If the agent generates structured JSON checked against a schema, then (to the limit of the ability of the agent to not generate correct JSON) the trick here is to have the transition request include a non-optional jira-update field. The age

I’ve been using a pattern similar to this with near-frontier models to solve problems harder than coding. Structurally things are even more extreme — no tool calling allowed. Each state gives structured output that the harness then uses to

We can call them crypto. Won't make any less sense than the current usages, and it's a really good indicator to stop listening.

How is "I don't like the price of the readily-available vendor or third-party repair services" the "same" as "no repair is available for any price from the vendor or third parties"?

I believe that both of those statements are true. Nonetheless, I and other posters are experiencing one here and can't read the article. Your valid anecdote does not help us.

What's the cost of this in terms of not being able to bzero() simple data structures, or use OS-cleared pages directly without dirtying them? This seems like it would turn some sparse memory usage patterns dense…

I don't know if there are people who treat turquoise and aqua as distinct, but I certainly treat them as distinct from blue (azure, cobalt) and green. Several of the colors around the mid range in the linked page are not colors I would

I think you're (accidentally?) hitting on exactly the point there. For some people's language usage, blue and green are adjacent colors, and thus defining a point that divides them is perfectly fine. For other people, these are no

The other classic approach has been a single camera under the table, but that conflicts with terrain use. mmWave radar is probably good enough for to localization at this point, and cheap, but distinguishing pieces is hard.

It’s funny, I’ve never installed any of the apps because I figured if, with all their engineering, they can’t even build a usable website, why would I trust their native code?

Two options: continue to spend the effort to teach new cohorts community expectations; or eliminate the production of new cohorts so the existing lessons eventually saturate the population. The second approach may have side effects.

Is this true? Paper (and I assume papyrus) expands and contracts with varying humidity even below the saturation point, and this motion embrittles and cracks it, no? So consistent humidity is key, and "consistently dry" is much mo

Not all communication has positive value. 99.9% of the e-mail I receive not only has no value in itself, but the overhead of managing it, ignoring it, and categorizing it is highly negative -- and decreases the value of the valuable e-mail

I still think the missing opportunity with e-mail was for the USPS (back in the US-dominant internet days) to take a leading role and implement "e-stamps." Provide a subscription service that managed a per-user account, cost a 1¢

Fair, if you’re paying per token (at comparable rates to other customers) I wouldn’t expect this behavior from a competent company.

Isn’t this the optimal behavior assuming that at times the service is compute-limited and that you’re paying less per token (flat fee subscription?) than some other customers? They would be strongly motivated to turn a knob to minimize toke
