I started asking for specific example/answers each time a conversation stopped before of the end of the task. I got the sense that frequent checkpointing is baked into Opus 5.5. I then added some language that amounts to “carry this through to completion only stopping if you’re truly blocked” and it really helped lengthen the loop

You’re closer to this than I am but do you find it odd that helmets are almost never included? Biking is almost always accompanied by helmets

How you do you solve for, or imagine solving for the hiding of potentially important UI without running to risk users not finding what they are looking for and not realizing it is "just hidden". Without having to first know that they are missing something, how will they know? Is there a partial-hide?

yes and now it looks like you need a product tour

Netflix would have not become Netflix if Blockbuster had purchased them. This notion of a missed opportunity is flawed

Node.js
Rails
AWS Lambda
MongoDB & Postgres
We have some interesting requirements that we must conform to in order to be part of our customer's web applications. We'd love to explore those constraints and benefits with you.. Brian - co-founder @ Chameleon

We've all built and [not] maintained product tours, now its time to pass the torch to our business compatriots. Chameleon enables them to show off the product without developers as the linchpin for the whims of late-night copy changes.
We've built a product that runs wholly inside another companies interface allowing them to create and edit right where it matters (engineering wise there are many challenges this presents).
Our engineering motto: If product can think it up, we can built it -- all product needs to do is figure out what is most important ;)

Instead of assigning a variable or bloating the length of your statements, use this method to to return the caller and only execute the block if the condition passes.
User.where(:email => email).first.tap_if(:present?) {|user| user.send_update }
