/sci/ - Science & Math

I ate a small boiled potato. It was bitter and part of the skin burned my tongue to the point I had to spit it out (this was after I had eaten the rest). Supposedly, this means it was highly toxic and I could potentially die.

I tried to ignore it but started feeling some symptoms 10 minutes later. I feel better now so I don't believe it was really enough to kill me but just in case I want others to know about this.

My apologies...

how much different is Ph.D than master's? I'm already a terrible worker, it takes me forever to write shit and I get bored reading papers day in, day out.

I'm almost done with Master's and got accepted to Ph.D but I feel like I'm too much of a lazy schlub and everyone will shit on me during it

Lua only has speed going for it over python and even pypy closes that gap.
