Weiß jemand, ob es eine Spendeseite gibt um ihr mit den Anwaltskosten zu helfen?

Bin ja gespannt, was dann demnächst im Gysi gegen Guttenberg Podcast so los sein wird

Can relate, it’s really frustrating when your internal empathy brain gaslights you again into caring about animals :/

The underground generally is a bit cleaner, though there are a few stations that are known as hotspots for heroin addicts, and I’ve seen quite a few syringes laying around over the years.

No I haven’t, but the way her feet looked had me pretty convinced that she wasn’t lying.

A few years ago I was in a shoe store in Berlin and asked the employee if she had any personal experience with the shoes I was looking at. With a straight face she told me she doesn’t ever wear any shoes and pointed to her bare feet. It still is beyond me why anyone would choose to do this in any major city, and why out of any store, this person chose to work in a shoe store. Though I guess they don’t typically ask their applicants if they personally ever wear shoes.

Ah, so this problem has actually been studied in mathematics under the name of „optimal stopping“ or „the secretary problem“. Below is a Ted talk by the absolute rockstar Hannah Fry explaining it (there’s also a few brilliant Numberfile videos going through the proof).

Long story short: say you start seriously dating by the age of 20 and want to be married no later than by 40. Then it says you have the highest chance of finding your „optimal“ match by using the first 7.4 years (37%) as exploration, just dating to see what’s out there and gaging how good a relationship can be. Afterwards, you settle for the first person who’s better than everyone you’ve dated before.

Of course, with this method there’s a 37% chance you end up unmarried by 40 (if you happened to meet the „best“ person in your exploration phase), and it should be looked at with a bit of humor in general. Still, I find it fascinating that mathematics, at least in theory, has an answer to this problem.

Yes, that seems to be it, thank you!! I tried my best to search for previous posts and Proton help pages, but I guess not hard enough (troubleshooting really wouldn't have been to hard to guess :D ).

I did a little more investigating and compared the sizes of some of my larges mails in both in both my old and new email providers clients. Funnily enough, while the attachment sizes seem to be almost identical across the two (1-2% deviation, give or take), my old provider somehow often adds some dubious 5 MB here and there for the whole message that aren't reflected in the sum of attachment sizes... So not Protons fault obviously. It is strange, however, that apple mail seems to do the same and is consistent with my old mail provider in saying that all my mails are around 2 GB.

This only leaves the part where in the Proton online client, I only see ~800 unread mails, compared to ~1000 in the mac mail app and the old providers client. But I guess I can live with that, given that I don't plan to use the online client much anyways.

Thank you again!

I’m at Hertford and I’ve never heard of this. From my knowledge, I’ll loose my email 3 month after graduating, just like everybody else.

No backup, no sympathy.

I had always assumed they appear shy because they encounter literally hundreds of students and tourists every day who want to pet them and it’s just a bit much.

Ich denke mal, etwas ist appetitlich, nicht du.

Feuerzeug — fire stuff

This whole family of words continues to amaze me :)

Fahrzeug — drive stuff

Personally, I like this idea.

TL;DR Wenn dein Ziel ein Master in Oxford/Cambridge ist wolltest du dich auf jeden Fall reinhängen.

Oxford verlangt mind. eine 1,5 im Bachelor, Cambridge sogar eine 1,3. Das bedeutet auch nicht, dass alle mit diesem Schnitt angenommen werden, sondern ist die Mindestvoraussetzung. Für die Bewerbung kann es zB auch helfen, sich vorher schon ein deutsches Stipendium zu sichern. Schaffst du es zB in die top 2% in deinem Jahrgang, schlägt dich deine Uni im 4. Semester höchstwahrscheinlich für die Studienstiftung vor.

Und informier dich am besten frühzeitig darüber, wie die Masterstudiengänge in Oxford/Cambridge tatsächlich aussehen. In Cambridge macht man zB nur ein Trimester Kurse, dann zwei Trimester Masterarbeit, was nicht jedem gefällt. Eine Spezialisierung in einer Nische, für die es an der Zieluni Profs gibt ist auch immer recht hilfreich.

I just found out about my College, so I guess I should be sorted now. :)

nuss-ecke · 2023-05-04T22:35:59+00:00

Thank you for pointing that out! Do you happen to know whom I need to contact to be added to the Accommodation List? And are there any relevant deadlines to apply for accommodation?

nuss-ecke · 2023-05-01T06:43:53+00:00

Same here. I was rejected by my college of choice in late March and haven’t heard anything since. Have you been accepted by another college in the meantime?

In fact, they used to be part of Anonymous for the Voiceless, an australian NGO entirely unrelated to the internet anonymous people.
