• nobody should patronize those who newly have opinions about third party evaluators. non-experts forming opinions fast is part of the american tradition. the constitution itself was, in a very important sense, vibe coded by 20 somethings with concepts of a plan. but newbies being fleeced is also part of the american tradition. “caveat emptor” is a provision of a contract signed by an adult, not some god-given right to be treated as something other than a little child. you will be treated as a child no matter what. you are the buyer. it is your job to beware.

• It's cool that there is more interest in eval tools! Some opportunities for improvement: 1. Right now, this workflow tries to quiz you up front about your recollection of your experience with a plugin. It would be better if it was more "in-situ", meaning you could give feedback on the plugins as you are using them. 2. It goes off and builds datasets and judges automatically based on what you tell it in up front as well as what's documented in the plugin. I would like to see it try to do error discovery with you first to allow you to annotate real traces / session history etc so you can figure…

• It's interesting how much (some) people are adopting AI-isms in writing even when not using AI. It makes sense that people would fall into the same patterns after seeing them everywhere, but it's still very weird to, live, watch someone who never used to write like this, write out something that's full of "It's not X, it's Y", etc. If you actually read it, it's a little too well reasoned and doesn't have enough nonsense phrases to be AI writing but, superficially, it's very AI-coded writing.
