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 …

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 …

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, regul…

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.

Arr as in pirate.lots of tools that support piracy end with that suffix like sonarr etc

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-lear…

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 so…

Probably something like "Buy a pass to play"

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…

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. …

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 …

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, tha…

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.

Remember folks, don't credit people promising to do things, credit people who have done things.

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, th…

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).

Ballarat Hackerspace member checking in here. Hackerspaces require ongoing work and support. They aren't great businesses, but are great community spaces. To that end, you need an …

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".

And Terminator was M (in Australia), which means "recommended" for 15 years and older, but not restricted.

I love this: > Note that all examples are deliberately left unstyled to present the simplest implementation. I've looked at too many documentation examples that show a bunch of thi…

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 …
