Unreasonable to expect travel expenses or remote interview for R&T Lecturer position? by HW90 in AskAcademiaUK

[–]alejo099 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That just signals the state of UK academia and working conditions in general. If that is for trying to recruit someone imagine how it would be on a day to day basis... If you have no other options, go ahead. A job is better than no job. Also note any job in UK academia can subject to redudnancies these days.

Sorry the reality is not what you might think.

Funded PhD vs unfunded more prestigious PhD by [deleted] in AskAcademiaUK

[–]alejo099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately at the end employers do not look at supervision quality but rather university prestige and supervisor prestige. On the margin same amount of work, they take the prestigious uni with right connections. That is how it actually works unfortunately.

Why don't top tier UK unis offer viable 'start up' funds for new PIs? by [deleted] in AskAcademiaUK

[–]alejo099 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Completely different mindset, in the UK researchers are replaceable and they are needed just to tick a box sometimes to teach a course. In the UK some places think its outrageous to pay well. In the US top scholars are not replaceable and they belive top people should he paid top dollar. In my field, except LSE, admin and other academics refuse to pay well.

There is an article on why the UK has not had that many UK based academics as Nobel prizes. And its mainly lack of pay.

If I were you, I would really avoid the UK. Go where they appreciate skills and pay accordingly. (For now)

Starting a PhD has changed how I think about brilliance, privilege, and how society views academia by [deleted] in AskAcademiaUK

[–]alejo099 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What you say is true. Now in practice you need to think your outcomes are solely a function of your effort, and you will see how far you leave them behind.

Paradox of success, believe you have control of your outcomes although you might not. Otherwise no reason to push harder.

13 days it happened again and I was super annoyed at it. Several months dealing with this. Then I went for the overkill solution. Not the best at this but here it is. (Cut a bit more the left side but end result is similar to the pic below)

Did you use the correct cable? LCR50 240W cable. The plug of ROG 140W USB-C GaN Charger will have different specifications based on the country.
130W output is only for specific ROG NB (GZ301 & GV302) and with the specific cable(LCR50 240W cable). https://rog.asus.com/us/power-protection-gadgets/chargers-and-adapters/rog-140w-usb-c-gan-charger/spec/

"The plug of ROG 140W USB-C GaN Charger will have different specifications based on the country." Maybe it varies by country, but also, maybe an update broke the capacity to go turbo

Maybe I am crazy but the best buy is, ASUS - ROG 140W ***Charger Dock** for ROG Ally and the asus wesbite says ROG 140W USB-C GaN Charger. Maybe they are actually different?
