Been using tilt as a make alternative for years. Great tooling, even as just file watch + pythonic syntax for running tests, etc. Obvs the real magic is the live syncing patches into remote containers though

this is cool. curious what other examples folks have seen. Probably lots of content creation/management tools in general - figma, github, etc. Any examples of this in lower level devtools? I think of things like K8s as "the real v

this is probably good advice, but seems a little off to use "customer" in an article that feels like its trying to appeal to everyone, not just customers of langchain > If you do use a framework, ensure you understand the under

control is good, and determinism is good - while the primary goal is to convince people "don't give up too much control" - there is a secondary which is: THESE are the places where it makes sense to give up some control

yeah. the issue is when you're baked into a tool stack/framework where you cant go customize in that 1% of cases. A lot of tools try to get the right abstractions where you can "customize everything you would want to"

interesting - I think I have to side with the Boundary (YC W23) folks on this one - if you want bleeding edge performance, you need to be able to open the box and hack on the insides. I don't agree fully with this article https:/

this guide is great, i liked the "chat interfaces are dumb" take - totally agree. AI-based UIs have a very long way to go

Yeah definitely. I think the pattern I see people using most is “start with slow, expensive, but low dev effort, and then refine overtime as you fine speed/quality/cost bottlenecks worth investing in”

cool thing about open source is you can work on whatever you want, and it’s the best way to meet people who do similar work for their day job as well

fair enough. I think switch statement is a broader category for "basic programming primitives that you should just do yourself" - agree big switch statements can be an anti-pattern, e.g. when an interface is clearly better suited

Yeah duplication way better than the wrong abstraction. Just write the dang switch statement

exactly - we keep trying to figure out the right interfaces, but we jump to assume that we know what they are. If we had the right interface, we would set up the black box, and then put holes/knobs on the box to allow anyone to change

i try not to take a hard stance on any tool or framework - the idea is take control of the building blocks, and you can still bring most of the cool LLM ops / LLM observability techniques to bear. I could see one of the twelve factors

THIS so much. People are like "why human supervision when we can have agent supervsion" and always respond > look if you don't trust the LLM to make the thing right in the first place, how are you gonna PROBABLY THE SAME L
