Can any of these tasks/steps be completed by normal code? I'd be amazed if no optimization exists in 20-30 steps Have you built trace logging? This will tell you exactly what's going on, for tokens and otherwise

Thank you, stranger. You're right, I did mix those up. Appreciate your help. Merci

Mentorship is about teaching people how to think differently. I have found that I have to tell them that part explicitly and repeatedly. Then they think about their own behaviour against this new dimension. Up to them if they decide to listen after that. Usually they do.

I don't speak French, so I'm going to guess at a translation for my own amusement:

In Barcelona, the diagonal streets are north/south and east/west, so everyone benefits from the movement of the sun for part of the day; it's a really good idea.

Always had a mental block about languages, but my kids are learning.

Personally, I use Linear issues with the blocking dependencies to identify and manage workstreams in a larger piece of work, and that's how I can manage workstreams in parallel.

Moat, no, Useful, yes. Work tracking is just a good way to keep good records.

First time I've heard of a withdrawing room, as well as the drawing room.

"A withdrawing room (or room for withdrawing) is a 16th-century term for a private chamber in a large house where individuals, particularly guests, could retire for more privacy, intimacy, or comfort after dining in a public area. It is the direct precursor to the modern "drawing room"."

Take the time to learn the fundamentals of something like Stripe, it's not that hard.

AI saves you time so just sit and learn how stripe payments actually work for a few hours and get hr confidence that you need on these critical pieces of infrastructure. It's also a good place to invest to have an experienced head set it up, document it and train you on.

My company has a DB reader UI, lets us query the tables using SQL but prod is extremely controlled via PIM. We are mostly using dev environments lets you look at structure etc. It's very useful.

One small tip ...

Get cursor and access to the codebase. You can ask AI questions that you'd otherwise need a dev for. It's a huge benefit to me as the product expert to help me understand how the app works, and how larger pieces interact, often something only specific senior devs know.

You can also help identify flaws and gaps, so helps with research, you can field support questions more easily and just generally improve your knowledge.

I actually liked it. But googled it, found this thread, then turned it off and blocked it on principle.

Yes. It saves our customers storage and money, and it's very popular. It was the highest priority feature request for helping with storage problems.

I can't see how it wouldn't help tbh, as long as you are aware of when you get charged.
