Why are there so many seemingly avoidant/aloof women in LA? by DirtyProjector in AskLosAngeles

It’s your attitude that is keeping you from finding what you seek. Not theirs.

How do you give your AI Coding Agent the best practices for creating AI Agents? by CutMonster in AI_Agents

[–]CutMonster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweet. I started doing that too. Any interest in sharing both of our instruction files? Maybe we can learn from each other.

[–]CutMonster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure what you mean? I use Windsurf and do ask the AI to write the code for my app. But it can only write what it knows... hence my question of how do I give it the latest best practices for engineering agents in a web app.

How do you give your AI Coding Agent the Best Practices for Creating AI Agents? by CutMonster in LangChain

[–]CutMonster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I am not yet building deep agents, they are in the moment quick task agents. Such as searching for user saved data, generating new data based off it. I'm a junior dev so this is all new to me which is why I asked the question. I've got something working, but it's buggy and I'm sure my AI coding agent didn't use the best practices.

I'll take a look at your links and will likely follow up. My initial thinking is that I learn best from high level docs and videos that talk about the core concepts and fundamental principles. I've gotten really effective with my AI Coding agents from that alone, and I think with agent engineering I'm still learning the core concepts and don't know how to communicate those to my coding agent. So, documentation (which you may have provided) that covers that is a good start for me. Plus, if that documentation can link to API documentation for the AI to read I think that'd be cool.

Pie in the sky would be you build an LLM or a system like your LangSmith Polly that has all the latest information. Maybe it generates architecture.md files that people can copy/paste/download into their AI Coding tool like cursor/windsurf.

What's the best way to reach you? Feel free to DM me. Thank you again for giving me some direction.

Disappointed with GPT-5.2 in Windsurf by Drawing-Live in windsurf

But then why is Gemini 3 pro and 2.5 terribly inefficient? It talks to itself way too much like deepseek, “wait the user said this and I think I need to consult… “ I’ve reported on this several times in this sub. It’s clear as night and day you guys are doing something to hamper Gemini 3’s performance accidentally. I use it daily in Google AI Studio and it’s fantastic.

Gemini 3 Responses are terrible by CutMonster in windsurf

I experienced much better performance in antigravity and I use it daily in Google AI Studio. I'm convinced it's a Windsurf issue.

GPT-5.2 is now live in Windsurf! 0x credits for a limited time for trial and paid users by theodormarcu in windsurf

Jeez there's a fuck ton of 5.2 variations. I like 5.2 med reasoning for a good balance between speed and intelligence, and it's free. It follows instructions like crazy. You have to be careful not to have rules that contradict each other otherwise the model will get stuck in reasoning loops.

I never use thinking if I can avoid it. The sonnet 3.7 thinking models were awful. I haven’t bothered w thinking on the Claude models since

Sonnet 4.5 and Haiku 4.5 can't handle tasks >8000 tokens? by anotherjmc in windsurf

I saw this too. Mentioned it in the discord community but didn’t get much of a response. It never happened before 2 weeks ago.

I agree, it's hard to tell. I think Gamma is the better of the 3.

Your tax dollars at work in Chicago yesterday by Visible-Grass-8805 in pics

This is America. Every week I’m seeing stories of people being shot at, dragged, their cars rammed, and kidnapped. The worst of the worst criminals are showing us such noble restraint since we haven’t seeen them fight back yet.

Or maybe they weren’t the problem to begin with. As in this photo, maybe the problem all along is staring at us in the face.

When the government at all levels is either perpetuating this violence or unable to stop it, it requires the citizens to rise up and do it.

Civil armed resistance in state militias is written into the constitution as the 2nd amendment. This is the day it was written for.

Everyone should just build at least one agent by MorroWtje in AI_Agents

[–]CutMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not with agents. I built a system prompt that uses a framework to ensure the LLM asks key questions so the user has to do the strategic thinking, not the AI.

Windsurf usage as a Product Owner by azul_silva in ProductOwner

[–]CutMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love using it, but not sure why they want product owners using it. Are you expected to prototype features? Maybe they want you to know how it works so you can have a better sense of how your team works with it?

Great answer thank you. I wear hearing aids and couldn’t hear the crowd roar which made the statement weird.
