- mgraczyk 1y agoBut then that means they are editing a markdown file on your computer? How is that meant to work? I like the idea but would rather it use Slack or something if it's meant to ask anyone.
- echollama 1y agothis is mainly meant as a way to conversate with the model while you are programming with it. This is not meant to pull questions to a team but more to pair program. a markdown file is best for syntax in an llm prompt and also just easiest to have open and answer questions with. If i had more time and could i would build an extension into cursor.
- mgraczyk 1y agoWhy not have the model ask in the chat? It's a lot easier to just talk to it than open a file. The article mentions cursor so it sounds like you're already using cursor?
- echollama 1y agowould probably work better, this is just how i threw it together as an internal tool a long time ago. i just improved it and shipped it to opensource it.
- krakrum 1y agoBecause i only have 500 requests in my cursor usage plan so if there's a way for claude to ask me questions (e-g missing context) without it taking an entire new request, i'll take. Haven't tried it yet but looking forward to it
- multjoy 1y agoConversate is not a word.
- echollama 1y agoyes it is
- multjoy 1y agoIt is not.
- mikem170 1y agoThe word "conversate" is in the dictionary [1], labelled as "non-standard". That doesn't mean it's not a word. Most people would be able to easily infer its meaning. English is a living language, words come and go. I don't understand the objection. [1] https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/conversate https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/conversate
- multjoy 1y agoBecause it is either laziness, ignorance or AI slop.
- mikem170 1y agoI wouldn't agree that using an understandable word that's in the merriam-webster dictionary is being ignorant or lazy. Nor would I call something AI slop because of a single word, without otherwise engaging with the content. I do genuinely wonder why some people can be so derailed by odd or unfamiliar words and grammar. Are they stressed? Not wanting to engage with a conversation? Trying to assert status or intellectual superiority? Being aggressive and domineering to assuage their self-worth? Perhaps they feel threatened by cultural change? I assume it has something to do with emotional regulation, given that I can't recall bumping into too many mature people who do such things. Might you have any insight to offer?
