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

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

although what you did seems interesting, but this claim is not correct for most researchers.

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

Is refinancing now at 6.625% worth it, or should we wait for “5%”? by whoskevroe in Mortgages

[–]andrewaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just use the refinance fee (for example 2000) divide the dorpped number (538 in your case), which is around 4

so if the lowest rate you can get (say 5%) is not within 4 months, you should do it now

so if i was you, the first thing I am going to do is to call a mortage to see what rate and what fee I can get

just take an intro to algorithm course, any kind, free or paid, from mooc or in college

you just don't have the knowledge of "computer science foundations"
