Short answer: It’s a way to generate structured databases for (most) scientific topics. Why? Apply data driven methods to these databases. So what? It’s a powerful way to ask and investigate scientific questions/trends otherwise hidden

As a clarification, we used fine tuning more than prompt engineering because low or few-shot prompt engineering did not work for our use case.

I share your viewpoint on this, that DFT is a poor proxy model for ML to approximate. However, the alternative of using, for example - experimental data, is that the synthesis procedures, measurement parameters, sample impurities, and even

i agree. in principle this is totally fine. in reality, highly paid lawyers throw the law around to accomplish whatever their objectives are. if they’re paid by a media company, and the media company’s objective is to reduce “illegal” repro

More than half of the PhDs I know (in technical fields) have families. Actually, almost all of them.

Well I did as a racer and still do on my firm snow skis. But there is a slight performance trade off depending on what kind of skiing you like to do. I keep my edges on my pow skis dull because it’s slightly easier to slash and dash in crud

On most firm conditions, I absolutely think you can rip it on fat skis with awful edges. Especially on groomers. I do it every year on 120mm waist skis. It is highly dependent on skill level. For an example, watch freestylers carve switch d

I laughed out loud at the “fly off a cliff edge” On the real however, getting down the mountain safely after dusk etc with dull vs. sharp edges will likely only affect intermediate skiers. Beginner skiers are going to crash no matter what t

It’s a racing thing, mostly. Most shops offer a basic service for a machine wax + edge sharpening so that’s when most people get it done (even if they don’t really know what they’re paying for)

I am sure that aphorism is quite apt for thesis defenses, critical debates, shareholder meetings, peer review, and forums of discussion.

Not to be a hater but what exactly is the point of posts like this Nothing factual presented. Not a unique, stimulating, or even really coherent viewpoint. Just a self-confident stream of consciousness with no real takeaway. Eye-catching ti

it depends on if you’re looking for an accurate calculation of atoms and the number of atoms. if you’re just interested in how a lattice of spheres interact, force field software might be your best bet. if you’re interested in electronic pr

i’ve been following Jake’s story since one of his posts was here on HN a few months ago. Both him and his wife are excellent writers. I cannot emphasize enough how horrified I am reading every word. What an utterly ghastly experience. I wat

It may mean the structure of LK-99 found by Kim et al is highly metastable. It does not mean the DFT calculations were useless. Also, for clarity, the original DFT calculations by Griffin do not purport to have “verified” superconductivity,

This is a first-principles calculation known as density functional theory. it’s a useful basis for understanding physics in solids. it won its inventors the nobel prize in chemistry in 1998 iirc

This is a calculation with density functional theory (DFT). Props to the tweet author for mentioning this work, but it doesn’t seem like he knows much about the physics of materials because the explanation re: band theory in the tweet is (i

Sorry to hear that. I had an uncle die from lung cancer (smoker, but otherwise healthy) about a decade ago. I know how horrifying the process is. Hope you have been able to process your grief.

I think this usually happens if your wifi/cellular is still on and connected but there is no actual data connection (ie AM thinks it can contact the server but it actually can’t, so it waits forever). Usually can be fixed by just turni
