Lmfao yeah sure, “down for maintenance” in the middle of the workday on a Monday sounds like truly excellent zero-downtime upgrade and maintenance planning, completelyyyyyy unrelated to the hilariously huge AWS outage today.

I was clearing this folder to which telegram desktop saves files. I got massively distracted re-living and re-learning wtf I was doing here

Apparently I was deriving the weibull distribution from the hazard and survival functions.

Statistical Theory was definitely one of the classes of all time.

Ah yes, another demonstration of the fragility of our entire global infrastructure, dependent on only a few companies not shitting the bed.

I wonder if people in congress could ever get their head out of their asses to make some laws to strengthen technical infrastructure. That would be nice.

Got this random spam message this morning.

To say this sounds suspicious is one of the biggest euphemisms in a while. I’m thinking exploitive stuff, abuse of minors, etcetera.

This is in the California Hilton hotel I’m staying in lmao.

How does this happen? To a Hilton of all places!

This sign is posted in here twice. Incredible.

This was very thoroughly a mistake, future me is very disappointed in past me for deciding to eat all of this.

Having the largest chuckle seeing my furry avatar popping up in every comment I make on this manuscript we're submitting to a journal.

I last did this technical writing when seeking my PhD. Now that I have my PhD, I feel so freely empowered to be furry trash in professional circles and contexts xD

for the love of fucking christ and all that is holy. Duolingo please stop giving me vocab “practice” that are the simplest, most brain dead words.

I am level 23 in my Russian practice right now, these words are shown at level 1-2.

Wasting my fucking time.

Apple intelligence?????? With this level of limited functionality? Ты что пиздец глупый???

Seriously the fucking hottest thing I’ve ever eaten. Habanero salsa from Javier’s in Las Vegas.

It absolutely MESSED UP our entire table with just a small dollop.

10000/10 would totally do again, my life is substantially improved by this salsa

Truly the easiest $40.67 I’ve ever received. All for putting my name into a form for a class action suit. I guess I’ll treat myself this weekend.

Considering the rest of this week too, I think it’s extremely deserved anyway.

this meme takes on a completely new and much more hilarious meaning when I'm reading about overly hyped neural networks that can still only provide 20-30% predictive accuracy.

In other words, the meme well visualizes how poorly goes the use of AI and ML in medicine.

Completely unrelated note, this is incredibly suspicious.

i swear i should get a picture framed on my wall of the Dunning Kruger effect (with a generalized visualization shown below!).

Probably one of the most relevant things I've encountered countless times in my general career lol.
March 25, 2025 at 2:55 AM
This is in the preface of a statistics text book I'm flipping through.

Gave me quite a chuckle since the book is still 352 pages long xD

what in the world is this second question???

everyone with any sort of science related degree has at minimum 2 years, what kind of information are you looking for with this question?

Separate from actual experience, should I cumulatively add up years for each degree I have?
It'd 15 years if so lol
March 13, 2025 at 7:42 PM
imagine spending 2 years getting a masters to just settle for a $19/hour job.
what the fuck is this job market.
Might as well go work at walmart or something.

I’m spending my peak brain computing and critical thinking hours on clearly the most important questions.

@kizma.bsky.social you got me doing a big think!
