I work with Python, Node and Go and I don't think any of them have great package systems. Go has an amazing module isolation system and boy do I wish hiding functions within a module/package was as easy in Python as it is in Go. W

I would argue that "good enough" means that it doesn't add inconvenience or significant cost, but I know what you're talking about. That is the flip-side of it though, there is already so much non-AI garbage that it some

I think it depends a lot on what you're trying to get them to do and what you're working on. I don't really buy into the whole "prompt engineering" part. I use agents quite a lot, but they have limitations. They exc

In my world that isn't inherently a bad thing. Granted, I belong to the YAGNI crowd of software engineers who put business before tech architecture. I should probably mention that I don't think this means you should skip on safety

Not necessarily, you can task the AI Agent with writing your tool without the use of external dependencies. Often the tool itself will be absolutely horrible, but this doesn't matter if the output of the tool is fine. As in the case of
