Couldn't agree more on the fact that your interests decide where you should end up. However, how are you supposed to know what you like until you've gone out and done it???
My advice, get as many internships as humanly possible. I really mean humanly possible; apply for them all! Try and get yourself into a department that does something that you really enjoy, get involved in their work and really take your successes & failures to heart.
Once you have established this use your masters degree to move yourself forward in that organization/role. The number of people I have heard of who have done highly specialized masters in CS before working and now cannot find work is quite frightening.
An even bigger plus is if your employer knows that you are passionate about your work you might end up at an EXTEMELY competitive university for masters rather than just a relatively competitive one.
As an undergraduate Computer Engineer who intends to major in AI I would be really interested in knowing if anyone knew whether the companies mentioned in this article (Google, Walmart etc...) actually do hire people with a specialization in AI? And if so how do u get recognized?? Or is it all just copied and pasted from researchers who work in all the Universities they mentioned?
I guess the root of my question is, by pursuing AI are you pushing yourself into becoming an academic for the rest of your life?
Hey thats easy.
Talk to your home university, apply to go on exchange to a USA university to do course work for 6 months or whatever. Get the USA university to sponsor your J-1. Then on your J-1 application apply for the two month extension at the end of your coursework and use this time to go do your internship.
How good is that, an exchange Uni and an internship on your resume in one hit!
Agreed, but i don't really think we need equatorial winds to describe what is going on here. Could it just not be assumed that the planet is spinning on it's axis so it isn't tidally locked thus the hottest point is always going to be marginally off high noon.
If it really is going around the sun once every 53 hours I think that that's more than enough explanation for the way the temperature stays above 1000 degrees on both sides, which is actually hotter than the poles. If there really were incredibly strong winds wouldn't they effect the poles just as much; if not more than the other side of the planet?
I agree it doesn't make sense AT ALL.
If you look at the Global Map of the temperature of the planet where it shows that the hottest point is not directly facing the sun. Wouldn't it make a great deal more sense to suggest that the planet is not tidally locked and is indeed spinning, thus the hottest area moves to the east?
If it was due to incredibly fast winds i don't think that there would be such a strong distribution of heat towards the "equator".
Wouldn't it be a lot simpler to say that the planet is most likely spinning and not tidally locked and due to the intense heat from the sun the area that has been exposed to the sun for the longest is simply the hottest. Thus the hottest part is always going to be slightly due to the east of high noon due to rotation.
If it was really due to "strong winds" as they are attempting to justify i feel the temperature would be a lot more erratic, especially around the poles of the planet where the winds ideally would be travelling to/from due to the difference in temperature and pressure.
In conclusion, tidally locked gas giant w/ massive winds?
Definitely Not

Good Luck
