Every arbitrary REPL or program written by an LLM to solve a problem can absolutely become a toolcall that does the same thing. Are you planning to provide hundreds, or thousands, of tools to cover all the possibilities an agent might consi

I think part of the “just use a CLI” crowd might also be building similar agents as ChatGPT and Claude.ai web interface. I know at least 4 teams doing that in one company. All those teams, including ChatGPT and Claude.ai, have figured out t

It seems that cloudflare is trying to create an internet-wide agent identity platform in general. I have seem few attempts at “agent identity” but they were all intrinsically limited to a particular system. An identity AWS IAM assigns to an

What are some examples of what you see coming that requires agent wallets or agent protocols (I’m not 100% sure what that means tbh) or agent cloud services (what makes these different from regular cloud services?) The only thing I see that

I know exactly the persona you’re describing. It’s unfortunate because they have a great learning tool now. I always felt bad for over eager engineers who were not strong. They had the right attitude but I thought lacked the learning resour

In this scenario the answer for me is C. I say “Ask an agent about terms X, Y and Z and it should be able to explain this well for you. Try that and see if it works for you or if you have any follow up questions” However, you have to distin

It’s truly unhinged behavior that has me questioning how much longer I want to remain in the industry. You always knew that 80% of the people on any team or in any large company just didn’t care. But now you see who these people are out in

I deal with this all day long at work and it’s exhausting. People almost acting like no one has thought of it “I asked Claude what happened, and it spit out this 300 line response. Can you read it for me and see if it’s right?” What kills m

Even if you assume OS X is 1999-2016 and macOS is 2016- then the numbers are still odd.

Is my understanding of that graph right? if the periodic change is the weekends, that means the total share percentage of requests from Windows and macOS users drops, while Linux increases in share percentage. Linux traffic is stable regard

Huh, ok. I disagree. Sparkle emoji and beige cream or orange accents every where is definitely AI output, not some “AI features here”. I don’t even see sparkle emoji on any AI websites or “features”. It’s only in sloppy output and most peop

It’s funny how the tides shift. I remember the more dominant online position in the early 2010s being “I don’t want to create yet-another-account for your website. Just let me sign in with my google account”. I’m with you though

You can host your own identity provider. Authentik, Keycloak, authelia or Zitadel work. I don’t fully agree with tailscale’s decision to not want to be an identity provider but I understand it on some level. It simplifies their service grea

Fair point. They also still exist for corporate and business travels. But it’s fair to say the field did get massively disrupted (god I hate that word) because of technology.

I did wonder which one to put that under. It might be it own category of “made by AI company”, but I also think both Anthropic and OpenAI have been vocal about how their codex and Claude code is 100% AI generated But how is AI outputing spa

Agreed. It can also be people who have problems with X for other reasons and like to see X “disrupted” (e.g. a disgruntled grad student who got screwed over by a bad advisor or a hard working and capable office employee who got passed over

Yes, that at least is a valid argument. I do’t really agree with it though. Humans need meaning and purpose in life. Intellectual pursuit is that meaning or purpose for a lot of people. The Educational institutes might change drastically fr

by eddythompson80 2mo ago
The stacked PR pattern long predates LLMs. Yes LLMs make them more common and frequently steer you in that direction. But it’s by no means a new “LLM” thing. In the scenario you described of your team splitting the tickets, this gives you a

Ok, then how do you approve/take the first 2 commits and not the last one? Or how do you insert a commit in between 2 commits or address feedback on a given commit? The person making the change is now going to have to run multiple conf

by eddythompson80 2mo ago
I think plenty of people explained the difference between stacked PRs and individual commits in 1 PR. You’re not wrong, but it’s just a matter of path of least resistance. There is no way to leave a comment on a particular commit in a PR. A

That’s generally in their definition. “Amazon Marketplace” came out in 2000 allowing 3rd party sellers on their platform. However, until maybe the mid 2010s, they favored product sold by Amazon over 3rd party in their results and recommenda
