I just received an e-mail indicating this may be required by April 20th. I can't think of two accounts that people would want to keep more separated than these two. I've never actually trusted GlassDoor enough to leave a review an

Thanks. Adding memory is an interesting idea. I'd probably want to do it a little differently than what is done in the main apps to avoid overlap. I like the idea of being able to tag conversations and then use that "tag" to

Claude Code does it. Check out the JSONL files.

Sometimes I need to give Claude Code access to a secret to do something. (e.g. Use the OpenAI API to generate an image to use in the application.) Obviously I rotate those often. But what is interesting is what happens if I forget to provid

If I am not mistaken, Claude sometimes pulls an API key out of a .env file and drops it into that folder. It might be neat for you to add a feautre specifically for identifying any keys that are in that folder.

This is an exmaple of a potentially problematic prompt: "You are an expert data analyst combining statistical rigor with deep domain knowledge. Your goal is to deliver data-driven insights — not summaries or visualizations — grounded i

This local legislation has been the subject of some discussion. Is it prudent or does it discourage tech investment? I'm personally not excited to see that AI and data-centre customers have to compete for MW under a fixed cap while oth

That's a fair point. I do think what's most interesting this time is the potential for new use-cases (users) vs the replacement of existing ones. I agree that there are better ways for serious developers to work than to be using C

We've got a product in beta right now that lets's you spin up a review app by just commenting "deploy" on a PR in GitHub. When you combine that with Claude Code on the web, it is pretty fun. You can be anywhere (on a boa

A risk is that it will give people a false sense of confidence that they are viewing real content. The only way out of this mess is cryptographic methodss (based on hardware in cameras) that can allow end-users to verify photos as real and

I don't want to sound promotional but this is the space we are living and breathing everyday at VeilStream.com so I do have some opinions. My suggestion to anyone using any type of AI (whether it be an AI coding tool like Cursor, an en

Canada as well. We have the longest coastline in the world but buy all or most of our ferries from other countries. It's silly.

Our provincial government securities regulator for British Columbia, Canada, released this PSA to warn residents of AI investment scams. I think it's great. I think it's only a matter of time until someone gives a government agenc

Although Air Canada Flight 759 was far too close for comfort and should be classified as a failure of the system, even if it did not result in an accident.

My favorite two reasons for blogging: 1) Because sometimes you are right about something and it's nice to show that you were thinking about it ahead of time. An example would be my prediction in 2023 (which is fairly late in all fairne

Although that is true, the counterpoint is that I think some people underestimate the potential impact on animals and how much room away from humans they really need. Some interesting recent research here: https://www.ualberta.ca

There are times when I would ask for this. If it's midnight on a Saturday and the website says: "You can reach a human agent 9-5 M-F or we can have an AI agent call you right now" then I might opt for the AI agent. I may also
