Why does this comment appear every time someone complains about CoT becoming more and more inaccessible with Claude? I have entire processes built on top of summaries of CoT. They provide tremendous value and no, I don't care if "

Forget personal, some of my git repos aren't even "developer", or have a single line of code in them.

Backblaze is such a weird case. On one hand, it became the most trusted personal backup provider on reddit and HN, on another - their software is absolute junk, and as some comments in this thread are highlighting - even their restore can&#

It's pretty bad. The enterprise drives I bought a year ago for under $300 are now either out of stock, or priced above $600 with limited stock.

You can still do all of this. With tmux. Nothing anthropic can do about that. Gemini cli is horrible though.

I think opus does in fact, find the bugs the same way GPT xhigh (or even high) does. It just discards them before presenting to the user. Opus is designed to be lazy, corner-cutting model. Reviews are just one place where this shows. In m

I believe framework is simply never, ever going to work for LLM-based agentic workflows. Framework is simply way too rigid for a non-deterministic technology. We may see libraries that provide tools for managing agents, but then again, ther

I left my last company job just before "AI-first engineering" became mainstream, and you confirmed what I was feeling all this time - I have absolutely zero idea how teams actually manage to collaborate with LLM-managed projects.

Agreed, but it's a bit nuanced. I'm working on a fairly complex project now in a domain where I have no technical experience. The first iteration of the project was complete garbage, but it was garbage mainly because I asked for t

What is the automated verification of correct output and who defines that? But before verification, what IS correct output? I understand SWE process is unique in that there are some automations that verify some inputs and outputs, but this

I think failures that I observed with gemini are unrelated to the harness. Because the same failures happened with third party harnesses too.

Tried Gemini 2 weeks ago to see where it's at, with gemini-cli. Failed to use tools, failed to follow instructions, and then went into deranged loop mode. Essentially, it's where it was 1.5 years ago when I tried it the last time.

I chuckle every time <insert any LLM company here> says something in line of "the model is so good that we won't release it to general public, ekhm, because safety". Because the exact same thing has been said on every s

That probably matters for some scenarios, but I have yet to find one where thinking tokens didn't hint at the root cause of the failure. All of my unsupervised worker agents have sidecars that inject messages when thinking tokens match

The problem with specs for me is always with boundaries. How many specs do you have for a complex project? How do they reference each other? What happens when requirements cross boundaries? And finally, how do you address spec drift?

I've noticed this too, but not necessarily type checkers, but more with linters. And can't really figure out if there's even a way to solve it. If you set up restrictive linters and don't explicitly prohibit agents from

Oh no. I pay for it, not antigravity, but gemini-cli. The limits and response times are laughable. Remove branding and you'd think it's served by some hobbyist on a homelab server, not Google

I'm curious, what does your workflow look like? I saw a plan prompt there, but no specs. When you want to change something, implement a new feature etc, do you just prompt requirements, have it write the plan and then have it work on i

It's full VM or nothing. I want AI to have full and unrestricted access to the OS. I don't want to babysit it and approve every command. Everything that is on that VM is a fair game and the VM image is backed up regularly from out

To this day, nobody has proven any subsidization is actually taking place. The only "proof" is comparing subscription with API prices, but that's comparing two very different products. Unrestricted enterprise APIs always cost

I'd also go even further and say that you likely should never install ANY skill that you didn't create yourself (i mean, guided claude to create it for you works too), or "forked" an existing one and pulled only what you
