2023.05.30 16:33 CodBig2393 Are my health issues possible Long Covid?

Female, 37, 150lb. I've been asking so many questions here months ago. My desperation was such and no answers for what I feel/have. On one of my last visits to an ENT she did a very extensive interview and asked me about covid and when did I got it. Well, I thought that I only had covid on September 2021. Nope, I had covid again on January 2022 and 3 days before that I had my moderna booster shoot. My first vaccine was J&J.
I haven't been the same since then. My symptoms run from neurological, menstrual cycle problems, nervous system, horrible anxiety and depression, heart symptoms including heart attack like chest pain and pressure. The only doctor that is trying to figure me out is her and I appreciate so much. My cardiologist suspects Coronary Microvascular Disease or vasospasm. I've been reading post here where doctors talk about Long Covid and I would love to read any recommendations for me, what can my next step be and what doctor should I vist. Are my symptoms similar to those of a long covid patient? I was a very healthy woman, just overweight but not obese.
Now I even have sleep problems and have to sleep with a Cpap machine.
I pushed for a referral for a Long covid clinic and the appointment is in October. I've been feeling alone and many doctors just didn't believe me. They started to take me seriously when they saw that I have NO HISTORY of abusing the Healthcare system and I'm not interested in any crazy sedative drugs. I just want my body to feel normal again. There's not a day that I feel normal at all.

2023.05.30 16:15 AlexanderBrozov Getting Internships in the 2023-2024 cycle - Your tips and recommendations

Hello folks! In 2022, I was on an internship hunt, where I successfully got an internship offer for a Fortune 50 company as an SWE for that summer as an international student. Since then, I have been through a lot of difficulties where I could not continue my studies in the US until this 2023 Fall.
It is June 2023, and I am inspired to get back to studies and land two internships for the next 2023-2024 cycle(Winter and Summer). However, I want to start preparing and applying your best practices and methods, so I have questions like:
  1. Where and how do you apply for internships? Is LinkedIn the most preferred way nowadays? Or is there a better alternative to see all internships and automatically apply?
  2. Should I use career services at my uni? Are they even useful? Or Handshake?
  3. How should I prepare for interviews? LeetCoding any medium/hard problems? Or are there any specific set of problems I should prepare for? Any links appreciated
  4. Are referrals still relevant? Where do I find them? I have never utilized one.
  5. How should I prepare my resume? LinkedIn? GitHub?
  6. Any overall tips for applying to internships? I appreciate any single comment.
If any people here feel my energy for the upcoming year with enthusiasm regarding internships, please reach out to me! Let's prepare and grow together!

2023.05.30 16:13 fuzziekittens A set of poems that have helped with my grief.

Growing up so disconnected from my emotions, I frequently need pieces of media to help me through my grief. I love spoken word poetry and I wanted to share two poems by Andrea Gibson. While they are both called The Call, they are very different from each other and I have related to both in different stages of my healing. I hope they help you.

THE CALL, OPTION 1
 
I pay seventeen dollars online to track down the phone number
of the man who sexually assaulted me, and my friend asks, "What
do you plan to say?"
 
I'll tell him I know he lost
all his money gambling
and was forced
 
to sell the building
where he did what he did.
I'll tell him karma is a hell
 
of a feminist.
I'll tell him my silence
was his worst bet.
 
I'll tell him I'm watching
him through the bullet hole
he left in my childhood,
 
and if he comes within
two hundred miles
of a child's trust, my body
 
will start bleeding his name
all over Main Street in his middle-
of-somewhere town.
 
I'll tell him
he's the middle of nowhere:
a man with no stop
 
lights, the kind of place kids grow up
desperate to escape. I'll tell him
as soon as I got out,
 
I imagined him sanding off
his fingerprints, the guilt
filing him down to half his size.
 
When I met him,
he was the biggest man
in town, had set records
 
in the deadlift, was as old
as my father. I weighed
ninety-six pounds, was still
 
spending sleepovers practicing
how to kiss. I'll tell him how big
I am now. So big
 
I could make his address
the title of my next book,
and yes, I think he asked for it.
 
Asked me to play hangman
with his name on the local news,
asked me to spray paint ME TOO
 
across his pickup truck
and say, I dare you
to compare property damage
 
with someone you made property.
With someone whose puberty
you mutilated.
 
I'll say, Trauma
is a pretty word for how to die
every day of the year,
 
but my voice is alive
and right now it is the only justice
system I trust
 
to ensure men like you
understand the law
of gravity, understand
 
you will always be held down
by what you held down.
There is no such thing as rising
 
from someone else's ashes.
No man's spirit escapes the hell
he denies putting a child through,
 
which is to say, I am the only one
out of the two of us who survived
you, and I survived you
 
so beautifully. Even on my worst days,
my scars are the backroads
where kids sneak out their windows
 
and drive through the night
to hear poetry. I am so much
of who I dreamed I'd be
 
when I grew up, and what
does the boy you once were
think of the man you became?
 
