Last call! Enrollment for Cohort 2 of The AI Second Brain closes tonight at midnight PT Our next (and last) cohort this year starts Thursday Here's what you'll walk away with: • Stop re-explaining yourself to every new AI chat. Build one document it reads first, so it already knows you • Connect AI to your notes and files safely, so its answers come from your real situation, not a guess • Get every file and note organized once, synced everywhere, so you stop hunting for the right document • Capture your best ideas the moment they happen, so nothing gets buried in your inbox or forgotten by Fr… Related

✅ Yes the code matters In experiments we ran, well-named and organized code can dramatically improve agent outcomes: - fewer tokens spent/more context window preserved - fewer confidently wrong answers developed Verified against 14 model/harness combos incl Sol, Fable, GLM 5.2 and more Quoting @benv.ca 👋 New blog post: "How coding agents read files – and how to write for them" In it I explain how code optimized for agent-discovery can lead to major token savings on search + retrieval, even with frontier models like GPT-5.6 Sol Plus other important findings ⬇️ Related

Their words
John Boyer’s Austria 1867-1955 offers parts of the answer, though not in a conceptually organized way. It’s a work of history written for specialists, which means that the narrative serves the footnotes rather than the other way around.

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.
