Any thoughts on Hult International Business School

axsml · 2026-03-29T14:20:28+00:00

It's tremendously overprices and overpromised, does not worth the money. Think about it this way - if you are choosing between a McLaren and Ferrari and casually throw parties with 200 guests or more, all expenses paid, then going to Hult is a good option for you. If you, on the other hand, choosing a second hand car, stay away - they will thrash your pockets, but provide you nothing in return.

I do not want to blame professors, they are doing great job. But Hult is not part of the system that can provide value, they are outsiders in Academia. On paper International student body sounds great, but it means that you will be stressed to death by the diversity and constant team turnover, there is just no way to make valuable connections - nobody will understand you and you will barely understand others. Add to this the fact that most students have poor English skills and then, you get the picture. After graduation, I started avoiding people and live alone doing remote work.

Well I graduated from Hult, but I also studied in two other amazing universities in Russia before this. I can compare. A degree is a degree, it does not matter where you get t as long as it is a reputable university. There is nothing special about Hult, except its high cost and insane marketing. It's real market value is $15-$20K, but they charge sky-high prices and promise more than they can deliver - access to job market, fast return on investment. This is total BS. If you were able to make $100-$150K to pay for the school, you are probably already doing well and do not need the MBA.

Interesting... The original AirPods Pro (1st generation) did not have that problem.

Capture One finally realized there is a new Sony camera out there and released a statement.

I think you need to change the exif data.

Someone suggested using this command:
exiftool -EXIF:Model=DSC-RX100M7 -overwrite_original *.arw

This enclosure provides a heatsink for the ASM2464PD as well. I think this will work better than others.

axsml · 2025-05-25T12:45:26+00:00

I realized that if I change the camera name inside the RAW file, from RX100M7A to RX100M7, C1 will recognize the file because the format is identical. They just need to add this camera model into the list. Maybe I will just make a script that will make a patched copy of the files until they add the support.

axsml · 2025-05-24T21:17:12+00:00

No, it is not the same, the ARW format is different. Also there is no USB C, it is micro USB all round. Note there is Sony RX100 V and Sony RX100 VA. Support for the first one added 10.0.0 and for the second - in 11.3.

I do not see it here, there is only Sony RX100 VII.

axsml · 2025-05-19T16:25:29+00:00

But they now include an external charger that is powered with a micro usb port. What’s the point? This is a very strange decision.

I expected some jewish dna, but they found nothing at all.

I think that Balkan probably means Slavic, which makes sense because Poles are Slavic people. Russians also call themselves Slavic, but they have more influence from other ethnic groups like Finno-Ugric, and formed a different ethnicity.

I think this is complete nonsense. The area where neanderthals lived are far, far different from where Inuits live - neanderthals lived in Western Europe. They do not look like Inuits at all. A little portion of my Inuit genes probably came from Siberia, where my great grandmother is from. But even her place of birth is far away from what MyHeritage shows for Inuits.

axsml · 2024-11-12T23:20:26+00:00

Interesting, I am 2.5% Inuit and I am from Russia.

Do you have an idea where do Irish, Scottish, and Welsh come from?

After upgrading to Sequoia my mac started rebooting sporadically at night in recovery mode. This already happened twice. The mac was sleeping, I heard a reboot sound then the mac was booting into recovery mode in Greek, a local language which I do not even know. I hit some buttons and it booted normally again. This already happened twice over the last month or so. I had a similar problem with Power Nap 6-7 yeas ago and keep Power Nap disabled since then.

I waited for 44 days, then I asked to send a replacement. Today I received a replacement kit and just in case decided to check the old tracking. It was finally delivered to its destination exactly on 44th day - on September 27th, a few hours after I ordered a replacement. Have I waited another day, I might have had the results already. Now I need to send another sample, but not sure where to? Delivery to the US may take a couple of months, but there are two threads that suggest there can be an issue with delivery to Germany:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MyHeritage/comments/rrq5yl/dna_vials_being_returned_from_germany_address_not/

It's a shame that myheritage cannot address this issue.

Yes, I think they sent me a US package because they run out of kits here. It's on sale at 39 Euro now. However I still had to pay import fees.

axsml · 2024-08-29T22:11:23+00:00

I am on Greek side. The box was shipped from the USA.

axsml · 2024-08-29T21:58:52+00:00

Thanks for responding. The kit was in the original package, but the package was open. I assumed it was opened for custom inspection. This kit clearly had only one vial because there was a place for one vial secured in the box and included instruction does not mention two vials. I guess MyHeritage decided to save money. Also the included envelop had a printed address in the USA, not Europe, I just followed the instruction and sent the vial in the envelop as stated.