A man running
from his own name.
A man who must wake
 
fifty times a night, terrified
the truth is somewhere breaking
from its chains and racing
 
for the world's ear.
When the truth gets there, will you try
to tell your friends I wanted it?
 
Will you try to tell your wife
how old of a soul I was?
At thirteen? At thirteen,
 
I had the youngest soul
in the universe.
I was so brand new
 
I thought reincarnation
was a flower I would wear
on my wrist
 
if someday someone asked me
to the ninth-grade dance.
I'd stand in my full-length mirror
 
and practice not blushing
when a slow song came on.
That's how old I was.
 
That's the kind of man you were.
The kind of man who makes children
grow up and search
 
for your phone number,
our bodies riddled with the wish
that all the records will say:
 
No one by that name exists.
 
 
 
THE CALL, OPTION 2
 
I pay seventeen dollars online to track down the phone number of the man who sexually
assaulted me, and my friend asks, "What do you plan to say?"
 
There is a world in which you did not touch me.
A world in which you thought about touching me
and were so nightmared by your own mind
you climbed inside your skull and bloodied your knees
 
crawling across the tundra of your history,
turning over every rock to chase out every worm
that might trick you into believing anything
could be cut in half and keep living.
 
There is a world in which you saw
how easily you could become an ax
splitting the personalities of children,
so swore your fingerprints
 
would be like the rings of trees, that your growth
could be counted on. In this world you have
groomed no one, and I am made of flyaways-
gleefully unclipped, wholly uncombed through,
 
braiding myself around a song, certain
I've invented dancing. Look at me
still calling you a hero. You built my trust
and never became the quake of earth
 
that shattered my foundation. Look at you
mothering your own nature, calling yourself home
at the first sign of dark. In this world you might
still be poor but not where it counts.
 
You might have still lost all your money,
but look at what you saved: Me
and Her and Her and Her and Her and Her
and the child you once were-how proud
 
he is to see who he's become. In this world
you still have secrets, but they are like my father's
secrets. The ones he doesn't know I know.
The ones my grandma told me: how he stayed
 
home nearly every weekend of high school
to keep my grandfather's drunken fist from the glass
of her jaw, how good my father was at pretending
he didn't love the movies, hadn't saved
 
all summer to buy a secondhand suit
for his first school dance. There is a world
in which you, too, only lie to save someone's life,
a world where you still live a stone's throw
 
from Canada but walk the river's shore never plotting
how you'd swim to freedom, never practicing
the backstroke of denial, never hoping I drowned
the letters you wrote me when I was graduating
 
eighth grade and you were forty and marrying
someone you said would never be your type.
The first time I called, your wife answered
the phone. I hung up, not strong enough
 
to be like you to throw a brick through
a woman's chest and have no doubts about it
being the right move, but there is a world
in which the truth is as soft as the pillow
 
that holds your wife's head when she dreams
about the day you met. In this world you wake up
before she does, make her coffee, read her horoscope
and forget to read your own. Where you stand behind her
 
when she looks in the mirror, tell her she's grown
more gorgeous every one of her sixty-seven years,
how you feel like the richest man in town
with your hands in the silver
 
of her hair. In this world I celebrate the news
of you having a daughter, a granddaughter, a niece.
In this world I don't panic when I see a pink tricycle
in your neighbor's driveway
 
as I'm driving to meet friends at the riverfront,
my hometown still a home you never haunted.
I roll the window down, holler your name
into the autumn air. You look up
 
from raking a pile of golden leaves, smile
and wave back to me. Can you see it?
I know you can. Everyone can
see who they were supposed to be.
 
It's the readiest grief in the world.

2023.05.30 16:13 SufficientPiglet4124 dealing with asshole parents…

I’m just gonna start this off from when I was 16. So eventually, I got my first job blah blah blah everything’s going good and I’m just going to school and working a lot. So I worked for a whole year saving my money, but thats until summer of 2022 last year. I’m 18 now and still in school I’m a senior so I’m finishing now but I have plans to get my life together and need the money!!! My parents asked me to borrow money from me that summer, and mind you they are asking for $1100 from a teen finishing school!! I was hesitant at first and I was explaining about my situation and how I will need money soon for my plans and life , BUT I was going to say yes still because they’re still my parents. My mother THEN started bringing up about how I spend my money and how much money I take out OF MY OWN ACCOUNT (when she’s the fucking one asking for money) because she’s on my bank account since I’m under 18!! So fast forward a year later now current time May 2023, they still haven’t paid me after I have said things respectfully many times and it’s been a year. Now I need the money more then ever because I’m about to finish school and plus my job I had for 2 whole years went out of business about 2 months ago. I’ve worked my ass off at that job especially for being in school too. Now because it went out of business in my moms own words she says, “get off your ass stop smoking weed and get a new job”. AS IF I DIDNT JUST FRESHLY TURN 18 AND STILL FINISHING UP HIGH SCHOOL. Then today I walk back home from school early because it was a SENIOR SKIP DAY and I didn’t know so I came home early. My dad was home so I explained to my dad it was a cut day and he still didn’t seem to like that and you could tell he was visually mad and sighing. I asked why he’s mad at me, and he asked me if I found another job….I walk away and he starts talking under his breathe and I let him know I heard him. Also, my whole plan is to go to trade school for welding and I have other plans like buy a car etc.shit I need to get done. I’m just so lost and fucking tired of their bullshit when I try my best and have a plan. There’s way more shit they pull. It makes me not wanna be around them and starting to despise almost…. I need advice please

