I mean, I’d say it depends on what you do. When I see grad students writing numeric simulations in python I do think that it would be more efficient to learn a language that is better suited for that. And I know I’ll be triggering many people now, but there is a reason why C and Fortran are still here.
But if it is for something small, yeah of course, use whatever you like. I do most of my stuff in R and R is a lot of things, but not fast.
Surprised to learn that there were windows based Supercomputers.
I am so sorry, but several of my favorite journalists are still on Twitter.
I’d also have a look at Darktable.
Not trying to compare google to the Nazis, but this reads a lot like “but he build the Autobahns”.
Also people without a work permit.
Also, the 20k is her fine, they gained the 790k between 20 people.
Don’t know how they distributed it, but 790k for 20 people isn’t a lot of money.
When we had the problem, I talked to him and we ended up on very friendly terms. He gave his best to be quite. Wasn’t perfect, but acceptable.
Wasn’t 85% the magical number?
Imo university most important task is to teach you the basics and how to accumulate and use the knowledge you need to do a job.
If it doesn’t provide a benefit for them, why should they bother? I understand why a teenager would, I would have as a teenager. But as an adult? Who got time for this?
Don’t want to bodyshame, but man, that is an ugly gun.
Alternative medicine is afaik medicine that is not part of traditional academic medical education. This is at least who it would be defined in German. Not sure if it is the same in English. We actually have specific words for that: “Schulmedizin” means academicly accepted medicine.
So yes, it would also be medicine. But different than e.g. ibuprofen or radiotherapy.
But tbh, I cannot think of an example. So maybe there is none? Don’t know, I am personally not that interested in alternative medicine.
I mean isn’t it obviously homoeopathy and a significant part of the rest of alternative medicine (not all of it I guess). It is a billion euro business in Germany alone.
Also, shouldn’t they mention that in the resume?
A little unsure about the “peer based performance review”, sounds like bullying might somehow have to be kept in check. Otherwise this sounds awesome.
I am on linux since 2006. I know there are other distros…
Yes, I understand their reasoning. I still want to use KDE and thus don’t use mint. What is your point? Please stop this.
Yeah, great, you don’t like KDE. Good for you. What does it have to do with me liking KDE very much?
Not chatGPT. But AIs are good at one single thing and that is pattern recognition. And there is a lot of data to train and use those AIs on. Decades of data from your PCs, phones and tablets is on NSA servers. And yes, the NSA did shit like recording you through your notebook camera or recording your phone calls with your first girlfriend.
AI will probably never replace human workers/engineers/artists/…, but sorting through your online history is exactly what AIs excel at.
Also Dragnet policies are used by the police for a long time now. This is pretty much just that. Imo the main question is more if they want to burn that data on this task, because once they do this some people will adjust and it will get harder to get new data.
