10.59am, November 11th 1918: Henry Gunther is the last man to die in WW1. Shot charging at a German machine gun nest a minute before the armistice. The Germans frantically tried to get him to stop. He wouldn't.
My strongest advice to people remains to find someone in undergrad. And if you don’t then go to grad school. In fact finding an S/O is probably the most valid reason to do a masters in humanities or the arts in terms of ROI.
obviously massive congrats to this person!
but is it normal to go from BSc graduation to PhD in under 5 years in the USA? to me the math is 2y MSc, 4+y PhD makes 6+ years?
It's official! I defended my PhD in September and my thesis was accepted yesterday morning! Been in school for 20.5 years (13 for K-12, 3 for undergrad, 4.5 for PhD) and it's hard to believe my time as a student is finally coming to an end, but I am excited for the next chapter!
@elonmusk@cradrrat I use C/C++ for all my projects. Debt Badge, Clucks Capacitor, homemade power-wall, sculpting software for my haptic interface.
I suppose with AI assisting, the clunkiness of developing in C disappears and the efficiency shines. How soon until the language doesn’t matter?
