I don't have a problem with you doing and even sharing whatever cargo culting prompting technique you want to share. My problem starts when you make bold claims like "LLMs can self reflect" and your only evidence is "I a

People really need to understand that your single/double digit dataset of interactions with an inherently non-deterministic process is less than irrelevant. It's saying that global warming isn't real because it was really col

I'm not sure I get this. If it's in my team/department, I'll know about it one way or another. If not ... Why would I care? People come and go, and if we're friends outside of work, we'll have other channels. B

I think you might be confusing sprint review with sprint retrospective? What you describe is the sprint retrospective, and when teams are autonomous enough to actually act on their pain points, it's easily the most useful scrum ceremon

Some of those are obvious, but in a strange "and yet I haven't thought of it that way" way. Some are reasonable advice. "You can dissect a cadaver" was genuinely unexpected. Nothing against specific professional hel

Cool! I'm still on the plantuml train, but I like how much easier mermaid is to integrate with (no need for java), so I'm happy to see it evolve!

by tonnydourado 3y ago
As an avid plantuml user, I don't think it's that simple. Graph layouts help, but it doesn't take long for automatic layouts to start to get in the way of conveying meaning, and that's even with a higher level descriptio

I'm all for evidence based medicine, but I don't think the authors could make me trust them less if they tried. Under all the studies cited and the scientific analysis there's this subtle, yet clear, gnarly conservative disco
