Not sure how long the subreddit has existed but I always assumed it was inspired by the episode of The Office where Michael asks Oscar to explain what a surplus is like he's 5. The broader usage on social media and the ELI5 shorthand are definitely the result of the subreddit though. This article is definitely abusing the terminology, because I wouldn't expect even tech-knowledgeable people to know what Nostr is or d…

I remember when the sub was first created, I think there was an understanding it didn’t actually mean you were explaining to five year olds. Hard to recall exactly when it was created though, so definitely awhile ago.

It may not have started that way but there definitely was some amount of commenters that took it quite literally

[I work for Slack, opinions very much my own] Having agents see everything you and your colleagues see is cool. The challenge comes when you want to make certain things private to certain people. In that world you don’t want multiplayer agents leaking data, so you end up having to write and maintain complex rulesets about what specific resources agents have access to. Single-player agents, on the other hand, are much…

Maybe this is naive or startup-brained of me: I understand not wanting HR-related things to be potentially exposed by a misaligned agent, but when it comes purely to the building of software I personally do not care at all who can read the code/discussions & engage with the process.

For code, often contractors and partners are only given scoped access to relevant projects.

nostr solves for who owns the shared service. nobody. run your own, use an open relay, or pay for one from folks you trust.

What problem is that a solution to? Is there a problem with someone owning it, in that case: what?

Maybe you have enemies that can coerce your service providers into shutting parts of your business down. It happened to WikiLeaks.

This guy wants people to use bitcoin for chat so badly and it is never going to happen, but it is kind of sweet that Jack Dorsey, through Nostr, was able to accomplish what Musk wants so badly: A social media platform only used by people that like him

Cool. Windows was made in 7.5 years. Since you can do one month per 2 days it should take you less than 6 months to make something equivalent to Windows and make as much money. How long have you been doing it??

I've built two multi-million dollar businesses this year. I have no interest in building Windows. Right now I'm building some very cool business functions similar to companies with way more funding yet lackluster product offerings.

I have no doubt someone out there somewhere will follow up on exactly what you've suggested.

I'd like to see this problem solved in such a way that your group memberships are transitively applied to your access to agents. In other words: you shouldn’t be allowed to talk to an agent at all if, at a given point in time, that agent is or was in a group that you are not or were not in at that time. Does that make sense? I don’t know how practical this restriction is, but letting the AI manage such permissions on…

These kinds of rules never survive real world tests. For example if I create a private group just for myself and auto invite every agent in the company into it, does that mean no one can now use any of them?

What's the problem with just forking them, then?

It doesn't. But as long as it's a vibe-coded slop product shat out by one of the tech glitterati using the latest marketing wanketeering and sucking up tokens to power the in-built AI nonsense, it'll be eaten up. The bubble can't pop soon enough.

You literally sell AI products lol, of course for you "there is no bubble" because if there is one, its very bad for you. You should disclose your position so your comments make sense.

It’s kinda interesting seeing what, IIRC, was originally a subreddit name which spawned from an AskReddit thread, is now a common marketing phrase in the tech world. Similar to the sub itself, it’s now just shorthand for “describe using the first principles the expected audience should understand.” I imagine a lot of people in the industry also fondly remember the 2010s reddit experience.

I remember someone saying it in high school back in the late 90s or early 00s.

I remember saying this when I was 5 years old
