> It's difficult to keep personal / business / team separate

I have one vault for personal, one for work. I open each one in a different window. They are both separate and easy to switch between.

I’m missing something. What’s the incentive for people to pay to upvote or comment?

Paste from markdown (Chrome only) works _really_ well for me. What are the extra steps you’re running into?

The headline misrepresents the source. It’s not the title of the page, not the point of the content, and biases the quote’s context: “ if traditional software delivery best practices aren’t already in place, this velocity multiplier becomes a debt accelerator”

It very much depends on the product. In my experience, Copilot has terrible signal noise. But Bugbot is incredible. Very little noise and it consistently finds things the very experienced humans on my team didn’t.

I’m probably missing it, but I don’t see how you can share skills across agents, other than maybe symlinking .claude/skills and .codex/skills to the same place?

> Anthropic's recent switchboard operator

I don’t know what this is and Google isn’t finding anything. Can you clarify?

Cloud only. My employer is still on an ancient data center version. But you can easily write a cli that wraps the REST API.

As-is Gemini CLI and Codex. I run my CLIs in VSC and only using it as a file browser.

They will do it with needlessly complexity that is out of step with the competition, as they did with slash commands (toml) and extensions (skills-equivalent).

> One could only wonder why they became a programmer in the first place, given their seeming disinterest in coding.

To solve problems. Coding is the means to an end, not the end itself.

> careful configuration of our editor, tinkering with dot files, and dev environments

That may be fun for you, but it doesn’t add value. It’s accidental complexity that I am happy to delegate.

How is it different from subagents?

I agree with that, but isn’t it also the case that if an employer raises wages enough to get the workers they need, they have to do some combination of passing those costs along to customers and reducing the benefits to shareholders, which in turn reduces their ability to remain a viable business and keep people employed? It’s a balancing act.

It’s amazing to me how well Fred Brooks’ insights from 50 years ago hold up (plan to throw one away, in this case).

It’s unclear which post you’re referring to - can you clarify which book you mean by “this book”?

It’s just programming. We don’t use a different word for writing code in an IDE either.

Somewhat related, I also find it bizarre that they all but prevent you from getting information out of the app. Export to/Open in Google Docs seems like a no-brainer, but copy-paste is the only option.

Why are you being cryptic about it?
