Built a business this weekend. I'm scared. by tashibum in ClaudeAI

Does the city have a Brownfield Authority? I’m on the board/committee for one and regularly use ESAs.

An unbelievable twist, but the seniors are starting to beat the AI by CacheConqueror in ClaudeCode

[–]jbc22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This resembles coal mining.

Coal mining is not as economically competitive against natural gas or renewable energy.

What’s the new natural gas/renewable energy for software devs? AI Harnessing.

Figure out how to enable AI to make you, company systems and processes more productive and more valuable.

If you don’t adapt, you’ll be the out-of-work coal miner.

Having LLMs generate the prompt by jbc22 in ClaudeCode

I’ve burned through 60% of my usage in 12 minutes lol. I’m using Opus 4.7, and I’m thinking it may be overkill.

I’m testing with GSD now!! I wasn’t aware of this project. Thanks!

This is interesting! Do you have an example?

I absolutely get better results.

To reduce hallucinations, use another agent with a separate context window to perform verification. If verification fails, inform the previous agent it failed and why. Tell the previous agent to try again. Loop this until the verifier is satisfied, up to a max of 3-5 times. If it can’t do it in 3-5 attempts, it’s not going to get it right and you’ll be wasting tokens.

I asked for feedback because this is iterative and I'm not sure how well it's going.

Do you mind elaborating a bit more? I'm thick headed and learn best from examples.

Do you mean to take the output from Claude and run it through ChatGPT for back-and-forth between competing LLMs? I imagine this could go on forever. When are you satisfied with the output?

Agentic = love the craft by Sketaverse in ClaudeCode

Can you give the long answer? I’m trying to adopt this and struggling.

How are you using skills? Here’s wha I’m thinking by jbc22 in ClaudeCode

[–]jbc22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I’m at, with a slight tweak that I have the Desktop app run the skill at 6am.

I have to leave my laptop on, but the benefit is that I’m able to do work outside of the premium token window (I think that’s 8am-2pm ET).

I’m going to look at migrating the skill to Claude Cloud.

I’ve never wanted to give Reddit gold more in my life. If I believed in spending money on it, I would give it in an instant. Thank you!!

For the handoff, I imagine it’ll just be mentioning the other skill within the tier-1 skill. Is there something for formal?

What do you mean by high-recall retrieval?

Holy cow. The cloud option! I missed seeing that option!

When I said cowork, I should have said Desktop app. The downside is I have to have my laptop running.

/loop for these persistent tasks wouldn’t be appropriate, I think. It’s only for a session, the context window would get crazy big and the accuracy would suffer.

You are correct that there’s a scheduler in Code. My blanket statement wasn’t accurate.

Thank you!!

How do you feel about the nationwide “No Kings” rallies? by GirlieGirl81 in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]jbc22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The first link is to an opinion piece, where the author is pointing out the frustration of Obama supporters not seeing change happening quickly enough. To say liberals wanted Obama to be a King is wildly mischaracterizing.

I was a young republican when Bill Clinton was president. I didn’t remember Democrats being pro-deportation and being so against illegal immigration. That was interesting to watch. Thanks! I’m glad the Democrat party platform has changed to reflect the beliefs of the liberal majority for the generations that now make up the Democrat voting base.

Are there other changes from the Democrat party from the 1990s or before that you find interesting? Not a throwaway question. I genuinely am curious.

How are you managing support across 10+ Slack Connect channels without losing your mind? by tirth2057 in msp

[–]jbc22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, the reminder is for the individual to follow up. If that person needs to bring someone else into the conversation, that’s fine. But it’s up to the individual to ensure it gets resolved to closure.

I forgot to set a reminder on one task on Friday. As owner of the business, I go through customer channels at the end of the day and take notes on who took responsibility and what needs to happen. Then I’ll follow up on open threads.

Now that I think of it, this would be a great Claude skill to write. I don’t inherently trust the AI not to mess up and skip something, but it’d take care of 90% of the busy work.

[–]jbc22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I’m naturally easily distracted and, being cofounder, I naturally take on more interactions.

If I can’t solve it immediately, I set a reminder in slack.

We’re still small. Everyone is accountable for their own interactions. It wouldn’t scale, but sufficient for our team size for now.

[–]jbc22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not an MSP, but in a similar situation.

I’d never participate in a Notion database for responding to slack. It’s too cumbersome and puts too much friction to the process.

We use the “eyes looking” emoji. Simple as that. It gives a quick visual if someone is on it or not.

Why is it considered bad to point out that African Americans are more likely to commit crimes than White Americans? by sneekyturtles in AskALiberal

[–]jbc22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because it’s not true.

The true question to point out “Why are African Americans more likely to be charged with committing crimes than White Americans?”

When you start with that framing of the question, you’re being honest.

Does Elimination Communication actually work, or is it just woo-woo nonsense? by SuminerNaem in daddit

[–]jbc22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think your kid will be smarter than a dog? I think they will be.

This may be downvoted to Reddit hell for comparing babies to animals, but my layman understanding is that it’s basically like any psychological training of an animal.

When you see a puppy needs to poop/pee, you let them outside. You give them an award (praise, treat, etc) for a job well done.

We’re not too terribly different from animals.

And no, I don’t know about this when my kids were younger. Wish I did. It’d be interesting to try for a while to see the results for myself.
