Sure but it’s lonely at the top. If you rise to the top by backstabbing people, you’ll end up exactly how some people right now are, and you keep trying to accumulate more and be great or whatever messing up everything else and being hated.

While a simple life with your loved ones will give you satisfaction. And satisfaction is the key to happiness. Rather satisfaction is the ultimate happiness.

People copying gpt commands into terminal is bound to be fked by the troll commands, right? Please.

Icy water yes. But cold water was available, the whole reason people find cold water refreshing is because running water/spring water etc are cold and more likely to be safe to drink. While stagnant water were more likely to be warm and have more bacteria, making it lot less safe.

I use messenger on Facebook web through. I do have the app as well, but the web works.

On the other hand I think he’s lucky. He has enough media coverage and people know him. He is under the watchful eyes of many. Anyone else that was in the exact same situation as him without the media making it a big deal like this, would not have made it back. When someone uses his example, all I can think is, you can’t expect people to be lucky as he was.

All my friends that have been to Europe said the racism there is worse than US, because people in US are at least not racist to your face, (or maybe there’s more diversity here and people live in bubbles, this could be significant reason that my friends didn’t think of; they mostly interact with international people).

Most of the time when I hear and see a country being great about society and such, it seems to be great for their own citizens. Which is understandable. But that means we don’t really have much choice of other countries accepting us (I’m brown and have an accent so I can’t fit in in Europe).

None. I just install os and use it without any encryption and such. It’s more important for me to be able to access data on device failure than encrypt it.

Yeah, international fees are super expensive. As someone that has almost always received free education it scares me a lot. Funnily that’s still cheaper than paying US universities.

I’m almost done with my PhD so changing the lab would be more trouble than worth it. If it was allowed I could move and finish PhD remotely in 6-8 months, but I kind of need PhD for immigration points (no work experience in last 5 years). A post doc that pays well would be ideal. But I’m open to industry jobs as well.

Luckily my degree is in the green list for now. I heard they change it based on their demands.

It was helpful, Thank you.

I’ll look into the politics.

Academia does seem a bit small for my field, and being an experienced professor probably would have helped compared to barely finishing PhD. I consider my skills flexible enough to work in a variety of industries, but to qualify for the skilled visa I’d have to find work in the industry I have degree in.

Seems like the right shift is kind of global. I don’t see any other country being a good choice either. And we did see the tension, and the haka.

How’s science though? Main problem we have here is that people don’t really respect science anymore. Which is something that we find really scary long term.

We were thinking of moving using the skilled visa, which seems hard because we need a job offer prior to visa application. So if you have money you can just come?

Any Kiwis here can tell me if it’s a good country to immigrate to? I will have PhD soon, and want to contribute to open access research if possible.

So far the country looks great because we like slow life, but idk if that’s just for citizens or also for immigrants.

I don’t know how comfortable you are writing your own, but pdf saves the components with coordinates, bounding box etc so you should be able to automate it with a small script that reads pdf components directly.

Also try qpdf to convert pdf into qdf format, then you can open it in a text editor, find the element you want to remove. Look at examples of few pages, find the pattern and do regex replace. Make sure to keep a copy and check the diff before accepting it.

Can’t see instructions on how to use it, do I need to do anything non trivial on my phone? Should I test it on an old phone?

It still does not. All the commenter is saying is remember how many kids thought that, and it’s the same when they grow up.

Again, you can type feet instead of ft and it’ll work. You can write ‘feet per second’ instead of ‘ft/s’ and it’ll work. Natural language has its benefits but when you have a very simple syntax model then there’s less chances of it making a mistake.

Same way people in the past probably said there’s no way you can make anything work without a mechanical mechanism? Can you imagine what an electronic device/chip would look to someone from far past? People thought humans couldn’t fly.

Those “fundamental science” is just us making sense of the universe in a way we can observe it and even then we don’t know everything. Can you imagine how different the universe looks if you just shift the electro magnetic waves you can see.

I also like it very much. I hope they make a library for it soon, I can’t wait to use it to make unit aware calculators.

I mean the syntax for gnu units is literally the same unit expression used in math. m^2, cm, m/s etc. the ft;in looks weird because it’s two units combined.

Your example in it would be units 30ft mm , use -t for terse results that’s just the final value.

Doesn’t even work well on a single monitor on Wayland. It gets confused with screen size or sth, fills a small area on top left with screen contents and lot of black space

Warm as in heated water, yes. Room temperature or lukewarm water from the pipes, NO.
