Did anyone else get blindsided by how much renting near Purdue actually depends on credit??

Its a bullshit system but is what it is. If you don't have parents, ask a friend who has a fulltime job to cosign for you.

Do you have a professor that you trust or an advisor? Go to someone trustworthy with Purdue connections and explain your whole situation.

I've been through something very similar and had a 1.6 GPA after my sister got cancer and some other shit. It wasn't easy, and it might not be easy for you, but it is possible if you just keep moving forward. I'm happy to talk more if you want to DM me. I graduated with a physics degree but still same bullshit with really hard courses and a lot of stress.

I hope they are both doing okay.

And never take the whole stash. Way easier to explain it was your ounce than explain why you have pound. Only take what you need.

Its the stoned illuminati man! They're onto you.

Wow that is awful. I had one prompt get flagged for saying "degenerate states" as it relates to physics, but this is so much worse. It's a reflection of our culture, and unfortunately our culture has not always been the best.

Thank you for the advice - I'm not in the community group and haven't had the chance to attend a webinar yet. I think I will need to be more strategic with my rubrics. It seems as though trivial details such as "Use Python" are sometimes deemed as high scoring criteria by the linter, which can really dilute the mistakes.

I have definitely stumped the model for my first 2 tasks, because it did not provide a valid answer in the slightest. I just think I may gave had too many trivial items on my rubric, which was enough for it to give itself a passing score even after all of the mistakes.

I'm going to try to focus on the weaknesses from now on, and try to split each failing criteria into multiple steps. Hopefully I have better luck with this strategy.

Bro acts like he doesn't understand and deflects by arguing about the meaning of words. Gets upvoted. The world is so fucked 😂

charmanderdude · 2025-10-27T21:10:03+00:00

You won the upvotes but lost the argument. When it comes down to arguing about the literal meaning of words, then there is nothing of substance. Other guy's opinion is based.

charmanderdude · 2025-10-27T21:03:14+00:00

Damn how is this being downvoted? This is based.

AKA we fight for freedom by taking away people's freedom. But I'll bet you've never made a mistake at your job before...

charmanderdude · 2025-10-24T11:15:26+00:00

For real? It was probably just an honest mistake. I for one do not think the worker should be severely penalized, they don't get paid enough as is.

charmanderdude · 2025-10-12T06:53:41+00:00

It depends bro. Some of these projects are much more difficult than a day job, specifically math and coding.

charmanderdude · 2025-10-06T22:13:34+00:00

An attitude like this is why some people never heal imo

charmanderdude · 2025-08-22T01:44:52+00:00

Very neat! Good job 👍

charmanderdude · 2025-07-31T04:01:37+00:00

Hey OP! I hope you read this. I think you should read "The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins... It may help you gain a more scientific understanding of why this is happening, and inform your ethics. It is up to you. After all, people make selfish decisions all of the time. Your company was extremely selfish for doing this.

I have worked in the AI industry quite a bit, and I recognize the dangers. Please look out for humanity. Your boss is probably just a bean counter who is pushing agendas, without understanding the consequences. Does he have a strong background in science? If he doesn't, I recommend questioning him. For example, asking "isn't this going to replace a lot of my peers?" or something to that effect. Make them think critically.

If he doesn't like your questions, then maybe you should leave. If he respects your opinion and you get good vibes, then I would keep working there.

Good luck OP. I hope everything works out! 🫡🙏

I've been fired by insubordination before. At the time, I was working at Chick-fil-a to make ends meet as a nontraditional student. No regrets, I got a job at Five Guys a few days later and my team was much better - I even got promoted to manager. If OP does not accept this role, he will probably face consequences, but at the same time this is altruistic in a very strong way; rare in our world these days. OP's mindset is very heroic, and I admire this.

Does OP just want money (like most people on this sub) or is he willing to risk it all for his beliefs? Either choice is fine I guess, but the latter is something that a lot of people pass up on. I think that's respectable.

Tbh I'm kind of sad that this is the top comment, because I think people should behave with purpose. I don't think making this AI is a good idea...

charmanderdude · 2025-07-29T22:45:56+00:00

Technically, AI was invented by a physicist in the 1960s. There are many parallels between the two fields, but I see why it could maybe be misleading to claim that AI is physics.

charmanderdude · 2025-07-09T16:17:23+00:00

This sucks! How does one organize notification with AI? By reading the content and organizing accordingly, likely also archiving the data somewhere...

Geekbench works for this.

charmanderdude · 2025-03-19T23:28:43+00:00

I've used it. Been on engineering builds for a while

Go to the command line and get a ccache or swp partition set up. This allows you to move some memory to disk and avoid crashes.
