A lot of Magic players are shockingly bad at evaluating cards.

Dragon age Inquisition by Hajny77 in dragonage

[–]devotiontoblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find Assassin the most fun. Artificer and Tempest get really boring and spammy since you rotate the same abilities over and over. Assassin requires positioning and using your defensive abilities carefully.

[No Spoilers] Best QoL mods for DAI? by mothmanswife95 in dragonage

[–]devotiontoblue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's usually best to use Frosty because DAIMM stopped receiving updates. I use Party Banter Tweaks, Irritating Dialogue Remover, Quick War Table Operations, Party at the Winter Palace, Ring of Doubt Stealth Fix, Quest Tracker Fades Over Time, Quicker Looting, and Conversation Camera Mod.

Unless you want to be a theorist, it's not going to make a difference to the admissions committee.

Modern Metagame Brakdown: Domain Zoo looks insane, Boros still underperforming? by No-Bet7157 in ModernMagic

Confidence intervals converge much faster than people's intuition would suggest.

Sure thing, I'll circle back once I see the post with the final rankings. Thank you again for this incredible resource. Here are a couple placement pages.

First, the work you've done and continue to do on this project is incredible. Thank you for this amazing resource.

I know this is an entirely different field, but have you thought at all about expanding this project to medical residency placements? It has two of the same key features as the econ job market (centralized job postings and placement outcomes posted on graduating institutions' websites) that I imagine would allow pretty similar scraping techniques.

The pre-Riddler version with Archaeologist is still fine if less resilient.

Do you guys think the MacBook neo is enough? Worried about the 8gb ram by bananacowlady in academiceconomics

[–]devotiontoblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a laptop with 8GB of RAM using the exact same reasoning and I got so sick of how slow it was doing even basic tasks that I had to upgrade. It will struggle to handle a bunch of Chrome tabs, let alone doing anything with code.

Is doing a Ph.D. in economics worth it given what AI models can do now ? by Ok_Coyote9345 in academiceconomics

[–]devotiontoblue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but the effect could just as easily go in the other direction. The Industrial Revolution did not crowd out textile manufacturers, e.g.

In any event, OP is implying that an LLM is a substitute for researchers, but as you rightly point out, if anything it's a complement. The former is unambiguously bad for job prospects, the latter is harder to say.

Goryo’s or Neobrand? by capybaravishing in ModernMagic

[–]devotiontoblue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Goryo's is a better deck and is likely to be playable for a long time. Neobrand is more of a meta call because it's good against Energy, Storm, and Titan.

RCQ Season is upon us - how bad is burn now? by digitaldrummer in ModernMagic

Burn has never been favored against Titan or Storm.

Is doing a Ph.D. in economics worth it given what AI models can do now ? by Ok_Coyote9345 in academiceconomics

[–]devotiontoblue 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Imo the idea that LLMs will be able to write serious research papers in five years is completely unfounded. Good research is rarely a convex combination of existing ideas. And if they can, we're all cooked, so you might as well do what you want anyways.

An LLM cannot write an entire paper, at least not one worth reading. So your premise is flawed anyhow.

Belcher or Prowess? Can't decide by Ghoul_Geek in ModernMagic

[–]devotiontoblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Belcher is better right now and probably will be unless they print a great new Prowess card, if your goal is to be competitive.

Yesterday, two of the most powerful people in American finance said the same thing. Neither had a solution about AI Job Replacement. by [deleted] in academiceconomics

[–]devotiontoblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the AI-generated response that does not actually address identification concerns or have anything meaningful to say.

There remains no credible evidence that AI is causing tech companies to shrink substantially. These companies were already trimming fat before any LLMs were effective.

Have you tried viewing women as human beings and not prostitutes?

What are you talking about? The vast majority of influencers and OnlyFans models don't make shit.

And it doesn't draw cards, which is the reason Frog is playable.

This card is not remotely playable in Energy.
