The way I see this (I havent played around with Jev or layla the OSS version) is that classifiers have always existed and a recognised tool in the ML world. But, the norm is that one needs to not only know what to classify as, but determine

As is with any engineering… a key skill is knowing which tool to use when and for what. There will always be people who push the extreme limits of either way. “I will not use AI for anything!” Vs “I will vibe code this while I’m at the gym”

+1 my last 2 months…. It begins as “let’s give the agents a kanban board to track stuff”. Then, why not have one agent do the tracking while another does the development? Then why not have a fleet of them - specialists doing their thing? T

The single input box with different prefixes for actions - @people, #call, - todo etc is very nice. I wish I could have such a powerful input box in my Home Screen. iPhone or even a trimmed down android with such an interface would be cool.

Perhaps.. But, it was enough for a customer like me who tried them at good faith to walk away and find their competitors.. I like the diversity of LLMs as of today and prefer to not tie myself to one big plan with any vendor. If they don’t

Not to digress from the core argument of Claude vs GLM being open weights…. I have both plans. Claude monthly €20 and Z’s €18 monthly. Running GLM-5.3 high on their monthly plan will hit quotas absurdly fast compared to Opus 5 High on Claud

I feel like there is a bizarro world I’m not privy to…. I cannot relate to this story as a Dad of a 7 year old.. 1. Dad setting his son up on YouTube with his own channel at 9! 2. Proceeding to tell him about the creepy world of ads and tar

I will say how it was life-changing for me getting diagnosed as 39M. The quick answer: Understanding neurobiology and the meta-cognition about the why of certain behavioural patterns and experiences is extremely helpful to just calm down an

Which tool is it that got you comfortable? I’ve been resisting setting up another tool because it means more digression for my ADHD brain. It sounds you managed to contain the tinkering and got to the usefulness part. That’s why I’m curiou

I’ve been thinking about this.. the same idea behind Dynamic cheat sheets paper and the ACE paper. Thanks for those links! Nice to see those ideas academically studied. My problem is the context of today’s models (that I’ve been using - Cla

Sample of 1… I downgraded my Claude subscription and delegated my Claude Opus access to serve the role of an Architect to brainstorm and plan every step of development. I leave the development to Deepseek. Claude gets to review at many laye

We were contemplating just this as a lunch time conversation among few engineers. Why can’t we have a sort of internal currency in the company and let teams use it as their “budget” to get things done? Infra team’s budget is broken up by t

Wikis start out good, but get stale too quick and become useless or worse confusing. I’ve experienced this over and over again to strongly believe it. I genuinely wonder if throwing LLMs at this problem would solve it at least to some exten

It was easy to be a rebel and use Linux when it was clearly competent, but needed hacks and extra elbow grease to get it polished for use. IME, the open models are “not there yet” in terms of capability or operational needs. Sure, GLM5.2 lo
