Does anyone have good resources into a more practical approach toward building diffusion models? I found the book by Rashka for Building an LLM from Scratch really helpful in understanding a lot of concepts behind LLMs, and I am looking for a similar resource for diffusion models

Finally. For anyone affected by this, I have been using Clouflare WARP successfully to bypass this block.

Checkout stitch.withgoogle.com

It works surprisingly well for designing UIs using AI

You should contact Stripe. My understanding is that the fee is precisely only for converting currency. Since this is not happening in your case it should not apply.

Take a look at:

Depending on your needs they can be more powerful than ag-grid (and free)

This looks great! I am curious about "We expect to monetize in the future by building extra features that serve large companies with complex needs".

During the YC application process, was this enough to be accepted? I wonder how much emphasis they put in the business model in order to fund you. I wish you success!

We tried about 9 years ago :) we even open sourced the solution. At the time we felt there was not a big enough market so we decided to make it open for anyone to build upon our research.

Happy user of dstack.ai. The simplicity of just spinning up a machine with my required set of GPUs and memory, from my vendor of choice, and have an endpoint to easily access it via ssh and VSCode has been game changing for me.

I once had some trouble setting it up and the founder literally went on a zoom chat with me to help navigate through things. Couldnt recommend them enough!!

This is truly an amazing write-up, thank you!! I would love it if someone with experience in the bio lab scene (PCR machines, electrophoresis, western blot, pipettes, cell incubator, and so on) could write something similar.

oliverx0 — Sat, 18 Feb 2023 10:22:59 +0000

The treatment works on the child without symptoms because in most cases neurological affections are irreversible. Since the child had not developed them, the therapy would essentially fix the body before it caused them.

In the case of the child who already shows neurological symptoms, the treatment can help stop the progression of the disease, but most likely not reverse the already existing damage. However, there are already treatments approved to help stop the progression of the disease, including enzyme replacement therapy (provide the enzyme in charge of degrading the sustrate through the bloodstream every so often).

Some would argue that if treatments with similar outcomes already exist and are approved, it could be unethical to test this experimental treatment on a patient (I disagree).

And they are nowhere near as liquid when it comes to employment as in the US. The trade off of not having employment at will is extremely slow hiring processes and a lot of difficulty when firing employees that do not perform well. All in all employment at Will is probably what makes Silicon Valley thrive. Otherwise nobody would dare to start a company.

Curious if this would work:

If you are in the US, try contacting google by every possible venue and keep a track / paper trail of your communications. If non of these methods work, then sue them in a small claims court. This is something for which you do not need a lawyer, and you can get up to $3000. They will probably take you seriously enough to try to solve it without going to court.
