Not to be harsh, but trading and manifestation are not going to get you anywhere. Focus on your studies and relationships, try new activities, keep off drugs, exercise and eat healthy.

Yeah, the boring stuff is how you make life good.

I imagine any historic materialist seeing this meme cringing so hard. Thanks for this comment so I can feel less insane about, you know, not swallowing idealistic imaginary nonsense.

“Middle-of-the-road” in a land of fascist “compatriots”. If you care about the world and not just the US, you would quickly (or maybe slowly for you in particular) find out that the overwhelming majority of the world are “radicals” (gasp!) who consider Israel to be currently conducting a genocide in Palestine.

E Pluribus Anus

There are layers to being liked:

1. Are you nice and pleasant around people? Always do this.
2. Are you agreeable and easy to work with? It really depends on you and the job, but here you have to be smart.
3. Do people respect you? You have to be honest and good at what you do, while keeping a careful balance of the second point.

Balance is hard and sometimes you may just find out that the issue is that the workplace do not deserve you and you need to move on.

Okay. I think I saw the first episode once so I would not know.

Parent comment tried to avoid spoilers and you just came in like “Hold my beer”.

Using public benchmarks and previously unreported data from within Anthropic, The Anthropic Institute is showing that AI is already accelerating the development of AI systems. To take just one example: today, Anthropic engineers on average ship 8x as much code per quarter as they did from 2021-2025.

Yup. Lines of code as a metric is pure bait for investors.

So easy it should be illegal! I mean, how can we feel superior if we are not wasting huge amounts of time setting things up!?

You mean key based SSH authentication? Yes, but if you have done so and this is the only attack vector, I do not see the need for fail2ban.

Well… People fuck around and seems to have been doing so for a while…

I think the point is rather that it is distinguishable for someone knowledgeable on the subject, but not for someone is not. Thus making it harder to evolve from the latter to the former.

NixOS for self hosted is awesome! A few lines of code and you have set up a service on bare metal, without needing to think about dependencies. Just look at this beauty, OP:

  services.immich = {
    enable = true;
    host = "0.0.0.0";
    port = 2283;
    openFirewall = true;
  };

My worst dependency conflict was a libcurlssl error when trying to build on a precompiled base docker image.

Yea, totally agree. Was just messing around.

Differential geometry along with complex, real and functional analysis could perhaps be considered advanced calculus?

I have a friend who got diagnosed with ADHD and first received meds as an adult. They are definitely 100 % themselves and at the same time better functioning than before. Talk with your parents (or directly with your doctor). You will always start with a low dose with regular checkups. Have an honest conversation with yourself, your parents and your doctor about what you really are afraid of and if the risk has any basis in reality.

Speaking from a pure maths’ perspective here: Frankly, a little bit. I think at the university research level, the academically inclined professors might be a bit tired to be sidelined with the applied ones, especially when the latter are applauded for their industrial cooperation (read research investments) and appliances (read private ownership over publicly funded research). My study mates and I joked about applied math being dirty, but in reality it is more the absence of creativity and rigor that is the problem with applied math in my opinion.

To me, math is all about answering cool questions, sometimes posing even cooler questions in the process. Maybe an appropriate analogy would be whether an artist judges those that make commercials. Exploratory work can take a life of their own that is usually not possible when the format of the answer is predefined. That being said, I do not really judge, I only think that the different expressions are (usually) quite distinct in direction and content. I did not do math for money, though I rely on my mathematical skills for income.

Mathematician here (algebraic topology). Pure maths is pretty much an internship in academia. Applied math is anything between basically physics to actuary and finance. Since pure math is highly academic, though, there is no predefined job path following a degree, which is why the question is as interesting as it is hard to answer.

In academia, we do weird and wonderful things that only a few peers in the world probably will see and understand, due to the highly specialized fields of study. In industry, anecdotally, we do surprisingly little math and are mostly sought for analytical skills and proficiency in problem solving.

Sadly, most people that hire us outside of academia do not know much math themselves. I believe there are lots of real problems that could benefit from having a mathematician working on them, but there is just too little understanding of mathematics to identify the need.

Yea, and by pressure you mean giving a big fat fuck you and sail the high seas? 🏴‍☠️
