Some of us do work in actual offices and not in some coffee shops down the street. ;)

And like another commenter said, not every "Pro" user is a developer. I for one just take the Pro as meaning, better/faster.
And if someone wants to Shell out 800+ for such a device that's fine with me. But just because it costs a lot doesn't mean I can do anything with it. I also don't expect a good SSH experience from a Garmin 5X Plus.

Rather think of a regular consumer, of which there are a lot more. Just doing a bit of browsing on the sofa, writing a few emails, reading news, watching Netflix in bed or playing some game.
Personally, I read a lot of papers and ebooks I get via university on it. It's great for that. Not once did I want to use SSH on it, with or without an external keyboard. I use a proper laptop or computer for stuff like that.

But honestly, every time I hear anything about the American healthcare system, I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry.

Imagine having the whole Twitter stream, maybe categorized by some network in an automatic way.
Also prequential evaluation.

That stuff just isn't thought at universities and it's assumed, like oh so many things, that you take it up along the way.

Roughly 2450 euro per month each. One with having 12.6 and the other 14 payments over the year

Germany, Hannover
Roughly two years out of university, but worked part time all the time and took a while to finish my master in CS. Lots of knowledge in ML and DL.
Pay is 53k for a position at the university and will be 56k with 38h weeks next year. (Don't ask me for the hours at the university, thinking about it will make me cry) And the regular 30 vacation days.

Of course a lot of study and also applying what you learned are important. But having a PhD says very little about a person's ability to do data science or machine learning work. Especially since most phds have an extreme focus on their narrow field.

I'm not sure if the backends in use actually allow for a non-regularized use. I would assume so, but does someone know?

Also, Birkenstock soak up blood rather well. Would not recommend in such cases.

The fact that there are no good vaccines really makes me mad, especially as a hiker.
