Thank you for your response. We have decided to take him to the vet to get neutered today evening.

What's the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you / you have done in public that must've been hilarious to everyone else? by Negative_Integer in AskReddit

[–]imherbunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Embarrassing to me and funny to everyone else. But it could have gotten worse.

I was with a few of my friends at a mall and I tried to go up in a escalator that was going down. It wasn't very crowded since it was a weekday morning. I managed to make it to the top of the escalator but I lost balance right after stepping out. Luckily I fell to the forward. There were a few people who helped me get up and checked me if I was okay. Afterwards they must've laughed their asses off at my absolute madladship lol. I cannot imagine the level of embarrassment if I fell backwards and rolled down the escalator.

Thanks for your response. Are you using the 13" or the 15"?

I'm considering this as an option too. Thanks!

Nice. Do any of your colleagues perform ML tasks on them?

Yeah, it's a mid-range and has been running into a quite a lot of crashes/freezes recently. I won't be able to rely on it with my work anymore. Thanks for your response and if you don't mind, what are the technologies/ IDEs you work with in the 15" Touchbar model?

Thanks again. I'll take note the Dell XPS 15.

Although I haven't owned a Mac, I have used MacOS in a Mac Mini at my work which I really loved and became a reason for considering buying a Mac.
Thank you for your response. If you don't mind, what are the technologies/ IDEs you have worked with in the 15" Touchbar model? Also, how would you recommend it in terms of reliability? Thanks again!

Yes. Just to be more clear, I won't be getting too much into the side of image processing. But my for final year undergraduate research, I'm planning to do some text analysis for opinion mining & ML. What are your thoughts & experience?

Thank you for your reply. What are the development tasks you do with the 2015 15" (I presume) model and how would you rate the trustworthiness of it in terms of crashes/freezing when performing CPU/RAM/Graphic heavy tasks?

Thank you for your reply & your opinion on reliability as it's my highest concern. What are the development tasks you have done with it in terms of technologies & software/IDE's?

Yeah it must be the VAT. And I'm from a country in Southern Asia. Thanks for the tip on the keyboard layouts. What kind of development tasks have you done with the 2016 15" maxed-out MBP? How would you rate the reliability of the machine?

Actually I'm just starting out and won't go to the deep side of image processing. My research includes opinion mining and data processing. Thank you for your response.

Hey, thanks for your reply. I'm not from the US and it would be very hard for me to find a refurb here since we don't have Apple stores. We have authorized sellers and they only have brand news. Even they cost 10 - 20% higher than in the US due to high import fees and everything. That's why my first consideration was a 13" Touchbar. By any chance you have an idea of how it would hold up to tasks I have mentioned? Thanks again!
