I was working in an env where I started to suspect that people I was chatting with were using LLMs. These were people that didn't want to talk to me either way, so there was not much lost here. I suspected that, because the technical e

Yes :D In Poland you would just say Hej! = I acknowledge you being there but I don't want to chat. But again, back to the point I was trying to make - the intent behind these sort of questions (and answers) can be cultural

Brits will either say "Fine, thanks" or not respond at all. Poles will tell you that yesterday they went to visit their relatives, and now they're tired, or that their cat is sick, or that they having problems with something.

I'd appreciate if they'd not mark the incident as resolved when there's still fallout - ie: my commits didn't display on the branch, my actions didn't run It's the same issue as the other day - display message

It might be cultural as well; I'm Polish and living in UK made me change my habits of answering "How are you?" questions. Same with Dutch from my experience - there are cultures where people say what's on their mind with

I think that this not only applies to languages, but general patterns that you use. Don't mix functional with OO. Don't mix repositories with DAOs. Don't mix MVC and MVVM. Code should be predictable in what it does and what y

Client network timeout shouldn't result in 500. With 408 and retry you should, dependent on the business criteria, get either an upsert (transaction is retried) or 422 (validation that given entry already exists). Even if it's &qu

That will not work - you end up with Claude being ADHD and not following any guidelines. Skills do work, as they ground the agent with constrained context for the task it's performing

That's the model I've arrived to as well: - first I've created a skill how the architecture of the system should look like - I'll tell the LLM to follow the guidelines; it will not do that 100%, but it will be good enoug

Can't you regex that given string contains just numbers and then use any of the provided methods? Then check if the returning value is a number to cater for edge cases Ok, having a method to do that for you would be nice, but the post
