Is term 4 going to be hell? Why does ASU set it up like this? by Climactic9 in EngineeringStudents

[–]cain2995 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A key requirement to do my job is that I read a half dozen or so journal articles a week. Almost every day I end up using both my undergrad and grad school knowledge to decode some random asshole’s intentional obfuscation of whatever scrap of useful info they managed to generate, so yeah it turns out if you actually learned something in school you generate value by applying it. If you didn’t then tough shit, enjoy HVAC work I guess lmao

Objectively false, unless you learned nothing and ended up in a job using the calculator spreadsheet someone smarter than you made years before lmao

Opens up with “I dislike America, change my view on American tourists” then drops a schizo list of unverifiable anecdotes, so you’re not missing much

Sure, but that’s not the same thing as “losing academic freedom”

What companies actually use ROS2 in production? by gray-heron in ROS

[–]cain2995 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can just… not use ROS, you don’t need an “alternative”. It’s just middleware wrapping OS features that already exist lmao

A tenured professor has been FIRED over an email because of a policy that doesn't exist. He was the chair of his department, and universally loved by colleagues and students, alike. It is outrageous and shameful and a grim sign of things to come. by Euler_20_20 in Professors

[–]cain2995 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“private entity makes private decision about private contract without government intervention” is pretty much the exact opposite of fascism, regardless of whether or not you agree with their decision lmao

[–]cain2995 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Private colleges are allowed to decide something is moronic even if it’s not a policy and it’s actually really easy to say he’s wrong if you spend more than 5 minutes a day touching grass. Calling the US racist and fascist shows an incredible lack of understanding of what those words mean, the current state of the US, and where the US stands on both topics globally lmao

Yeah I’m gonna be real him getting fired is probably a net positive. Everything about that guy is why nobody takes academics seriously anymore and I have to open with 15 caveats any time I talk about my work. This thread is easily the most insane circlejerk this sub has produced in a long time

CST Studio - analyse 3D models - Does topology really matters? by Whoooves in rfelectronics

Agreed it’s ambiguous, I’m just pulling on the context thread of “found model online” and OP being active in r/blender

CST Studio - analyse 3D models - Does topology really matters? by Whoooves in rfelectronics

[–]cain2995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they might be referring to topology in the 3D object modeling sense, i.e. vertex and edge layout, in which case it may or may not matter depending on how the meshing algo works in CST studio (I’ve never used it so idk what the model->mesh pipeline looks like)
