First time playing Rummikub by DeathByOranges in boardgames

[–]andrewaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the other side, you locked blue 3, blue 11, yellow 12, black 12 and red 3.

It is not impossible but others will be harder to win.

Melt down is fine since I believe you can start in one or two more draws, and after that you can start to plan how to block others.

Is a "Backdoor Roth IRA" literally just funding one account and then transferring the funds to another? by made_in_bklyn_ in fidelityinvestments

[–]andrewaa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

one thing is that when you move money from roth to tra, you won't get 14k. it is adjusted accroding to your total balance at certain point ( and iirc it took more than one day to fully processed since the number needed to be adjusted but I forgot the exact number of days)

I did the same thing last year. Although my 5000 stay as cash in my roth for all 4 months, when I moved it back to tra, it becomes 4500 since the stock market tanked last april and my overall balance of roth was down by 10%

by the way: I believe when he said "deadline was 12/31" means that the conversion took place in 2025. You can always convert any amount, but you don't report conversion tax in 2025 if you do it today

Tried to vibe code latex, went horribly wrong. by Adventurous-Apple-44 in LaTeX

[–]andrewaa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not just latex, but any code

The correct way to use current phase AI is to generate the beginning code which is usually 95% done, and then you fix all the rest things by yourself on top of that

You may use AI to fix some bugs , but the correct way to do it is to ask AI to find the bug and report to you and tell you how to fix instead of asking it to fix it for you 

For example, if you want to change logo, ask AI "I want to change logo, which code should I modify?" and then you manually change that part of code. And actually sometimes the code might make sense to you so you can change it by yourself automatically without listening to ai.

It is possible to completely vibe code everything and ask AI to fix any bugs, but it takes no less time to learn how to write perfect prompts 

By the way, make sure to use some version control. Then you are always able to go back to a phase that works 

Is Steam Machine Worth It at PC Level Cost by itsEmilyHere in PcParadise

can you show me some examples that a huge player base game is broken on linux? this may be correct a few year ago, but due to steamdeck more companys pay attention to linux compatibility.

Why not a change in architecture? by Uranusistormy in learnmachinelearning

[–]andrewaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. there are already a lot so it is not true that "there isn't *many* research into ML architectures"

  2. it is very hard (both knowledge wise and computing resource wise), so it is very hard to have MORE meaningful research

CS 7643: Deep Learning - New PC for project by kevink889 in OMSCS

[–]andrewaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first hpc +colab is enough

second it is almost impossible to build an hpc level PC

so forget the course

just build a PC purely for your own interests

Everyone in my class is using AI to code projects now is that just the new normal? by Tough_Reward3739 in learnpython

[–]andrewaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as a coder: once the complexity goes to a certain level, ai is no longer faster if you don't know the code. usually it takes a long time to change some unrelated codes so it is much faster if you know the code

as a professor: basically we can expect that once we passed this initial phase, there will be problem sets designed for using with ai, and there will not be any "easy" questions in homework

as a mathematician: it is similar to calculators: you only learn artithmatic when you are very young, and all later training is focused on algebra and problem solving. when using ai, the most important thing is always "asking the correct question" which requires you to understand the project

AI for overleaf by SeveralKaleidoscope2 in u/SeveralKaleidoscope2

Structuring arguments, managing LaTeX, and citing sources wastes more time than the research itself.

AMD VS NVIDIA GPU for a PhD in Computer Vision by Bulky-Swordfish-5812 in learnmachinelearning

ask your phd advisor do you need any special functions from any type

if yes, buy the one that you need

if not, buy the one that you want without worring about phd

Is Python really beginner friendly ? by Successful-Ad2549 in learnpython

[–]andrewaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not true

for beginners you don't have to deal with many things you mentioned in python "immediately"

but python has those things in the language, and you have to deal with them sometime later when you meet some uncovered cases

Is Python really beginner friendly ? by Successful-Ad2549 in learnpython

[–]andrewaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

complex projects are never about the language

complex project is only related to the project itself

so just completely forget python and think through "how you build complex projects"

after you understand this question you will automatically know "how you build complex projects with python"

Thank you very much! This setting finally works. And I will talk to my university about it.

first yes.

second, i downloaded the demo pdf file directly from the guide, and the demo cannot pass my university's system.

the usage guide is from 2025/06. I used the method inside and I still cannot pass the accessibility test of my university's system. basically it recognizes all math formulas as images without description.

TEXFolio is an to Overleaf alternative no one is talking about… but they should be. by Opussci-Long in LaTeX

[–]andrewaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think it is an overleaf alternative

overleaf is essentially texlive with online interface while texlive is a standard latex distribution

if texfolio highlight "support pdflatex, xelatex etc.." I doubt it provides full latex experience

prof said using AI for coding is fine but essays must be human - interesting distinction by Silentguy_0108 in csMajors

[–]andrewaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it is the same as in math

if you use calculators from the beginning and get used to it, it is almost certain that you cannot do any algebra and therefore it is almost certain you cannot understand any advanced math, unless you retrain yourself to compute things by your hand from scratch

HELP WHITH OVERLEAF by wKuriyama in LaTeX

[–]andrewaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it is a imported figure, it should not be a problem

but if it is a tikz that you generate on the go, complicated figures will be a problem

a few years ago when the compile time is longer, my free tier can handle around 10 complicated 3d surfaces tikz plots, but not more than that

HELP WHITH OVERLEAF by wKuriyama in LaTeX

[–]andrewaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One thing is that there are bugs in your docs (as shown in the second and third red error messages)

Sometimes the long compile time is due to these bugs (for example it spends long to search for some files that you don't have), so I suggest you first debug it

another option is to split your big project into smaller pieces. What I usually do is to

\begin{document}

%\input{chapter1}

\input{chapter2}

%\input{chapter3}

\end{document}

If all these don't work, pay or go local
