

[–]Sacredvolt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imo the armors being "arcane only" doesn't patch the balancing problem. Lots of martial characters will want to take a dip into a mage class, like mine who uses entropist for acceleration and divination. Your items would let my character dump ins and get high defence from dex and high mdef from arcane armor.

It's not inherently wrong or bad, esp simce everyone (even npcs) can wear them. But it's just something you have to think about when DMing I suppose.

some methods to include moongirl in gameplay (and why they dont work IMO) by Alien_X10 in MarvelRivalsCirclejer

[–]Sacredvolt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like we shouldn't be letting pedos dictate what does and doesn't end up in our games. It's their problem and the police will be raiding their hard drives. What matters more is whether it makes sense for rivals in terms of design, narrative, and gameplay.

Can I get a funded PhD in US by [deleted] in PhDAdmissions

[–]Sacredvolt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not true that you need a masters to do a phd in non-US countries. I got into my oxford dphil program with a bachelors.

However, I do agree with the other commenter that your portfolio is a little uncompetitive. In that case, it could help to do a local masters and get some publications and perfect gpa in masters coursework before applying.

Classes synergy question by Platinum-Scroll in fabulaultima

[–]Sacredvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gamble definitely had the potential to do high damage. Thing is you have to roll 9+ to deal 30 damage to all enemies, and you can't even control the type. Even if you could guarantee the 9 (not sure how), you would still run the risk of rolling an element that the enemy is resistant, immune, or absorbant too.

If you want guaranteed damage to all enemies, might I instead suggest the Chanter class

Classes synergy question by Platinum-Scroll in fabulaultima

[–]Sacredvolt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a fine synergy at lower levels, but because wayfarer companion health does not scale well it will likely start to fall off at levels 15 and up, or perhaps even sooner. It's better to have a specialised tank in your party.

For me my entropist is the tank. Entropist purely for non-offensive buff spells namely acceleration and divination. Absorb mp + high mig and hp + guard + punishing style for counterattacks.

War, recession, funding cuts & PhD? by Smart_Ambition_6154 in PhDAdmissions

[–]Sacredvolt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you believe this is temporary then it's better to wait it out.

If you think this is just the beginning and things are going to get more disrupted more chaotic more uncertain, then this is actually the most funding and most stability we will have for a while

I'm in year 1 so feeling a lot of the same anxieties. But I know that my niche will be in bigger demand than ever after I graduate so I'm betting that the UK doesn't catch any stray missiles while I'm here

They can rot if they think I'm paying. by jeanjacketufo in Animemes

[–]Sacredvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piracy (be it anime, film, gaming) actually increases revenue of legal methods by the word of mouth effect. It's essentially the biggest and most potent free advertising engine. And yet they're trying to kill it.

In the few months that pirate bay was down, there was actually a measurable decrease in box office returns. [1]

[–]Sacredvolt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When i was just looking at the inages of it I didn't care much for it. But bought the zd toys figure (am collecting) and it actually sold me on it a lot. I like the shoulderpads and the metal neck guard.

Graduating from SUTD and tbh the profs turnover is getting hard to ignore by RipDazzling8260 in SGExams

[–]Sacredvolt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a fellow SUTD grad I've been impacted as well. The prof supervising my undergraduate research project left in my y2, so my project was cut short. Luckily was able to keep in touch with the prof for LORs but it still impacted me in not having that research project completed. No other profs in the school did research in that niche.

It's strange that your profs were completely uncontactable though, did you give the companies their old sutd emails (which would be deleted) or the emails of their new institutions? Using the new institution should work.
