Agreed, this is one of the things I'm very surprised - one would think that a product like this is managed more consistently, but every few days there is another announcement or change in what the subscription can and can't do and to what extent.

Same also for the announced changes around `claude -p` and Agent SDK use that were backtracked

Are there any details on the biology and chemistry work they did?

For example, the AAV capsid assembly looks interesting, but for one Opus 4.8 also did relatively well and there is no information what exactly they did, what protein language models they compared to and what the score even means...

I recently started using Paperless to manage all my documents and wanted to include archive serial numbers (ASNs) for all physical documents that I scan, so I built a small tool to create and print archive serial number label sheets with QR/Barcodes:

It's free, no sign up or ads - feedback welcome :)

I recently started with Paperless-ngx and wanted to also include archive serial numbers (ASNs) for all paper documents using small label stickers, so I built a small tool to create and print ASN label sheets. It's free, no sign up, no ads and just runs in the browser:

If you're also using Paperless-ngx with ASNs or use them for something else, feedback welcome :)

Wero Wallet 12 months ago

I wish there was a European alternative to PayPal et al., but Wero seems too be too little too late and too slow.

Not enough banks participating, no ability to connect multiple accounts, credit cards etc., no payments integration with vendors and finally no incentives to switch vs. the incumbents in the space - I guess you would need a serious marketing campaign with discounts, cashback etc. to get people to use it and reach a critical mass. But let's see - maybe I'm too pessimistic...

It'd be more interesting if they shared actual examples of complete prompts, CLAUDE.md files, settings and MCP servers to achieve certain things.

The documentation is good, but is kept relatively general and I have a feeling that the quality of Claude Code's output really depends on the specific setup and prompts you use.

From the title I thought code or model weights had been leaked, but it's access to Sora through Huggingface by a group of early testers.

With their auth tokens being used to provide the API access, won't OpenAI find out really quick who is behind that?

Thanks, this was pretty funny. I also didn't realize how many different Pokémon there are today, definitely more than in the first Pokémon game on that clunky grey Gameboy I had :)

Crispr is widely used and there are even therapies approved based on it, you can actually buy TVs that use quantum dots and click chemistry has lots of applications (bioconjugation etc.), but I don't think we have seen that impact from AlphaFold yet.

There's a lot of pharma companies and drug design startups that are actively trying to apply these methods, but I think the jury is still out for the impact it will finally have.

Great achievement, although I think it's interesting that this Nobel prize was awarded so early, with "the greatest benefit on mankind" still outstanding. Are there already any clinically approved drugs based on AI out there I might have missed?

In comparison, the one for lithium batteries was awarded in 2019, over 30 years after the original research, when probably more than half of the world's population already used them on a daily basis.

Great article with very nice examples, really tempts me to play around with some of these techniques myself!

I saw an exhibition of Refik Anadol's Nature Dreams last year in Copenhagen, can only recommend to see one of his video installations if there is one near you, they are quite mesmerizing: https://refikanadol.com/works/

I work in data science for a pharma/chemical company. Broadly speaking, our team is applying machine learning to chemistry and biology-related problems. Those are usually falsifiable and can and will be validated through lab experiments.

The main problem here is that experiments tend to be expensive - depending on the problem a single data point can easily cost from $100+ (sample preparation and measurements) to $100k+ (e.g. synthesis of a new compound). So our datasets are often small, and there is some barrier for lab colleagues to trust/try out some new ML model vs their status quo.

But it is quite rewarding when it works and one also gets to interact with people from different disciplines on all sorts of interesting problems :)
