As someone who would be in a position to advise enterprises on whether to adopt Frontier, there is simply not enough information for me to follow the "Contact Sales" CTA. We need technical details, example workflows, case studies,

People really seem to believe that code is the only thing you need to make a SaaS company. It's like thinking a line cook is all you need to open a restaurant. There are so, so many other components to running a business.

“Human directing an agent” will become the dominant paradigm. We’ll still be in the loop, but there is no need for me to go to five different websites to look up basic information and synthesize the answer a simple question.

I wouldn't say it was oneshotted, but it did produce a working MVP in one Plan execution. Meaning, I went back & forth a few times about requirements, it built a plan, and then CC spent just under 15 minutes writing the code. Once

Oh interesting—how do you find OpenCode vs CC? I'll check it out. And I'll try to get a version of this assistant in a form I could share publicly.

This is really awesome. I want to give my agent access to basic coding tools to do text manipulation, add up numbers, etc, but I want to keep a tight lid on it. This seems like a great way to add that functionality!

A lot of the system prompt, skills and tools center around my specific needs (I manage separate IMAP and Gmail inboxes, use Granola, and have iCloud calendars). And there are some hard assumptions baked in (I want to have a morning & af

Yeah, I looked at Clawdbot / OpenClaw at the beginning of the week (Monday), but the token use scared me off. But I was inspired to use Claude Code to create my own personal assistant. It was shocking to see CC bang out an MVP in one P

Benchmarks measure what they measure. But your subjective experience also matters.

Good-faith answer: I can't be certain. But I've been using CC since its release, and Cursor before that (and actually going all the way back to GPT3 to do codegen in the Playground). After getting used to the CC workflow, the way

This is probably entirely down to subtle changes to CC prompts/tools. I've been using CC more or less 8 hrs/day for the past 2 weeks, and if anything it feels like CC is getting better and better at actual tasks. Edit: Befor

It seems to depend on FlashAttention, so the short answer is no. Hopefully someone does the work of porting the inference code over!

It's always valuable to have a generalizable skill. But design is fundamentally a craft; an applied art. It's problem-solving. And like any craft, there are tools and techniques that are tried and true. You could approach woodwork

I practiced Design Thinking at IDEO for 10 years, and I can assure you it's not "one size fits all." And you can onboard an intern or a client CEO in days, without requiring them to internalize a very abstract system for deco

Foundation model sponsors already pay humans to generate authentic content, especially in technical areas that are underrepresented in general internet scrapes. I would imagine that this trend will continue. Further, the "model collaps

Design Thinking (and more broadly, human-centered design) is a pragmatic framework for doing product design in an effective and productive manner. Systems Thinking is a massively more general superset. I'm not really sure how you'

I strongly believe that users will start to demand proof of humanity (and related things like content credentials on photos/videos), and eventually filter out anything that isn't verified. Through great expense and loss of privacy

"Commingling" is such a great euphemism for fraudulent counterfeiting. I can't count the number of times I've ordered a book from Amazon (1st party, Amazon as the seller) and received an obvious counterfeit, with fuzzy t

Yes, in Amazon's world, the star rating is for the product. Which is especially confusing on product pages with vastly different variants.

This seems like a predictable pendulum swing. I love AI, but I also love the phenomenon of people turning more toward IRL and tangible activities. Anecdotally, I have friends who have recently bought turntables out of the blue and gotten in

I'm assuming this is in the context of an agent that can see what it's doing. And I wouldn't assume humans have a monopoly on judging leading.

The Claude Code model highlights the power of simple search (grep) and selective reads (only reading in excerpts). The only time I vectorize is when I explicitly want to similarity-based searching, but that's actually pretty rare.

> Vocabulary is just the surface. Yes, but with LLMs, sometimes simply mentioning the right words is enough to prime the model in the direction you want to take it. If you start a prompt talking about leading and type pairings, it will t

Honestly it sounds like they went above and beyond. Does this solve the trifecta, or is the network still exposed via connectors?

Honestly lack of true multithreading (without the Web Worker hack) is the biggest downside for me. Every major project I work on needs the concept of a main thread for UI and a separate thread for processing.

Looks interesting, but operator overloading is an anti-pattern. Leading with that is like leading with "full support for null pointers."

Now just get Claude Code to build a hUGETracker exporter, and you could actually bring one of these songs into GB Studio!

Just a hot take, but if you ask someone to complete a rote task that AI can do, you should not be surprised when they use AI to do it. The author does not mention whether the generated project plan actually looked good or plausible. If it i
