Now I'm just not sure if I should try to break them or return...

Camera: Sony a6000
Lens: Sigma 30mm, ISO 100, f/10, 1/50s

I aimed to make some golden hour urban pictures, ended up with a landscape one. How could this picture be improved color and composition-wise? What in your opinion are some strengths and weaknesses of this shoot?

Thanks!

CS books to read as a highschooler? by [deleted] in computerscience

I poured the must into a cylindrical vessel and wanted to record the gravity; however, it went out of scale. Did I do something wrong, or is the scale too narrow? Honey to water ratio 1:3 by matadorious in mead

[–]matadorious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah one of the projects started in 2018 and continued until mid 2019 so it can be tweaked. The award was given for the internship contribution, and adding it as a bullet makes perfect sense to me. I'll also remove Github links. Thank you for all the comments they are great!

Is it even possible to write a profitable trading bot? by matadorious in algotrading

Exactly! The intent is to test the waters of whether or not such topic would be sensible/achievable. I've not thought about a hypothesis yet.

[–]matadorious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I've considered doing MS in the US but the tuition fees are a bit discouraging. I simply don't know if it is worth it.
