it really isn't a flex ppl think it is when they're burning tokens churning agents that are working for "hours" doing work
we don't need to read or write code anymore, but we do need to write (as humans) the instructions for agents.
having ADRs, product specs, acceptance criteria, etc. that are properly maintained leads to agents working for just a few minutes and pumping out reliable code.
the more vague the work for agents, the more randomness and inefficiency there will be. that leads to bugs, constantly re-writing code, etc.
imo ofc, i'm not yet running a billion dollar company so maybe i'm wrong.
or at least i might wake up since im the one typing this.
and im arriving at alpha centauri.
all the progress and human evolution, timelines etc with exponential acceleration in the last act.
all to do with the effects of space time travel. the brain needs to remain active even in stasis.
thats the wake up signal.
actual intelligence is understanding a light hearted analogy (fill in the gaps) and doing a chuckle, and moving on.
an agent that can quickly figure out which responsibility goes where means the next time there's a bug or feature request, that agent then can actually work in an efficient way and get the task done.
do you want your agents working for 15 minutes or more, constantly regurgitating slop, or do you want your agents working for 5-6 minutes or less?
just remember, agents are only supercharged when they're driven by someone who knows what they're doing.
i'm in sf, and i'm always blown away by people whose systems are either dog shit god awful, or whose systems are god tier insanely good.
it really isn't a flex to spend a ton on tokens or ai compute time, if you're putting out less actual work. ppl who flex like that with mid or worse results are morons.
my systems are somewhere in the middle i'd say, and i strive to be in the latter group.
aka the guys who bring up their wife all the time regardless of the situation.
its really not masculine and makes me trust that "man" less
billions of people have spouses. it isn't a big deal. stop bringing them in as a deflection mechanism to soften whatever shit they're gonna say next lol
actually on that point i’m all in on selling consumerism to as many people as possible. women are actually way easier to retain and far more susceptible to fomo.
great customers.
you live your life.
i'm living my best life.
i prefer watching older movies now where they actually "build the world" the movie is set within, instead of injecting politics from our world into some made up world.
i miss when fantasy and fiction actually met the definition.
the vast vast majority of people who can affect change come from money and influence.
the broke ones are the outliers.
voting and stuff is cool but end of the day it is an exclusive club.
i hope so.
it’s a political thing. most people are dumb and politics is made for the lowest common denominators.
you’re called slurs if you reject factory farmed meat.
i personally eat a mostly plant based diet and only eat sustainably wild caught fish a few times a week.
meat is like 5x more expensive than tofu. beans and lentils are cheap. i get about 130g of protein a day and my health results are in the 99pct.
we live in a world surrounded by absolute dumb fucks.
the only solution is to make hella money (billions+) so we can control incentives.
so better to just live in SF or certain areas of the midwest
where climate change won’t affect me
There are instances where we don’t exist. We exist here right now though which is cool. Say what you want and shoot your shot.
