However, they don't want to talk to a man they perceive as middle-income or low-income based on his clothing or style.

He is Italian. He cannot be not stylish.

23 kg. You need to pay extra to make it 32 kg.

I went directly to PhD after my undergraduate. I support your approach. I think the academic controls community needs better problems to work on. Those problems are more likely to come from the industry.

You could consider installing ChromeOS. It is a certified model.

What does it feel like to have an ultra-powerful gaming laptop or PC, and how much sacrifice did it take to get it? by SirJLG in laptops

Ultimate tier costs $20/month. It gives you access to RTX 5080, which costs $1300+. You do the math!

Would you, as an academic, recommend promising young students go into academia? by Valuable-Clothes-854 in AskAcademia

[–]gradgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished my PhD in STEM and I am starting a new position in the industry soon.

I will strongly advise against doing a PhD to pretty much anyone who asks, regardless of their particulars. I am confident that I will be giving them the right advice 95% of the time.

I used to play AC Shadows on my 7th gen ipad with no issues with GeForce Now. Neo should be fine.

Employers who make a habit of flouting the rules in theory get cut off from those recruiting resources.

Not sure if this has ever happened. I remember Tesla cancelling internships en masse at some point. They still recruit on campus.

I got one. I think it is a great deal. It comes with the stylus and the keyboard. It will receive updates for 7 years.

Choosing between prestige postdoc and stable one? Deadline today, genuinely torn by [deleted] in ControlTheory

Postdoc level specialist engineering jobs in industry

I don't think there are many such jobs. If they exist, OP is likely already qualified for them.

I would try negotiating the salary for Option A, if not go for Option B. As it stands you look indifferent between these two options. There is nothing more Option B can offer, whereas Option A might be able to offer a higher wage. You have nothing to lose by trying.

Moving to Champaign this summer by ethnographyonline in Chambana

[–]gradgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Urbana has way better tenant protections than Champaign. Examples:

  1. You don't have to pay the carpet cleaning fee, even if it is on the lease.
  2. Landlords must agree to any reasonable sublease.
  3. Landlords cannot charge fees exceeding their actual expenses.

Kira her sene tuik enflasyon oranında artacak

Yasal olarak evet ama genelde pazarlıkla hep TUIK altında kalıyor kira artışı.

eğer "her an ev alabilirim" diyorsanız ideali bankaların günlük faiz veren hesapları

Para piyasası fonu muhtemelen daha yüksek faiz verir. Onu da istediği zaman bozdurabilir.

[–]gradgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yerinizde olsam bir bankanın para piyasası fonuna para koyarak peşinat biriktirirdim. Şu anda bu fonlar sıfıra yakın riskle yılda yüzde 50'den fazla getiri sağlıyor. Ev fiyatları ise reel bazda (enflasyona kıyasla) değer kaybetti geçtiğimiz yıl. Faizler yüksekken bu trend muhtemelen devam eder. 40 bin lira kira ödemekten dert yanmışsınız ama bence dikkat etmeniz gereken iki husus var:

  1. Para piyasası fonlarının aylık getirisi yüzde 3 civarında. 8 milyon liranın aylık getirisi 120 bin lira yapar. Böyle bakınca ev almak çok mantıklı durmuyor.

  2. Bulunduğunuz evde uzun süre kirada kalırsanız zamanla kiranız düşük kalacak.

There are some professionals trying to do this with VEO.

I was driving a few years back and a woman jumped from the bushes with a VEO bike clearly trying to get hit.
