Need to be careful about this one. A student at my alma mater was suspended for doing the same thing: https://www.reddit.com/r/ucf/comments/xo5ye/ucf_student_pena...

You have to love the education system...

Really surprised to hear my hometown mentioned on hackernews! Went to Carillon as a child, still around the area now working at UCF.

This comes as Intel reduced their CPU prices a few days ago and Nvidia reduced their GPU prices yesterday. Competition is good!

Great template! I used to use Awesome CV myself, and it inspired me to learn the basics of LaTeX.

I was surprised to not see Creatine available, given it's popularity among the bodybuilding/gym community!

University. Find a professor doing similar work and gain experience alongside them. Academic research has given me opportunities to gain the necessary skills and has allowed me to identify my own research questions while being armed with the tools to investigate thr answers.

Reading sites like Hacker News and other relevant forums also gave me a second opinion on problems and helped prevent me from becoming a thought clone of my academic mentors.

Thanks for the correction.

Truthfully I would not consider TeamSpeak, Ventrillo, or Mumble as a superior solution. The benefit of Skype has always been that it dod not require joining more than one server. In the article example, consider the line about individuals having their Yahoo username on their badge.

When an industry is so reliant on one service, it's very difficult to shift an entire industry to a new platform. Segmentation is a real thing.

A good example I'm familiar with is within electronic sports (competitive video-games): almost every executive, player, personality, etc has been using Skype since ~2010. Unfortunately, Skype has a large number of security vulnerabilities and users can be subjected by DDOS attacks- which is especially important if such an attack impacts their performance in a game, or interrupts a livestream. Even though there are, arguably, better products being created that serve the same purpose as Skype and that don't fall victim to this problem (Discord, Slack), those within the industry don't want to segment themselves from everyone else.

Definitely the best way to ease the transition between chat services.

My university (in USA) has not blocked SciHub domains.

Competitive gaming (esports) is growing rapidly among the typical varsity high school sports audience. I used to run a high school varsity esports league around this: http://www.hsstarleague.com
