We have been running a lot of agentic benchmarks with the various loops and tool calls on longer threads - we routinely see 90%+ Just checking now: recent runs tau3[1] was at 96% and toolathlon[2] was at 90% [1] https://www.induc

I've been spending all my time recently thinking about LLM costs. From that, I am currently of the mind that the most interesting question is if they can get it to work in the first place. After that, like with "performance"

A blast from the past. When Taskrabbit was acquired by IKEA, I built several tools that went through the whole catalog via various crawling approaches. One tool was to estimate how long it would be to put each item together for an initial t

I am excited about the Rails defaults where background and cache and sockets are all database driven. For normal-sized projects that still need those things, it's a huge win in simplicity.

We have to work on the scaling. There is lots of web scraping and LLM calls that we need to make sure works under load. I'm sure there will be quality improvements as well.

AMA: I was on the team that built the AI Assist functionality. Happy to chat about it. I became obsessed with documentation sites for a while there.

Just came to say, I still think this is the best balance between the many factors of running a dev team. I keep trying to recreate it in every tool I use.

Airbyte acquired our Reverse ETL company, Grouparoo, 1.5 years ago. There is so much to solve making just the Extract and Load work well and so much value that comes from that, we have been busy there. I'm excited to circle back to pub

Maybe some day this will be available in JSON. I built a system for TaskRabbit that scraped all the IKEA products from a variety of sources and ran algorithms to determine their category and predict how long they would take to be assembled.

From the Grouparoo team, we are so excited to be working with Airbyte to be able to move data anywhere you want it to go.

Congrats to the Castled team on the launch. At Grouparoo, this is a primary use case. We have a UI that engineers use locally. This helps gets things right. It outputs a JSON configuration that is checked in. When that is deployed, it does

It's hard to leave the comparisons dangling, for sure. But I'll defer for now. Congrats on the launch :-)

There are probably some nuances one level down. Things our users have told us they can do in these areas that, to my knowledge, Hightouch doesn't do: * Combine data from different sources to define a model. We'v seen using Postgre

Congrats on the launch! Hightouch looks great and this need is real. Things seem to be going well, so I don't think I'm taking too much away by mentioning that we have been been working on Grouparoo, an open source alternative tha

Here was my attempt several years ago that used reveal.js https://github.com/bleonard/jekyll-slides I found it useful to have notes as well that showed up when presenting on the other screen.

It's certainly not production situation, but I quickly made this [1] a while back to help with "watching" certain queries for debugging. It uses a polling approach. [1] https://github.com/grouparoo/db_wat

It's open source and free. We're still figuring out the paid offering. Add yes, it is hard :-) My experience is that a "contact us" button for a startup is just as likely to be and MVP test as it is to be some nefarious

We can use any query to bring in and are considering various ways to process it after that. That's in the near term roadmap. The main kind of "processing" that's done now is using all these properties to calculate cohort

There are usual suspects for sources. Databases (MySQL, Postgres) and data warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, RedShift). Though data out is more common, we can also bring in data from any given SaaS tool as well. For example, we have a Mailchi

We were on Hacker News a few months back. Since then, developers have been using the UI to set up automated data movement from their databases to Mailchimp, Marketo, Salesforce, and more. But we also heard that they wanted it more like thei
