They had a massive amount of bot attacks recently. That captcha wasn’t always there, but the website became so slow as to be unusable. That captcha only surfaces from certain countries. It comes up far, far less…
I stand to be corrected :) I knew about the tt stuff, but I had no idea about the 7 TeV photon analysis! Every day is a school day :)
Yep, you’re right about this. I worked on some of these things, but for the actual analysis it was generally all cut-based.
Man, when I was doing my PhD at CERN the most far out thing that we were generally allowed to use was boosted decision trees :) getting anything other than that approved for any Higgs-related analysis was… not a thing.
First request after enabling Siri AI Beta: “Play Powerwolf on Apple Music.” “Okay, here is Power by Katy Perry.” “Play PowerWOLF on Apple Music.” “Okay, here is Power by Katy Perry.” “Fine, just play Sabaton” It got…
One of my friends is an engineer named Claude. I randomly send him my prompts as a joke. For a while he’d just feed my messages straight to Claude, until he found it easier to respond with … curse words :P
In South Africa Toyotas (Hilux in particular) get stolen all the time because they are so reliable (and you get parts throughout Africa). So then you end up making new sales when people replace their stolen cars. One…
There is a lot more to tech than gen AI…
Yep. I'm feeling the same way... even though I'm hardly able to use AI at work, the push is still there for us to use it, making it even more frustrating. Anyway, I hate it, and I'm just sorta phoning it in now and…
Velocity to solution is default for senior management, that's for sure ;)
But does it use AI?
Having a weird experience with this at work. We are being told to use it, but the amount of flip flopping on whether or not we can use ChatGPT or Codex or anything else has left a lot of us without any clear direction.…
Haha yes, I immediately saw the fingers and was surprised 'cos I thought that was something they had "solved" by now
Yeah but in South Africa medical aid rates are regulated by the government and all companies have to stick with that rate. The idea is that if you keep your customers healthy then there are fewer claims.
Oh for sure. It's a carrot-type program though. So you don't get any penalties for not doing something, but you get rewards for doing things.
Largest medical insurance company (Discovery Health) in South Africa has just launched a sleep rewards program as part of their wellness program (Vitality). The idea is that you get rewarded for getting good sleeping…
GOTO3 and loop? Don't you mean GOTO2 and loop ;)
Yep, same in South Africa. I still haven't accepted those T's & C's from a few years ago so can't chat with most businesses. In some cases there is no other option, so I just... don't use that company. On the other…
My take from going through comments on HN is that many people are being mandated to use them, not that they are just giving in. Maybe I'm misreading, but that was my impression.
I’m now paying for Kagi :/
Let’s do both?
I was discussing a change we wanted to make to some tables in one of the DBs, but it would require a lot of effort because of the sheer size. Anyway, after saying how much effort would be required the response I got was…
I gave exactly the same comment to a colleague at work today :D
Seen it used in some of the fraud models (I work in insurance). So that's both from the perspective of people trying to claim fraudulently and from suppliers over charging. I can't say how much of a lift we actually get…
How often does it correctly identify that the blog post was actually written by Claude or ChatGPT etc? :)
