What digital art sites are these? Been looking for some good ones.

Oh cool, thanks for that.

This makes me wonder: what if there was a language where variable names are determined according to the type, with the option of overriding with a custom name. So a variable of type http.Request would automatically be named “req”, the next one in scope would be “req2”, etc.

If you think about it, when you solve a physics problem, for instance, you call every mass “m1”, “m2”, etc. Maybe this would be another step in Go’s direction of conforming style to make code more standard and readable.

Don’t do anything in extremes, including not doing anything in extremes.

That makes a lot of sense, thank you so much for the advice.

As a graduating senior in CS who is super interested in working in BCI, may I ask how you got into the field? I would love to work somewhere like Neuralink but it seems that most of these companies are not hiring new grads (understandably, perhaps). I might just get this or openbci and do a project on my own, to start.

These laws exist. You’re not allowed to discriminate based on criminal or arrest record unless it’s relevant to the job (e.g. someone applying to be a delivery driver with 3 DUIs).

The problem is that between two equally qualified candidates, if one has a record and the other is clean, it can be pretty easy to justify just throwing the first one out. And pretty hard to prove that that’s why you were rejected.

You’re blatantly misquoting the person you’re replying to.

Really? Seems like it’d be more reliable and a lot faster to just hop in one of the hundred rickshaws on every street. Besides the fact that they’ll overcharge you if you’re a tourist.

Not the OP, but as I’d say that subjectively speaking, you’re better off going to MIT, but only if you have the passion and drive to succeed at a place like that (which you probably do if you got into MIT).

But for Boston College, Boston University, or Northeastern? You’re probably going to end up paying more than MIT and get an education that’s indistinguishable from UMass, quite possibly worse in some respects.

What people have been saying in this thread is not incorrect (though should be nuanced): the ivy leagues are worth it for the caliber of the student body and reputation; otherwise, go to a (Tier 1) public school.

Unless, of course, you don’t want to and can easily afford otherwise.

Every reply to you is repeating the same thing and they’re all wrong. Woe on the next great sociologist, philosopher, or artist who gets discouraged from study because “just do CS so you can make money” or “just go to the library it’s literally the same thing as four years of training under experts in the field and discussion with other smart young people.”
