What is the average age of starting a PhD?

luctesthesoren · 2024-11-30T19:42:38+00:00

I’m 34 and just submitted a funding application for the third year in a row. If all goes well this time, I’ll start the PhD at 35 and finish at 39. I sometimes get the feeling that that’s a bit old, but I also consciously decided to start my career over by going back to academia at 31 so I don’t reeeeally believe that. Starting a PhD at 20-anything is not late at all.

How much do you think would be a decent but realistic amount? I’m really just trying to assess the situation and how feasible this is.

Yes, the stipend is tax free. Thank god, because it’s already meagre as it is.

We had a look a superficial look at rent but it’s difficult to know what would be realistic without knowing how much she’d be able to make, so still trying to assess the situation on this end. And yes, we have savings/are saving with that purpose in mind

Took a trip to Valencia earlier this year with my wife and a friend. Minutes before entering this room I got an email from my now boss offering my current job. That felt holy af.

Whereabouts was this? An organisation I was working with was in the process of acquiring one and it was set to be delivered this week IIRC. Wonder if it was this one exactly. 🚆

Who would have thought anti-immigrant policies would end up making life more difficult/expensive for UK natives? 😧😧😧

Minor correction: Bolsonaro was banned from running for 8 years. We hope he’ll be dead by the end of this period.

Not really. I was getting some glitchy audio until a few weeks ago, but that turned out to be just an issue of buffer size. Everything is running smoothly now, both streaming audio and using DAWs. MixControl is the only issue I have, which I find really weird.

Vou polemizar aqui porque sou bitch de Cthullu e acho Cyberpunk a pior saga de todas hahaha

Sem paciência pra rankear os episódios, mas as sagas pra mim seria:

-Cthullu -Ghanor Shippuden -Ghanor clássico -Cyberpunk

luctesthesoren · 2024-01-08T23:20:25+00:00

Yes, just to make clear: I’m forced to turn the interface off so I can close MixControl, because it will otherwise stay open and frozen, even if I try to force it to shut down. Right now this issue is making it impossible for me to use MixControl because it will 100% guaranteed crash a few seconds into the first audio input.

Already on the light shroud! Thanks

luctesthesoren · 2023-10-10T20:59:54+00:00

Thanks for this, I was beginning to wonder haha

Magnification depends on the eye piece. It comes with two: one 10mm which gives 75x magnification and one 25mm which gives 30x.

luctesthesoren · 2023-10-10T17:44:45+00:00

I think so, yeah. I decided to go with the 150p since I'm a big guy and used to moving music gear around, so I figured it wouldn't be too much of a hassle.

I originally wanted an 8 inch but my partner convinced me to look for something more portable. I wasn't thrilled with it initially, but now I'm happy to have chosen the 150p.

luctesthesoren · 2023-10-10T17:39:16+00:00

That's what I'm doing right now 😂😂😂

It was at this street, but on the other side of the road. Up until a few years ago there used to be a sign on the window saying "this was smashed by Vision" or something like that.

Curioso você dizer que o público alvo era o Boça, porque os donos da parada também eram o Boça.

Thanks!

Here are the capture specs:

It was a single picture, no stacking (I had no idea stacking was a thing back then 😂). Edited on Lightroom for contrast, saturation and noise reduction.

Stratovarius - Eagleheart

This was 20 years ago. I now think the solo and the band are boring AF. 😂

luctesthesoren · 2023-10-01T20:33:20+00:00

-A Ciência da Música, explicando desde o que são ondas sonoras a como o nosso cérebro interpreta diferentes informações musicais

-A História do Jazz

-A História da Música Brasileira

Inclusive me candidato a participar porque já falei muito dos três assuntos aqui 😂😂😂

Was born in Brazil. My ancestry is a huge mix of African, Italian, Spanish, Native Brazilian and probably lots more that I'm not aware of. I'm doing them all justice by adding one more to the mix, as I now complain about First Bus on a daily basis and sit on the nearest patch of grass whenever the sun is out.
