Protoss, upgrade battle cruiser, follow Artanis.
A few colossus for anti small.
Tempests and archons for splash
Stack anti armor like immortal and tempest and upgrade anti big damage
Terran units: tanks and Thor.
Keep 40+ zealots at all times
Upgrade recursive self improvement, most wild card options like bigger unit size , upgrade units when offered bonus 10% damage.
Battlecruiser upgrade : slow, guard, barrier, everything defensive.
Stack spells so you can spam them when you hit lane 47
Never fuse units
Works pretty hands free, zealots never need to engage until Lane 47 or 48 when a screen full of zerglings ended the game for me.
Would love some forum where people discuss this more, maybe with experiments.
Game crashes when trying to fuse units
Congratulations what an amazing achievement!
Many people involved in optogenetics, it must have been hard to select 3.
This should be automatic now in any statistical analysis given ubiquity of coding agents.
Yes, imagine classical physics were taught by studying the original works from Newton.
It would never work!
Some of the best writers, such as Marcel Proust and James Joyce, might disagree with short sentences.
The analogy seems to be like learning classical music (like piano or violin) after as an adult.
You learn the basics like scales and chords to build and build to modern jazz.
But if you’re an adult, life is too short, just go straight to a few pieces you like. Get a simplified version and learn the bits you need from there from a teacher.
That’s not salary that’s research funds to hire students and start the lab.
Does the the (,1) conjecture paper in annnals of Math say 7 years between submission and acceptance? Insane
No it’s not. Chinese restaurant cuisine is not defined by home cuisine at all. They are almost orthogonal.
You go to a Chinese restaurant to eat something that cannot be made at home, almost by definition. The only exception might be breakfast food.
Italian restaurant cuisine today is judged by whether it tastes like the way their particular Italian grandma made it.
Asian restaurant cuisine is judged by partly by how different (technique, taste, looks) the dish is from what they can make from home.
It is better to be overworked than underworked
How is this different than telling people to do a PhD, then run your own research group as a professor, get tenure and get lifetime job security?
Or work in start up, get acquired, and chill after ?
Check Physics and Chemistry Nobel prize of last 5 years, Google was involved in half of them.
I think it technically means they have a permanent endowed position.
Most researchers in Switzerland are non-Swiss, and many institutes have English as language of business
Essentially a PhD thesis style grilling to replace the current text slop
It doesn’t matter honestly, 65k versus 80k after 42% tax on the extra 15k is about 800 euros a month. Not qualitatively different.
I found it the right granularity. He talks about USA, China, and Europe: within each have considerable diversity in culture, history, and identity.
He mentions Europe without more nuance for the same reason he mentions China without more nuance: he’s talking big picture.
At 9 figures I’m sure the founder can trickle down a few for everyone including employers after the sale.
Do you have a family or people you need to take care of? Life is more than sustaining your own existence.
You forgot to account for the 100+ employees. The liquidity event would have helped their families as well.
Can you imagine a singer who will continue singing even after getting 50 million ?
To some people, their careers are interesting in and of itself, beyond money.
This applies to many professions: scientists, CEOs, writers, painters.
Literature, music, art; they are all intertwined aren’t they? I find at their purest form they are striving for similar goals: pulling out from our collective unconscious a life affirming theme that can be viewed in a new perspective.
Are you suggesting science and innovation are distinct?
Scientific progress is largely driven by the “Steve Jobs” of sciences.
Only a tiny fraction of papers remain relevant. So that means the quality of the average paper doesn’t matter as much as the quality of the best paper.
I think a mix of the current system with more permanent researchers makes sense.
There is a lot of work in research that fits the permanent worker better than the fresh 22 year old. But having that fresh talent is really beneficial to science.
Your suggestion would have fewer fresh eyes to look at the problem. If the scientific enterprise were just about churning out widgets, then yes it’s better to have permanent staff.
But having a strong training pipeline for the globe is a huge plus for US prestige, and the top people are still offered jobs as faculty or industry within the country, so it still a net gain for USA. But it’s brutally competitive for the individual scientists
Literature is like classical music. One can argue Beethovens 9th symphony is one of the greatest pieces of music of all time, but that doesn’t mean we all have time to sit through 70 minutes a day listening to it.
I bet important people don’t even have time to sit and watch a full movie.
The meme of dude standing in corner while everybody else dances as he utters an elitist thought to himself explains many jazz musicians, especially the protagonist in whiplash
This is also the philosophy espoused by Taleb. You want that job that involves tinkering, playing, and an option to select winners.
