I don't like skills. It's a really annoying form of technical debt, especially when people try to fill up company repos with random skills they think are so cool. Same goes for polluting a repo with custom instructions. I only wan

I'm curious what issues you had with haskell? I have had the opposite experience and find them dreadful at Java et al. Surely, denser languages should be better for LLMs?

I just made MCP servers that wrap the tools I need the agents to use, and give no-ask permissions to the specific tools the agents need in the agent definition. Both OpenCode and VsCode support this. I think in ClaudeCode you can do it with

Without access to Opus, it seems to me that the limited context size you get isn't worth the subsidy, especially once you blow through the included requests, the cost seems kind of hard to predict because it's 'request'

I define tools that perform individual tasks, like build the application, run the tests, access project management tools with task context, web search, edit files in the workspace, read only vs write access source control, etc. The agent on

Good thing I had just finished migrating all of my workflows to OpenCode for the time being! It's a shame because the VsCode copilot experience is quite good out of the box compared to all of the other harnesses I've used. But wit

IMO the solution is the same as org security: fine grained permissions and tools. Models/Agents need a narrow set of things they are allowed to actually trigger, with real security policies, just like people. You can mitigate agent-&gt

I've been working on my own thing with more of a 'management' angle to it. It lets me connect memories to tasks and projects across all of my workspaces, and gives me a live SPA to view and edit everything, making controlling

As a rule people do not read the linked content, they come to discuss the headline. The first indication to me this was AI was simply the 'project structure' nonsense in the README. Why AI feel this strong need to show off the pro

It all depends on the tools. AI will surely give a competitive advantage to people working with better languages and tooling, right? Because they can tell the AI to write code and tests in a way that quashes bugs before they can even occur.

I've been going heavily in the direction of globally configured MCP servers and composite agents with copilot, and just making my own MCP servers in most cases. Then all I have to do is let the agents actually figure out how to accompl

Weird clone of OpenFront but with no UI .. ? Custom game doesn't work, tons of errors, can't even see where I am, or understand what is going on. Doesn't seem like you played your own game before submitting it.

Trying to go the Spec -> LLM route is just a lost cause. And seems wasteful to me even if it worked. LLM -> Spec is easier, especially with good tools that can communicate why the spec fails to validate/compile back to the LLM. B

I have good success using Copilot to analyze problems for me, and I have used it in some narrow professional projects to do implementation. It's still a bit scary how off track the models can go without vigilance. I have a lot of worry

This seems like a step backwards. Programming Languages for LLMs need a lot of built in guarantees and restrictions. Code should be dense. I don't really know what to make of this project. This looks like it would make everything way w

Can someone explain to me why anyone would do this, and then tweet about it..? Is he really trying to blame 'ai agents' and 'terraform' .. ??

MC02 had a lot of problems but calling it a zerg rush exposes your ignorance-- it was a very sophisticated and well-coordinated surprise attack. The people running the wargame rejected the outcome as a likely tactic to be used by the hypoth

If you investigate all banned weapons though, you'll find it's more to do with practicality+cost+optics than some high minded agreement. Wars fought today are still brutal, and people use anything that will get them ahead. So e.g.

Hitler had (poor) intelligence that the Soviets had thousands of tanks (they actually had more than the germans thought); he refused to believe that such a 'backwards' country could have such a strong modern military however.

The entire point of Monads, is restricting the ability to do these operations into functions that are tagged with having this ability, precisely so you _cannot_ invoke IO in a random pure function. It's the entire point of the language

For sure, the band is Lars and James. People like to hate on Lars and Hammett out of jealousy I guess, they’re both really successful in a genre that celebrates technical prowess, while not being technical players.

If you have any musician friends who are into metal, ask them what they think of Lars as a drummer. :)

The doctor isnt the one in danger dying or getting sick, that seems like a big distinction and probably the reason people were skeptical of it.

Really, people had to be told that people with white(r) skin, are similar..? How stupid do these people think 'everyone else' is. This is the most absurd thing I've read all day. Humans, who divide themselves along such lines

The worst feeling in the world is being a bit lonely, and then being by yourself in a place where you are surrounded by groups of people. I got more depressed more often trying to go do social things in uni than I ever did physically being

Yes, the same flight plans, routes and timetables, were re-used, so when spotters saw the aircraft take off they had a very good idea of where it would come from. The shoot down also involved the SAM radar operator violating his own SOP by

Combat Mission is generally meant to be played turn-based, and commands given to squads are issued on a grid. You can watch the entire action unfold in replay while determining your next move, so you don’t miss anything. It’s almost ident
