Thanks!

I've seen a big improvement in LLMs writing macros since Opus 5.5 came out. What really helps I think is that I've written skill files with my own examples and instructions.

Same thing for image-based dev. without an agent.md file with good instructions on how to work with a live image it will do dumb things. this sort of workflow is jsut so far off the training distribution.

I think what changed recently isn't that LLMs got better at CL, they just got way better at taking my skill/agent.md files and reasoning through them.

I mean if we're heading towards a future where code gen gets super cheap and super good what stops you from porting the libraries you want?

sure I agree the LLM doesn't need a DSL to get work done. The point is more that the DSL holds the opinions of whoever built the product

Did I ever use the term "Orwellian" in my comment?

Orwell's 6 rules for good writing:

1. Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

2. Never use a long word where a short one will do.

3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.

4. Never use the passive where you can use the active.

5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

6. Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

Now you tell me

I've been following Marcos's youtube channel and it's so great to see that they've finally found their thing. Looks like an awesome product that people actually want. Well done.
