Best thing I saw this morning! I will have to check it out once I get home

It's incredibly good and runs on pretty much everything.

There is a read only demo here https://a.ocv.me/pub/demo/

I was mostly using 4o for academic searches and planning. It was the best model for me. Based on the context I was giving and questions I was asking, 4o was the most the consistent model.

It used to get things wrong for sure but it was predictable. Also I liked the tone like everyone else. I stopped using ChatGPT after they removed 4o. Recently, I have started using the newer GPT-5 models (got free one month). Better than before but not quite. Acts way over smart haha

I have lost most of my bids to bots. Bots will literally bit at hh:59:59. The ceiling value doesn't work unless you bid way above the asking price.

Are you sure the winner didn't just have a higher max bid than yours?

Maybe but highly unlikely. I was winning till like hh:59:30 but suddenly the winning bid was like 30 dollars more than my bid

Grading the students. Usually for bigger classes, universities (at least mine) don't provide adequate support for grading the tests.

I feel the same with experimental biology with animals. Nowadays, you need fancy computational models with loads of data to publish in good journals. The reason: because everyone else is doing it. The days of elegant, simple experimental design are gone for the better or the worse.

Cool game. Harder for me. I have background in most of the undergrad and some grad molecular biology. Still, the hints didn't help much. The most useful hints were on function of the gene and cellular components. Also, I have been out of touch with gene names from the last few years. I tried searching using a gene's function but didn't work as much. At the end I got 81% close but far from the answer.

You could start with popular gene names.

You don't :( You look for alternatives. You get discriminated based on wealth

Open access paradox. As an author, I hate gold open access journals. My supervisor doesn't have money (~3000 CAD nowadays) to pay for publishing. He says he would rather pay for my or other grad students' summer salary

Each time I spent hours searching an appropriate journal for my research. As time goes on, I feel like research is only for very wealthy people.

To me LLMs are glorified google search. I use them like that.

Windows 11 rant:

My home mini pc is having Bluetooth issues from last 6-7 months after some update. I can't go back, tried every possible solutions. Best option: wait for them to fix it.

The issue: Sometimes if the Windows boot normally, Bluetooth won't turn on. I have to force restart to have it on. My guess is it's trying to optimize the power or something. I gave up.

My other laptop and work computer are still Windows 10, so some sanity left. I have installed kubuntu on another spare laptop and slowing moving towards linux entirely.

I had the same bluetooth issue on windows 11. It stopped working. I didn't even have the option to see the bluetooth setting. All my peripherals stopped working and I had to bring out the cables. Then one day after a month or so it was fixed.

Perhaps try a clean Win11 install using latest updates on an external drive, to see if that fixes your Bluetooth. Sometimes Windows borks itself and everything needs to be reinstalled.
