The road from finding a new molecule with antibiotic properties to passing Phase 3 is... long, arduous and not worth it. And if you do spend the $1bn to get there, you end up like Achaogen. For anyone in this field, read this teardown of Ac

> 好的，用户发来消息：“hello do you speak english” (Hunyuan-T1 thinking response) It's kind of wild that even a Chinese model replies "好的" as the first tokens, which basically means "Ok, so..." like R1 and the other models

As someone who frequently thinks in both English and Chinese, I wonder if this "proves" that the Whorfian hypothesis is correct, or maybe at least more efficient?

if you have small data requirements (less than 100mb) I just run FAISS for embeddings and store the rows of data and vectors in JSON. I then have a small python script to run a vector similarity algo like cosine similarity or whatever. It&#

I used to work for Coke — they've been making a lot of money for a very long time. The size of a moat befits the size of a castle it protects. Coke absolutely has a moat, but it's not big enough to defend Coke as a trillion dollar

I think for regulated fields / high impact fields $1/1000 is well-worth the price; if the accuracy is close to 100% this is way better than using people, who are still error-prone

I totally agree, though whatever Jesse Schell writes is great (he was my advisor!) I'd say pick ONE SINGLE MECHANIC and MAKE IT FUN. That's it. You can even just duplicate a mechanic that already exists: Tetris, Breakout, Balatro,

First we shape our tools, then our tools shape us. The same is true with writing — and our modes of writing. I agree that writing to think is important, and that putting ideas on paper makes an ephemeral idea "real". However I dis
