Little know fact: The D in PhD is for “death”.

Fun fact, the Mandelbrot set is a 2-dimensional set (because it’s defined in the complex plane). However, its boundary line is a fractal, which can be understood as having a non-integer dimension (i.e., between 1, the topological dimension of a line, and 2, the dimension of a plane). There are multiple ways to define fractal dimensions such as the Hausdorff dimension. For example, the Sierpinski triangle has a Hausdorff dimension of 1.58. But the Mandelbrot set is special here, too, as it seems to have a Hausdorff dimension of 2, meaning that its boundary is so curly that it fills “a plane’s worth of space” despite its line-like topology.

All about that sample size.

Mine actually drinks from his bowl just fine, which makes it even funnier that he goes for the sink puddles like it’s some gourmet shit.

I swear I’m fun at parties.

He’s a shelter cat with some baggage, and the training is ongoing.

The Brave Little Toaster is still giving me the feels decades later.

Many people I know get into it because of their idealism and desire to change the academic system for the better. They invest into this career, year after year, because it’s always one more step until they can finally use their influence to change the system from the inside.

Reading this from a Fairphone 3 that received a new battery and a new headphone jack three weeks ago (and which were both extremely easy to install).

To be fair, political scientists probably don’t know where 95% of the politics is hidden either.

We think ours is a Snack Master Potato mix.

That wasn’t really Freud’s achievement though. There are many early psychologists who deserve credit for this much more than him, such as William James, Gustav Fechner, Wilhelm Wundt, Hermann Ebbinghaus, or (later) B. F. Skinner.

Freud’s work was mostly in the medical tradition, developed independently from the emerging psychological science of that time, and that’s where his theories still have the largest impact.

R is great for visualizations and also has some neat tools for building websites, interactive figures/maps, web apps, and stuff like that. So a lot of sculpting potential in R, if she manages to get into it far enough.

“I bet you’re wondering how I ended up here.”

What’s lpe?

Yes.

I actually do use beamer for most presentations, but all universities I’ve worked at only ever provided templates for PowerPoint. My solution to this has been to just write a .sty file that makes it look similar (and leaves out the over-designed garbage that the templates tend to contain).

Edit: I’ve tried reveal, too. Didn’t hate it, but it makes some things ridiculously difficult (e.g., handouts or “overlay-style” animations).

No way it’s worse in this regard. LaTeX places figures and tables in floating environments, which are fairly “smart” most of the time. Figure placement in MS is just painful by comparison.

From a legal standpoint, the description (share DRM-free games with your friends) is also questionable as it’s currently worded. Copyright still applies to games that don’t use DRM. For OP, it might be a good idea to ask a lawyer to look this over and write a proper legal disclaimer, so they don’t end up being liable for copyright infringement.
