I work on additive manufacturing technologies.

  1. This is an internet masterpiece
  2. No need to apologize! It was totally rational to assume that these two events were unrelated. It is a wild sad story and we'll likely learn about the motive over the coming weeks. This story hit me particularly hard as I live about a 3 minute walk from the victim's house in the Brookline area.
  3. Could this be related to the Brown shooting?
  4. Wow -- That's very rapid weight loss. Congratulations.
  5. nincompoops... learned a new word today
  6. We have some great work digitizing touch and grasp: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-019-1234-z
  7. "...man this is gonna crash hard when reality sets in."

    Given the amount of money invested and the expectations, the crash will be of cataclysmic proportions

  8. Send them to BOS and we're talking
  9. Sorry for your loss.
  10. Maybe you can retro a fan into your current fridge. Nice little project!
  11. You should buy a fridge with a fan in the cooling chamber. My Samsung fridge has a nice fan and associated ducting to circulate air and keep temperatures ~uniform.
  12. ~$50k at MIT. Barely livable but livable. You can also complement this stipend with internships and other opportunities.
  13. Different perspective... As an NSF grad student I didn't feel underpaid -- I felt extremely lucky that I got to do cutting-edge research while being paid a low but decent, livable salary. Of course, I could have made more money going into industry -- but at least we have a choice with institutions like the NSF willing to support risky projects that move humanity forward.
  14. the pervasiveness of LLMs looks to really erode the critical thinking of entire future generations

    Exactly the threat of AI. With regards to jobs, we'll have a shock but we will adapt as with any other wave of automation.

  15. Wasn’t the Gulf War approved by Congress abd formally declared?
  16. Nice to see that this project came from the University of Puerto Rico! The university has a cluster of activity in astronomy thanks to the legacy of the Arecibo telescope.
  17. Research funded by the NIH which our government is actively gutting
  18. 230 lbs in 20 months -- that's amazing. Congrats.
