Moving a heavy object is more work than moving a light box the same distance.
Assuming electrical resistance (load?) is equivalent to the weight of the box, then a circuit with more resistance is capable of more work than a circuit with less resistance.
The more current flows through a circuit, the more work is being done.
Yet current is varies inversely with resistance.
For example, an electrical filament will only get hot if it has some non-zero resistance.
If it has zero resistance then it will generate no heat, yet the current is high implying more work is being done.
Yet if the filament has high resistance, less current will flow and therefore the filament will not heat up and less work is being done.
I am a retard. Can any of you eggheads explain this apparent paradox in a way I terms I might be able to understand?
Otherwise where did the flu go? The new variant is already evading vaccines, much like the seasonal flu evades old vaccines. Both are IAVs which make them pretty much impossible to eradicate.
So if it is the new flu, lets treat it like the flu. Stop the bullshit.
I am the product of a chain of cause and effect stretching back to the beginning of the universe. At least, as far as we are aware. But most likely, I am the direct product of something that stands outside time and causality themselves. Something infinite and eternal. All the people who existed before me felt something like what I am feeling now, and ascribed it to an entity they called "god". They projected their personhood onto it. But despite their juvenile error, what they felt is nonetheless real, if inaccessible to inductive empirical reasoning. What most people today understand to be science. There is nothing mystical about the infinite and eternal. Except that it cannot be understood in terms of limits or quantities. The language or units local only to our insular pocket world. If science is the end-all-be-all, and you accept nothing beyond it, then naturally something like this is inadmissible. But the infinite is just there, waiting for you when you die.
>"Popular lectures are the easiest to listen to, but you must excuse me when I say that they are necessarily both superficial and misleading, since they have to be graded to the comprehension of an ignorant audience. Popular lecturers are in their nature parasitic. They exploit for fame or cash the work which has been done by their indigent and unknown brethren. One smallest new fact obtained in the laboratory, one brick built into the temple of science, far outweighs any second-hand exposition which passes an idle hour, but can leave no useful result behind it. I put forward this obvious reflection, not out of any desire to disparage popular lecturer in particular, but that you may not lose your sense of proportion and mistake the acolyte for the high priest."
Was he right?
I'm in my final year of my statistics undergrad and am anxious about graduating. I've been applying to various junior data analyst/intern positions but no one is interested in even interviewing me. Many of my peers in school compete in hackathons and code personal projects and I worry that I can't stand out to prospective employers. I've never put in more than minimum effort in school. I don't have it in me to go to grad school.
My backup plan is marine trades, but I will keep trying for stat-related jobs in the meantime. I can code in R and have heard that this is a highly sought after skill in the job market.
Does anyone have advice for an underachieving undergrad trying to break into commercial work?
