The title should include that it's for cars.

It doesn't run a similar prompt or the same prompt again and hopes for the best. If it doesn't work, the agent debugs based on the errors received. Have you tried using a coding agent recently?

"rerun" is meant in a more abstract way here; "doesn't work" is meant in the way that the app itself is bad - and doesnt sell;

ofc i'm aware of modern agent loops; without them it wouldnt be possible to build apps with the click of a button in the first place


The US admin says they're going to take Greenland one way or the other and finds out this can have short- and longterm consequences. In other news, water is wet. I don't think I have ever seen a dumber geopolitical play than that in my lifetime.

Compared to before, not a lot of carpenters/furniture makers are left. This is due to automation.

> Compared to before, not a lot of carpenters/furniture makers are left.

Which is it? Carpenters or furniture makers? Because the two have nothing in common beyond the fact that both professions primarily work with wood. The former has been unaffected by automation – or even might plausibly have more demand due to the overall economic activity caused by automation! The latter certainly has been greatly affected.

The fact that people all over the thread are mixing up the two is mindboggling. Is there a language issue or something?


There is a language issue: carpenter is used as synonym of woodworker. It's like someone who doesn't know anything about computers using the term 'memory' to mean storage rather than working memory (i.e. RAM).

From the context it was pretty obvious what the original poster meant, as long as you charitably interpret their message. As per the site guidelines.

Nah, IKEA has replaced moving furniture with throwing it away and rebuying it. Prior to IKEA hiring a carpenter was also something that is done a few times in a lifetime/century. If anything it has commodized creating new furniture.

Deciphering fax messages? What is this, the 90s?

We have decades of internal reports on film that we’d like to make accessible and searchable. We don’t do it with new documents, but we have a huge backlog.

Fax is still hard to hack, so some organizations have kept it alive for security.

I think the most useful thing about faxes, security-wise, is that in their basic form they require zero digital storage of the image being sent. The only record on either side of the transmission is a piece of paper.*

Contrast that with email, which is store-and-forward by design, and now you have to put in effort to ensure both the sending and receiving email providers delete the message in a timely manner.

* obviously you can add store-and-forward behavior to either fax machine, but it's not the default.


Sometimes they just don't know any better.

Was your own project really selling a dataset at the higher end of what successful side projects make or was this a sidesideproject?

I'm curious about your own sales today and in a week's time.


well, it's like you cannot get valuable insights of wikipedia for free as well. i spent several efforts to figure it out.

hope you can get more insights from this story i published in medium. :)

Now that would be a smart chat agent.


No they are not. Neither the UK nor the US are murdering protestors at any comparable scale at this point in time.


You should call the human workers Cogs.
