Do you want to run this as an open source project? Also, are you going for standard lab protocols (of say the pharma variety), or reproducible statistical analysis as well?

I think the problem with this model is a question of scaling. Suppose I write a fitting program which I sell. Sure, I have to support it for some fraction of users, but for the most part, I have the initial cost of creating/marketing it,

Sometimes because people want help? Look at some libraries like matplotlib, or numpy. They're extremely useful, but they benefit because you have a team of developers working on it. Now, imagine that you're a company that sells services

Actually, this is true. If I look just one district over, the math level stopped somewhere around Trig. I think. For my cousins who lived just a few hours away, again, the schools didn't offer much. I think that there is something to be

Given loggers, or just the general expansion of modern civilizations, they will run into the outside world. Wouldn't it be better if they were given a gentle introduction? Send in some speakers and voice/video feeds. Eventually send in p

This person's resume is getting a lot of useful feedback. Outside of volume, is there a legal reason why most firms don't tell people why they weren't hired? Or is the typical, "It was a difficult decision, with many excellent candidates.

I started with 48 credits and it does get the basic math and general ed requirements out of the way. That way, I could start graduate physics and math course by my 2nd year at the university.... But, we take students from some magnet schoo

I think it's a question of the kind of code that people do in science/engineering as compared to CS (my background is that I'm a practicing physicist, but started out with a background in Computer Engineering in undergrad.) Yes, some basic
