I'd definitely go for the Cambridge experience as well. You can always find work at a FAANG when you get back, and most likely it will be easier with your new pedigree. It will also open you doors to join the research groups within those tech companies. Without your degree, these would be close to impossible to get in.
According to the article, the skills gained from decades of manufacturing experience and the yield capabilities are more critical than simple chemistry and metallurgy.
Re: specific tools staying outlawed even after this win:
What about offering a tool for some legit purpose, but it just happens to be the right tool that can be used to repair the protected item?
Absolutely my experience as well... Plus your vendor options are reduced since the location has to be somewhere within driving distance for you, or your "caretaker" so that you can replace that flatlined drive with a new one without significant downtime.
This was a really good story and reminded me of my younger days in the '80s when my cassette deck and Walkman were in constant use. Thanks for sharing...
I don’t agree at all with the arguments here. Terraform is so widely adopted that it has become a basic, almost built-in component of every cloud ecosystem. Hashicorp would have been better off by treating it as a Trojan horse into enterprises and focusing on its other assets. I expect there will be a newcomer that will take advantage of this mishap and we’ll be talking about their solution next year (unless OpenTF manages to win people over).
> Science belongs to everyone, regardless of culture or religion
You might want to reassess where you stand if you truly believe that. All I see is the decline of the scientific organizations (including universities where people are granted PhDs based on their political connections), the explicit desire to separate girls from boys in schools, spending many times more on ministry of religion vs ministry of education, and pro-government scientists making ridiculous claims like “cellphone use at the time of Noah”[0].
> > Turkey is not a muslim turkic nation at all
It's a predominantly islamic turkish speaking nation. You say 'almost all the population claims to be muslim' and say it's not a muslim nation?
Until recently, people used to bring up a widely known joke about “Turks being muslim one month of the year”. You knew Ramadan was starting when the daily papers switched from news stories containing sexy pictures to giveaways of holy texts.
It’s less so these days since many people expect to gain political (= economic) favors through superfluous displays of their muslim faith, usually broadcasted through Instagram.
So many pages were the same unchanged ads in the Shopper every month. Can't you add in some prefiltering for those to reduce the number of pages actually needed to scan?
(Sorry for hijacking the thread...)
That was exactly it… Plus their clumsy rebranding over and over, changing licensing terms that stopped non-enterprise users from adopting, and the CS educators adopting Java and dropping Pascal… They tried to use Delphi as a cash cow when they needed innovation…
This is cooler than ChatGPT and image generation as far as I'm concerned. If they're able to bring out the emotional connectivity and purposefulness of the human voice, it will be revolutionary...
I won the first puzzle in 4 guesses, but had a tough time understanding the rules. I think some more clarification/simplification is in order. For example, it took me a minute to understand the colors represented gold/silver/bronze...
