Usually the home service is 200+ amps these days which is 24 KW total across all circuits, though you're right that most individual circuits are only 10-15 amp.

Except sometimes cheap places are great because the food is good and they don't spend money on ambience and other pretentious expenditures.

the more Tokens/CPU use the better your project. /s

Shared information like code and files are increasingly important for keeping people and agents aligned, and "AI Native" businesses will become even more code heavy, so that makes sense.

so your agents can't access any private information in public channels?

Not very useful.

Still probably better than Claude's new bot which requires a service account per channel!

And if someone gets access to a channel that they shouldn't?

The best norms around slack channels is to have most channels be public, but have norms where not everyone is in every channel.

One of the best pieces of work in this genre is Gerald Weinberg's the psychology of computer programming.

What brand of robot is this and how how reliable is it?

But if that person has rare skills where at least 25% of their output makes another team of 5 100% more effective (200%), than than loss of 50% output is actually a 33% gain in output!

Say you have a team of 6 (5+1 DevOps Wizard), and a team of 5. so Call it 5x200 +5 x100% output, 1500 output total. Split our wizard in half and you get 5x200 + 5x200 = 2000 output total!

At a certain minimum level the effectiveness inverts because people are waiting on wizard magic and everyone is less effective, but there is benefit to having specialists be split.

this case was a self administrated abortion?

Fred Brooks and the mythical man month observed that communication between people expands faster than linear, and that adding more people to a project makes it later.

I saw this as well.

The weakening of the walls between Claude Code and Cowork is very offputting and makes it harder to get repeatable results.

"Maybe one day I’ll learn to read a query plan."

Query plans aren't that hard to read! [0]

AI is extremely useful and 95% USELESS at the same time. LLM based chat AI systems are a poor version of all the things that are AI.

"Popular metadata catalog solutions are Hive Metastore, AWS Glue Data Catalog, and Unity Catalog from Databricks.

For query engine you can use, for example, Apache Spark, Trino, or Amazon Athena."

DuckDB is eating the query engines and catalogs. Really could use more coverage on how DuckDB is changing the data tools landscape.

You are pedantically correct but technically wrong, as even optimized postgres is going to suffer on analytical patterns without extensions. With extensions (DuckDB or Citus) you can do large aggregations, but regular postgres at medium/large scale (billions of rows, 100s of GB) starts having a lot of foot guns and complex babying to do analytics. A bunch of indexes and you'll be fine though.

you can get a laptop shaped device for a hundred euros. A real laptop will still cost several hundred, and it won't be as good, but it's cheaper.

they're surprising good at this. The next tokens after a confusing string of tokens when asked to explain the confusing parts are pretty accurate!

The ag water was used to grow hay which was shipped to China and Brazil...

BIS released a larger report in June that identified AI financing/sustainability as one of the biggest risks for the global economy:

It's like playing cookie clicker except the higher your number goes up the more social status you and power you have.

shouldn't this get them turbo obliterated in europe?

I've used opencode on a plane with local models to make small updates to local MacOS apps. It's not fast or amazing, but it does work well enough to do trivial changes.

But also yes this is a real concern.

I've built a few small MacOS dock widgets now by just telling Claude/OpenCode to build them. Works well enough if you're very explicit.

The most useful one is a little weather sparkline to show local temperature forecasts. Useful every day.

40k per engineer per month? ~1.3k per day?

And now their comment is good next week! The rug pull getting extended doesn't mean it won't come.

I was a daily windows user for ~20+ years and haven't turned on my windows 10 desktop in months because the only thing I have it for now is anti-cheat games that are too time consuming to play...

Anecdotal for sure, but microsoft's blunders and erosion of trust are starting to hurt it.

"There's plenty of space for "disposable and single use software." Sure, to a trained software engineer, this might be "bad code" but doing today's task has value, even if the code that performs that task isn't "accretive.""

Grant me the serenity to accept the bad code i shouldn't fix, the courage to change the code I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

I think I'll make showing that on Good Friday a tradition now.

And then endless tweaks for CSS when the home owner decides they don't like the color of their molding...
