I have found it interesting that I cannot mix paints (subtractive color) to get black. It always seems to be brown. Is it possible to find a combination of paints that blocks all light? BTW, this is not considering the possible "combination" of just one color black.
As a person who suffers from mania I would argue that everyone "suffers from it" does not apply to mental illness.
Do you have 3 or 4 days in a row where you can't sleep? Do you send emails to everyone at three in the morning that are totally crazy (such as only a maniac would write)? Do you speak at company meetings and have one of your employees write "shut up" on a piece of paper and hold it so that only you can see it?
I assume this refers to a PHD. The masters degree I got is also post-grad.
I'm not sure if anyone else covered it but you have to have a certain amount of money to get a PHD. I was approved to enter a doctorate program at Stanford. I couldn't afford it so I went to HP to earn some money. After the five-year approval expired I was disappointed that I could never afford it. (We're talking astronomical numbers here).
When I was a student 30 years ago, the rule of thumb was: Don't get a graduate degree unless someone else is paying for it. In my field (physics), a first or second tier school would provide free tuition plus a stipend if they expected to get any students.
Don't know how things are now, or how they are in other fields.
Now, of course free wasn't exactly free, because studying in grad school was potentially at the expense of working a regular job. That's another topic.
Hmm. When I told the professor trying to "hire" me that I couldn't afford it there was no mention of a stipend. Could it have been different in the 1970s?
I'm currently doing a Ph.D. It's standard practice for nearly all PhD programs for the advisor to support a minimal stipend ($15-40k or so depending on the field and university) which goes directly to me, plus university tuition (up to $50k/yr depending on the university) which my lab directly pays my instutition. I only see the tuition bill and that it's paid for me.
Notably, this typically isn't the case for Masters programs, which are cash cows for universities like Stanford and charge $40k/yr+ for students.
Like the other commenter said, any Ph.D. program that isn't covering your tuition and providing a reasonable stipend has huge red flags all over it. They aren't the norm, either.
Frankly, I don't think it will. The typical user will never hear about this, and those that do will forget about it in a week. They just want to play Fortnite, and they'll do whatever to get there.
This make me think of watching "She's Gotta Have It" by Spike Lee. When watching the black and white movie I was blown away by the image depth. It a bright sunlit scene you could see shadows and details in the shade under a tree.
For some reason black and white film always had more dynamic range than color. I don't know why.
