This is fun. Some feedback: - I didn’t notice that much difference between the levels of obnoxiousness. Essentially the higher levels seemed to be more confident but contain the same ideas. - All of them are very short, which means there’s

Hmm, I want to add my own files. This is because in my workflow I often turn to the web UI in order to get a fresh context. I do like the idea of letting the model ask for source code. It’s all about attention / context.

I’ve almost finished an interactive file selector inspired by git add interactive, with the addition of a tree display. I’m giving myself the option to output collated code to a file, or copy it to clipboard, or just hold onto it for the ne

I’ve been playing with it and I don’t like it that much? I’m not sure why. It feels a little buggy and like it’s doing too much.

Well, make them fire you, so that you get severance. And keep a papertrail documenting how you were told over and over to do things that made no sense to the company’s bottom line.

The point is there are multiple "natural prices" that the market price may gravitate around. If Adam Smith thinks there's only one "natural price", then he's wrong, and you probably want to read with that idea