2023.05.30 16:12 Raoshard Currently >1 YoE in .NET Desktop Development, should I transition to Web or Mobile?

I had an internship last summer at Accenture (Europe), and following the interviews I got the position for a .NET Developer working on enterprise Desktop software. Now while it's certainly better than construction work, there are days where I'd rather shovel cement than work on the project I'm assigned to. Without going into too much detail as to why, I'm jumping on the first opportunity to escape this project since my contract ends in a few months. Hopefully I can transition to part-time work until then, during which I'm able to self-teach either web or mobile technologies.
I'm thankful for the role I got, but I feel like, if I have the opportunity, I should switch to what I enjoy more.
So, the choice is either Web/Cloud or Mobile Development. I've talked to a lead at the Web/Cloud department and he said that they mainly work with Angular and NGRX, as opposed to the more popular React. I've yet to talk to the Mobile lead, but I would assume since there's more projects there that it's gonna be a 50/50 split between iOS and Android, so Swift/C and Java/Kotlin respectively if I'm not mistaken.
I haven't really seen what either a webdev or a mobile dev does on a day to day basis, so I figured I would ask here, hopefully someone more experienced would be able to answer at least one of my questions:

My goal is to get some experience working for this company before I dip my toes into working as a contractor for foreign companies, a thing which a few friends around here are doing and they're earning 5x what I make with half the stress and hours.
Any advice would be really appreciated!

2023.05.30 16:07 TheBlackUnicorn Everything that went wrong in my four years of owning a Tesla Model S

Hi everyone! I posted earlier about my decision to buy a Toyota Tacoma to replace my S (I have not traded the S in, I got the Tacoma yesterday and I'm currently waiting on repairs from Tesla before I sell the S).
I suggested in the comment thread that I'd do a post about EVERYTHING that went wrong with that car. So let's buckle up because here we go.
I bought the car CPO from Tesla in June of 2019, it is a 2016 75D/"Standard Range" S. The car is a relatively rare build because Tesla upgraded to Autopilot 2 hardware in October of '16 and removed the free unlimited supercharging perk in January of '17 (or roughly around that time). My car came down the line in November of '16 so it's one of very few Ses that has both these features. The first time I took it into the Service Center I was told by a technician (who does not drive a Tesla as his personal vehicle) that this particular run of Ses was one of the best batch he'd ever seen. Oh boy let's see how great this batch is.

Heated steering wheel

The first thing that went wrong with the car was actually broken from the time I bought it, but I didn't notice for a few months because it was the heated steering wheel. Winter '19/'20 set in and I realized the steering wheel wasn't warming up. I took it in for warranty repair and they found it was simply unplugged, this was free.

Trunk latch

In the summer of 2020, amid the COVID lockdowns, one day the trunk failed to latch and was stuck open. I tried pulling the emergency release but that did nothing. I scheduled a mobile appointment (which I will give Tesla credit for, very few car companies make housecalls), and the technician was also unable to get the trunk to latch. So I scheduled a service center appointment and had to drive with the trunk open for a couple weeks, this made an annoying beeping noise and prevented me from using ANY cruise control, let alone "Autopilot" (or "Full-Self Driving", I actually got grandfathered into the offer to upgrade from EAP to FSD for $3000 so I pulled the trigger on that, I have not requested the FSD Beta because it looks like a death machine to me).
Amazingly during my drive to the service center the trunk magically fixed itself. I wasn't about to turn around and go home since I figured the part could still be faulty, so I asked them to look at it anyway. Since they didn't see anything wrong they charged me over $500 to replace the components. This was my first repair bill.

First collision repair

A couple months later I was rear-ended by a teenager and she did a bunch of damage to the back of the car, this was one of my most seamless issues with the car, I took it to a local collision repair shop and they had it back to me within 3 days, all of these costs were paid by insurance.

