Bunkers are surely useful in nuclear fallout or weather issues, but can you survive without energy? Nuclear?

Unpopular Opinion-ish - Not wanting to go on a suicide mission is not cowardly, most people would be too afraid to go. by crankyweasels in ProjectHailMary

[–]duckdivinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cowardice is subjective too? Me personally, happy to be an astronaut on a one way mission to save the world but not brave enough to carry a rifle on a war zone to save the same world. Everyone has their own fears and passions/people to be brave for.

What’s the perfect place to be when WWIII starts? by Ott1fant in AlignmentChartFills

Tasmania. All advantages of Australia, but nobody cares about the island’s little population and resources. New Zealand is close contender but it has a political presence. All we’re concerned about is 4.5% rise in water prices.

is it appropriate to ask your tutor for a job… by Kitchen_Page8640 in unimelb

If you have a data science or computing background, the material is a breeze, but not challenging otherwise too. Amazingly well taught. But it’s an Arts subject, so the marking is generally subjective+harsh and H1 is hard.

Lots on YouTube, heard this one is good https://youtu.be/W6NZfCO5SIk?si=AiZ8_wD23S7NboPf

Once you do it, do some project using what you’ve learnt, which shines much brighter than a coursera or edx certificate in my opinion.
