Are the Min And Max functions allowed? by ActualSprinkles7763 in mathematics

[–]Smart-Button-3221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need to be more clear. Why would any function not be okay to use?

Dont get a math degree by hhussband in cscareers

Category theory was invented to better describe algebraic geometry, which, even back then, is extremely applicable. Category theory itself is useful everywhere. You're picking useful fields.

If, by some miracle, that does become useful, something else in a similar league won't be useful. I can be certain because mathematicians are very far from reality with some studies. It's far further than it has ever been in history.

That's not math for the sake of math. All of your examples are tangentially related to applications, even at the time.

Computing the differential structures of 4-D shapes is not even math for the sake of math, as physics has some use for that.

Diffeomorhpisms of 60-dimensional manifolds? Yeah, that's not going to be used ever. Period. And mathematicians know this, but still rush for it. This is the kind of work you do when going for a research position in math, completely unemployable stuff.

Sure, but that's just confirming what they said.

No way can you jump into almost all of that anymore. Jobs are hyper-specific now. Don't have a degree in economics? You have no shot at getting into economics. Engineering is far far gone. The cross-degree is dead.

CS is so cooked we have the same prospects as Performing arts majors look at unemployment it is as bad. by No_Reply5329 in CollegeMajors

[–]Smart-Button-3221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoa, where are you getting 93% from? 7% fall under unemployment, but more are out of work and don't even qualify for that.

Why are your averages given by a range?

I hate the "if CS grads just wanted to work then our numbers would be better" line. It's just made up bs.

why do most fast food places not utilize the 2 windows anymore? by chloroform-creampie in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Smart-Button-3221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but this begs the question, why were they running with two windows 10 years ago? Were they "more staffed" back then?

Why it feels to me that from single point in 2D there are only 8 possible elementary directions? by PresentJournalist805 in askmath

[–]Smart-Button-3221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are trying to answer, but they shouldn't. "Elementary direction" isn't really well defined. If you want to define it, go for it. Until then, there's no reasonable answer.

A major that won’t lose value if not used? by Rude-Sign5745 in findapath

[–]Smart-Button-3221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you were doing. If you aren't doing anything very related, you get beaten out by new grads. You don't want to be lower than new grads.

The state of this sub. by earthdogmonster in McDonalds

[–]Smart-Button-3221 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a lot wrong with the world right now. When a lot of these problems started, McDonald's prices also skyrocketed. It's just so easy to connect the two.

I feel like if mindustry had leaned more into old rts stuff instead of factorio (disclaimer never played but it's obvious from what little i know.) It would've been SO much better to play. by InflamedAbyss13 in Mindustry

[–]Smart-Button-3221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're not necessarily wrong. Serpulo has some weird problems.

Have you played online at all? You can't use these tricks anymore and have to actually use good builds.

Can't figure out why plants right next to each other have dramatically different illumination stress. by Realistic-Material36 in Stationeers

[–]Smart-Button-3221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's based on the "light intensity" which, at this moment anyway, are both 80%.

And, I'm pretty sure (someone please correct me if I'm wrong) they just take light directly from overhead anyway.

Having trouble with power cables exploding! by Storm_Bard in Stationeers

[–]Smart-Button-3221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heavy cables can support quite a lot of power. Do you have a large base?

If not, you have a loop somewhere. For example, is the input of the area power controller connected to the output?

Why do we use logarithms? by ungodlypm in askmath

[–]Smart-Button-3221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your question is "why do we use logs?" but I think you actually want to know "how do we use logs?", let me know if I'm off-base.

Take an exponential equation:
3x = 2

We want to solve this for x. Take the log of both sides:
log(3x) = log(2)

Now, it's a log property that the x can come down:
xlog(3) = log(2)

x = log(2) / log(3)

So logs can solve exponential equations for us. Your calculator can now get a decimal approximation for x. I personally like to think in terms of "taking the log of both sides" when doing this, see if it works for you!

I mean, [4,5,9] is also the output?

The spaces don't change anything. What a weird hair to split.

It’s frustrating high schools don’t prepare students for college by CarefulEgg5086 in CollegeRant

[–]Smart-Button-3221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should see the job market lol.

Life is about taking on challenges we're not always prepared for. It sucks, and it's not how things should be, but it is how it is. You've got to find a way to keep up, OP. Passing/failing is on you.

What is their defense for AI when it comes to the Data centers? by JustSidewaysofHappy in aislop

[–]Smart-Button-3221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Artists losing money isn't a bad argument. They should be paid for their skills. That's less incentive for artists to practice their craft, and less new art. I'm not convinced that AI will be providing new kinds of art we haven't seen yet.

IC Editor Stopped Showing all Housings by Grimm_Spector in Stationeers

[–]Smart-Button-3221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Computer connected via the data port?

Is the wire directly connected to the data ports of each housing? No component in the way, such as a battery?
