I am not so sure about 'lots of people' died causation. Eg I don't think we'll see a babyboom after the war in Ukraine ends. And just look at the interwar years themselves: lots and lots of people died in World War I, b

Alas, yes. (Though compare the Anarchistische Pogo Partei Deutschlands.) Of course, these wannabe guys use the proper fraktur. They usually use the wrong s and don't care about proper ligatures.

Not sure. I usually tell the agent to spawn subagents at will. (And they are doing that on their own anyway.)

(Not the original commenter.) You can rack up quite a lot of tokens if you ask it to try out a lot of things, eg for performance investigations and trying out optimisation ideas.

Yes. Compare also https://www.khoury.northeastern.edu/home/cmartens/Courses/74... where the abstraction itself mechanically enforces certain guarantees and contracts.

Yes, apprenticeships are an interesting model. And in practice, whether formalised or not, it's how a lot of professions are taught to this day: as an example compare what they teach at university vs what you actually need on the job
