I used 50 leftover o3 credits to test ChatGPT’s vision capabilities on cryptic crossword grids. Pure vision failed; combining vision with code got there. Web app: chatgpt.com/canvas/share... Blog post: www.linkedin.com/pulse/o3-mee...

❤️ CDC's NVSS: It's *amazing* that anyone can download 200MB .zip with ~all 3.6M USA births in 2023, including dozens of row-level attributes to answer questions like "when and how did women deliver, given specific assumptions for age, educational status, BMI?" joshuamandel.com/birth-analysis

This graph shows birth outcomes data after 33 weeks of pregnancy, broken down by delivery method and induction status. The data spans weeks 34-42, with filters for age groups (15-50 years), BMI categories, and education levels.

Key observations:
1. Peak births occur around week 39 (approximately 32% of total births)
2. Most common delivery method is Vaginal Non-Operative (both induced and non-induced)
3. C-section rates are relatively consistent across weeks, with slight increases in later weeks
4. Birth rates drop significantly after week 40

The weekly statistics show a progressive increase in births from week 34 (1.7% of total) to week 35 (2.5%) and week 36 (4.7%), with most deliveries being vaginal non-operative. C-section rates remain relatively low but show slight increases in later weeks.

The graph shows both elective and medically indicated procedures through the color-coding of induced vs. non-induced deliveries for each method.

EHI Export insight: >100 individual users (i.e., provider org staff) contributed to some aspect of my EHI in the past 6 years of ambulatory care. This diagram shows only users & tasks mentioned at least 10 times. (Task labels generated by GPT-4, based on Epic's EHI schema.)

Has someone already written a feed generator that matches user profiles to posts, using a language model to generate scores? It'd work like this... Example input: @jay.bsky.team Transcript: chat.openai.com/share/53e040b9-5b83… Example output: Relevance 9, Quality 8

TFW you open the hotel stairwell door expecting dingy utility vibes and are greeted with a brilliant wall of sunlight.
