My understanding is that the main reason splitting up work is effective is context management. For instance, if an agent only has to be concerned with one task, its context can be massively reduced. Further, the next agent can just be told

How much do you babysit claude, and how much do you just "let it do its thing"? I haven't had anything as severe as OP, but I have had minor issues. For instance, claude dropped a "production" database (it was a dem

Even in small companies, its important to discuss what the expectations around AI are. In the absence of any further requirements (i.e. assuming privacy is not a major issue, regulatory issues etc), it can be as simple as clearly saying: &q

This is a really important point - my file manager just says "Name" with sorting. So while its not perfectly defined, it doesn't make the promise of saying its alphabetical.

I came from an academic background, and didn't have anyone else in the team with programming experience when I was researching. I found my time as a contributor for the scikit-learn project to be invaluable in learning about the requir

There is a risk, however small, that your bonds won't be paid back leading to a large loss.

I think one method here is to incorporate your own site into the content as much as possible. For example, if you are a creator, get people to sign up to a newsletter to get the source files. Get people onto your platform/forum/wh

I'm a big fan of Grammarly and have been using it, and paying for it, for years. The advantage is not spell checking. It is grammar and style improvements. It tells you things like "this language is informal", or "this i

The problem is the rules aren't specified, if you fall afoul of a rule you do not get told which rule it is, and the rules are AI-based decisions that are hard to even understand. If the process was transparent, it would be a lot easie

This happens regularly (perhaps not frequently) to people with their Gmail account. Google's AI says no, and there are very few people reporting successfully navigating the system to get their account back. This is one of the anti-goog

Look for higher-end training companies who specialise in your area, and ask if they are interested in doing 1:1 tutoring. Many would be happy to help. (I work for one, but I won't mention who, as that's not the point of my post.)

The article does a pretty good job of making this argument, including your (and my initial!) question about why not to just use password managers.

Honestly, why?

The implication here is that this is a bad thing (although OP doesn't say that). I'm not sure I think the same. If AI can be used to automate the more tedious parts of writing, that's fine with me. For me, as long as the pape

Aussie here, we try to get both the .com and the .com.au (and now also the .au), because people will just use one or the other, regardless of what the link says.

I am fine with "extra scene to setup the next season cliffhanger", but sometimes the "mainline story" isn't even finished. The season just stops at some point before the payoff, then gets cancelled in the off-season

I'm not sure about the USA, but government jobs in Australia also are very stable with strong contracts and benefits (in general, every department is different).

I might have read it wrong, but I read OP as saying something like "people want to do agile, but wait until the project is perfect, thereby negating the whole point".

For all of Microsoft's flaws, they typically are good at working with regulators and ticking the boxes needed to get into a market like EU. It's unsurprising that Bard isn't there yet, as the whole field has moved at "

Great to hear. Scikit-learn also typically uses joblib for model persistence: https://scikit-learn.org/0.18/modules/model_persistence.html Joblib is also used internally for models to be run in parallel, e.g. htt

While reductive, isn't that true in many professional sports though? I have a wide variety of tools I can use to travel 100m faster than Usain Bolt, but its incredible to watch him do it on his own.
