In my opinion this is goal post moving. Humans do many things that we cannot fully explain either without post decision rationalization, and not all intelligent humans are deeply introspective.

Our gateway lets team members bundle together configured MCPs into a unified MCP server with only two tools -- search and execute, basically a meta-mcp!

Very interesting! What kind of use cases are you using your agent (Smith) for? Is it primarily coding, or quite varied across the board?

Members can then bundle the various MCP servers together into a single unified MCP server that contains just two tools -- search and execute, so it doesn't overload context windows. The team members then get a remote MCP server URL for the unified MCP server bundle to bring into Cursor!

I'm actually working on an MCP control plane and looking for anyone who might have a use case for this / would be down to chat about it. We're gonna release it open source once we polish it in the next few weeks. Would you be up to connect?

You can check out our super rough version here, been building it for the past two weeks: gateway.aci.dev

this statement is just patently wrong, and even those are still significant value. LLMs have been significantly impacting software engineering and software prototyping.

New comment by ObnoxiousProxy in "If English was written like Chinese (1999)"

ObnoxiousProxy — Tue, 04 Jun 2024 11:04:30 +0000

Unlike with numbers, day to day language needs to convey a larger variety of concepts hence why logograms are still needed. Much like how more advanced math requires different symbols and operators that are akin to mathematical logograms to convey additional concepts beyond the fundamental quantities of 0 to 9.

Alphabets are often linked to sound, and it would be a tremendous challenge to create an "alphabet" analogue that links to a set of fundamental concepts that you can somehow rearrange to form higher level concepts and can still be universally understood without it linking to sound.

New comment by ObnoxiousProxy in "Gamers Have Become Less Interested in Strategic Thinking and Planning"

ObnoxiousProxy — Sat, 25 May 2024 01:06:02 +0000

I wonder if this might have been influenced by how the "gamer" demographics has expanded due to mobile gaming too.

It used to be that "gamers" were either console or PC specific, and these platforms not only naturally allowed for more complex games but also attracted a specific demographic who prefered games with more challenge, strategy elements, and planning. But now "gamers" is much more diverse. The casual mobile afk gaming demographic has eclipsed that of the more serious and old school gamer persona, and by design and nature mobile games tend be much less strategic.

New comment by ObnoxiousProxy in "Study finds that 52% of ChatGPT answers to programming questions are wrong"

ObnoxiousProxy — Fri, 24 May 2024 13:12:16 +0000

Misleading headline and completely pointless without diving into how the benchmark was constructed and what kinds of programming questions were asked.

On the Humaneval (https://paperswithcode.com/sota/code-generation-on-humaneval) benchmark, GPT4 can generate code that works on first pass 76.5% of the time.

While on SWE bench (https://www.swebench.com/) GPT4 with RAG can only solve about 1% of github issues used in the benchmark.

New comment by ObnoxiousProxy in "America's shoplifting problem, explained by retail workers and thieves"

ObnoxiousProxy — Fri, 03 Nov 2023 15:01:52 +0000

Truthfully, the proliferation of crimes like this is a pre-condition of systems collapse because it slowly unravels a lawful society. Laws that are not enforced are useless, and behaviour like this would eventually permeate into mainstream culture. After all, why should I pay if others can steal without consequences? Not to mention the negative socioeconomic impacts others have already pointed out of forcing store closures or driving up costs which eventually just feed the loop.

Whether or not one is sympathetic towards the people practicing this, the key issue that is becoming apparent is increasing apathy towards basic civilizational social contracts. This will be bad for everyone in the long term.

Hypoglycemia can lead to coma and can cause death through several mechanisms including but not limited to:

New comment by ObnoxiousProxy in "Sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and executive function in children"

ObnoxiousProxy — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 20:07:05 +0000

While the findings are quite believable and corroborates some other similar studies where increased sugar intake for kids may lower executive function/cognition, this study relies on executive function assessments reported by the parents which doesn't feel like it would be very reliable to me.

Furthermore, while they account for diet in their covariate analysis, it's not very detailed or granuar so it doesn't account for other sources of sugar that these kids might be having (the authors acknowledge this). Based on this study it's hard to conclusively say whether it's the sugar that negatively impacts cognition or other ingredients, or vice versa whether kids with poor executive function prefer sweet drinks. Probably still a good idea to limit refined sugar intake for your own kids though.
