Not that I know of, and probably an area that Notion won't catch up in for a long time, if ever.

I use search way less in Notion than Evernote due to the ability to hierarchically organize notes in a manner that better matches my mental map, to the point where it's hard for me to comment on the quality of search in Notion. I haven

For me, Notion replaced Evernote and I haven't looked back. Three features that have been particularly useful for personal productivity are 1) explicit support for Kanban board-ing tasks and similar to-do management 2) collapsible bloc

Hm, please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Zuker algorithm inherently a dynamic programming algorithm? If so, I would have liked to see this paper compare to directly optimizing the input space using a differentiable form o

When was it appropriate for you to burn bridges and how'd you go about it? I'm going through something similar.

I went to a talk by Boston Dynamics at MIT recently. They've clearly thought long and hard about the commercialization problem, and they pinpointed this exact application as the first and best domain to pursue commercially, particularl

Are the qualities you value in managers related to your experience of poor job satisfaction? Are you happier with managers that in hindsight aren't as good?

I prefer notion because it enables powerful structures around individual notes. From when I used evernote, it was limited to folders of lists of notes sorted by some not very useful criteria (towards the end I was naming my evernote notes w

I'm currently doing a Ph.D. It's standard practice for nearly all PhD programs for the advisor to support a minimal stipend ($15-40k or so depending on the field and university) which goes directly to me, plus university tuition (

A significant number of PhDs drop out, and likely literally everyone undergoes some sort of huge realization of how doing a PhD is completely and surprisingly unlike what they expected (which is still true even with all the advice telling p

It would be wonderful to use this for genes, proteins, chemical compounds, etc, whose properties are explored and discussed in disparate publications and difficult to synthesize in any thorough manner by humans.

It's not really meaningful. Humans learn with entirely different stimuli and experience (can you imagine subjecting a person to learning this object manipulation task in the same way as this robot?). In addition, Alpha Go Zero demonstr

Yeah, I think in the data science community, GBDTs are appropriately-hyped, since their dominant performance on Kaggle has been well known for some time now. In addition to that, GBDTs are so easy to run; taken together, it's probably

Nearly all the software are tools for designing CRISPR gRNAs, not really educational software. There are videos and books for learning more about the whole thing though.

tl;dr: (1) The paper's main finding has been known by the DNA repair community, (2) relying on DNA double-strand breaks for genome editing has been known to be non-ideal in the long-term, and (3) current ex vivo therapies are unaffecte

That's just due to Google maps street view - the original images happened to be recorded in the other direction. You'd have the same 50/50 chance on any two way road.
