You misunderstand how clearance works. Any one can get "read-on" to anything with the proper authorities giving them access. It is an administrative step. It might undergo review but access does not need to be prevent until the re

Writing seems to have worked out pretty well.

Any time an empirical research project has to add QUOTES around a common term, it sets off the non-sense radar: ..."laziness"... In the battle cry of the philosopher: DEFINE YOUR TERMS!! What they really mean: new and different.

I'm curious, what would be the reason for doing this?

Have there been any declarations by various AI companies (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity) that they are actually relying upon these llms.txt files? Is there any evidence that the presence of the llms.txt files will lead to increased inc

Cheers...Chrome dev tools must have tricked me. Also nice that the author didn't minify it. Interesting to read through.

This is why the internet is amazing! Awe-inspiring. Beautiful. How does the author build these pages? Looks like it is React. The entire blog must be custom built, no? Or is this built on top of an existing CMS?

Indeed. Which would seem to indicate that positive growth along the Kardashev scale will lead to hypertrophy not atrophy, as conjectured by the OP. One could hypothesize that growing control of energy is highly correlated with the ability t

Agreed, there is an economic factor here but I would see that is highly correlated with the Kardashev grade of a civilization. The conjecture of the OP is that higher Kardashev grade will result in higher atrophy. My claim is that we seem t

No, I do mean precisely the average muscle mass is higher. Granted we are dealing with statistics. There is inevitably a lot more context than just a myopic focus on this single fact. Dated but still relevant: https://cepr.org&#

Agreed, I was debating whether or not this was relevant to mention. What I could have added was a caveat that sample non-obese people from each time would indicate that 2024 people have greater average muscle mass. Personally, a more intere

A castle built on sand. The only way to take the premise of this claim seriously is to ignore data for the past 100 years. When I was in the US military, we all complained about the Body Mass Index standards. They were based on the WWII era

The hype of Agentic AI is to LLMs what an MBA is to business. Overcomplicating something with language that is pretty common sense. I've implement countless LLM based "agentic" workflows over the past year. They are simple. I

Yes, very good point. I would argue that what I’m suggesting is particularly well suited to startups. It may be relevant to larger companies as well but I think the politics and risk profile of larger companies makes this nearly impossible

Yes completely agree. This is hard for a PM to do. I’m assuming that the OP is a founder and can actually make these calls.

The challenge is that you actually want your entire team to benefit from the feedback. The 4 of you are going to benefit IMMENSELY from directly experiencing every single pain point- together. As developers we like to focus. But there is va

Don't do this to yourself. There are 2 fundamental aspects of software engineering: Get it right Keep it right You have only 4 engineers on your team. That is a tiny team. The entire team SHOULD be playing "offense" and &quot

While I can't vouch for voiczy, Duolingo is in the business of user retention and engagement in order to meet investor demands...language learning is the hook. Duolingo is notably POOR at real language acquisition.
