They have also removed a bottle of booze off my deliveroo order, so you all can have an extra for me. >:(

Congrats! What did you write your thesis on?
How people have been fucking up nature for 10k years lmao.
Save the Wooly Mammoth before it’s too late!
the columbian mammoth is the last of the mammoths to die out about 13kyears ago, very recent, by insular dwarfism in channel islands of CALIFORNIA. fun fact mammoths are more related asian elephants than african bush elephants/forest. ELEPHAS vs loxodon.

Too bad there won’t be anyone left alive to remember your hard work. But thanks, still.
I’ve unironically still got hope. I think we live in a really cool time.
I hope you’re an archaeologist and not a paleontologist.
Otherwise we got beef
I’m both.

Didn’t we likely play a significant role in the extinction of megafauna all over the world much sooner than that?
Amazing topic!
I look forward to the meme translation of your thesis
Seems like an easy subject. Just saying.
I’m more like people looking at people looking at dirt though. Once you go anthropology, it’s hard to go back.
I don’t mean to imply your job with writing your thesis on it is easy, the proof needed would be no easy task.
But it’s hard to flip through a history book and stop on any page, and not find something on the page that’s harmful to nature.
Proving that it’s harmful would be the part that’s hard. Finding the occurrences of harm is easy.

Das rite .
Congrats!!! You did it! That’s awesome!!
I tried anyway.
Hell yeah! What’s your research about?

Machine learning?
That would have been easier lol.
I mean I’m taking a class on machine learning and … well … on the one hand it’s supposed to be a “rigorous” theoretical class, and the project at least is going to actually be that because I get to choose the topic and I’m obviously gonna make it mathematically rigorous … but on the other hand, my professor keeps saying “ask the LLMs for more details about the derivations I’m teaching you” 😭😭😭😭😭. I guess he decided teaching students real analysis is hard and ChatGPT is easy. And the lecture notes have literally zero references so I’m completely on my own 😭😭😭😭😭
My environmental proxies have been a conundrum for machine learning (I’m pretty sure why, writing a grant on that), so I can sympathise. I have some tools for you, if you’d like for me to share. Dm me and I’ll send you a bunch of stuff when I’m less inebriated.
Was supposed to be DM lol
I love how you summed up at least 75% of science. I’m in this picture and… I have mixed feelings!
Just because I’m a pedantic little academic: if you know how your data is crap, you can make an extra shiny model that doesn’t give only crap outputs
Howling
Good luck I hope its well received and contains no em dashes.
Lmao there’s definitely some llm placeholder captions they’ll have to forgive me on.
Ah, in that case I hope you have your current degrees rescinded.
What do you mean, I use them all the time
Don’t you mean you use th— all the time?
This is a precursor to defending your thesis, right? I don’t mean to discourage, I’ve just been away from academia for a few too many years and my memory is getting rusty on the order of operations.
Regardless, it’s a massive milestone and I commend your commitment to humanity’s knowledge in the strongest possible terms.
In most places the defense is kind of just a formality. It’s an important part of the ritual and the process, it’s important to present your work, but nobody should be submitting unless they’re definitely going to pass the defense, or else their supervisor has really failed them
Whoa! Congrats!

Huge fucking congratulations! So does this mean we’re going to get more memes now, or fewer?
I’m so lost lol. Depends where the wind blows.
You’ll soon be free!
Pls release me
Hell yeah! Now go get blackout drunk
Working on it.
We should all support him!
Source: am drunk
I’m drunk now. Yay
Now get something (job, NGO, animal shelter, sports club…) to do to ease your transition from post-thesis hole to normality
Congrats! Best of luck on whatever the next step is.
My dearest Fossil! Congratulations! Super proud of you dude - that’s not a small feat. My M.Sc. damn near did me in.
Bruh, my MSc was no new data for this site which is a challenge (had to focus on methods), this nearly killed me lol.
should only take three years after this
Congrats!
oh, bravo
