I think this is exactly why microservices will rise sharply. As AI-assisted coding grows, the natural push will be toward smaller, well-bounded contexts where both humans and AI can operate more effectively.

I think this can be easily implemented with the Distill Web Monitor browser extension [1]. Just monitor the post listing page, set a CSS selector for the post titles, and add a text condition (e.g., "Awesome Blog Post Series"). Fr

Is there any value in using XML elements to guide the model instead of simple text (e.g., "Recommendation criteria:")?

IDK. Probably the model's doing some mental gymnastics to figure that out. I was surprised they haven't taught it to count yet. It's a well-known limitation.

Stop asking LLMs to count! Text is broken into tokens in training (subword/multi-word chunks) rather than individual characters; the model doesn’t truly "see" letters or spaces the way humans do. Counting requires exact, step

Hi Michael Kureth (?). This brings a whole new dimension to the conversation; one that deserves much more attention. I could quote your reply here to my blog post, like I did with edit #1. It'll make it much more visible. Let me know i

I'm the owner of the repo. Thank you for posting this. Many people here (and elsewhere) complain about the "curation" method I used, which is based on simple algorithmic rules instead of a subject matter expert curation. I to
