Finally! This is great, now I can stop dropping CLAUDEmd files which just contain "@AGENTSmd" Quoting @trq212 We're adding support for AGENTS.md to Claude Code. Starting today in version 2.1.277, if there is no CLAUDE.md in a folder, Claude will check for and use AGENTS.md. You can toggle this behavior in /config. Related

Not only are wave functions real, but they contain the soul and can be lassoed with rope! Take that, Psi-epistemologists. Quoting @neuroskeptic.bsky.social The soul is real and can be tied with a rope according to this graphical abstract. The paper is even weirder!

I just deleted a post I made yesterday, because it led some people to reasonably read things into it that I didn’t intend. That’s on me, as I wrote it badly and without considering contexts beyond what I was thinking at the time. My apologies to anyone who read it and was disheartened or upset; I’m happy to discuss further in DMs with those who saw it and would like clarification on what I meant. Related

Just updated our AI evals FAQ with 5 new questions, 48 questions & answers total! New FAQs just added: - Do I need a reference answer or rubric before annotating data? - How can I do evals when traces contain sensitive data? - How do you review a trace that is really large? - How much context should I give a LLM judge? - What should I do when my “gold” eval dataset becomes stale? It's all here: hamel.dev

op deleted his tweet (thanks I guess) but I get a ton of questions about why I sometimes limit replies, and if you’d like to know the answer you can look below. Quoting @deanwball @sponkostonko I limit my replies when it occurs to me to do so to make it slightly harder for people to threaten me and my family with violence, which happens frequently in my life now. It still happens, but at least with replies limited my wife is less likely to see it. Related

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
