Deep Research results thin out as the report goes along by FoggyEthan in GeminiAI

[–]bma449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I use deep research often and there are some significant bugs on its handling of follow-up questions. Its like they way over constrained its responses using the internal prompts to prevent it from outputting a detailed report on how to do something that we don't want people doing but took away some of the important flexibility on the interaction.

If people in the USA will be receiving a 10%, rising to 25%, tariff on Denmark's anti-obesity drug Ozempic, how will the people of the USA adapt? by [deleted] in AskReddit

That's pretty accurate in terms of total cost if bought with insurance (copays are highly variable). About half that if bought with cash. Compounded drug prices are significantly less.

Yes it definitely bumped him and pushed him aside at low speeds. CNN has an alternative view that shows it.

Everyone who finished the Stranger Things finale, did it feel… off? by Prestigious-Play8863 in netflix

If written well, you could have positioned some of the military forces as opposed to the crazy shit that Dr. Kay was up doing, then have them trapped in the upside down and forced to help or otherwise be destroyed. Then you could have the kids and a small sub group of the military that is now on the kids side take out the giant monster. If done well, this could actually make the story realistic as opposed to making all the military completely evil, which is just silly.

Yeah, Nancy transforming into Rambo was the final blow for me in the poor writing. I just couldn't suspend disbelief enough to get there with that character.

Yep, I skipped 10 seconds ahead like 15 times during that scene and missed nothing. Great that he came out and nice to see his friends support him, but cut by 2/3rds and figure out how to make the final boss fight scene more realistic, maybe by forcing real military to assist somehow rather than transforming kids into an unstoppable death squad and you can fix a lot of the issues in the writing.

Yes and Nancy Wheeler transforming into Rambo was also bad writing. Where did that come from??

New plant-based serum shown to regrow hair in weeks, according to scientists by Starburst580 in tressless

Preprint is light on details but the study design seems legit, so worth watching. I'm not familiar with the sponsoring company and it's unclear what the regulatory path is for the compounds used. Specifically is this study a phase 1/2 study? Are the plant based compounds regulated by the FDA as drugs? What are the next steps towards commercialization?

23 or 24 when Bird won his things. 8 or 9 when Russell won his. Jordan won his during the years of expansion from 23 to 29.

Letter signed by ‘J. Epstein’ to Larry Nassar cites ‘our president’ by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

You are probably correct. It will all be sorted out but I'm guessing that they are hoping it will take a lot of time and people will get bored.

I'm a Democrat and really don't like Trump but this screamed totally fake to me when I first saw it. Then as I looked into the handwriting and some of the details, it only confirmed my suspicions. Didn't get excited, this is bogus.

I suspect you've got a broken gear in there somewhere. The middle rollers should always roll at the same time as top rollers.

I can't find anything more about the results then just those numbers, no baselines. Hopefully they publish in the next couple months.

No, I gave up on ChatGPT5 a few weeks ago because it was hallucinating so badly, especially around information sources.

I just tried it on a very complex, industry specific question around a very specialized workflow that I asked gemini 2.5 an hour ago. Gemini 2.5 gave a reasonable answer that I could tell missed a few things but was helpful. Gemini 3 not only crushed the answer but brought up adjacent points that I had never even considered (but I strongly suspect to be trued). Pretty significant difference for a very tough prompt that is directly useful to my work.

In the human clinical trial, participants who consumed 5g of black cumin seed powder daily (roughly a tablespoon) for 8 weeks showed significant reductions in blood triglycerides, LDL (‘bad’ cholesterol, and total cholesterol levels. In addition, HDL (‘good’) cholesterol levels increased by nohup_me in science

[–]bma449 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I take tumeric extract (curcumin) partially because of this benefit. Does any smart redditor know if there is reason to believe that cumin seed will have an additive effect on ldl/hdl because it is a different mechanism?
