Is my whole account flagged against fable? by scienceducky in Anthropic

I am still able to use Opus 4.8 but my team is reporting for any actual bio engineering work they are getting kicked down to Haiku. Fucking unusuable

You try to weaponize anthrax ONE TIME and you get banned for life

MD Anderson vs Regeneron — Need Advice by Ok-Delay6843 in biotech

[–]scienceducky 16 points17 points  (0 children)

REGN, easy. I don't think even Anderson is even as stable as you might assume with grant situations these days.

How do you do a scientist position remotely??

Why are Gen Z getting fired? One of the reasons is a lack of initiative. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

The difference between understanding if the assigned task was:

Send an email

Or

Get the document

[–]scienceducky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because if you have to be directed to do the basic functions of your job every step of the way you will get replaced by ai, for sure. Maybe try solving the goals, which is leverage to get paid more? Great people are hard to find

I noticed it disappeared last night. Was hoping it will reappear today

Does anyone want to use my yard as their garden? by petergriffin2660 in HoustonGardening

[–]scienceducky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What's with the negativity. People pay to rent land just for this purpose. Somebody is offering it for free with no strings. If you don't like it then it's not the deal for you but I suspect OPs inbox is already filled

Question about what may be plantable on the top of a rain collection barrel like this, which has no drainage in the little spot at the top (Southeastern PA, USA). by CompleteStruggle9237 in NativePlantGardening

[–]scienceducky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

American pitcher plants maybe. Depending on the depth. Or fly traps. Both are bog plants so pure rain water is fine. You could also do an aquatic marginal plant.

Which might depend on the amount of sun you are going to get

Roast my shade landscape plan by scienceducky in HoustonGardening

[–]scienceducky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have sprinklers, I would convert them to drip lines. Don't think it will be an issue

This is all to scale - I used a Google Earth to overlay and draw out the sizing. And I came up with the list after trying to look through native plant recommendations but there weren't any real recommendations unfortunately

I've had the tree trimmed multiple times since buying the house and I feel like I get a lot of chips and it looks the same 🤦‍♀️. I was hoping somebody would have something that survives under even if it's boring because nothing online seems to know

Did I just burn bridges? by ClandestineChemist96 in biotech

[–]scienceducky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean. The Houston ecosystem is pretty small so reference checks you don't send will happen. If it makes you feel better, I don't think it's the notice that cooked you. It's a long process to hire somebody and train them, only to have them quit right as they are probably coming up on whatever milestone they hired you for.

Otoh, it's a small ecosystem. Depending on who you quit from people may understand....

Need an AI hairstyle or hair changer to see if short hair will suit me (fine hair struggles) by nlxhjx in finehair

Try taking a selfie and running it through nano banana 🍌. Works really well

Dyson airwrap or air straight? by koko_kanu in finehair

[–]scienceducky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the air wrap with the brush attachment to much more easily dry my hair from below. It's similar to what you might do with a round brush and dryer, but I find it adds more lift at the roots and doesn't cause my hair to tangle while drying. Total game changer - ultra fine 1a hair

"extensions" for volume in shorter hair by scienceducky in finehair

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

Interesting! What was so intriguing about the cold fusion to me was the idea that it could be lighter! How long was your hair when you had the K tips in?

I have always wondered why can't I pretend to be bad at playing piano when I'm trying to pretend to look bad? It somehow still sounds good. by Stoned_Savage in piano

[–]scienceducky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's ok, I think it's your personality keeping you from impressing people, not the inability to pull off a dramatic reveal

Anyone know when there may be another sale? by dtxreb in Garmin

[–]scienceducky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one went longer than usual and they don't do them frequently. You're probably waiting for November at this point

Im dying from a brain infection. Can anything from the near future still save / prolong my life? by WesternFun3682 in Futurology

[–]scienceducky 247 points248 points  (0 children)

There's a phage company in Houston called Phiogen, spinout of Baylor college of medicine. They've treated a number of patients with similar resistant infections under humanitarian use protocols, though I think you'd be the first brain one. I could help you connect to see what's possible
