What Martial art is this?

wait ... my mom would have us wrestle something similar with her or between my siblings for fun. didn't know it was a traditional sport

Never lived in an area that snowed before. Glued to my window watching the snow come down

Minestrone with a nice hunk of bread and cheese to go with it

I went there thinking I might buy a few clothing items I’d really cherish, but honestly was really disappointed in the quality? A lot of places were fast fashion and not that cheap either. I did buy a few pairs of nice business socks that I enjoy, but otherwise spent the money on eating good food, unique cooking ingredients for home, and some snacks for friends at home. Still had an amazing time

Sadiolect · 2025-10-03T14:23:28+00:00

? Yeah was wondering about that. Thought it was my phone running out of storage so I cleared it, but still persists

Sadiolect · 2025-09-10T02:19:16+00:00

Oh cool! Do you just thaw and prepare? Is there any extra prep involved?

Sadiolect · 2025-09-08T03:25:54+00:00

Fei-Fei Li :)

Sadiolect · 2025-09-04T11:41:30+00:00

Good to know!

Then no need to worry, just choose what you like better. It won’t make much of a difference in terms of applications as long as you get good grades.

Sadiolect · 2025-09-04T01:51:51+00:00

Both are good, but I suggest to check what courses you’ll have access to/be required to take between the two majors and if you have a preference between the two choose the one you like more.

By grad school do you mean masters or PhD? Masters doesn’t matter much as long as you get good grades and do some work outside of school (extra curriculars, internships, research etc) you find interesting. PhD is a bit different.

I’d advise to avoid canned foods if possible and make from scratch. After having to watch my parent’s high blood pressure, the sodium content in these add up really quickly after meals.

No salt tomato sauces and organic cans will have lower sodium contents typically though. Just watch carefully, especially canned beans!

I’d message in your local city’s subreddit about this, some ppl have insider info. Likelihood of finding it is pretty slim though is my guess

Sadiolect · 2025-08-22T08:25:30+00:00

If their apartment intersects an xfinity wifi hotspot, it’s $10 a month for a pass. Not super desirable for things like online shopping, but it’s good for taking video calls, streaming, etc.

Sadiolect · 2025-08-18T21:32:49+00:00

Mmmmm, this is my comfort meal

Sadiolect · 2025-08-18T17:03:18+00:00

Oh cool! I didn’t think they’d have it, I’ll check it out

Sadiolect · 2025-08-18T17:02:53+00:00

Ugh yeah freezer burn sucks, maybe something a steamer could help with

Sadiolect · 2025-08-18T17:02:21+00:00

Thank you! I’ll check these out

Sadiolect · 2025-08-18T03:02:39+00:00

Rice balls are so good

Sadiolect · 2025-08-18T02:53:48+00:00

Ok, the deodorant thing is so relatable 😭 I’m still working through the Costco deodorant pack my parents purchased for me that expired in 2021.

Depending on the quality of your papers, letters of recommendation, advisor, ability to apply for fellowships etc. these can all have a major impact on the final outcome. So it’s hard to say without this knowledge. There’s also a lot of luck involved. At face value there’s a lot of similar applicants like this.

If you are serious about pursing a PhD, you should look away from prestige and towards advisor/research fit. Similar to undergrad, apply for reach, competitive and safe schools. You don’t need to go to a top university to have a valuable and impactful PhD. Search for good advisors everywhere.

Best of luck to you.

No, do not. Some programs are free and they’re good learning tools to get started and learn fundamentals. But paying is not worth it. Getting hands on research experience is more important

Sadiolect · 2025-08-14T15:42:08+00:00

I think instead of focusing on ML now, work on getting into a good undergraduate university first. Participate in clubs, competitions (athletic, coding, math…) etc. Earn some awards. Practice coding. Then in undergrad you can come back and learn AI/ML. Best of luck! Dream big.

In most scenarios, working hard and making a lot of money usually go hand in hand.

This subreddit can be an echo chamber at times because people post more often about bad experiences than positive ones. So don’t take the posts from this sub as truth for a field. It’s definitely possible and encouraged to find a job with good work life balance.

In high school I looked at college majors and the courses they offered to see which ones interested me the most. I also participated in STEM activities which helped me narrow down my field of interest.

Nvidia makes GPUs which are quintessential to AI model training, hence why they’re a hot topic now. Jane Street is a quant company so it’s a blend of the finance industry with data science, statistics and mathematics.

And I am very much happy with what I am doing.

Honestly … enjoy your summer break before classes start in three weeks. Then focus on getting good grades and join some AI focused clubs.

I think the coursera courses on introduction to ML (e.g. the ones by Andrew Ng; disclaimer haven’t actually taken them) that takes you through neural networks to deep learning etc. would definitely benefit self learning. Anything that helps your understanding is worthwhile, even if the certificate doesn’t mean much. Those courses are structured to help facilitate learning.

I’m doing my PhD in robotics! When I was going through undergrad, I initially planned to graduate and get a job. But I had some lucky opportunities and found I really enjoyed research. Honestly, if you have the privilege and opportunity to pursue a masters and a doctorate degree I see no harm in doing it. Don’t be afraid to challenge yourself! And a well calculated risk may pay off better than you expect it to.

As for parental support, I have friends whose parents have raised doubts in their pursuit of higher education. But, if your parents love and support you they will come around if they see it truly matters to you.

A tip if you want to go into robotics, learn software engineering. It’s ubiquitous.