MCU2 Upgrade

At some point I took the car in for them to replace the MCU (the 17" touchscreen) with the newer one so I could get Netflix and YouTube on my center screen. This was an optional service center visit, though the original MCU was REALLY starting to chug on newer Tesla software. The replacement cost $1600 and they did not put in a new AM/FM radio (that would have been an additional $500 and I don't listen to the radio much anyway). I was actually kind of happy that I could have the option to upgrade this tech, but if MCU2 winds up being as sluggish as MCU1 was when it was just 4-5 years old this seems like an extra non-optional cost.

12V Battery Replacement

In the summer of 2021 I got the error "12V BATTERY LOW SCHEDULE SERVICE NOW". That seemed really urgent, so I went on YouTube and searched for this error and found out that James May got the same issue. TL;DW the 12V system is powered primarily by a DC-to-DC converter from the main battery, but when the main battery disconnects there's a small 12V (like one you'd use in a motorcycle) that is needed to power on the actuators that connect the main battery. If the 12V goes flat the car is bricked and, because the 12V is under the frunk and the frunk is electronically actuated, the only way to get to the 12V to trickle charge it is to partially dismantle the car.
In fact, I was lucky to get a warning at all some Teslas have had this happen with no warning and in fact it was a software update that even added the warning. And in fact a lot of early Teslas failed within a year because for some reason they charge and discharge the 12V like mad. I hope they've improved this since this blog post, but anyway this is a serious design defect.
Tesla did the right thing here and got me into service the next day AND I got the car back within 90 minutes. This is the fastest turnaround time I've ever seen from them, however I'm fairly certain that if my car was no longer under warranty (meaning they would not be responsible for paying to tow it to the service center) I would not have gotten such white glove treatment.

Suspension issue

In 2022 I read the book Ludicrous: The Unvarnished Story of Tesla Motors by Ed Niedermeyer. From this book I learned about whompy wheels and learned a rumor that many Teslas were built with cheap aluminum suspensions that tend to fail. China forced Tesla to do a recall on cars built in the US and exported to China.
I frantically drove to my local tire shop and asked them to look at the suspension, they reported that it looked to be in good condition but that there was a leak in the hydraulic fluid that Tesla should repair under warranty. I took the car to Tesla and they had it for SIX DAYS during which I had to rely on their Uber vouchers (Tesla only recently started doing loaners in my area, it might be because I live in a very obscure remote place called New York City /s). They reported to me that nothing was wrong with the suspension and returned the car, completely filthy since they'd left it parked under a tree.

Windshield replacement

In late 2022 I decided to save some money by replacing my wiper blades myself. While the blade arms were out one of the springs came loose and smashed into the windshield. It took me about a week to get the wiper back on, I tried every tool in my toolbox and eventually just took it to the tire shop where they put in a vice and got it to reconnect. They did this for free. Over the winter of '22/'23 however the damage to the windshield escalated into a crack. This is mostly my own stupid fault, I probably could have prevented this crack from growing with a cheapo Amazon glass repair kit, but none of the other cars I've ever driven have had something this nuts happen.
I took the car to a local glass repair shop and the owner told me I needed a full new windshield. He called Tesla to confirm the part number and order it, they did not pick up the phone. I was out of the country for about a month so I left this to pick up when I returned. I just went to SafeLite since I assumed they had more staff to pester Tesla to send them the windshield. Dropped off my car, they called me and said they had to wait a couple weeks for the windshield to ship. About a week later I dropped off the car AGAIN and they replaced the windshield.
This cost me another $500 out of pocket and the rest (about $700) was covered by insurance.

Door replacement collision repair

On March 7th 2023 a kid jumped a stop sign and crashed into my driver's side door, he put a huge dent in it and the door handle got stuck in the presenting position. Because he was not the policyholder* his insurance could not establish that he had permission to drive the vehicle and said they would not pay for the repair, so I again had to go through my insurance meaning I couldn't get a loaner.
It took Tesla TWO WEEKS to ship a new door to the only local Tesla-certified collision repair center in my area (this was about a 30 minute drive and I had to Uber both ways since there was no nearby public transit). When I got the car back there was an obnoxious amount of wind noise, I found they had misaligned the new window with the weather stripping. I brought the car back to them and they tooled around enough to get the wind noise down to a lower level, but it is still not gone. I did find I could jam some paper into the weather stripping and shim it up to prevent a little bit of noise.
This was a $500 out of pocket cost (which I may get back through insurance arbitration) and the cost to the insurance was a whopping $4700!

