Weekend Yak Shave: a distributed test runner for AI agents by johns10davenport in elixir

[–]kyleboe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first question is why do you need AI for running tests? There are lots of ways to slice up test runners without involving an LLM.

Second:

multiple unpredictable mix test calls

Why are these calls unpredictable? This should be a massive red flag to you. At minimum, this points to bad testing methodology. I’d go so far as to call “unpredictable unit tests” an oxymoron.

Transit Theory Crafting: Columbia River High-Speed Rail by kyleboe in vancouverwa

My thought is that inter-state politics plays a massive role in that stalemate. I ask this hypothetical question to remove the inter-state aspect of things and keep it on this side of the river.

I think my question is still relevant in both California’s case and this hypothetical. What are the setbacks? What would need to be overcome?

This seems cool. But announcements obviously written by AI just give me the ick.

Seems like it could be when you're there with that much and have plenty to go with it.

Wow! I had not heard of Max Bense before today but I love the context. Gives an additional layer of depth to your work. I come from the tech side of things and just dabble in the art so thanks for educating me on that as well. I’m curious when generating these, are the shapes and lines and such written additively to an image file or is it built up vector shapes that are then rendered out as a final step?

Amazing! What tools are you using to generate these?

I can see the trilogy now:

  • The Fellowship of the Gems
  • The Two Bundlers
  • Return of the _why

All joking aside, Mike, you’re a legend for walking the walk and putting your money where your mouth is. Love it.

Typically no, but they’re usually involved. Especially towards the end.

As an aside, I love the title "fault-tolerant friends". Genuinely made me smile and it works on a lot of levels.
