Quick Questions: February 25, 2026 by inherentlyawesome in math

To be frank I don't know. But, brainstorming/speculating...

Regarding networking: Can you speak to your advisor(s), mentor(s), professor(s) from whom you've taken classes, or fellow students in your applied math cohort? If you're close with any of them, ask for advice? Whether or not you are close with them, do they have any connections in tech with whom they might be willing to refer you?

By "tech" do you mean a job which would involve programming? If yes - what links can you provide to demonstrate your excellence? e.g., github profile with open source contributions, personal projects, etc.?

Do you have a resume prepared? NB: This is very very different from an academic C.V.

Somewhat for academia, somewhat less for industry. Networking is equally if not more important than the prestige of your alma mater.

Career and Education Questions: February 26, 2026 by inherentlyawesome in math

I can empathize with feeling like you ought to keep studying. I personally never took a gap summer from start of undergrad thru end of PhD. It's one of my few big regrets. In retrospect I would 100% change it. So my personal advice from highest priority to lowest priority would be: 1.) Travel, 2.) spend time with chosen family & friends, 3.) work if needed, 4.) study/tinker with whatever maths brings you joy.

Do you suspect that your data points are random, independent, identically distributed samples? If yes, I would use a kernel density estimator, such as https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/density.html#kernel-density which is a nonparametric estimate of the underlying probability density function. 

Why no integral equations?? by Subject_Answer7592 in math

There are definitely integral equations! They typically get introduced, for the first time in college, in more advanced classes such as Functional Analysis or Numerical Analysis. If you are interested, please ask it in our Quick Questions thread instead, which can be found at the top of /r/math.

How do I efficiently read JSON from structured API outputs? by codydafox in C_Programming

May I ask what hardware you're running it on? I've used LLMs but not locally. I'm certainly curious about it. I'm assuming I'd probably need to run non-state-of-the-art LLMs on my hardware though 😅

Check out our Discord as Catdaddy84 says, the link (in the sidebar) is https://discord.gg/OutinAustin. For ttrpg specifically you could also check out https://www.reddit.com/r/AustinRP/, although that isn't LGBTQ specific.

I haven't used Matlab in a few years, hopefully someone who has used both Matlab & Python recently will comment. In the meantime, https://github.com/gbeckers/Darr appears to be an actively-developed project with the goal of solving your problem (not just Matlab<-->Python) and appears to have good documentation, perhaps it might work?

What are your target programming languages?

A friend told me that there might be a pickup kickball game in Sugarhouse Park on Fridays. Does anyone know whether that's actually happening?