The HVAC filter, radars, and AC

Now we come to the straw that broke the camel's back. I noticed in the manual recently that my car is due for a replacement of the HVAC filter. They're fairly cheap on Amazon, so I figured I'd try doing it myself again. My wife talked me out of this due to what happened with the wiper blades. Additionally the HVAC system has a desicant bag that needs to be replaced periodically (like one of those sillica gel packets), and that requires a special machine.
So I scheduled a service center visit, they informed me my car was also eligible for a free upgrade to the autopilot cameras. I dropped off the car and for the first time in FOUR YEARS they gave me a loaner, a lease-return Model Y that presumably they couldn't find a buyer for (this car was a complete shitbox but that's a whole other story).
They said they would take FIVE DAYS to do this quick 30 minute job of replacing the HVAC filters. I also tried phoning them to ask if they could take a look at the wind noise from the previous repair, there was a message on the phone that told me I need to do all communication with them through the app. I messaged in the app, they did not respond.
Amazingly I got the car back after just FOUR days, but I was informed they did not look at the wind noise because it wasn't on the original list of things, and I would need to book ANOTHER appointment and wait ANOTHER two weeks for that. Replacing a $30 HVAC filter and a dessicant bag cost me a whopping $460!
After I got the car back, however, I realized that they did not merely "upgrade" the Autopilot cameras. They removed the Autopilot radar. I know they did it because now my follow distance bottoms out at 2 and I now have an 85mi/hr Autosteer speed limit. By the way, unlike the 3 and Y the Autopilot follow distance control in the S is a physical click-knob. So I can click it to 7,6,5,4,3,2 and 2. Like they replaced the bottom position with a second "2".
BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!
The HVAC is now blowing hot air. Every time I turn on the AC the car blasts me in the face with hot air and the compressor goes nuts. I assume this means the coolant is low (since it seems to have some ability to cool but is struggling a LOT).
So that's the end of our story. That's everything that's happened to this car so far. And where are we now? I have an appointment with service to fix the remaining problems and YESTERDAY I bought a 2020 Toyota Tacoma which GET THIS has a radar adaptive cruise control! No fancy "Autopilot" or "Autosteer", but it has lane departure warning which is enough to keep me awake on a long nighttime drive.
The biggest open secret about "Autopilot" and "FSD" is that they're mostly off-the-shelf components. Rather than building a self-driving car what Tesla actually did was take standard driver-assistance cruise control features and mash them together pretending they're something magical.
*This was a frankly ridiculous claim on the part of his insurance since his mother was the policyholder and the police report documents that she was sitting in the passenger's seat at the time of the collision. So I guess their position is that she was in the process of being kidnapped.
If you ever get into a crash like this make sure to take out your phone, take a video, and say "Do you have his/her permission to drive this vehicle?" If they say no just turn to the police and say it's a stolen vehicle and it needs to be impounded.

As the title says, i tried to make contact with my Biological father and i'm genuinely hurt.
A little Background. My mother and bio father dated for a few years, then my mother became pregnant with me. from what i was told by my mother is he "Packed his bags in the middle of the night and left" halfway through her pregnancy with me. Now my Bio dad was 31 at the time with a 10 year old son of his own. He left and wanted nothing to do with my mom and made it very clear with threats, etc. . Fast forward to last Summer (2022) my mother tells me that i have a brother (Via my father) and his name, so i went looking on Facebook of course, and found my 1/2 brother. he lives in a different state but we were able to meet up locally as he was in town to visit FAMILY (Which is also mine, i've just never met them (My fathers mother, brother and sister) me and my brother sat at a diner and talked for hours and laughed at the shocking resemblance to each other. I was able to find out that my Bio dad was a real POS and that i was better off without him in my life. (I was VERY fortunate to have a step dad that raised me as his own and i didnt even know he wasn't my real father until i was 15ish.) so i've held off contacting my bio dad for 15 years.
My Mother told me that both his mother and sister would spy on her to see if she was lying about being pregnant. and also sent him, and his mother baby pictures of me..
But i still decided to reach out to my bio dad.. and i think this is where the most hurt came from (i have physical photos of him and my other siblings as well as with my mom from the time, so i knew it was him and had a little ground to stand on.)
His response: "I have no idea who you are, yes i dated your mom but after we broke up i left town and didn't keep in touch" even though his own mother lived 10 minutes away...
He made it very clear that he did not want to try to get to know me or at least show an inclination of any care at all. Denied being my father at all.
I've been dwelling on this so much over the past 6 months its starting to affect my mental health... and don't really know where to go from here.. i did a 23+me and me and my 1/2 brother match 23.6% DNA so that proves that he is my bio dad. just shows no interest.... my brother doesn't really talk to much of the family except for holidays..
Funny thing is, i do landscaping on the side, and have actually worked on my grandmothers property before knowing it was her! ( and yes i did a great job lol) so i could just go to her house and confront her, but feel that is super childish...
maybe what I'm looking for is childish and should just let it go?
what should i do? reach out to the family? Let it go and try to forget about it?
at this point, i wish i had never went looking... so as you can tell, i have resorted to asking the great people of Reddit to help me better understand this shit show.

