Agents are dead, long live workflows

Jammer This is the thing - actuarial data has no masters. Their accuracy is what they build business on, so it has to be right - and that no one reports on this is pretty unreal.

In Surrealist’s graph view, right-click a record and choose ‘Inspect’ to view its fields and relationships, then edit the entry without leaving the visualisation. Learn more about the visual IDE for our multi-model database. 👉 sdb.li/4dLLQNi

Workaccount2 on Hacker News just coined the term "context rot" to describe the thing where the quality of an LLM conversation drops as the context fills up with accumulated distractions and dead ends news.ycombinator.com/item?id=443087…

Most companies are NOT ready for background agents

Quitting programming as a career right now because of LLMs would be like quitting carpentry as a career thanks to the invention of the table saw.

Surreal Cloud’s network capabilities make it possible to send and receive HTTP requests natively in-database securely and conveniently. AlexanderFridriksson shows you how to enable this. Spin up an instance and try it. 👉 sdb.li/44jcPeT

One thing my healed self will never understand is why people insist “pathological obsession w winning/money/doing” == good founder. Startups are businesses, but we treat them like zodiac signs. Guy’s probably not gonna die wishing he raised more seed rounds.
