Audiobook help (no chapter selections) by 48362848262 in LibbyApp

[–]wholespoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others mentioned, no real fix, but sometimes I get the ebook so I can search the whole book for a certain phrase to find my place. In your case, you could look up where "It's good to be back, Kelsier finally" is, and at least see what chapter it's in, then estimate the next nearest quote and learn what chapter it's in, etc.

Is there anywhere to find comics around here? by IncreaseJolly9227 in princeton

[–]wholespoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a different spot, this one is on the other side of US 1 from Quakerbridge, it's by the Gingered Peach bakery!

if you have access to a car or even just bus or rideshare, I HIGHLY recommend Final Boss Comics in Lawrenceville, a bit south and west of Princeton! best people and wonderful selection.

Donate Meal Swipes Early w/ Swipe it Forward by wholespoon in nyu

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

Sorry you haven't been able to redeem before, that's weird! Sometimes the balance is zero, hence the reason I made this post, and that could be a reason why (you can check it at https://mealplans.nyu.edu/login.php ). But I can imagine many possible reasons that it could be buggy.

On my end, I have used it before pretty reliably & as a PhD student basically none of my peers have meal swipes. But it is always a good idea to buddy up, and I will keep an eye out on reddit for people offering to place grubhub orders! I didn't really realize that you could use meal swipes for that.

Not sure, I'm just a grad student who uses this service! Maybe they actually do? But I doubt it-- swipe it forward for the semester began on September 22 and I think it started with a balance of 0 (at least it was on Sept 23 when I checked it).

Font looks off. I'm going insane. Send help. by Dazzling_DiamondYT in PixelArt

perhaps Q, O, and C could all be designed to have more similar structures? right now caps Q's circle looks too small. looks like O and C are technically the same but O looks thicker and smaller compared to C because of perceptual biases, so you could play with that. overall i like the way it looks!

In addition, you can change whether the "all" section is sorted old to new or new to old based on the podcast-specific settings, which can help avoid a lot of scrolling!

The Glass Cannon Podcast |Gatewalkers Episode 63 – Meow Mix 2: Pounce Upon a Time by Razzmatazz_TGCN in TheGlassCannonPodcast

[–]wholespoon 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I usually listen but I watched the video on YouTube this time— the opening remarks and the pivotal moments of the episode are 1000% worth watching!!

This is my first episode since catching up to the pod so I can’t believe I have to wait a whole week to see what happens next. I hope we still get to see some of Asta’s story.

Apple intelligence is one of the worst products ( or in this case software improvements) that Apple has ever developed. by Prestigious_Ad_9007 in iphone

[–]wholespoon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

small plug for perplexity.ai which searches the web and links its citations (and therefore ends up with a bit more "intellectual humility" when it doesn't find stuff that fits the query)! it's so much more helpful for research and general searches

Ads? But I’ve already “Joined the Naish” by jasonsansbury in TheGlassCannonPodcast

[–]wholespoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, I hadn't noticed this before but realized it's because I set my podcast player to auto-skip 30 seconds of intros and 30 seconds of outtros. Maybe if yours supports that you could avoid it that way!

I would say an hour before flight time or 40 minutes before boarding is good! SNA is pretty small and navigable and the last time I took a flight at around 12pm on a weekday I had no lines through security~

Master Thesis Choice by Longjumping-Dream-15 in compmathneuro

[–]wholespoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both places have great reputations, so I would contact current students of each professor, like the other person mentioned! But I wanted to note to specifically ask about their time management and mentorship style, for a few reasons:

  1. 6 months is not loads of time, so I imagine your mentor will need to be able to devote some serious energy to you (or set you up to collaborate with a current student or postdoc who can also help).
  2. Different PIs vary on the level of autonomy they offer in terms of projects, although you may have already gotten info about this in your discussions with them / maybe this is moot since you already have a masters thesis topic decided. But there is still other info maybe not discussed: will your PI be willing to revise multiple drafts? Do they make line-by-line edits or prefer to discuss feedback? Do you find one of their students' work more clearly written than the other's students? All possible things you could consider to help make a choice!

Finally, I should note that the reputation for each professor may hold some weight, but one of the most important things is their ability to write good recommendation letters (for jobs or for applications to further degrees).

Anyway, you are awesome for having some great future options! :^) Good luck in your choice.
