It might! In my prompt, I'm supposing you have some priors here about what's possible. Try saying something like "materially faster". But you need to also make sure it knows how to measure that endpoint's performanc

It's just a way of defining what "done" means, and passing off evaluation of whether "it's done" is true to a separate context and/or model. If false, it prompts the original context accordingly.

I didn't realize that re-timestamped comments . That's a pretty unexpected behavior, if true. I wouldn't like if that happened to a comment I left - a lot can happen in a week.

The concern usually only comes when you fall on the "outside" of the prevailing opinion within the group of people voting on comments. edit: my response isn't about lobste.rs. I don't have an account there.

This isn't just measuring the speed of tokens that are written to a file (code). Your human partner is thinking a lot faster than 5 tok/s.

I would expect that it does, as well as some of the other directives I've seen in this thread ("never repeat the question"). It's one thing to tell it to do that in outputs , but I wouldn't at all be surprised to f

I have, but it's definitely very rare. And might have been manual intervention as described above.

I agree with that, the ones I see flagged are frequently espousing viewpoints I disagree with. But they should be debated then, and flagging them denies everyone that opportunity.

Happy to find and email you some when I'm at my desk. (I'm well aware of the genAI policy, and very supportive of it.)

The anti-AI crowd on Steam only really seems to care about it being used for art, from what I've seen in reviews.

I believe we're in a fairly limited window of time right now where that's even detectable via tools like Pangram. For small models it'll, maybe not the case. But for anything worth paying for.

A smarter approach (progressive disclosure) for tools has been implemented by (I presume all) the harnesses over recent months, but you're 100% right in any case. I enable tools specific to each project only in that project , and have

I'm unclear who you're arguing with. I don't fly GA and I live under the approach to a GA airport, which is why I'm well-read on this subject.

Correct. For others reading this though: virtually all piston-engine GA aircraft in the US today are still burning 100LL (leaded), and there are nearly 200,000 of them actively flying. There is a timeline to transition to UL, but very low c
