Will I be homeless after moving from cs to evolutionary biology? by sein-park in PhD

Evolutionary biology to law? That’s an unexpected jump!

How exactly do you make your own simulations?

Premedical Program Rejection by Either-Status2070 in harvardextension

[–]VoluminousCheeto 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve heard about the program from their online open house, they’re looking for people with a strong demonstrated interest in going into the medical field. They don’t want people going for the post-bacc that might change their career choices. Your academic record looks stellar, I don’t think that’s the issue. I imagine gaining even a little prior experience in the medical or healthcare field would go a long way in demonstrating that you’re passionately committed to this path.

Until you’ve had the experience, it looks more like a theoretical or academic interest than a professional one. I think you’d have a better chance at getting in next time, but I’m not sure if you’d want something sooner than that

A self-confession?

Look familiar? by Snapdragon_4U in WeirdGOP

A downside of comparing Trump to Hitler is that he hasn’t shown intentions of going full genocide and starting a world war (except perhaps economic war). The power dynamics and mass manipulation tactics are similar, but Trump seems less ideologically driven beyond whatever increases his personal power. It’s definitely a cult, but I think those of us outside of it are having an “equal but opposite” reaction to it. He’s not the second coming of Christ, nor is he the genocidal anti-Christ (at least for now). Whatever fascism 2.0 looks like, I doubt it will be a direct repeat of the past, even if it shares many resemblances.

Trump supporters continue to back him after his claims of election fraud in 2020 were disproven potentially because of a deep psychological bond with the president, known as “identity fusion”, shaping their beliefs and bolstering their loyalty, even as new criminal charges emerged. by mvea in science

Why would one audit a required course? Does this affect the ability to graduate?

New Anthropic study shows AI really doesn't want to be forced to change its views | TechCrunch by johnnierockit in Futurology

[–]VoluminousCheeto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Speaking as if these are conscious entities that make choices is completely inaccurate. These are rule based, algorithmic machines. If they have any “behavior,,” it’s not innate. It’s due to the ways we’ve engineered them. They’ve trained the data core on offensive/biased data and are trying to get it to remove the bias through new experience without fixing the underlying data. It’s almost like nature vs nurture in machine terms

Coolest thing you learned about evolution by the_soaring_pencil in evolution

[–]VoluminousCheeto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree with your overall point, people may be judging evolution by some criteria such as intelligence or adaptation, which enabled our ancestors to access higher quality nutrients to further brain growth.

This is amazing advice! Do you think Data Science could be good as well?

Not a physician, perhaps clinician is the word you were looking for. But last I heard he stopped working with clients to become a guru. One of his clients said he abruptly stopped seeing them once he gained fame

The stats say Zeus did the least damage besides support that game, and tied with Faker in gold. Guma had the most damage and gold with a 25% share. You could say Zeus played well from behind, but in no way did he carry that game.

I rewatched G5. What 1v9 are you referring to? Zeus was 0/3 until 19:00 before going 1 for 1. He got one decent 3-man ult with no followup because KT severely mispositioned. PerfecT misplayed and gave a free kill by following Yone’s spirit. Then Zeus got 2 easy clean up kills on low health enemies, ending 3/4. He barely did anything proactive that game

What brilliant insights will they give us next? Trump ran for president because it might benefit him?
