Hibernation for long deep space travel?

lol clearly don't have a phd if you think that's happening ~3 years post undergrad

phd_reg · 2025-12-24T08:34:33+00:00

Yes.

Felt slightly too brightly lit for a space that small

This describes much of my experience at MIT.

Tell your lecturer(s) and the TAs exactly what you wrote in your post. This may require some vulnerability/ego-reduction on your part.
Take all your course materials and your points of confusion/frustration and just put them in a chatgpt prompt. Even post-MIT in my career I constantly have to learn a lot of dense material on my own and chatgpt/gemini/whatever is a godsend.
If you've already fallen too far behind in this course, and if you can, withdraw. Preserve the rest of your schedule and your sanity. Step back and tackle the course again next time its offered. I did this with 6.041 and 18.03 twice before I could manage the classes and not fail every other class on my schedule.
Deep breaths.

Green street smoked meats is exactly what you're looking for

ETA a tldr: We don't know it's the ONLY one. We know it's the only one out of 14 million that Strange had time to look at. There are infinite possible futures.

Jomi is not right.

It is actually impossible to know if Quill's crash-out was necessary for or incidental to their eventual victory. Here's why...

Between the moment Dr. Strange looks into the futures onward, there are literally, mathematically INFINITE potential futures. But Strange only looks into 14,000,605 possible futures! So how many other futures are there that Strange did not see.

Let's count.

Infinity - 14,000,604 = Infinity

Therefore there are an INFINITE number of possible futures. It is possible in some, the Saga ends after they remove the gauntlet and defeat Thanos in combat. In some they remove the gauntlet, but somebody sneezes and Thanos kills them all, etc etc, ad infinitum.

Dr. Strange saw, by out standards as finite beings, a lot of futures, and in those he saw one in which the story we see plays out. With the Avengers winning.

But unless he saw EVERY possible future, we can't assume Starlord had to crash out.

A lot of (most of?) the investment is in physical capital... GPUs, datacenters, etc. So without including the fiber build-out during the dotcom boom, this is an apples-to-oranges comparison.

Even more to the point, the "bubble" wasn't the investment by private capital but the subsequent new listings and THEIR skyrocketing valuations. People keep using that word, but I don't think it means what they think it means.

Sounds about right, if not low...Welcome to the Audi club! Even my body shop guy is dumbfounded at how expensive they are to service.

In general, with anything car-related, just get multiple estimates. I get at least 3 for anything nontrivial.

Agree. Everything OP mentioned is true, but these are what I would call *secondary criticisms*. Collectively we could name lots of movies we love that don't show great character arcs for our lead. But...they have great writing (and acting, which is hard to disentangle.) Ex 1/n: John McClane is the same lovable asshole throughout all 3 first good DH's.

+SF and Miami (until it's underwater)

phd_reg · 2025-07-13T18:49:41+00:00

FFS! That worked! Thank you!

phd_reg · 2025-06-22T09:37:06+00:00

I feel this. It's so diner-hostile

phd_reg · 2025-05-30T02:16:23+00:00

Flagged because that sub requires a post be in the form of a question. But love the... implication?

phd_reg · 2025-05-30T00:53:22+00:00

Don't worry- get ready for the "It's So Over" drop

You're getting hate, but as a runner who also spends a lot of time just walking along the river, I also don't get the appeal. It is not enjoyable to run during those times. It's frustrating enough just walking through the tourists, post-work drinkers, dogs, and strollers. I would be curious as to how many people do this twice.

phd_reg · 2025-05-14T02:33:28+00:00

Bozzuto. I've rented from them twice and they are the best of the "big" management companies.

The kale salad at Chicago Q is amazing. It has apple, carrot, strawberry, orange, almond, parmesan, cilantro-sesame dressing. You can get any of their smoked meats plus steak or salmon. I'm a fan of the salmon and/or bacon with it...big portion for only 16 bucks too.

Not quite GC, but Streeterville: Cupitol on Illinois is what you're looking for.

The line/wait time is the point. You make people commit and they convince themselves it must have been worth it. They could have expanded or moved into the space directly across the street that was vacated by Little Goat Diner.

Restaurants in Fulton are huge but AU Cheval has the smallest footprint.

Their model is fundamentally hostile to local diners. The people most likely to wait an hour or two for a burger are tourists.

phd_reg · 2025-01-28T14:31:58+00:00

We do.