2023.05.30 15:48 PandaBearMom4Life Consolidation Confusion

Please Help! I was told to consolidate my private loans so that I could get the highest count on all of my loans. So I had Navient and Mohela loans. I was told that I did not need to consolidate my Mohela loans because they were already direct loans. I consolidated my Navient loans before 10/31/22 and the good news is they were totally forgiven by 12/2022 but the highest count was not applied to my Mohela loans. Every time I contact Mohela I get a different answer. Any advice would be appreciated!

2023.05.30 15:42 bbcrazy8 School nurse

Hello! A little background, I graduated nursing school in 2021. Started in the NICU after I graduated as an RN applicant, but I was pregnant and once my son was born, I couldn’t bring myself to go back, especially when I quickly realized the hospital life wasn’t working for my family. Once I passed nclex, I accepted a job at CVS as a contractor doing Covid testing in January 2022. That contracted ended in March 2022. I decided to stay home with my boys. Fast forward to March of this year, I got a job working in an adolescent clinic and I love it so much! But, my sons school is hiring a school nurse and it has been my dream to work as a school nurse, especially where my kids go to school. I have an interview on Friday with them and I need all the tips and tricks to have a successful interview. This job would be perfect family wise so my husband and I don’t need to stress about childcare during spring break, Christmas, summers etc. thank you!

2023.05.30 15:38 Le_Grand_Heros I calculated the odds of clearing JEE advanced from blind guesses

A majority voted for me to calculate the odds of clearing JEE advanced on the basis of pure blind guesses in this poll, so I did. I did get detailed data with precise chances of scoring every possible score as I did for JEE mains in this post but I'll post that data here only if you guys ask for it.
Assumptions made while calculating the odds:
  1. You attempt all questions
  2. You do no elimination or stuff and the guess is actually a blind guess
  3. All multiple correct questions have 3 correct options (really no way to generalize for those without an assumption)
  4. The numerical (decimal) answer type questions have answers from 0.00 to 1000.00 with an answer range of 2 answers correct (like 54.55-54.56)
  5. The paper follows JEE advanced 2022 pattern

Here are the odds:

Odds of scoring: 0 or more: 8.159790860679522% 55 (cut off) or more: 0.00023027182328344212% 100 or more: 6.974577385816137e-11% 180 or more: 1.252910696101312e-29% perfect 360: 0% (literally so low that Python just answered with 0)
Odds of clearing individual subject cut-off (5 marks): 9.613853402102269% Odds of clearing all 3 subject cut-offs: 0.08885717184743294%
If you want data with marks vs probability for every possible score, lemme know and I'll create a pastebin link and add it here

2023.05.30 15:33 jessica7252 Engine Issues, honest service center?

I have a 2016 Kia Sorento with the manufacturer defective engine issues. I had the knock sensor update done in 2022. In January 2023 it once again went into limp mode and left me on the side of the road. Local service center said it needed a compression test (this is the next step to proving it needs a replacement engine under the lifetime warranty in these models) but they wanted to charge $300 out of pocket. I spoke to another Kia service center and they don’t charge for compression testing as it’s directly related to the known issues covered under this lifetime warranty. I then opened a case with Kia Corp America and the agent said because each dealership/service center is independently owned they can differ in their charges but she confirmed there are centers that do not charge for compression testing related to the recall. When I confronted my local service center about this I was called a liar and also told the second opinion center AND corporate are liars too. So here we are in nearly June and I still can’t find a service center who will take my car (they’re all booked or just don’t even answer the phone). I’ve bought an old Honda to get me by and honestly it drives better than the Kia anyway. But I can’t leave this Kia to die in my drive way a slow death. The code it was giving is a misfire on the third cylinder. Is there anything I can do to get it drivable again so I can potentially look for service centers outside of my area that can take it without paying a ton in towing fees? And I know this is a reach but is anyone in the state of Georgia who has dealt with this and knows of an honest Kia service center I can try to reach out to?

2023.05.30 15:29 mzeng22 Eviction Without Lease

Waco, TX
Hi guys. I was in Waco, TX in December of 2022 and signed a lease with an apartment under the management company "M". I moved in with two other girls (three of us total) but then had to leave Texas in January of 2023. A new management company "A" took over in January of 2023. I kept paying monthly rent through the year under the impression that I was still legally bound to a lease contract because one of the management representative from "A" told me that my lease with "M" carried over to a lease with "A". Okay, cool I trusted her.
Turns out, I never signed a lease with "A" which was required because they had their own lease terms that were different than the lease "M" wrote. In my resident portal, it says that my lease with "A" was expired and that I needed to contact the leasing office (assuming due to the fact that I never signed in the first place). I also found out that "A" does not hold any record of a signed lease with the previous management company, "M" so long story short they don't have any signed contract with my signature on it at all.
We have some overdue fees (our lease ended May 16) that came out of nowhere and they won't explain the ledger to us. They are threatening it to send to collections as well as proceeding with an eviction. I have asked them three times now to produce a copy of a signed lease in order to validate their proceedings but they have yet to send me one and they haven't responded to my last request that I sent last Thursday. I was recommended to file a case against them in a Justice of Peace Court in the county. I was wondering if I have a case in the first place, and if I should go ahead and sue.
Sorry if this is confusing, I can try to answer any questions to clarify things!

