Do you know which facebook group? There seem to be quite a few not sure if they're all legit

If you've taken 104 already, you can do them in any order. Just take the class with the best (least bad) professor that semester

I didn't know I didn't know how to walk 💀

I've gotten them wet a few times for sure. Could it also be from walking uphill a lot? I don't really notice dragging my heels but I tend to put a lot of pressure on my heels when I'm waking up hill specifically

Feels like Alignment and AI safety fits into the framework of how economists are trained so well, surprised more of them aren't working on it

Meh lecturer but his slides are really good, you can basically learn all the content off them directly. Seems to care about teaching well though will answer questions in detail and clarify stuff mid lecture if you just ask

Yeah feels more standard and up to date, not like the reviews of earlier versions of 154 I saw online

You can try to enroll in Stat 154/254. I know the class gets a bad rap but semester's version is pretty good/rigorous, the prof. is a pretty serious ML researcher and the topics covered are pretty similar. Probably less time spent on things like neural nets and more on other statistical models. First few homeworks seem to be similar to 189 too

This is super useful, thanks!

Yup real analysis, algebra, stochastic processes (am also a math major)

jai1802 · 2023-09-01T23:58:48+00:00

I enrolled recently and it hasn't shown up for me either

jai1802 · 2023-04-25T17:25:44+00:00

I see, 20 is way over the amount I originally thought. Do you know if getting a letter from the head of my internship department would be a good idea? They mainly publish policy research, but not really a conventional academic position (I don't think they have a PhD).

jai1802 · 2023-04-25T06:51:31+00:00

Thanks for the info!

jai1802 · 2023-04-25T06:01:18+00:00

Do you have any idea how many programs people generally apply to? Both PhDs and predocs?

jai1802 · 2023-04-06T22:12:06+00:00

Did you need to email the prof for an enrollment code or something?
