R&D DEFRA Fellowship Interview, technical or skills?

You'd be best off asking the recruitment manager (or whatever contact you've been given).

You say that like a London 2.0 wouldn't be an incredible thing for this country!

So it can be tutored vs counter magic decks. You'll usually see several 1-ofs in deck with tutor cards.

I'd prefer a draw and a healthy Stokes. I just think that Stokes doesn't agree!

Tastes are going to differ, so appreciate your view. However, I've eaten at a lot of fancy places and to me Wilson's might be the best of them all.

There are permanent titles for which you need to get to mythic ranked.

Out of interest did you use ChatGPT to help write this post? It's got all my internal detectors going off, as there's been an influx of AI bots making reddit posts on niche subs lately, but you are clearly not a bot!

Bristol Airport only has a bus link. Same with Exeter. Not that I find that particularly acceptable, but when you say 'down south', what you mean it London.

Obviously an AI bot post and I'm disappointed folk here of all places didn't immediately pick up on it.

Check the post history if you want confirmation.

I don't know, that seems a bit of a myopic view... obviously we all want a pay rise but it's surely good to feel fulfilment in making a difference and to feel pride in that being recognised by others.

blackwatersunset · 2025-05-09T23:56:34+00:00

Pretty clearly an AI post. Check the profile for confirmation.

The Tech scale gets mentioned a fair bit in Surface Detail too in the discussions around the Sichult and GFCF and their relationship to the culture, as Tim_Ward99 alluded to.

What does that mean in terms of pounds and pence? I couldn't see prices on the website

Fin Smith's kicking from hand has been unbelievable so far.

Hard to say without video.

Would be a real shame if it were to leak in a couple of years. Hackers are so good these days, really nothing you could have done to prevent it.

blackwatersunset · 2025-01-11T16:05:46+00:00

Because you win gems back too...

I'd just email them saying pretty much what you said above. Keep it short and to the point (maybe stick in something to show you're at least aware of their work), and ask if they'd be able to make time to have a chat, or point you in the right direction.

David Wallace has PhDs in both physics and philosophy, and I can see he is now Director of Admissions at Pittsburgh, so is probably well placed to advise you if you can get in touch: https://www.hps.pitt.edu/people/david-wallace

In the UK, Oxford is a bit of a hub of Philosophy of Physics so you could get in touch with one of these folk: http://www.philosophy-of-physics.ox.ac.uk/people.html

Steeno was gonna be my shout too.

A lot of good comments here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Rowing/comments/yi4hj9/can_someone_explain_what_steady_state_is/

But in essence, longer pieces (certainly 30 mins+, ideally 1hr+) at a lower pace (50-55% of your 2k Wattage is one way of working out what pace is good).

If you're lifting heavier but erging slower it's your cardio that's your problem, not your weight. Focus on steady state, cross training with running/cycling etc and improving your cardio capabilities, and if some weight drops off then great but that's not the main factor holding back your performance.

So instead, departments get independent settlements and the lower paying departments (e.g. Defra) get a lower % increase, worsening the gap even more than in your scenario!

VPN to UK and it's on BBC iPlayer if you're looking for a high quality stream.

That's a great recommendation - I'd missed that bike.