2023.05.30 15:27 smallbrownfrog Plantains

I emailed Monash in November of 2022 because their entry on plantains confused me. Plantains are listed as only containing trace amounts of FODMAPS, but it didn’t say if they were measuring ripe or green plantains. Both kinds are used in cooking, depending on what you are making. So I emailed them and here’s their answer.

2023.05.30 15:26 Even_Safe_4032 I need to let this out I'm at my wits end on what to do w/ this relationship

This will be a long read because I'm unloading a lot so I'm sorry in advance.
Idk where to begin, I guess me and her met 5 years ago when I used to work with her husband at the time. We never really talked much except when I would go over to hangout with the husband because we were friends.
Around the end of 2018 I lost my grandfather who basically raised me because my family doesn't know how to family properly and my parents have never been the happiest or best with each other so he helped shaped me into who I am today. When he passed, I was destroyed and didn't know what to do. On top of him passing while I was upstate for his funeral, the girl I was dating at the time thought this was the prime opportunity to break up with me and she did when I needed her most. So at this point I was basically at my lowest I've ever been.
My friends wife, we can just call her Totah, messaged me while I was there to send her condolences and to check up on me and we began talking. We opened up to each other and ended up spending the whole night talking. She opened up about how her husband was an abusive a-hole to her and her two kids she had with him.
We ended up exchanging explicit pictures that night and began going out and seeing each other and dating behind her husbands back. This went on for a while and she decided to finally start the process of divorcing him and leaving him for good. It was finalized at the end of 2021 and she's away from him for good and so are the kids.
But now comes the bad I suppose. Totah had a really rough childhood, which has led her to have alot of trauma and buried emotions she hasn't gotten any help for. She seems to rely on me for her own happiness cause if we aren't together she doesn't eat, she doesn't sleep, she self harms, etc. We have been on and off dating because honestly it's alot for me and when I'm with her I basically have to put everything about myself away to focus on her and help her and I've felt myself mentally declining heavily.
I have cheated on her, and she knows about them. I guess it's because I feel that I'm not happy or satisfied with the relationship but can't seem to just end it because we always seem to just come right back together and end up in bed together. She has forgiven me, but I can't find it in me to forgive myself. She still wants to be with me more than anyone even though I've cheated on her, I've picked pretty much everything over her haven't treated her the best. Every time I've tried to talk about breaking up with her completely because I know she deserves better, hell she's even said that, but she doesn't let me. She fights and fights to stay with me and only wants to be with me. She will cry, scream, try her best to seduce me, anything so that I won't leave. So I've stayed just so she stays happy and won't do anything to off herself or make herself go downhill.
End of 2021 she randomly wants to get a parental test done out of the blue which caught me off guard but I agreed casue protection was always used on both sides. We got the tests and she took two of them and they both came back positive. Now I was not ready for kids and I made that very clear from the start, besides she already had two and they were starting to see me as a sort of fatherly figure and they liked me. So I ended up breaking up with her casue I thought "there's no way it's mine we both used protection", but she is hypersexual so we always "went at it" alot.
Fast forward to beginning of 2022 and the kid is born and I get asked to take a DNA test and I agree cause why not I had confidence it wasn't mine. Results came back and it was. I was shocked. I was in total disbelief, but totah had always had a bit of a crazy side to her. She would always talk about how im hers and nobody could have me and would describe how much she would do to make sure of that, and looking back on it maybe she tampered with my protection because she did give me some to use just in case.
Now totah is in her late 20's and I'm still in my early 20's, and she does not have a car, or a license, or has a job until recently when I get her a job at where I work because the only way she would work is somewhere with me, she said she applied for jobs all through the pandemic but was never contacted back which I don't believe at all because literally every place was hiring then. I do have a car and I license and a good job so I end up having to drive her everywhere along with my daughter who I now know is mine and I've been trying to be in her life.
I guess where I'm going with this is, I feel stuck now.
How should I go about resolving this?
Idk if I should stay with her but I honestly don't feel the happiest where I am but if I go I probably won't get to see my daughter anymore because I have no rights because my name isn't on the birth certificate and Ive heard rumors that she wants to move away from here so I'd lose the privilege of me and my family seeing my daughter. Im tired of trying to have to fight to get out of the relationship because she stalks me and has ruined other relationships for me when I've gotten into them by starting false rumors and drama. So I'm afraid to finally get away and her ruin more relationships for me, or if I should just stay to make her happy and not put my daughter through a split parent household, because she deserves the best and I know those are never easy at all.
Again I'm sorry for this being so long I'm just realizing I've had a lot built up and I've been to therapy but so far none of them have been the best or have helped so now I'm just at my wits end and just wanting help from anyone on what to do.
Thank you for reading. I did leave some out so feel free to ask questions and I'll be sure to answer them or fill in any blanks.

