Can you please point me to any project based around spec-driven development with agents which has worked well long-term, ideally one that isn't another agentic devleopment tool?

i would second this. at $company they are jumping head-first into this and its not going well at all...

you're right.

actual intelligence is understanding a light hearted analogy (fill in the gaps) and doing a chuckle, and moving on.

you still need to engineer/architect your system so that agents are able to efficiently build modify and test the system.

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.

there's also way too much woke non-sense in movies. i'm a tan non-caucasian guy, before someone has a micro-aggression.

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.

Target demographic has shifted from male to female. Your point of view is no longer being catered to because your purchasing power as a demographic is in decline.

I’m the opposite. I’m a tan non-caucasian gal and I love this woke stuff in my entertainment. It’s awesome to see and I much prefer modern movies.

this is a good goal to have

No, that is terrible.

1. Spending years of your life earning enough money so that you can begin to live at some later date is not a good way to live. Tomorrow is not guaranteed, and even if it was, you will be different and everything and everyone around will be different.

2. Human beings are not meant to live away and disconnected from everyone else. We are community creatures, even if not always very social.

I do think people overall would be happier if it was culturally, socially desirable to be, or at least come across, as humble, and consume little, especially the more resources you have. Think Warren Buffett -- maybe he does spend a lot on himself, but at least he does not come across as if he does and he certainly does not brag about it. The opposite of Instagram culture. Anyone going against this would see fierce backlash, reputational damage etc.

A new religion of sorts.

Perhaps then people would not feel the need to keep up with the Jones' as much, always feeling as if they don't have enough, worrying about their status. Once people have enough, they can have more choice in what they work on, and perhaps the economy can restructure towards more activity that actually makes people's lives better.

As is, people can't seem to stop even using Meta products or X or buying Tesla cars, despite most people likely having poor opinions of the people at the top of these companies. I do not really understand why. It is easy, these companies have no moats, there are easy alternatives, and it would change the world.

I was recently thinking the time will come when not consuming becomes a product. Imagine being paid to not use power or to not take a shower so the power and water are available for the billionaire instead to swim in his heated pool.

Insanity that the most sane goal in a capitalist system is to make enough to leave the system. Surely we have enough resources to figure out a method of distribution that doesn't involve this much suffering?

Actually getting away from everyone isn't expensive (in the US anyway).

It's expensive only if you want to feel like you're away from everyone, but actually stay very near to everyone.

You can buy a decent acreage (30-80 acres) for less than a new truck.

hi, random. Saw your comment some posts back. You need azure account with credits?

or maybe the leftist movements are also just as batshit insane as those they claim to "oppose" but so many people are brain broken these days it is impossible to have that discussion lol
