I'm struggling with how this much logging information could be generated at any level of verbosity. Is codex writing log entries while it's sitting idle? Why would someone want to look at these logs?

I've been able to avoid this kind of markdown library architecture with very chatty tool feedback. Interaction with a responsive environment is much better than static chunks of "skill" text. For example, imagine a domain con

I agree this is entirely theatrical. There is much stronger IDV technology than this, but it isn't as consistent across the customer base. You would have a significantly more difficult time defeating something like Chexsystems with fak

My approach is to queue up for a FAF lobby before I start a work sprint. Being interrupted from my tasks by the loading screen is always a pleasant surprise.

If you work backward from the schema these sorts of things tend to evaporate before they can become a problem. Some of the biggest rabbit holes come from naming conventions not aligning across the business and technology silos. If everyone

I think Overwatch and League of Legends are the best examples of this effect. Both games are entirely unrecognizable today compared to 2016. Somehow Starcraft 2 emerged from the other side of esports mostly unscathed, despite being arguably

I think this mostly depends on your business model. In my client's business, the idea of having all their customer knowledge contained in one global scope is a fantasy, not a fear. I suppose if you were granting access to users outside

You definitely need multiple paths. It's not one vs the other. The data warehouse is immutable to the agent. There are separate tools that handle any updates to business state.

The most important part is the database that the agent can see and how clean the data is. I pitched a custom enterprise agent to a client thinking it would be maybe 50/50 time on data vs agent tuning, but it's more like 99/1.

I like to use wildlife as a proxy for the quality of a location. If you can see things like rabbits and squirrels on a regular basis, you are probably doing reasonably ok. I have to put up fences and other barriers or the deer will eat ever

WebView2 can be a fantastic experience when the application is designed around it with intent. It can't be a technological afterthought. Taking an application that was designed for web and throwing it in a desktop shell is how you wind

I recommend dehumidification over chemicals. It's much simpler and way more thorough. It also suppresses pests like silverfish. Allergies probably much better too. If you can keep your home under 45% RH, mold simply cannot grow. You&#x

> a lack of freedom > ~300nm feature size Can you point to a specific regulation that prevents me from crafting shitty semiconductors in my shed? I am pretty sure there are entire YouTube channels dedicated to this.

When trying to apply these ideas to other problems, the advantages offered by biological concepts almost always seem to be more than compensated by the computational difficulty of implementing them. Gathering 100x more bits per iteration is

I've used git+LFS for unity projects without much issue. If I was working with more than 2 people, I would definitely reach for something centralized.

I've got a machine in a corner collecting dust that cost me $12k to build 2 years ago. It runs fine but it's wildly impractical to use as a daily driver (loud/hot). I keep it as a reminder to not do this again. At my current

It's a custom agent loop. There are no other parties involved here. Just vanilla C#/.NET and the OpenAI DLL.

by bob1029 5mo ago
The tool itself enforces the constraint. This is deterministic. If an agent tries to read a big fat file in root, it gets an error from that tool's implementation that reiterates the requirement. I don't bother warning it in the s
