   There's a guy, Ken Stanley, who wrote the NEAT[0]/HyperNEAT[1] algorithms. His big idea is that evolution/advancements don't happen incrementally, but rather in unpredictable large leaps. He wrote a whole book about it t

   I'd be curious if you could share some poor-performing prompts. I would be willing to record myself using them across paid models with custom instructions and see if the output is still garbage.

    Birth control uses Ethinyl Estradiol which, despite the name, is not actually Estradiol and so does not undergo the same metabolic pathways and metabolites production I know this because I recently had to source exogenous Estradiol for my w

    Yes, so far my preference has been Tirz. Though cost for Sema is significantly less. It could also be the case that the dose on the Reta I used was too low. I've had a few people mention that they also felt it was fairly weak mg-for-mg

    I've used Retatrutide and wasn't that impressed I used 5mg/wk (Have used Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and Retatrutide. For Sema/Tirz, I've had both RX and grey market.)

    Anyone interested in this should look up "MOTS-C" and "SS-31". They're readily available online. Both of them are peptides that enhance mitochondrial function. MOTS-C in particular is very fascinating. I have a vial

    I'm probably in the minority here, but I also produce House music as a hobby and I love the idea of generative AI as a production tool. I paid $10 to try the latest Suno 4.5 model and one of the songs it produced was incredible (to me)
