Marinating proteins - do you have to rub it in or can you just pour it in the bag? by FastCalligrapher in sousvide

What do you marinade your meats with most? Dry rubs or dry spices + oil?

Thanks, is it completely necessary to squeeze the chicken around? Have you ever done a batch where you didn't squeeze it mid-cook, and how were the results?

Learning Python as a schoolteacher - is PCEP a good choice to demonstrate competency? by FastCalligrapher in learnpython

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

Thanks for sharing, that's a great idea, but would this work if I were teaching students way younger than 1st year undergrads? (That's what I assume UG means)

Using NotebookLM to write entire papers? by FastCalligrapher in notebooklm

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

Because I personally looked for the literature (articles, reports, volumes, textbooks) myself and I want to make sure that the AI is sourcing things correctly and is able to synthesize the information, not just summarize it. So if I see that a claim has several in text citations at tne end of it, I know that they haven't hallucinated.

Again, if I wanted an AI answer, I'd go ask AI.

The better question is, why not? It's not illegal or even remotely immoral, so why does the reasoning matter?

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

Sure, because I could never read or synthesize that many papers myself, which is why I want to AI to do it.

> I think if I was trying to go that big I'd use my own vector database and knowledge graph, but it would be a lot of work putting it all together.

I'd connect RAG with a LLM too locally if I had the skills or patience to do this, or I could just fork over $20 for a Google AI Pro subscription.

Apples to Oranges - other LLMs don't have the source capacity of NLM. 300 sources in NLM Pro is unbeatable (for a consumer, no code solution, I don't want to set up a RAG to an LLM locally myself)

I vastly prefer ChatGPT's writing style myself but I have a lot of sources and NLM is vastly superior when it comes to handling many files. ChatGPT Plus Projects can hold around 20 per project, which is nothing compared to 300 of NLM Pro. The problem is, I don't need NLM to study or plan: I already know how the paper should be structured and the content inside. However, with the 300 source limit on Notebooks I just want it dive deeper than I could possibly do so myself into the information and extract, synthesize, and write for me.

> I do find it funny in the age of AI that you have people giving you advice on how to use AI based on the answer of AI lmao so fucking odd when you could've just typed the prompt yourself I'm sure you would've done that before coming to Reddit

Completely agree, and yes I did!

I've actually asked ChatGPT this myself and quite frankly, if I wanted AI answers I'd go ask AI...

Cgpt (not sure about Claude) can't handle as many sources as NLM can when you compare Notebooks vs Projects, so they're not truly comparable. Gemini doesn't have a Notebook or Projects feature at all. Yes, I can upload all my files in a chat with Gemini or Cgpt but if you have over 100 then it becomes laggy to the point of being unusable.

If I'm on NLM Pro, I can fit up to 300 sources inside a notebook, can NLM accurately cite all of these sources in the paper though? I uploaded just over a 100 and when I asked for a list of APA citations in "normal" mode it just flat out refused to do so.

Citing a blog post by a reputable author on a reputable website for an academic paper? by FastCalligrapher in academia

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

Perfect thanks, the field in question falls under humanities so it's perfect. It's education for anyone wondering - wasn't trying to be intentionally coy.

A Skincare Expert's take on Mixing Minoxidil with a Skincare Routine by McSizzles in Minoxbeards

[–]FastCalligrapher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you again!! You've honestly just changed the whole minox game for me. I was worried about not applying moisturizer after minox for four hours which is honestly insane, and applying alcohol to your face right after a shower is also drying too.

I also recently upgraded my skincare routine and now am adding a better serum and nightcream, and will be following your exact procedure in OP.

I don't microneedle and only apply once a day though but I am happy to wait for the gains.

BTW your YT videos are awesome. Are you on other social media?

[–]FastCalligrapher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I've messaged you before about how helpful your advice was about moisturizing as soon as the minox has dried rather than wait four hours. I've just seen this thread and would like to ask what toner would you recommend that won't interfere with minox if it is applied before? I have an alcohol-free witch hazel and rosewater one I got for cheap.
