   If you want some context about spec-driven development and how it could be used with LLMs I recommend [1]. Having some background like helps me to understand tools like this a bit more. [1] https://www.riaanzoetmulder.com/ar

   In my agent file I explain that I have a static analyzer which generates a callgraph. On starting the agent runs ~/.agent/tools/__callgraph__/generate_callgraph.py It then gets to see callgraph.current.md and upon subseq

   I've been doing something less formal. I stumbled upon Riaan Zoetmulder's free course on deep learning and medical image analysis [1] and found his article on spec-driven development [2]. He adapts the V-Model by specifying three

   I haven’t tried n8n and similar tools but I always had the suspicion that they wouldn’t be that good. Would you say there are scenarios where tools like n8n would be better to use than Python and calling some APIs?

   A free interactive SQL tutorial that will get to the level of being a data analyst. It's Alice in Wonderland themed. I used to be a coding bootcamp instructor, TA and guest lecturer. I've noticed more and more people need to learn

   Seems like a fun growth hacking way to grow Bluesky as well. I made an account just to test it out, haha

   I think if I'd go down memory lane I would come up with quite a lot. But one sticks out immediately. I was in Thailand on a bus, with only Thai people, it was a really local bus. The bus would stop around every 30 miles/50 kilomet

    > it never seemed really practical. IMO this is partially true but that's mostly because not enough people are working on it. If Pharo would have as much people working on it as Python, it'd be practical really quickly. > Ma

    Yea JS code inside the browser has a lot of REPL like functionalities, including a complete debugger to boot!

    This is just my 2 cents. This is why I programmed in Pharo (a Smalltalk descendant) professionally for a while to get that experience [1]. I feel like that using iPython is good enough of an experience to be honest. Could it be better? Sure

    Maybe this shows my data analyst tendencies, but why not use SQL?

    Reminds me a bit of the Seaside framework in Pharo. A lot of the things I programmed in Pharo at my previous employer was a lot of back and forth between front-end and back-end, because the back-end was managing the front-end state. For B2B

    You can argue both sides right? It makes business sense for oil money to do that. However, there's also a trend that giant corporations are kind of like giant oil tankers (no pun intended). It takes a humongous amount of energy to chan

    This post reminds me of something. During my first Introduction to Programming course at university, I was taught Java. One thing that I found very troubling is that it wasn't easy, or possible in many cases, to change the programming

    There's a whole n8n subreddit where people are making customer call/customer agent flows. Think of that what you will but it seems some of them make a profit off of it. So, it must work somewhat?

    I'm currently diving deep in making music (EDM), but this comment makes me feel that I might take a crack at creating my own game. Joining logic and creativity like that sounds like fun!

    I've started to make EDM since 2 weeks ago. I've always wanted to do it and now I finally get to spend some time to do it. I'm having tons of fun.

    I'm currently a data analyst, used to be a software engineer. Weirdly enough I feel that data analysis (programming, visualizing, consulting and presenting) feels a lot related to making music. I think I just see the art of being a dat

    Well this is timely. I just started EDM production as a hobby 2 weeks ago! I did it a long while ago for a bit and it's time to rekindle the music flame. Well, I guess I've always been beatboxing but I'm never aware of that.
