Absolutely. I will never waste my time with slop that doesn't get to the point. This is a lousy blog post about bread, not a great novel.

A comment from Derek Lowe:

>Postscript: Our Secretary of Health and Human Services of course cancelled $500 million in mRNA vaccine R&D contracts (22 different programs) last year, and cited a pile of misinformation (and cluelessly misunderstood research citations) to justify it. Our Director of the National Institutes of Health was apparently just fine with this decision and cited mRNA vaccines’ alleged failure to “earn public trust” as one of his reasons, along with public statements that “the mRNA platform is no longer viable”. I have a number of suggestions for each of these individuals and their supporters about how they might spend the rest of their day, and will be glad to send details if they contact me.

There have been a few similar posts on HN recently for working with MS Office docs:
https://github.com/iOfficeAI/OfficeCLI
https://github.com/rcarmo/python-office-mcp-server

It would be great to see some benchmarks for token use, correctness, features etc.

A "standing review agent" seems to be one of the main differences beyond the new connectors and in place visualisation tools.
>A standing reviewer agent. This runs in the background during a session, checking citations against sources, flagging numbers it can't trace back to evidence, and catching figures that don't match the code that supposedly generated them. That's not something Code or Cowork do automatically — you'd have to ask Claude to double-check itself as a separate step.
