Where is this setting in Perplexity?


They call it spaces, so when you create a "Space" on Desktop at least, you look on the right hand corner for the three dots, next to the Share button, and click "Settings":

> Give instructions to Perplexity to customize how answers are focused and structured.

You type into that box, now every space you make can have a fully custom "pre-prompt" as I call it.

I only just started using Perplexity, they really need to rework their UI a little bit.


Some of these imaging that are overdone in India involve radiation: the most problematic being (not low dose) CT. So there is a rationale for controlling these modalities.


Fastmail and HEY email, Kagi, 1Password, Newsblur, Perplexity, Wolfram (Mathematica), Zotero, Dropbox, Backblaze, Microsoft Office, Raindrop.io, Wachete (track changes on webpages)

I also pay for Google but that’s just ransom for my data held hostage by them because I have shared that email address with many.


It’s called kagi.com


Tangential but I just went to Kagi.com to check their pricing and I was astonished to see that:

- The "Monthly" option is selected by default.

- If you click "Yearly", it tells you the actual full yearly price without dividing it by 12.

That's so rare and refreshing that I'm tempted to sign up just out of respect.


and if you stop using it for a little while they just paused your account automatically.


Whoa. That’s amazing!


I've been using kagi maybe a year now, and it is great. I know it is great because every so often I jump on someone else's computer for a task and have to search so.ething and I'm completely overwhelemed by what comes up.



Yandex, the only search engine that doesn't censor searches for torrents.


I'll take the lesser evil over the greater. The main concern I'm aware of is that Yandex kills people. Google kills more people than Yandex, by whichever metric you use, so I'll take the lesser evil.is the lesser evil here.

The other concern I saw is that they might deliver pro-Russia propaganda. If that happens, I'll trust Kagi to firewall them appropriately. Google also intentionally delivers geopolitical propaganda.


WTF? Thanks for the notice.


Kagi is nice but it just seems so expensive for what it is. I get that search that actually shows me what I want is expensive but I would want to use this as a family plan and I think we would go through the lower paid tiers pretty quickly.


The AI summaries are what made me switch. I don't love the idea of using Google products for all the obvious reasons, but they had good UX so that's what I kept using. Enter the AI summaries which made Google search unusable for me, and I was more than happy to pay Kagi


They did “pay” $14B to the CEO of ScaleAI. $100M sounds plausible, relatively.


Is it just me, or does Mr. Wang give grifter/charleton vibes. Like I get you don't hand 14bb and positions like this to 28 year olds for nothing. He seems like a really good salesperson mostly, which sometimes give me pause. However, I'm sure Meta needs excellent sales people... for 14bb though? Like did Meta really need labeling/training infra? Idk, the whole deal is weird to me.


Can’t wait to have 3D “personalized” ad billboards follow me everywhere and “pause” my walking directions until I watch a 30-second unskippable commercial. The VR glasses future is exciting no doubt: too bad however that it is being ushered in by two surveillance, I mean, advertising companies (Google and Facebook).


Reverse “They Live” except we’ll willfully wear the glasses with great enthusiasm


That’s not what has been happening with DiscovEHR and Regeneron Genetics Center data.


So far


Still doesn’t work for me.


Harvard affiliated hospitals are dependent on NIH funding for survival. Wonder if they are included in the scope of this.


NIH falls under HHS, and the HHS acting general counsel was a signatory on the original letter.

That said, affiliated hospitals are not owned or operated by Harvard.

The affiliates could be pushed to drop their affiliation if NIH wanted to play hardball with Harvard.


According to NYT, “ of the $9 billion in federal funding that Harvard receives, with $7 billion going to the university’s 11 affiliated hospitals in Boston and Cambridge, Mass., including Massachusetts General, Boston Children’s Hospital and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.”


Given how late in the article it is mentioned that the drug was indistinguishable from placebo, this NYT article may well have been commissioned by Vertex.

> Side effects of suzetrigine reported by patients were similar to the ones reported by those taking the placebo

If this is what you're referring to, note the article is talking about the side effects.

Not trying to say I'm for/against the drug, just wanted to point a possible incorrect conclusion.


My impression is that the "indistinguishable from placebo" is only in reference to a study on people with Sciatica, but that a different study did show a statistically-significant effect on post-surgical pain.

$465 USD for a 15-day supply definitely pricey -- but options for people who weren't well-served by Purdue Pharma / OxyContin seem good, especially if the mechanism of action is different.
