I don't think the same things that help humans help agents. Simplicity helps humans, for agents parsing complexity is a breeze.

Not saying code quality isn't important - it is. But I think what is described as quality code will change.

Agents still pay a penalty for complexity even if it is a smaller one.

Parsing single file is easier than navigating a file system for an LLM. Until the models have context windows large enough to hold the entire codebase in one shot, single files will beat multiple files every time.

This. I suspect the codebases in the future will be made of a small number of gigantic source files. These will be able to be transpiled into a more human friendly that produces multiple smaller files per big file in human-debug mode.

As a human who typically uses large files, 10k to 30K lines of code files are pretty common, I find the agents don’t read the whole file after the first time, they almost always do a range select for the bit they are interested in.

But you wouldn’t argue that a 30k line file is good code would you?

Humans write bad code to. For me the litmus test is: will someone read this in the future. If yes, then write good code.

I don’t think we are in the era when a human will never read the code again in human history. So we should still strive for human intelligibility.

The code I write is good. I don’t write for the lowest common denominator, readers need to be hard core functional programmers as a pre-req.

The great thing about AI is that it’s raising the bar on lowest common denominator.

This is really just arguing semantics. The reality is that programmers are working at a higher level than they were before. Call it whatever you want.

Before even looking at the resume

Its getting pretty close. Chatgpt can easily figure out your order and find you a restaurant. It just can't do the last mile bit of placing the order itself.

I bet it could for pizza chains with an api. Next step is for restaurants to include an api endpoint for ordering in their attributes?

Love the creativity and dedication to the project. And really cool house.

"give all the info on your product"

Exactly except:

If you're a CEO, the info you care about is one set of info.

If you're a user, the info you care about is different.

If you're some other influencer, the info you care about is different again.

Everyone wants different sets of info. Good sales is figuring out what that is and giving it to you.

Signed up for the trial, I get an empty screen that says "Environments". Can't seem to do anything!

That was really cool.

It gave me a riddle for the first digit, but I repeated the riddle back to her which she took as the correct answer.

Then a 20 questions quiz for the second digit which was cool, then a series of clues for the last digit, the last of which was "the last digit is the sum of X and y".

Really fun conversational flow.

Oh yeah love the creativity of these LLMs. The prompt didn't include any of that.

Looks great, but I just tried on my mobile and after selecting equipment, there's no way to get to the next step

There was a small bug with the button on some browsers - should be fixed now :)

It seems you have to click on the next step in the stepper above. But I agree that a “next” button would make more sense

Seems to me you should setup SSO and do whatever compliance you need to do, and get those customers on board.
