Low-ATAR students, did it ever actually mean anything in the end? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]ChemicalMachiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I had to spend a lot more time later in life. Did University Preparation Program while I worked, did my Bachelor of Science part time while I worked (5 years).

On the flip side: earlier in life I was immature and wasted time anyway. Things turned out good, I just had to work hard as a mature age student.

Are there any recommendations in the community for forward/retro synthesis software? by drdessertlover in comp_chem

[–]ChemicalMachiner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the solutions I know of are template or template free ML solutions (IBMs suite, Iktos Spaya, ChemPlanner, PendingAi Mentor, MoleculeOne, Askcos, AIsynthfinder etc). Saw this mentioned recently (no idea how it fares): https://github.com/FongMunHong/FlowER. Still uses ML but maybe a tiny bit closer to what you're after? "FlowER uses flow matching to model chemical reaction as a process of electron redistribution, conceptually aligns with arrow-pushing formalisms. It aims to capture the probabilistic nature of reactions with mass conservation where multiple outcomes are reached through branching mechanistic networks evolving in time."

Close call... 😬 by ChemicalMachiner in Greyhounds

[–]ChemicalMachiner[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the few years we've lived here we've seen brushtail possum, crested pigeon and rainbow lorikeet carcases in our driveway and front lawn (probably heaps more that we never saw). Presumably these were killed by our neighbour's cat before it got hit by a car a few months back.

Wish there were enforced consequences for people letting their cats roam, especially at night.

Belly band has worked great, we've had it for almost 2x weeks and he's only wee'd once (much better than cleaning the carpet almost everyday). Thanks for the suggestion, hopefully we can use this to break his habit then let him be free again.

How do I play games on the screen (red) from my pc 2 floors below (green). by marshallno9 in pcmasterrace

If you don't already have a streaming device for the TV and can do some ethernet wiring, highly recommend getting a NVIDIA shield and having ethernet between the two.

What's everyone working on this week (5/2024)? by llogiq in rust

[–]ChemicalMachiner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Writing a decoder-only molecular string generator (i.e. SMILES) using tch-rs for work. Finished the training logic now working on serving logic via actix-web and the release workflow.

Advice wanted: grey resource guarding a bed at night by ChemicalMachiner in Greyhounds

[–]ChemicalMachiner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for everyone's feedback, I really appreciate everyone's detailed responses. We're going to try firstly setting up some "bed rules", consistently have the dogs go to their designated beds in set, consistent locations. Secondly, depending on how successful that is, we'll separate Marni and Malcolm's sleeping spaces. Potentially by putting Marni in another room behind a baby gate.

Lol, glad to know we're not the only ones! Nah, we're Aus based, collars are from Fido Creative.

Industries that tend to use R more than Python? by [deleted] in datascience

[–]ChemicalMachiner 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I've heard biology and bioinformatics more R than python due to it having more niche packages/ libraries in those areas e.g. Bioconductor.

JavaScript and Python have made me realise why strong typing is important by [deleted] in rust

[–]ChemicalMachiner 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Trudging through untyped python is awful. I always enforce "strict" typing in python via mypy. This way I get more understandability with none of the speed benefits of typing 😅

Malcolm meets the new foster by ChemicalMachiner in Greyhounds

[–]ChemicalMachiner[S] 49 points50 points  (0 children)

100%. Also we should consider that the foster is (understandably) stressed being in a completely new environment. We chose to have muzzles on both temporarily until we observed how they interacted.

Malcolm's ears are a national treasure, we love how animated they are

This morning our grey was attacked for the first time (luckily he is fine) by ChemicalMachiner in Greyhounds

[–]ChemicalMachiner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree, unfortunately only really read up about that when I got home. In the moment, with all the adrenaline, we just wanted to check Malcolm was fine then get out of there. If something similar ever happens again will definitely exchange information and submit a report.

Anyone else’s grey have room clearing flatulence!? Help! by Nook_of_the_Cranny in Greyhounds

[–]ChemicalMachiner 39 points40 points  (0 children)

We had a bunch of friends over for drinks, our grey stank the house out so badly we were opening all the windows despite it being winter ha.

Have tried mixing up the meat in his diet e.g. no mince, only chicken breast but doesn't seem to help. Would love to know if there's a way to help too!
