The only one I have found gets regular mileage is grill-me from Matt Pocock.

Stepping down as CEO would do nothing, so unless you plan on forcing him to sell his share IDK what the point of the article is.

Astra did a smarter web search and found higher quality resources and blog posts about the topic I was trying to learn.

On the same effort level, while it was cranking through it did about 3-5x number of web sources found.

At home I use a Macbook Pro.

Because of the RAM cost rises and desire to run LLMs locally, I have considered a mac mini or some other desktop mac instead of upgrading my macbook pro. (Since loading it with 64GB of Ram now has a purpose is probably didn't for me before.)

The most important thing for posture is to have a good office chair (herman miller Aerons are cheap used) and lift weights at the gym. A regular deadlifting (once per week) builds a strong back and core and keeps your posture in check.

This and 'load-bearing' anywhere are just awful. Anthropic would do well to stop inserting their poor writing taste into models.

No one wrote this with a straight face did they?

This field for practitioners is not very settled yet since the area is quite new.

- turn off chat search so it cannot search other chats for context

- delete custom instructions / system prompt

- do not run inside a claude project or GPT project

- delete all skills and plugins

Most sources of context should now be blank.

In essence the human right and ability to learn and change and wield computers at an unlocked and low level is a policy decision.

What if governments said programs must be from companies and users should not be allowed to write their own programs, operating systems must be locked down to keep users safe or some bs 'think of the children' excuse.

Especially Linux and OSS is a political manifesto design specifically to stop this kind of government overreach from taking root. It would certainly benefit shareholders of large computer companies to the detriment of the individual user's freedoms.

It's easy to see a perspective like that where software is political. Politics is not a battlefield, that's an American two party system trick.

Seeing the word politics doesn't immediately mean bad or divisive.

Think you need to narrow down what is exactly being purchased.

Not sure whether you mean something like 'find me a cheap SAAS for CRM' and it comes back with quotes for various monthly subscriptions, or if it's something like 'I need 500 bottles of ketchup for my BBQ business' and it comes back with 'go to store x and buy y for price z' ??

not enough info to answer:

> i am looking to charge $500/mo for it.

AI tools need to answer:

a) Can you save me more than that by using your tool?

b) Can I just do it myself by prompting Claude or ChatGPT or Copilot or whatever. You kind of need your own data sources or deals with suppliers/providers of whatever you are offering to find for cheaper that Agents doing web search cannot find or use to have any kind of edge here.

To whom?

> Your choices are tea or coffee.

is the obvious way to write this as english speaking person talking to another, 'choices are tea and coffee' is just wrong.

if you need authentication there's not really any way around that, you could implement SSO or something but that would require more collaboration with your engineering/IT department.

You're probably at the scale that having your own hardware to run local models is worth it, even if it's a couple of mac minis or mac pros in a cupboard in your office.

In contrast Star Citizen is far more ambitious but shows 0 sign of ever actually landing.

NMS is still a great fun space game to play, the lore / back story of each faction is quite bleak though and the lack of good individual characters does leave it feeling more like exploration sandbox than a really compelling world you care about.

Is it not still happening?
