Anyone have a good GHA yaml for making claude's code review more like codex? (Less fluff, less compliments!) The below doesn't seem to have done the trick

My own last, unreturned, correspondence with GISAID, after a months-long project building a version of Taxonium that would run within the walled garden (the dispute was over whether it could link out to e.g. the source code)

But with the "fair use" you're framing things in legal terms, which we all seem to agree is not an issue in the case you are concerned about above.

Another plug for the excellent ourbike.co.uk, which just helped me finish up a move. Cargo bikes across London for £5 per hour.

The summary sounds about right to me, and is also the message I got from the article

In "thinking mode" it generates a chain of "thoughts" [words] before answering "thinking through" the options so the response takes a few seconds to start but makes the right moves

yep, here I used the open-source model (so significantly less good) in order to be confident it wasn't running any code behind the scenes. last screenshots are sections of the "reasoning" trace [which is hidden in chatgpt]

In the first layer of the network, the model needs to encode each amino acid into a numerical space. I constrained that space to be two-dimensional and what one ended up getting was an embedding a bit like the plot below - with axes representing polarity and size.

Claude Code has got a lot more likely to refuse basic bioinformatic tasks recently (presumably due to dual-use concerns)
