Haven't built anything on the agent skills platform yet, but it's pretty cool imo. On Android the sandbox loads an index.html into a WebView, with standardized string I/O to the harness via some window properties. You can eve

It's not that the context window is adequate, but rather an agentic LLM can search the source of truth using appropriate tools (SQL, term search, etc.) RAG made sense when the semantic search was based on human input and happening as a

Living here the decline is tangible. And this is West Oxfordshire; not one of the poorer parts of the country. An example in microcosm: a local village suffered road flooding due to failed maintenance of water pipes. Our rent-seeking privat

Having seen a family member die absolutely horrifically in a matter of weeks due to late-diagnosed pancreatic cancer, I'd consider suicide if I got the same diagnosis.

Always wondered if dreaming is some kind of daily memory consolidation function. Logged short-term/episodic memory being filtered and the important bits baked by replaying in a limited simulacrum.

I'm copacetic to the notion we're not at enterprise codebase level (yet), but everyone who still thinks agentic coding stops at React CRUD apps needs to update their priors. I needed a poc RAG pipeline to demo concepts to other te

I still manually approve tool use requests at the start of a run. As it gets deeper in I might allow it to run safer commands without that oversight (e.g. writing to local text files), but potentially destructive execution still requires ap

Possibly Codex, but I've only used Claude Code so far. Worth pointing out I'm not SSHing to a different device. Claude Code installed and running directly in Android terminal on my phone. I've built ASP.NET Core APIs on-devic

This is how I do mobile device coding. Android terminal w. git and gh installed and authenticated. Claude manages the feature branching and PR process; I review the PR in the GitHub mobile app.

I'm using the Android terminal and Claude Code to vibecode on the go. Or rather, as a fairly boring father of two, when I'm tied up in the necessary chores of family life - cooking and cleaning. Nothing as complicated as this - ju

Wow, that's brilliant. Can't help but think your script unlocked this. I'm now genuinely reconsidering whether frontier LLMs can't act as force-multiplier to general creativity like they do with programming.

Whitehall - the UK civil service - persists between governments in a fairly unique way. It's essentially a political entity that exists beyond democracy that has pinky-promised to be politically ambivalent. To paraphrase an adage I

I'm confident you could build one of these in an IF engine like Inform, but the offering is fundamentally different. These books are essentially compressed TRPG experiences where the gamemaster's actions are encoded into the "

I've literally just started replaying/rereading these with my 9yo son. It's been eye opening. A book that allows you to _do things_ is finally a challenge to the allure of the tablet and the Switch.

YouTube music being included effectively replaces an additional music streaming service. From that perspective the family oriented plans in particular carry a lot of value.

This tracks with my career - highly goal oriented and highly stressful until I sacked it all off for a less intense, more code-focused role a couple of years ago. What I will say is that the previous decade of goal-driven learning has given

There is a quiet poetry to GPT1 and GPT2 that's lost even in the text-davinci output. I often wonder what we lose through reinforcement.

At least one in my opinion. None of these studies are designed to be capable of tracking "success" across a society. There's this wide belief that the plebescite will emergently produce great cultural works if they're fr

There's a middle ground for sure. I've left a few witty comments and loglines in my time. But I've also had to debug a Delphi unit which returned error codes inspired by the magical supercomputer Hex from the Discworld novels

Your upper band of 30C is making this Englishman sweat just thinking about it. Which I think proves your point about narrow operational temperature even further.

This is fine. Text is some of the most free information on the Internet. And I am small enough to be unencumbered by licensing concerns.
