Accidentally said CI/CD instead of software factory and they kicked me out of SF
accidentally said microvm instead of agent sandbox and they kicked me out of SF

If you ask your mom "is the sky blue" she says "yes" immediately, that's jev. If you ask your dad "why is the sky blue" he talks for ten minutes, that's an LLM.

Had an awesome opportunity to talk to @jorandirkgreef about @TigerBeetleDB and their TigerStyle! TigerStyle adopts a lot of NASA’s Power of Ten rules for safety critical software. Stuff like no dynamic allocation, bounding loops and more! Loved the chat, Joran is such a good speaker! Take a listen! youtu.be/NjiIGm1988U

additional benefit: probability of your agents actually ingesting all necessary context increases. modularity and slim APIs also help. caveat: current sota loves nothing more than shitting out immense amounts of code, unnecessary abstractions, and uselessly defensive code. it's a ton of work to keep that from escalating.

“Look at my incredible new factory!” Yo that’s cool, what do you make? “It’s highly optimised, fully automated, zero tolerance for defects and with a continuous feedback cycle” Cool cool, so what do you actually make? “I can interact with it on my phone, laptop, messenger, completely async, and the shared context means it’s always learning how to get better” Very impressive, but what do you make? “Every agent has full context, can spawn other agents, review their work, fix defects, and ship continuously.” yes yes. WHAT DOES IT MAKE? “Software.” Oh nice. What software? “Well right now we’re mostly using it to improve the factory.” Improve it to make what? “Anything!” Such as? “…a better factory.”
