That channel is just hype machine. Like half the stuff he says is barely comprehensible if you know the actual science.

Getting funded by a16z is if anything a sign that the field is not hot anymore.

I am so glad I got my basics in before this AI era, I feel sorry for the folks who are just learning to code now. AI can do all the basic tasks and frameworks so it will probably feel so futile for them to try to learn it all by themselves.

I’m also confused what they’re talking about.. Does OpenAI have some feature I’m not aware of?

by ramraj07 2y ago
Why isn’t every person defending this idea mentioning this fact. It’s so obvious once you mention it.

This protein is only slightly larger than the previously largest protein ever, Titin. Which is ubiquitously found in all your muscles so making such large proteins isn’t rocket science for our cells.

Can you elaborate on What’s a PKS? Have you read the science article and does it mention PKS? I don’t have full text access but from the article and the abstract it didn’t sound like it’s a new addition to an existing paradigm..

Just look at Postman.

It’s phase 2, not peer review published yet but results are out - https://www.morningstar.com/news/globe-newswire/1000985090/l... Sounds significant. Phase II is typically not enough to tell if a drug is good

It just takes away the pain, it’s clearly written in the article.

Yeah this announcement sounds like the type of thing bad bosses do to look like their decisions till now were sound (they were not). Accepting star liner as a mistake will ask the question what NASA did anyway.

This is like saying “we shouldn’t be celebrating a computer that can talk, my parrot can do that!”

I would disagree that the issue in Yelp and Google is that folks skewed to the right in their ratings - my experience has been that if a restaurant has 4.5+, it’s a safe bet. There’s literally no more information you can glean from google.

Nope this is literally my estimate of how much the experiments cost for the paper alone (reagents, animals, and the labor for these experiments).

Im sorry for your loss, cannot imagine having to watch your loved one suffer helplessly! There is _some_ good news though, I think diagnostics are getting better at letting doctors know if immunotherapy will work in a patient or not. Hopefu

Immunotherapy is amazing IF your tumor is immunogenic (i.e. it has many mutations and at least some of them create proteins that are very different from your regular cells). If it’s not, then most immunotherapy treatments don’t work. Melano

I estimated that any paper that has mouse work and produced in a first world country (I.e. they have to do good by the animals), the minimum cost of that paper in expenses and salary would be $200,000. Average likely higher. Tens of thousan

One man army apps are generally dead simple to maintain and bug-fix. You write all the code, so when someone pings you with a problem you know exactly what caused it without any need to check for anything. I’ve maintained apps like that for

I really don’t know what the detractors of Copilot are writing, the next StuxNet? Whether I’m doing stupid EDA or writing some fairly original frameworks Copilot has always been useful to me writing both boilerplate code as well as completi

I’ve come up with some of the core solutions in my org to solve massive big data problems and had to depend on intuition and theory instead of the web. I still failed a merge sort whiteboard challenge in an interview. Some people just can’t

The point is you want your screen to annoy you so you don’t use it in that time.

But isn’t this true no matter how pedantic you want to get? You’re still gonna have to go around the world in a fairly southern latitude…

We know the connections and the neurons but we don’t know the connection strengths and the exact neurotransmitter mixes that work on them. This is just the bare minimum information we need to even try and simulate the system and we don’t h

Okay here are some background facts: 1. The worm is 1 mm long and few hundred microns across. 2. It has a fully characterized nervous system - 302 well defined neurons that have been mapped and named in exquisite detail. We even know which

Can’t you calculate the CRLB for any given distribution if you wanted? That’s what my lab did for microscopy anyway. Saying you’re beating the Shannon limit is like saying you’re beating the second law of thermodynamics to me.. but I could

Like if someone is determined to spend that amount of moola to spy on you personally, you’re a different category of person than the normal joe tho?

I have, and haven’t come away impressed. I have in fact done this multiple times. perhaps this doesn’t work with actual complex analytics and stuff? DuckDB doesn’t even do proper SIMD for example. To be clear I have used Duckdb in some serv

Don’t know what you’re talking about. Used correctly snowflake can be as effective cost wise or cheaper for most orgs’ data needs. Compared to spinning up and down clusters of spark (and maintaining g teams to do this work or paying databri

Or if all your data is in a place like snowflake, you just create a view and send them the name..
