   what are some good post-covid treatments? I seem to be having symptoms of depression after covid. WebMD says a thiamine-rich diet is good to treat beri beri, but not sure if "eating better" can help me out here.

   I see a few comments saying this can also be used to "solve" climate change, but I am trying to understand the how. Do people mean that the world will have less carbon footprint overall because everything will be much more efficie

   How would this make climate change easier to deal with? Because it would make everything that much more efficient? I'm honestly trying to understand the implications.

   I like to entertain myself with the idea that perhaps what's driving the recent spotlight on UFOs is not that we are seeing/detecting them, but that we are detecting more and more of them. Maybe governments around the world have a

   How do you make ends meet? Honest question because maybe I'd like to apply some of your lessons :)

   I thought Anthropic has Claude and Claude Instant. When you say Claude sometimes feels better than Claude+, do you mean that you feel Claude Instant sometimes gives better result than Claude?

    What tasks do you use Claude for?

    I've been looking for a competitive open source alternative to Jira for a non-profit I volunteer at because they cannot afford to pay for any cloud service and Trello has its limitations. Does Plane offer all pro features for open sour

    I have been trying to see if ChatGPT can successfully lay out a meticulous course plan and educational milestones. I am pretty happy with what I see. I can easily imagine kids diving really deep into topics that interest them with a tutor t

    Does anyone know if we're near the theoretical limit of how much we can improve these models by giving them more data? Or should we expect similar levels of improvements in next iterations?

    I'm thinking of writing a story that's based on a premise that superintelligent agents have already come and settled on Earth long before humans have begun walking upright. The twist is these beings decided to become trees after t

    If what we learned from Stable Diffusion can be applied here, we can probably achieve even more amazing results with models that are fine tuned for specific use cases. But that will probably not happen until a similar model is open sourced.

    I have a lot of non-native speakers on my team in which I am the lead. I write "skeletal" design docs for them after discussing what needs to be built, and have them finish the last mile. Over time, I reduce the amount of writing

    I believe that advanced civilizations would not be blindly expansionist. Instead, they would have figured out how to live sustainably without much footprint. We tend to imagine advanced civilizations to be future iterations of our desires,

    Could someone tell me whether it's possible to somehow feed data into this project to improve its translation and transcription capabilities on our own?

    I got it working inside a docker container on my M1 MBP. FWIW, I'm having my $180 tinyminimicro PC run a translation task while my M1 MBP runs a transcription task with the same audio input. So far, the PC is actually outputting result

    In a lot of regions, "farming" sea salt basically means pouring sea water on top of plastic tarps and evaporating water. Over time, the plastic degrades and you get microplastic particles in your salt. You also need to rake these

    Thanks for the link! I think I'm also interested in learning the logistics and legal aspect as well. I feel there are tons of resources out there on how to grow things, but not a lot on how to find land, what you need to look out for,
