@ashtonshudson@lemire Random and nondeterministic aren't the same thing. For a statistician or machine learning researcher, "random" means every bit is equally likely to be every value. Something following another distribution might be called "stochastic".
$30,000 is the cost of the average wedding,
4 hours is the length of the average wedding.
Taking out a $30,000 loan to pay for a 4-hour wedding is crazy to me.
@MusicOfLee @enioeyment I mean, what about paying $5 to avoid that hassle? There are lots of things we could do ourselves if we just spent the time and effort. Making something like this is probably an hour's worth of work, all said and done. You're not buying only the object, but the time.
@JoeHocking@ManuelaXibanya The etymology of "staff" in this context is from command staff in the armed forces. Someone who assists in making impactful decisions for your organization.
@gitarra@Komaniecki_R There is no standard, but there is a correct way: note head on the actual pitch, Roman numeral indicating the fret (if it isn't 12, in which case you can leave it out).
@mandlebrot890 @debarghya_das@ADGArrio What makes you think it's low quality research?
Likely overall, on average, Harvard will have better research. But one professor can create a lab, draw great students in from all over the country, and create stellar research almost anywhere.
