I don’t know a lot about other fields but stat people are hired a lot by research institutions. A good statistician can reduce the number of experiments you need to do, being able to test a drug/treatment with 7 people instead of 100 means a lot. They save a lot of money.

Also being able to make inference from past data, incomplete data, use correct math (there is always different ways to solve things) so they don’t make mistakes.

And a lot of people with stat degree join either academia, or other fields that have actual problems and use their background to solve issues.

I guess it can go unnoticed, I use Arch so maybe that’s why I got more involved. I remember searching why auto completion didn’t work, then finding out I need to install bash-completions package. After knowing that it makes one curious about how it works. Then the next stage is writing it for my own programs because it obviously won’t come with bash-completions package.

I once wrote a shell (terminal) to watch anime, and I wrote auto completion for different commands on it, it was really nice to just type play then prefix and then tab for auto completion on anime names, and even for episodes I wrote auto completion give me last episode I watched + 1.

Whenever someone says they don’t really like terminal because they don’t like to type or remember commands. This is what I think “they didn’t use auto complete”.

Auto complete works for file names and paths by default, but the development can write it to only complete certain extensions. Like auto complete for image program only completes image files. Then you have completion for commands, subcommands and flags.

Auto complete is done through calling a bash script with currently typed line, and the bash script can call other commands. So developer can write a really complicated auto complete and make it available as a binary if they want, and just use that in bash. Or you can use many tools that will generate auto complete script for you based on your commandline args.

If you write your own scripts/cli binaries I recommend learning how to write auto complete for it. Makes it incredibly easy to use the tools.

You expected version should always be more than what you’re today. Not because you’re bad but because you’ll just get better anyway. Learn to be satisfied in life with little things and little improvements, those will slowly make things better.

Also I find that having little projects (in computer or real life) where you make things helps with mental health. When you build something, however minor, it gives you the feeling of accomplishment. And if you can focus on making something, solving those problems, then you are sufficiently distracted as well.

It’ll improve with time don’t give up. If on average you are better then you’re past self, you’re doing better than a lot of people

Edit: don’t give up, not sunny give up

Yeah, the house prices has gone up so much it’s crazy. And rent, I can’t believe how different it was 5 years ago. I wish I could have free time to do things while not having to worry about so much

Capitalism

Maybe add a feature where if someone is chatting with >10 people, they aren’t shown for swiping? I don’t know exactly what the limit should be, but I feel like the apps use ‘hot’ profiles that attract people and make them swipe a lot that won’t lead anywhere.

Yeah, using vector graphics on PDF because you can zoom in and you get into that problem. For big drawings I just look at 100% zoom, otherwise if there’s too many lines on small drawings I just make a png instead.

Yup that’s how PDFs are. I think the accessibility option one might have something (never tried parsing that).

Plus if you’re working with language with diacritics then it’s even worse because you can’t even compare the coordinates properly, specially if some of them go beyond the previous characters. Not having the space combined with that meant it was really hard to determine the text, and it saves glyph from the font instead of character info too.

I had an idea I wonder if the energy thing can be salvaged. Like uranium to lead happens naturally and the energy is too little from a single atom. But we don’t have to do things naturally. If I’m controlling the atom itself, maybe I can just split all protons and neutrons from the uranium at once, then I have a bunch of free particles that can go collide with other atoms and start a chain reaction.

I think most powers, even with limitations, probably is going to be useful once we know the clear limits. Maybe not the one that need so much energy and the results are random so you can fail and not be able to try again.

Depends on what “time” is in case of one at a time. Is it plank time, or is it as fast as I can think the command.

Even if nothing can be achieved by controlling it, just being able to feel/see the atoms means I can figure things out as a scientist. Finding how atoms are arranged into molecules, proteins etc are super helpful

Nuclear bombs, or a really good scientist.

This looks like it can counter most powers except ones having effects in far away places

Seems like a small payment honestly

Ability to control every atom in the surrounding area of approx 1 km.

If you have freedom OS, definitely

And risk wiping the life on that planet? Considering something like that happened to native population in America, I guess people don’t care.

Rather, it puts you in debt. And now you have even less power. We should normalize everyone being able to live and not force college on everyone. But also make it free/super cheap so people can attend if they want without having to suffer financially

I was thinking I’d appreciate a website/community where people talk about potential new open source software ideas and interested people can collaborate. Could be small things. And able to filter by category, language, etc.

But I don’t know how the logistics would work. But at least minor things that could be fun. But it could be abused. It’s just my thoughts when I’m like “I wanna make something this week”. Or when I start something and I don’t have the skills for all components.
