Note to James Ashford about his future

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies January 2, 2024

@jelashford James, I see that you followed me. After a bit of tracing, I see some of your interests, not much about your work, and a note you are looking for a job. I do not have any paid open positions now. Suggest you cross-link your pages at https://github.com/JELAshford, https://www.rdm.ox.ac.uk/people/james-ashford, https://twitter.com/jelashford and create a tool

Recording, saving, sharing, recording, validating, supporting global open conversations

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies December 31, 2023

@lmsysorg I like what you are doing. Please find global open formats for saving and sharing results of conversations. Please also consider the future where science technology engineering mathematics computing, finance government and organizations’ (STEMCFGO) objects are shared, merged, compared, filtered, queried, diffused, verified, summarized. And, communities mapped, supported and enabled. @xai @OpenAI @GoogleAI @GoogleDeepMind

Looking at https://hmdb.ca/metabolites?utf8=%E2%9C%93&filter=true&urine=1&filter=true All of them, one example https://hmdb.ca/metabolites/HMDB0000016 All the links under “Alternative Parents” go to “502 Bad Gateway nginx” Looks like everything under “Chemical Taxonomy” are 502 as well pdb and 3D pdb, sdf and 3D sdf, mol and 3D mol all are being given the same extension. I was saving the names
