I think you’re probably overthinking it. The same model will in my experience find errors in the same thing it just generated. I think reviewing is a totally different place in latent space, than implementing. Anyhow, it works well for me.

I often tell codex to launch a subagent without prior context to „remove BS phrases and make the prose sound more natural and higher readability“. That‘s usually enough to get better results.

I’d recommend to instead write a de-slop skill that instructs to launch a sub agent with fresh context, and analyze for such phrases in the new commits, and remove those. Find -> fix just works better than preemptive instructions, in my experience.

And if you manage to do this automatically before committing, you’ve built the backpressure everybody is talking about.

I don't think that's opinions, but, rather, going wherever the wind blows.

There is no MacBook Pro with OLED (yet).

I‘ve built this anti-k8s stance pre-LLMs, and just realized that, actually, agents should be pretty helpful in dealing with it? Is avoiding kubernetes still advisable for projects that will likely never use its full complexity, given how easy it is to maintain now?

Why would I ever use a local model by that logic? A usable model means my computer was very expensive so I‘d have the funds for a Pro plan as well.

I would just, not wait for things to finish because it’d be instant? No need to create slop just because something is faster.

TIL there will be 35 degrees Celsius in London today. I thought that basically never happens. I remember people telling me a few years ago that they are lucky to ever get 30 degrees.

While my colleagues are running 6 parallel agents at 50-100t/s each, with an actual SOTA model? Don’t you think I‘d get fired after a few weeks of that?

But what is it doing for you that you couldn’t do yourself at that speed? I‘m really curious and on the fence of partly going local.

> but the speed is a consequence of the design, not the pitch.

You kinda lost me there. I‘m supposed to use a central technology whose author can’t be arsed to write a few paragraphs?

I don’t agree with 2). It’s ok to qualify. Sounds sycophantic to not do it.

Carmack might think that there are certain areas he will be better due to decades of experience. Overall programmer isn’t a bad qualifier at all, it’s actually making it sound less offhand and more honest.

Have you tried the 27B dense version? It’s way better for coding.

Sure, and the body makes its own glucose. The only way to deplete that is prolonged fasting.

If you‘re specifically aiming for low glutamine, going vegan won’t cut it though, depending on what foods you leave in. Soy is high in it. Eg a glass of milk is lower glutamine than a serving of tofu.

Isn’t glutamine also part of vegan diets? I don’t eat meat myself, but your assertion has me wondering about glutamine.

May I ask, how much money you have spent so far on this effort?

I think author meant he vibe coded some deterministic system. Maybe comparing the whole genome to a healthy one, and pointing out all diffs?

Why do I need shortcuts though, I want that to be transparent.

If they are using some mid model and are stingy with web search, I won’t use it more than a couple times.
