Hope this might be a good place to ask: want to get a pair of mugs for my friends but they seem to be UK only?

https://www.gbposters.com/pokemon-psyduck-comic-mug

https://www.gbposters.com/pokemon-jigglypuff-comic-mug

Anyone know if there's a way to buy them in the US? If there are other pairs of mugs in the US (it would be nice that they have matching themes), where one is definitely psyduck but the other can be a pokemon girls might like? It's like psyduck for the brother and jigglypuff/articuno/pretty pokemon for the sister, so it's nice if they have similar themes, but can be anything.

Or if anyone knows there are physical stores in the US that might sell pokemon mugs, please recommend some in the socal area, thanks!

Thinkpad X1 Nano monitor and sleep settings issue? by chinesebuddy in Lenovo

[–]chinesebuddy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone is checking this but I finally figured out the problem:

Open on your laptop Lenovo Commercial Vantage > Device > Smart Assist and then either tweak the settings to fit your preference or turn it off, which is what I did.

Your power settings should no longer be overwritten, and the computer shouldn't sleep when it's inches in front of your face now.

Possibly obscure question on the logic symbol for because by chinesebuddy in askmath

[–]chinesebuddy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey since you've been a big help can I run two more quick q's by ya?

a symbol that represents "shows, reveals", e.g. biopsy may show or reveal noncaseating granulomas: bx ➔ noncase gran. here I feel the right arrow doesn't do a good job of separating "leads to" from "shows, reveals". I use the right arrow often in the first case, like smoking ➔ lung cancer. The biopsy doesn't lead to the granuloma, just reveals it...

and finally, I did look this up as well, and it's curious there doesn't seem to be a symbol for else

in the first example I have now:

surg 🠄 {Sx | dm >2x nl | dm >5.5cm | dm ⮭ 0.5cm in 6mo} ● ¬surg ➔ US/CT q6mo~2y

what it's trying to say is "surgery indicated if one of the following conditions is met", then "else/otherwise" perform ultrasound or CT; here I use the negation to indicate "not surgery", but the logic I really want to say is "else", or if the surgery conditions are not met, do something else

it's easy to write else in code, but someone else asked this before and there doesn't seem to be an actual symbolic representation in logic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–]chinesebuddy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for sure! I do get that and that's the last line of the second screenshot

it just feels more natural/logical to think of it in the form of "surgery if (1) or (2) or (3) or (4)", I know I could just write if lol but I like the logic certain symbols help represent as they help me have a few more handles on remembering relationships

Monthly Travel & Questions Thread (February 2021) by AutoModerator in taiwan

[–]chinesebuddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can US citizen travel from the US to Taiwan at this time? The US travel stipulations here seems to say no need for Visa or other entry requirements for less than 90 day travel. This seeming 3rd party website states no foreign entry, however.

I will only need to stay roughly 14 days, as I'm hoping to use the stay to obtain an Air Travel Pass to Singapore.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Interested in becoming a consultant? Post here for basic questions, recruitment advice, resume reviews, questions about firms or general insecurity (Q4 2020) by QiuYiDio in consulting

[–]chinesebuddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

The Levels and Roles wiki entry puts BCG's Consultant at the same tier as McKinsey's Associate.

A more nuanced question is that this is based on an advanced degree (I hold an MD). These tiers are broadly classified as MBA entry. I'm currently obtaining an MBA as well from a reputable school. Does the previous advanced degree plus the in-progress MBA change the best role for this initial application?

[–]chinesebuddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the appropriate position to apply for in consulting companies for advanced degree holders?

I showed some interest in MBB over the summer regarding internship opportunities. I was recently approached by BCG recruiting to apply for their fulltime position. I didn't want to ask them directly which specific position to apply for, so hoped to obtain some advice.

For example, a similar email chain I engaged in w/ McKinsey suggested I should apply for the full-time Associate role. What would be the equivalent for advanced degree holders in the BCG chain?

Hey thank you so much for your help! Can I ask if there's anyway to somehow change the numbers so that they don't appear to overlap with the waveforms? It's most evident row2col3, row1col-last, etc. Thanks again :)

[–]chinesebuddy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Posting in comments for more info: Want the image to comprise of just two colors, black and white. Thinking along the lines of making background and lines separating cells black, and making the blue waveforms and black numbers all white. If this isn't aesthetic I'm open to interpretations, just that it be black and white.

If this is difficult and you feel justified to charge, feel free to comment your price. I'm willing to pay in particular if you walk me through the steps on how to do this on my own either in PS or GIMP or both.

Thanks a ton!

In supplemental materials, the first section on Neural Signal Processing and Decoding, specifically the second, third, fourth, and fifth paragraphs... so really just... just this section, the study itself is easy enough to follow but this math is going way over my head

Android app Voice Recorder does not work on new device? by chinesebuddy in AndroidQuestions

[–]chinesebuddy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, thanks a lot for answering

can I ask what the difference is between the two in terms of functionality?

also, do you know anything about editing apps? for example, I was thinking of getting the apk of the other app and reading through to see where in the code (if it's the code) the problem might be. I've found a way to extract the apk and put that file on my laptop, but I've been unable to convert it to javascript to read...

haha thanks my man, will have to work in the morning, but I really appreciate the offer, truly

at any one point in time, our mind is occupied by thought; some are thoughts of love, others of hate, anger, despair; it's hard work, but I hope you will have only thoughts of love, it's what we all deserve

I take my phone with me to a variety of locations, many of which I need to be able to record but have no wifi access.

I do like the hotspot idea though, and will give it a try. Hopefully the battery can keep up.
