  Coding agents should read the shared AGENTS.md convention; insisting on a tool-specific CLAUDE.md creates split-brain problems across a team.

  I’m thinking about banning Claude code at Shopify until they change their mind and read AGENTS.md and .agents/skills etc. Insisting on only reading CLAUDE.md sometimes leads to split brain problems when different team members use different tools. Just unnecessary.

  You cannot really understand the code you write unless you are also the one operating it.

  Their words

  That was always a bad idea because it's split brain. Half of you are writing the code and the other half are understanding it. I would argue that you can't really understand the code you write unless you're operating it.

  Transit investment should prioritize raising ridership on already well-used lines over creating minimal service where none exists.

  Their words

  it's more important to invest in trains that can get more riders than just the railfans; taking a line from 0% to 5% modal split is less important than taking it from 20% to 40%

  By Machiavelli's day the Guelph and Ghibelline split had no doctrinal content left in it: it meant only that those people murdered Uncle Tibalt.

  Their words

  These are the two factions for which these parties fought originally. 300 years ago, these days what these factions actually mean is those jerks murdered Uncle Tibalt and we will never forgive them.

  Users split into two camps on seeing an agent's work, and the split has not faded as trust builds, so an interface has to balance both.

  Their words

  I initially assumed this was a temporary divide. New users tend to watch closely and check the system's progress, but as trust builds, that scrutiny fades and monitoring starts to feel like a chore. Yet it still seems like there's two camps (for now).

  Even with human-like learners, competition will split the AI market into specialised niches rather than hand it to one company.

  Their words

  I think what's going to happen is that the way competition like competition loves specialization and you see it in the market, you see it in evolution as well. So you're going to have lots of different niches and you're going to have lots of different companies who are occupying different niches

  AI does not remove a job so much as change what it consists of, and knowing exactly where a model's capabilities stop is now part of being a good engineer.

  Their words

  take prompting and as an engineer, there's a range of prompting abilities. uh the way you discretize and split up your task matters. And if you assume that uh a model can do more than it can do, then you're going to have a bad time.

  Maths is essential schooling: it trains you to split big problems into small ones and to think for yourself, the same skill programming, project management and founding a company need.

  Their words

  Yeah. I still think math is essential. It's something that shapes your brain, it teaches you to rely on your logical thinking to split big problems into smaller parts, put them in the right sequence, solve them patiently, trying again if it doesn't work.

  Their words

  Yeah, I think overabundance paralyzes motivation and willpower. It's extremely harmful, particularly for young boys, to grow up in an environment where they can be proud, not of their own achievements, but of their father's achievements or their father's wealth.

  The decision to split the German forces away from Moscow was taken by a Hitler who had just been given his first intravenous opioid, and that is probably why Moscow never fell.

  Russia

  Their words

  So Hitler receives this Dolantin injection, and he gets up, he goes into the meeting room, he dominates the meeting room, he feels great. He decides, you know, in front of everybody, no one is able to… no one overpowers him in that meeting. He was very good in the room. And the troops are split up. Like Leningrad is now a target. This weakens the general thrust towards Moscow. This is probably why they didn't take Moscow.

  There will be no single best model but a market of them, the way the database market split into analytics stores and transactional stores.

  Their words

  And actually the reason I think it's exciting is if you look at like the database space right now there's not one database. If you want to do largecale data analytics you'll choose one thing. If you want to do a transactional data store you'll do another. I think we're moving to that area of models
