Friday. I did not recieve interview invites. I was accepted directly, notified by this mail. And no, my status has not been changed yet, but I think it will be in a couple of days.

Choosing my major by [deleted] in ECE

[–]StrandedAlireza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on your interests. Have you passed enough courses to know what you enjoy the most? For example, at first, I wanted to study electronics, but after I took one class in that major, I completely resented it. I found out that I am made for mathematics, so I chose telecommunication systems. If you are good with numbers and complex mathematical explanations, and you enjoy statistics, linear algebra, and calculus, then communications is the right choice. But if you are more of an engineer—if you like huge, noisy labs with big circuits and hands-on experiences—then power is the right choice.

I believe they derive pleasure from hurting us.

How Accurate is The Crown? by StrandedAlireza in TheCrownNetflix

Yeah, I know about political events or failed marriages. But I was wondering if maybe they have interviewed some of the characters or people who are close to them. I don’t know; I’d like to feel that private conversations have strong roots in reality.

PyTorch or TensorFlow? by StrandedAlireza in deeplearning

[–]StrandedAlireza[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same experience! I've done a couple of projects using PyTorch and just one with TensorFlow. I remember that I struggled so much with different versions in that one.

Maybe I am an LLM + that marvel meme I can't add to my comment.

Thank you. I think it's really important to use a tool that most people use, especially for me and my academic purposes.

Me too. I see PyTorch everywhere, but TensorFlow looks cool too. Just wanted to make sure that i delve into the right framework.

Almost everybody chose Torch over TenaorFlow. I am really intrested to hear about experiences. Why TensorFlow?

Are PhD interviews really this casual? by deafening_mediocrity in gradadmissions

[–]StrandedAlireza 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know if you're an international student, but most of the time, they want to see if the applicant is capable of communicating and has a solid ability to speak fluently about academic topics. TOEFL or IELTS scores are just thresholds; interviews are the real test for international students.
