He absolutely does - although you know he was seething inside and feeling embarrassed as to how he looked.

Not a huge thing, but a thing that I enjoy.
He's absolutely obsessed with how he appears, nothing else matters.
 
I don't know about LMU, but I know a lot of people (both professors, PhD students and Master students) in TUM which is regarded as top university on Germany. At least on my field (AI), it is nowhere near the likes of Stanford, Berkeley or Carnegie Mellon. However, it might be the best university on continental Europe after ETHZ and possibly EPFL. The same thing can be said for most science/technology fields. About social sciences, I have absolutely no idea.

I think that the main differences from European unis and top US universities, is the number of tutors per course (it isn't uncommon for US unis to have a couple dozens tutors, compared to 1 or 2 for European universities), the PhD here being much shorter (just 3 years) and the lack of funding compared to US, in addition to industry connections being much weaker. For this reason, top students from European unis, try to go to US for PhD, but the number is still much lower than that of Indian/Chinese.

Prices for your uni seem absurd even for US.
Off topic , but based on your field , have you seen the Joel Grus "I don't like notebooks" rant?
 
Regulation of Google searches? Is that even possible? I thought Google, as an entity, is free of government interference.

Tell that to google china...among others.

Unless you are sarcastic, do you think google, facebook, etc... are government influenced free?
 
I'm not particularly well versed in this matter, hence my enquiry.

Facebook is changing their policies after the fake news swinging elections. And that after zukenberg testifying at the Senate.

There is always a fight between these companies and the US government, But collaboration exist, sometimes forced, sometimes in the shadows.

China is the extreme case where without google censoring content would never be able to be there, therefore no $$$
 
Yeah, funny enough, I read his presentation today.

I like jupyter notebooks though, but I don't use them for my projects
I don't like them, I am too used to a regular code sequence , and it just feels odd to me. So I agree with most of his points.

I'm not 100% here because I'm not a lawyer. But because Google's algorithm is proprietary with a handful of patents protecting it, the government would have to sue Google and win. Like how the government compelled the breakup of the Bell Corporation in 1982 (which started from an anti-trust lawsuit in 1974). But its a very long legal process so obviously the tangerine nightmare could not just order Google to do it as if he were a dictator.
