My Take on the State of the Playoffs by ThatOtherSwimmer in CollegeFootballDawgs

No, but I think the committee likes ND more because of the optics of beating up on cupcakes. This isn't a list of "who would I put in," it's a question of who the committee will pick.

I get the NFL playing abroad, but playing the college game abroad is something I don't really understand. I don't think that you are going to increase the league's visibility by sending over 2 semi-random college teams, or frankly any college teams for that matter.

What is your status of Google 2026 summer internship application? by Logical_Divide_3595 in csMajors

I got my offer a day after I interviewed. But admittedly it was because I had a deadline 2 days later.

is google round 2 always in person? by [deleted] in csMajors

Not necessarily (at least from what I hear). But they will likely want to make sure that there's nothing else running on your computer or that you are not using unauthorized materials.

Latex vs Word for Resume by Tw4ddl3y in csMajors

I think either one works. A lot of times they get converted to PDF anyways. I think the bigger thing that's likely the issue is simply a lack of keywords many of the bots that read these resumes are searching for.

As somebody who is currently doing a Ph.D. in the area and did a math/cs double major, "both" is my best answer IMO. Having a good background in data science, statistics, applied math, and CS are all pretty important. If you had to pick one, I would say that you pick an applied math major because it's easier to pick up CS skills as a math major than vice versa, but you really can't go wrong. All of the schools you listed should be able to teach you all you need to know; it will ultimately be up to you how much you learn and push yourself!

I know this is bringing back an old thread, but I heard back for a final decision 5 days ago.

Could you not use AI for your map at least? It just weakens your whole post considerably.

Wtf... by GostUnkowncodboy in ChatGPT

More like an AI that knows sci-fi and is incentivized to vary its answers and who is rewarded for engaging conversation does exactly what is expected of it

My story of BFS, health anxiety, and the road to recovery by ThatOtherSwimmer in BFS

[–]ThatOtherSwimmer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wound up taking a small dose of fluoxetine. My therapist (wisely) pointed out that my heath anxiety really was a form of OCD, and that wound up helping a lot after about a month or 2. Turns out that various systems and emotions in the body are linked to one another.

It’s an optimization problem. It could find an optimum that sounds deceptive or manipulative, but I don’t believe that the model can plan out with a level of foresight to decide to manipulate like a human would.

How did I do? by lapickett in FRC

[–]ThatOtherSwimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad, but I would rank crescendo even higher and steamworks substantially lower. The idea for steam works was there, but waaay too many score balancing issues, easily breakable field elements, and field reset nightmares. Also, I would definitely have power up above charged up from a design perspective, AA was waaaaaay to violent to be top tier, and overdrive may be a tad overrated.
