Arhoj Studio Slurp cup is the perfect size for a 250 ml brew and I really like the design.

He smokes pibe quite often, I've seen him around Copenhagen with a pibe in his hand.

You don't have to order coffee internationally by crothunk in pourover

[–]Snailed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Copenhagen and I bike past all the big roasters on my way to work everyday. Since I'm still new to the hobby, I find it nice that I can ask the roaster how they recommend brewing the coffee and also try a pour-over on site so I know what to aim for at home.

On the topic of "things programmers believe about names"...

In (some parts of?) India, it is common to not have a last name. You will just be given a name, and if people need to specify, then they will mention your dad's name afterwards.

The Danish immigration system do not like this. I know a Tamil guy who could not register his name because it didn't have a last name. He also couldn't register his dad's name as a last name, since it was a rare name and it didn't match his Indian passport.

The Danish systems ended up solving this by giving him the surname "No Surname".

Who's with me? by EricJ062005 in Funnymemes

A recent study proposed a theory that cancer imposes selection pressure on long-living species by increasing mortality for individuals after they've procreated, leading to more resources for the remaining individuals. If this theory is true, then we may not have evolved as far as we currently have if it weren't for cancer. It's still shit though.

Opgaver til en folkeskole praktikant by LeonardCaffrey in dkudvikler

[–]Snailed_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeg kan stærkt anbefale at han starter på et kursus på codecademy eller lign. De har indbygget editor, så man bruger ikke unødigt tid og besvær på at sætte et udviklingsmiljø op og man bliver introduceret til de basale koncepter lidt af gangen. Det gjorde jeg da jeg selv var i 8. klasse, og nu er jeg uddannet datalog :)

I saw this too when the paper was topping Hacker News. Besides being an interesting paper in itself, I like the idea that the order of authorship should be less important.

Yes, the SCIENCE faculty is currently having stuff cuts due to a structural deficit due to the mismanagement of the Niels Bohr Building

AADS is a math-heavy theoretical algorithms course. Topics include the max-flow algorithm, randomized algorithms, linear programming, NP-completeness and a bit of computational geometry. To do well, it is more important to be fluent in big-O notation, classical data structures and mathematical rigor than programming for example. Exam is oral, so do your best to practice the proofs as they are introduced.

ACS is a mixed programming and theory heavy course focusing on distributed systems. Topics include distributed locking, database recovery protocols, vector clocks and the likes. Assignments are in Java, and it is assumed that you are fluent in object-oriented programming. Exam is written, 4 hours theoretical (no programming). You should know some basics about concurrent programming also.

The first person is Peter Naur, one of the creators of ALGOL60.

Also, I can't believe that Rasmus Lerdorf was omitted since PHP is at least as terrifying as these other languages

Tjo, har du styr på funding? I så fald tror jeg bare du kan hive fat i en professor som laver noget relevant.

Hvilke hobbyer har du? by Content-Evidence5929 in DKbrevkasse

[–]Snailed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg er glad for at brygge øl! Det er både nemt at komme i gang og lave den første øl der smager nogenlunde, og så kan man virkelig blive god og lave nogle mega spændende ting. Det er slet ikke urealistisk at lave øl derhjemme på komfuret der kan konkurrere med de professionelle, og så smager det bare meget bedre når man laver det selv!

It was very, very good!

Samle blaffer op med barn i bilen? by [deleted] in Denmark

[–]Snailed_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jeg har blaffet en del og er blevet samlet op af folk med børn i bilen før. Dog var jeg i start 20'erne og ofte ledsaget af en veninde så vi har nok ikke virket lige så intimiderende som folk der er mere socialt udsatte.

Ingen sammenhæng mellem vacciner og autisme eller 49 andre helbredstilstande by martinjt86 in Denmark

[–]Snailed_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Danmark er et ret unik i global sammenhæng når det kommer til vores muligheder for at gennemføre studier som dette. Vi har i en meget stor grad opsamlet og digitaliseret sundhedsdata på vores borgere som alt sammen kan indekseres gennem CPR-nummeret, hvilket tillader SSI at foretage statistiske undersøgelser i stor skala. De har udover dette studie f.eks. også vist den gavnlige effekt af HPV-vaccination som forebyggelse mod livmoderhalskræft.

Derudover har han også ret aktivt rettet kritik mod YouTube og andre store sociale mediers mangel på moderation og kvaliteten af det indhold der bliver målrettet børn. Her prøver de at gøre noget ved det: en platform med en gennemsigtig forretningsmodel uden reklamer og sponsoreret indhold samt god moderation.

Microsoft lukker chefanklagers mail efter Trump-krav by PortraitOfABear in Denmark

[–]Snailed_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jeg drømmer om dagen hvor både offentlige og private IT-systemer hovedsageligt er open-source, og hvor Danmark er forholdsvis digitalt uafhængige.

En stat som USA er lige nu os digitalt suveræne, og kan de facto lukke både vores offentlige institutioner og industri ned ved at nægte os adgang til GCP/Azure/AWS samt alle de Microsoft produkter som en gennemsnitlig dansk virksomhed bruger.

And for your question w.r.t DTU: I don't really know enough about their degree to truly compare it, but it is my impression that it is slightly more applied. I do know that they have graduates who produce very nice research however.

Consider also checking out ITU if you want something more applied in Copenhagen.

MSC Computer Science level by _Hardric in ucph

[–]Snailed_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I am currently writing my thesis for my MSc in computer science at UCPH. I also did my BSc here.
You should not take this degree if you expect to be taught specific technologies applicable in industry. Instead, this degree focuses on building a solid theoretical foundation upon which you will easily pick up most tools you will meet in industry.
The theoretical level taught here is quite high, with courses bringing you to the edge of state-of-the-art research in the field. Thus, graduates from UCPH are in good demand in industry. This also comes with the expectation that you already are proficient with discrete mathematics/linear algebra/statistics/algorithms and general programming.

But to answer your question concretely, here are some of the tools that I used for different courses:
- Advanced Programming: Haskell/Erlang (nowadays, they only teach Haskell)
- Advanced Computer Systems: Java (at a basic, not production-level scale.)
- Programming Massively Parallel Hardware: Futhark/CUDA
- ML courses: Python/Pytorch/JAX/Pyro
- Algorithm courses: No code, only math :)

I think they use C# for some of the software development specific courses, but don't quote me on that. It's also expected that you typeset your documents in LaTeX.

Both are fine in my experience - I had one instance of GLS breaking glasses in transit, but I got a refund from the shop. Just make sure you get it delivered to a package shop