2023.05.30 15:26 jacson1209 Extreme sun sensitivity on face

Trying to get an answer because I can't keep living like this. Every summer for the last 3 years, if my face comes in to contact with sun, I am in extreme pain that does not go away for months. The first year it took 6 months to go away, when it happened last summer I just got better about 2 months ago and now I think it's happening again. I had sunscreen on and was unexpectedly in the sun for about 1.5 hours, now my forehead feels like it's on fire and my face is tight. I do not have any bumps, nor is the area burned at all. It just feels so painful. I always have sunscreen on outside and if I am going to be in the sun during the highest times of the day I have a hat on. it was just this one time I didn't know I would be out in the sun and I didn't have a hat on me. Anyone have any idea what is going on with me? I am not sure how I can live like this if I know this is going to happen every summer. I can't even enjoy being outside or go on vacations to tropical places.

age and sex 28/F
location of lesion and duration:
symptoms like itchy or not: tight, burning, tingly skin (mostly on forehead)
history of change: Nothing
any existing medical issues: no

2023.05.30 15:17 chudmuffin0 Wetsuit thickness temp questions need advice!

So I am intermediate diver. Got certified 6 years ago and go often in summer (WNY, great lakes and niagara river most often). My family has a place in quebec on a 14 mile lake that is very dark water and gets to 210 feet deep in places and this summer will be my first time diving there with my brother.
I see so many conflicting answers/charts online about what wetsuits are best for what temperatures. (some people up there said they would recommend a 7mm because the lake temp even at 30 feet late summer can be 50 degrees F.) But in the last 20 websites/charts I have seen a 20+ degree difference for 7mm suits. The second thing is I think I have a higher cold tolerance than most. Late Late summer When lake erie is 60 degrees I have do problem doing an hour without a wetsuit, while my brother, or other dive partners will need a 3mm or 5mm. Done it 25+ times and never been cold or gotten sick from it.
So TLDR: for diving in a lake where part of the dive will be at 50 degrees what wetsuit would most of you use, and if I go a mm size smaller than that because I dont get as cold will that be an issue?
Thanks!

2023.05.30 15:16 Odd-Incident3980 Thinking of Nuking Lawn

I live in Columbus Ohio and want to start over with my lawn. We purchased our home late fall off last year and came to understand that we've got a significant Nimblewill problem all over the lawn as well as different types of grass throughout.
I am thinking of starting this process during the first week of October as temperatures are relatively mild during that time and by the end of the month they will be cooler but not too cold. I have read that summer heat is bad for starting new grass so I want to avoid this.
When I do end up nuking the lawn, what product is suggested for nuking the lawn? Are there adverse consequences to the storm basin for using? Would I have to rent a machine to dethatch? Would I need to rent a machine to aerate as well?
How about fertilizer, will I need to put that down with the seed? Are there preferred places to buy cool season grass seed from?
I will have some vacation time during this. Would leaving watering hoses on the lawn during the time I am away be a bad thing? I've been reading you have to water multiple times a day.
I know October is a ways out but I want to have the time to develop a plan and get the materials I need. I also realize the beginner guide exists and have read that multiple times to try and understand what I'm supposed to be doing. I just think starting fresh is the move so that I know exactly what I've done to my lawn.
Thanks to anyone who can take the time out of their day to give me an answer.

2023.05.30 15:15 autotldr Top Emitter China Needs $38 Trillion to Hit Climate Goals Early

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 48%. (I'm a bot)
China, the world's biggest greenhouse gas emitter, can beat its existing climate targets and hit net zero by 2050 if the nation lifts investment in decarbonization to about $38 trillion.
To be on track to zero out emissions by mid-century, China will need to roughly triple its energy transition investment to an annual average of almost $1.7 trillion in the later years of this decade.
China spent $550 billion in 2022 and accounted for about half the global total, according to BNEF. "China already leads the world in manufacturing and deployment of renewables, batteries and electric vehicles," said Nannan Kou, BNEF's head of China research.
"China now needs to accelerate support for early-stage technologies such as clean hydrogen, CCS and advanced nuclear to ensure these technologies can be commercialized in a timely manner."
The nation's rush to ramp up coal production after two consecutive summers of disruptions to power supplies had dampened expectations that China could surpass President Xi Jinping's targets for emissions to peak before 2030 and to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
To meet a 2050 net zero target, China will need to pursue electricity market reforms and continue expansion of its grid to increase the share of renewables in its electricity supply, according to BNEF. Grid spending would need to rise 81% to around $136 billion a year.
