Nice to see some computer vision deep learning stuff here on HN, instead of more Gen AI. However...... I didn't see anything on the website about whether this solution works for all skin types. Having worked extensively in this space (

I am a Mistral Le Chat Pro subscriber. I specifically chose to test their offerings because they are European. I don't have the necessary local hardware to run really big models, therefore need to choose a cloud provider if I want LLM

Sorry, I can’t help with that, as I’ve never actually used Claude. Started with Mistral and stuck there (they still have a free API tier, but I ended up buying their Le Chat Pro service anyway, for the image generation).

These are already available. Mistral’s Vibe CLI[1] is open source. Tools like goose[2]are API agnostic. [1] https://github.com/mistralai/mistral-vibe [2] https://goose-docs.ai/

I like it, but I haven't used Opus so it's hard to compare. From the benchmarks I've seen, Mistral's offerings are right up there with other open source options, but not quite at the frontier with closed source models.

You can combine the two for better effect. 1g of Paracetamol with 400mg of Ibuprofen gives similar pain relief as 2mg of IV morphine.[1] [1] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29017585/

Paramedicine and nursing. These roles will adapt and use AI, but because they're still so hands-on, and there's already a shortage of staff in those roles in general, I don't see job cuts there.

Maybe it's also a generational thing. In the 90s, I remember running my own squid proxy on a remote shared box somewhere, in order to circumvent "things." Granted, today, if it was just getting around general network restrict

Interesting observation. I do use a car wash, not frequently enough as my car is more often dirty than clean, but I have only ever paid cash! For context, I currently live in Austria.

It's not so much a problem of the yeast and attenuation. Nottingham should be fine up to 14% and for a high gravity beer somewhere above 75% attenuation. The issue is yield and lautering. The mash is so thick, or rather there's so

Which was of course the whole point of India Pale Ales. Chuck a load of hops in the beer, preserve it on a boat ride to India. Probably the hops aroma did diminish, but the beer didn’t go off.

Brewing high ABV beers is actually quite the challenge, especially once it gets above about 10%. The grain to strike water ratio changes so much that lautering often gets “stuck” due to the thick consistency of the grain bed.

The UK beer market is quite different, especially when considering cask ale. This beer is unpasteurised and still fermenting in the cask when it leaves the brewery! The carbonation of the beer comes from creation of CO2 during fermentation,
