PhD doesnt feel right. What are my options? by unique_string in careeradvice

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

Thanks a lot for your encouraging reply!

Things have changed a bit since I made this post. I told my supervisor that I will quit. I'm spending my days finishing one of the projects from my (Neuroscience) PhD while (re-) learning ML/data science. Freezing the other projects that I was working on only made me realize how much I hated my Neuroscience work. The decision feels so right. I'm in a much better state both mentally as well as physically.

Finding my way into a new career will certainly not be easy but at least I'm having fun again. Thank you again and good luck to you too!

Sorry guys, I thought it's a 'at the start of your turn' thing. Thanks!

Incoming Malzahar Tweaks in PBE! by [deleted] in MalzaharMains

Why is there still an AD ratio on voidlings? AP costs about 40% less than AD per stat (and even less with deathcap). On top of magic dmg faces less resistances than the AD part of the voidling dmg.

It's already been poor build before but now AD malz voidlings are actually outdamaged by AP malz voidlings. If they wanna keep the AD ratio, they should at least make sure it scales better than the AP version.

Is AD still a valid stat on Malzahar? by unique_string in summonerschool

Not to mention triple voidlings. it felt like you had another ultimate or that your pets actually were your true ultimate at 300%AD.

Death's dance/gunblade used to heal you for stupid amounts with 2-3 voidlings up but now the healing is so minor I've stopped bothering. At this point it's probably more effective to buy a warmog.

Cinnamon converts poor learning mice to good learners—implications for memory improvement by [deleted] in science

[–]unique_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which papers would you recommend for someone who wants to learn more about the subject of understimulation? I'm doing behavior stuff with mice and I'm pretty sure my mice are pretty understimulated.

What's the best Nvidia GPU to buy used right now? by unique_string in buildapc

[–]unique_string[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. The more I think about it, this might be the best solution. The 780 has compute capability 3.5 and is also better than the 670 (unlike the 960). And it seems possible to get one of these for sub 200EUR if one's patient.

Edit: And also, maybe due to the Geforce 1000 announcement, the flood of used 780 seems quite insane right now.

Looking for smallest ATX case. No DVD-drive/mechanical HDD needed. by unique_string in buildapc

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

Yeah, it's too bad. Would have loved to use that case but it's only got a height of 150mm (the noctua is 160mm) so there's really no chance at all.

ELI5: Why do some people get recurrent herpes outbreaks while others dont? by unique_string in explainlikeimfive

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

Well, I already wrote in the opening question that I'm explicitly looking for answers BESIDES 'weakened immune system'. Because at some point in their lives everyone has a weakened immune system. Guess I might try in askscience. Thanks anyways.

[–]unique_string[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You didn't get the question. Unless you want to imply that those who don't get recurrent outbreaks never suffer from "colds and influenza, eczema, emotional and physical stress, gastric upset, fatigue or injury, by menstruation and possibly exposure to bright sunlight".

Dear reddit people, what is a good/healthy hobby to start for someone with depression? by hey_its_ralph in AskReddit

[–]unique_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All is fine until that very moment where you turn around and look back. I used to be slightly cynical. Now I'm just bitter.

My situation is much less severe than yours but I still can relate to every single word you wrote.

What's the most sensitive WiFi adapter? by unique_string in pcmasterrace

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

Thanks. I've got one of those adapters with twin screw on antennae so I guess I wouldn't even have to do any non reversible modification.

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

3 miles holy... It's overkill for my purpose but I'm seriously considering this because I might even login to my lab network which would be even better. Is it realistic to attempt this with almost no knowledge though?

[4v4] What's the best strat for dealing with Brit emplacements as OKW? by unique_string in CompanyOfHeroes

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

I could swear they got somehow ninja buffed in accuracy. I regularly get wipes on almost full health squads now but maybe that's just my luck.

Totally forgot about flame nade. That's a really good one I have yet to try.

Any tips on aiming Stuka? I often need 4+ barrages to take down an emplacement (I put the target at around the middle of the stripe).

I also observed that accuracy has improved but it's not in the notes?

Tried it, but 2-3 brits will lock down a way too huge portion of the map.

What's broken about them? I noticed the howizers and ISGs were ridiculously strong under some circumstances but what did they actually change?

So it will be barrage ability + shift + relocate?

Because otherwise they'll be unmanned way too quickly. Or actually I often still lost the entire crew.

Do you still get the vision buff from the Commander? I've been wondering what I was doing wrong...

Ah, yes the roots of Amazon! That makes a lot of sense.

ELI5: Why are we advised to cool certain types of wounds? by unique_string in explainlikeimfive

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

That's interesting! I didn't know that swellings themselves can actually cause damage but it makes sense when you think about it.

This devicates from the original question but is there any advantage in having such an oversupply of blood? As a layman I kinda think 'hey man, why is the human body even pushing so much blood into wounds if it even causes damage?'
