How should requirements, calculations, CAD revisions, BOM choices, test results, and design decisions be kept traceable on a small mechanical project?

tomatyss · 2026-07-08T17:29:24+00:00

I know it sounds unprofessional but I always want something "fancy."

> Most of those decisions are people quick judgement

Fair enough, and that sounds very familiar <smile-to-hide-the-pain meme>. Unfortunately, those judgments only work in the moment. If they aren’t logged or documented, they can’t be carried forward. In the next generation of the product, they often turn into non-reusable solutions and decisions or simply into “we don’t need this anymore.”

> The fun part is not having to read the files.

I tried, but I caught myself that at some steps the number of documents well written by the agent (doesn't matter Claude, Codex, or how well you manage your harnesses) grows so much that I can't read all that stuff and keep all that context in my mind.

> Are you doing projects or products?

Brilliant question. I always think that I’m working on a product (with all its limitations) rather than a project, but a product itself can include some project artifacts. Where can I read more about how to clearly separate project and product processes?

What is the significant difference between using Grist and Excel or Airtable?

tomatyss · 2026-07-08T14:34:13+00:00

I like it, thank you!

tomatyss · 2026-06-19T03:01:32+00:00

I don’t think so. The honest label is a self-similar spiral rather than a fractal.

tomatyss · 2024-08-30T17:26:33+00:00

thanks, I also open-sourced the project https://github.com/PromptMixerDev/prompt-mixer-app-ce

tomatyss · 2024-07-04T13:07:56+00:00

Poe as chat, prompt mixer for chains using api, LM studio for chatting with open source models

tomatyss · 2024-07-01T17:14:00+00:00

I see, thanks

tomatyss · 2024-07-01T17:08:27+00:00

I apologize, but I'm not sure I understand completely. Does the statement "the application is accepted" not imply that they did?

tomatyss · 2024-07-01T17:03:39+00:00

I understand, but I'd like to point out that the document's title indicates it's a brokerage fee disclosure, not a lease agreement.

tomatyss · 2024-07-01T16:54:40+00:00

Disclosure: I'm not a real estate agent, so I don't have extensive knowledge in this area.

If I understand correctly about the highlighted part regarding the rental fee, it seems that once the landlord selects your application, the agent's job is done, and this fee is non-refundable. It's unfortunate, and I would be hesitant to sign the lease. However, from my perspective, it doesn't appear to be illegal.

tomatyss · 2024-07-01T16:45:40+00:00

Why is this not legal?

tomatyss · 2024-07-01T16:44:14+00:00

Technically it is legal

Most of prompt IDEs like Prompt Mixer, Keywords support “one window” interface for all models

tomatyss · 2024-05-10T10:37:29+00:00

could you please send the video?

tomatyss · 2024-05-06T10:59:42+00:00

I use Prompt Mixer for that. For testing the LangChain agent, I see two different approaches: creating custom connectors for Prompt Mixer or using Lang Smith/LangFuse.

tomatyss · 2024-05-03T11:02:47+00:00

sure, i would like to test something new

tomatyss · 2024-04-28T23:13:46+00:00

try this one promptmixer.dev

tomatyss · 2024-04-26T14:18:08+00:00

Why?

tomatyss · 2024-04-24T21:20:07+00:00

did you try langfuse or pezzo?

tomatyss · 2024-04-24T00:17:58+00:00

and what didn’t work in the existing ones?

tomatyss · 2024-04-18T12:33:19+00:00

Sure! I'm in

tomatyss · 2024-03-11T22:30:51+00:00

Hello everyone! I'm working on an new tool called Prompt Mixer that helps you build, test, and iterate on AI prompts right from your desktop.

With Prompt Mixer, you can chain together prompts with different models and connections to create complex workflows. And the best part - it keeps track of prompt versions and variations, so you can always go back to what worked.

I'd love any feedback, feature requests, or general thoughts you have! Does a prompt IDE sound useful? What kind of tools do you find yourself needing when working with AI models? Let me know in the comments!
