this baby's-first-interpretation of middle management seems pretty instructive as to a lot of the gap that otherwise intelligent and literate people around places like bluesky have with regards to LLMs/AI more generally
if you've ever *been* a good middle manager, I think it's a lot more legible

I still have a sneaking suspicion that this isn't something that model devs have a handle on themselves, though. Every time I talk to somebody at one, it's *all* handwaving.
maybe invest in L&D, I dunno

experimenting with using gemini-cli as a subtool for claude and great googly moogly are they behind. their built-in codebase investigator is *dumb*. if I feed it my standard codebase-investigator subskill from Claude, Gemini does a fantastic job, and on very large requests much better than Claude

okay, neuroscientist, let’s talk about the several hours of back-and-forth on plan refinement that leads to effective long runs to make useful things

I ran a software job overnight that took about six hours and, after review this morning: literally no changes.
but there's a reason for that.
