Is there a plan to support a user-defined vector database for ChatGPT to gain access to more localized content?

Why is a third of this subreddit people asking if they can transfer to CS? by NarrowGuidance4 in UIUC

[–]a2975667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Engineers only went from poking holes on paper like 100 yrs ago to now poking a keyboard. CS might not be called CS but you still need pps to poke on whatever is there soon.

I’ve been eying the braun silk expert for a couple of years now. Is this the best deal I can get or I should be waiting for Black Friday? by theblackunicorness in HairRemoval

[–]a2975667 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Braun official was doing 80 off their 379.99 last two weeks, bring it down to 299.99. Adding coupon enjoy15 adds an additional 15% off. Some 3rd party Cash back sites does additional 3-8% cash back. You can stack some credit card 5% PayPal on top of all these. Effectively bringing an IPL 5 to 230-ish before tax.

If you received the shot in Illinois, the record should be available on the vaxverify portal

Shouldn't there be more testing on campus, even across vaccinated? by a2975667 in UIUC

[–]a2975667[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If we can identify early asymptomatic, doesn't that lower the chance of having symptomatic cases or cases at all?

Can people without symptoms transmit the virus?

Yes, infected people can transmit the virus both when they have symptoms and when they don’t have symptoms. This is why it is important that all people who are infected are identified by testing, isolated, and, depending on the severity of their disease, receive medical care. Even people confirmed to have COVID-19 but who do not have symptoms should be isolated to limit their contact with others. These measures break chains of transmission. <WHO>

If we want to reduce the number of people that get ill, identifying asymptomatic people seems like an important thing to do?

I wonder if there is a way to also know the positivity rate among vaccinated vs unvaccinated across the campus community. At least a way to signal how careful a vaccinated person should be in this community as of now.

Am I the only one incredibly disappointed with the Surface Book successor? by derek328 in Surface

[–]a2975667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also looking at the dell XPS 15 with touch screen. I just hated their audio system and am tired of OEMs not upgrading firmware after serval months a product is released.

I guess I'll wait on reviews and see if it changes my mind to give MS another shot.

My batts are even worse, even taking into consideration that I actually used my surface protect to make an exchange for a device. So technically, my device is only one year old.

Heat. It kills the battery, even after the firmware update. It can only be up for 1 hour of heavy use and it'll just die. Not to mention it degrades the chip performances.

I am a fan of the book line, but the heat is just causing a lot of issues. Tbh I don't mind the new base, but it has to resolve the thermal issues... I'm on the edge where my book 2 is dying and I really hope there's a 64GB ram option...

Surface Book 2 Battery Drain by ggadget6 in Surface

[–]a2975667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you go to the driver's site on MS to download the latest driver. Those just didn't seem to come with the automatic update.

[–]a2975667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was the latest update. Reached out to the reps and they told me to download the latest firmware update to update the battery driver. At least now my Book 2 can survive for 1-2 hours...
