This is the way.
Fixed the thing.
Fixed the thing for real this time
Ah, but where do you find the training set of all of the human-written good commit messages? 😃
Came to say this. Take my up vote.
I work in bioinformatics and this is the kind of thing I keep trying to communicate to people in the field. Yes, these AI tools (like AlphaFold) are amazing, but if there’s a significant gap in their training data, the AI is going to have that gap too (most of the structures in the protein database were solved via X ray crystallography, which isn’t great for studying highly flexible or disordered proteins)
Yes. My (minimally informed from a single class) understanding is that it sort-of depends on the problem too. Like perhaps in looking at all the data on proteins, the neural network might notice a pattern in protein folding is applicable to the tweaked problem. Of course, there is no guarantee that such a generally applicable rule exists. And even if it does, it might not be discovered by the net before overtraining occurs.
It sounds like your memory from that class is pretty good, and you’re right, it depends on what we’re trying to solve, but the problem in this case is protein folding, so if a neural network spotted a pattern, that’s what we want. Figuring out the generalisable “rules” (i.e. why proteins fold a certain way) isn’t what we’re trying to do with these tools (yet), we’re just on the pattern finding side, which is why the developments from AlphaFold are so incredible, it’s just limited.
It’s articles like this that do my head in https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/one-of-the-biggest-problems-in-biology-has-finally-been-solved/
It feels like my job for the next few years is going to be “professional killjoy”, because I get people’s excitement, but we can’t properly use these tools if we don’t acknowledge their limitations. If we did that, they’d actually become more powerful because we could develop new and different tools, or go gather experimental data to validate some of the generated structures (or to round out the training data).
I don’t know if this would count as overtraining, because it has so far performed amazingly on structures that are similar to the training data but not in the training data. The problem is we don’t have much training data for the tricky parts. That’s fine, it just means it won’t help us learn much about those areas, but headlines like “alphafold predicts the structures of all human proteins” are so misleading
I agree. If you can’t test the structures against proteins that don’t crystalize, then you can’t really say much about the output.
best experimental protocol evar™ do not steal 👍
If it were me I would try to use the generated structures to make predictions. Perhaps get the model to tell you how many residues of a certain AA are on the protein surface, attach some sort of fluorescent marker to all the surface residues in a physical sample, remove the unattached marker from the solution, and then measure the intensity of the emitted light to estimate how many of those residues are actually on the surface of the structure.
Idk if exactly that would work, but it seems like an easier question to test if a protein is consistent with a generated structure. So perhaps you could tell the biologists that the “ball is in their court” to get them off your back 😃 (if it is biologists of course).
Also, I certainly didn’t mean to imply that you could get the pattern the neural net found out of it. Only that that it has in there somewhere if the net is generalizing.
“update”
This scene is pretty ironic today, since the actual dialog was if it could paint a work of art, when art is now (arguably) AIs strongest area of competence
As long as you don’t ask it to draw hands
I’ve seen some hands that aren’t completely nonsense on the stable diffusion subreddit. So there must be some way to do it.
Honestly the most recent versions of stable diffusion are pretty good at hands
I have an alias, git yolo, that does ‘git commit -a’ with a message from whatthecommit.com, and pushes to master. Just add this to your ~/.gitconfiig and you too can live on the edge.
yolo = !git add -A && git commit -m \"$(curl --silent --fail https://whatthecommit.com/index.txt)\"&&git push origin mainEdit: Added the alias.
Beautiful
I did not know about whatthecommit, and I love it! Thank you
“latest changes”
“fix bug”
“commit to save changes”
“minor changes”
The meaningful part of a git commit is the hash
“changed one letter in some comment to redeploy”
#git commit -m “changing something in the source code”
My commit messages are one of the things I am most proud of :) I often spend an hour or more collecting all changes and summarising them well. It takes a bit additional time, but it is so worth it when revisiting commits or wanting to summarise everything from a bigger batch of commits. :)
@pcouy just prepend it with the ticket number.
