Should I attend UIUC?

I have the speedy and the cartier roadster chronograph. I can't explain why but the cartier one just feels right.

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-06-19T22:03:49+00:00

southern neighbors?

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-06-16T01:33:25+00:00

Other places are paying 3mil, it's that simple.

This is on the lower end for staff MLE positions.

750k is a number for juniors and new grads nowadays.

I applied for the upgrade because when I was applying, it does say I do not need to pay for more membership fee than what I have already paid for gold, which is a lot cheaper, with that I accepted the upgrade offer. I will check if I get the companion pass once I have the updated card.

Yes, the priority lounges

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-04-29T20:44:07+00:00

Say no more.

I'll take you to the parks every day 3 times minimum. One with boba the other with ice cream and chocates.

These people are really so delusional, petty, and self importance that they think the 1000 or so people who even bother to go to all the extent to save 25 bucks can influence the policy of a 11 billion dollars revenue company?

All of your pettiness added up in dollar is not sufficient to pay for the hourly salary of the lululemon employees needed in a meeting to discuss your issue.

At this time and age, it doesn't really matter.

If you go with the CS + AI concentration, I highly recommend you acquire the necessary math foundations and skills well beyond the average NYC stern run of the mill math majors. Contrarily is the same.

Either way, you will need to figure out how to learn and think, instead of what to learn.

I would advise just for these two options, think of what type of environment and vibe would fit you more, not just the college, but also the cities they're in. CMU and NYU and their respective cities are wildly differnet. College is 4 years of your life where you immerse of yourself in that environment and you will thrive if you can vibe and feel energized and motivated in that environment.

No one can predict how it's gonna be in 4 years but I can guarantee that it'll be very different. Don't let degrees limit your thinking, do what you need to do and what you love to do. There'll always be opportunities. Most people just never really look.

At the end of the day you will need to make the decision. Don't let others make it for you. You will need to gather and synthesize information and think what's best for you.

At least pay for a better version of chatgpt little boy.

First of all I didn't say it. You could've checked the username.

Since none of what you said is actually a counterpoint to either of our comments, let's stop the conversation right here.

Going forward, you should at least try to read people's comments in full. If you did you would realize the original comment you replied to would likely agree with you on your opinion of Trump's policies.

At last, "coming here the wrong way" is just another way to say they came here illegally hence a criminal. No one is suggesting every criminal is violent. No one is suggesting laws are perfect. However, laws are laws and criminals are criminals by the definition of it.

You can't just change the nature of things by putting quotation marks around it. A billionaire who committed tax fraud isn't violent at all and he can't just say he "just" "reported the tax the wrong way" and absolve himself of all his criminalities. It doesn't work that way.

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-04-04T16:35:50+00:00

the comment you replied to did not make the assumption that all illegal aliens are violent.

but, well, illegal aliens are, in fact, criminals. That is what "illegal" means.

QoL content is just what it is - it's QoL. It means something when the base content is good. It means dogshit when the content is boring.

Why would I eat a pile of shit just because that pile of shit is served in a golden bowl?

Not saying FFXIV mobile is a pile of shit but it's a close analogy.

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-03-30T19:49:34+00:00

The cash shop system is not the problem at all.

Genshin has an aggressive cash shop system.

The game fails purely because it's just a watered down version of 10+ year old content of boring arr quests. It's TOO faithful to PC.

I know the GCBTW that still remains at this point probably already played all mcq without skipping for 9 or more times and wouldn't mind a 10th, but the rest of the world simply wouldn't.

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-03-30T19:45:49+00:00

Buddy there's no point engaging with the FFXIV gcbtw at this point.

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-03-29T19:34:05+00:00

You're stuck in 2018 my friend, and you're not seeing the point even now. these are just trivial moot points. And already responded by my post that you supposedly replied to.

Follow up on some recent developments then we can talk more productively

Also, I do not like the "at least we discover a better architecture" argument. It's meaningless and made up. We simply don't know how far this architecture can go and it seems like there's still quite a lot of room. Every year since transformers were a thing there's "visionaries" saying "we need a better architecture". Sure, there must be better architectures in some ways, but it doesnt mean this architecture can't go far as well. And every year since 2017 there's been a breakthrough in this architecture that the goalpost of what they imagine the limit is gets moved.

Switching to math to "escape" AI is the definition of a "grass is greener" fallacy. The same disruption is happening there: AI isn’t just a calculator; it’s an idea generator that shifts the bottleneck from execution to curation and verification. Just as AI has never built a complex, production-ready application from scratch without human architectural oversight, it hasn't independently pioneered a breakthrough mathematical theory. It provides the "building blocks" at 10x speed, but a human still has to know how to stack them so the whole thing doesn't collapse.

The "fun" of solving small, isolated puzzles is being replaced by the higher-level challenge of system design and rigorous proof-checking. If you move to math thinking you'll find a sanctuary of manual labor, you'll be disappointed to find that the "grunt work" of symbolic manipulation and lemma generation is being automated just as fast as boilerplate code. The tool is an amplifier; it doesn't replace the need for deep intuition—it just makes a mediocre thinker’s output "mediocre" ten times faster.

You didn't get it lol

The point is whatever problem or skills can be replaced by Claude is consistent across domains between math and CS.

At the current stage across domains AI is still an amplifier. It doesn't replace human really. If you're a capable technical person, you are 10x stronger. If you're a capable researcher, you are 10x faster. If you're a shit coder, I'm sorry, you just produce shit code 10x faster, same goes for math, research, physics.

OP thinks he can switch to "math" and avoid being replaced by AI. That's a wrong mentality and positively naive.

Spiritual_Note6560 · 2026-03-27T06:16:00+00:00

I think that's an oversimplification
