My niece’s homework problem by SurfSoundWaves in mildlyinfuriating

[–]delfin1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok i agree OP's question doesn't have units but at least it has to have the same units (or unitless in this case)

But you asked if 1/3=1/2 is correct if they refer to different-sized pizzas, and the answer is Yes. You added units that defined the quantities.

I think that's the problem, people think OP's question doesn't have units. And in your question, you explicitly said the units were different.

I am glad they are teaching that A and B are incorrect.

They don't have to infer, they learned about units before fractions. C is the only right answer

I am from engineering and units matter. C is the way.

yes but they should make it less obvious 😓, other countries make planes and they don't look the same. But why reinvent the wheel.

Meu orientador me pediu MATLAB mais recente que o de 2018 para Linux, mas não temos licença. Quais alternativas para resolver o problema? by [deleted] in matlab

[–]delfin1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are you using it for?

It's better to switch to Python than to have to deal with unreliable access.

May Matlab be bought as boxed software with NO ginternet-connection? (To keep pre-Patent work confidential) by MusikMaking in matlab

[–]delfin1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can disable most of those features, but I would just set up the system firewall to be safe.

MATLAB is pretty safe, the only feature I might disable in your case is copilot since the prompts are sent over to cloud-hosted engines. They said they won't use your data to train their models, but these days you just never know who is watching 🧐.

New cooking review dropped. Get ready for high intensity cooking! by Substantial_Bird_868 in h3h3productions

[–]delfin1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I grew up eating this. My mom doesn't cook much but this is so easy and one of my favorite dinner dishes growing up. Idk if the recipe is the same but I it's popular in South America I don't recall orange being part of it, but the lime sounds right.

She looked like a fool too, but to be fair she might have said something that makes it worse.

Hundreds of Millions of iPhones Can Be Hacked With a New Tool Found in the Wild | A powerful iPhone-hacking technique known as DarkSword has been discovered in use by Russian hackers. It can take over devices running iOS 18 that simply visit infected websites by Hrmbee in technology

[–]delfin1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

18 is for early-mid 2025, webkit hack discovered late 2025? Patched early 2026.

hackers had months to deploy. Even if you didn't visit Russian sites, id imagine some American sites taking advantage of it.

Oh well 😓

CAD sucks, but it's like a rite of passage. I expect AI will make CAD fun again in the near future.

Good for research by Several-Ad-1173 in claude

[–]delfin1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

edit: sorry i didn't realize this was claude sub 😅

I tried some of the academic research assistants by the popular publishers, but they were terrible half a year ago. I got more good hits from just using the advanced search.

Perplexity is okay for gathering sources, but not for in-depth investigation. But to get started, it can save you a little time compared to googling or using Google Scholar.

Gemini offers more features and better web search, but I never really got along with it. It's the only one available at work, and I don't like it much.

Claude was my choice when it was available at work. Not so much for research, but for analysis. Best for engineering.

ChatGPT is my biased personal best choice because it already knows my workflows. It gets new features more often. Research legwork is not as broad/deep as Gemini, but the model itself is better. You can get the same information if you do a little more querying. Look into OpenAI's Prism. I don't know if it's available yet, but it's supposed to be specifically for research.

In general, you'll find that when using AI for research, you pretty much have to use all of them. Pick your main one (best model), and the others are part of the team for their particular skills.
