  • I don’t know a lot about other fields but stat people are hired a lot by research institutions. A good statistician can reduce the number of experiments you need to do, being able to test a drug/treatment with 7 people instead of 100 means a lot. They save a lot of money.

    Also being able to make inference from past data, incomplete data, use correct math (there is always different ways to solve things) so they don’t make mistakes.

    And a lot of people with stat degree join either academia, or other fields that have actual problems and use their background to solve issues.



  • I’m not that knowledgeable about the events. But did he name the cult?

    If someone else named the cult, and someone else wrote the Bible. And the book did not exist in his time. Then even if he was a real person that wanted good in the world, he was never a part of the religion/cult that was started in his name, right?



  • Storing videos, and streaming them without latency is a huge problem. Specifically if you also have to process for different resolutions and such for different devices.

    Edit: I don’t know how true it is now, but in the past YouTube would have local servers and specific agreements with ISPs for higher bandwidth for them in many countries.




  • You expected version should always be more than what you’re today. Not because you’re bad but because you’ll just get better anyway. Learn to be satisfied in life with little things and little improvements, those will slowly make things better.

    Also I find that having little projects (in computer or real life) where you make things helps with mental health. When you build something, however minor, it gives you the feeling of accomplishment. And if you can focus on making something, solving those problems, then you are sufficiently distracted as well.
