There is that, there are a handful of companies with mono repo they have solved the checkout build deploy test cycle. The other approach is the separate the monorepo for build deploy and test loop.

I don’t really get Herdr it’s terminal with integrated tmux ?

It looks like crap.

Why would I want the terminal coding agents inside of a GUI app? The idea is terrible.

The first point in the explanations below makes no sense, claiming my agents will "keep working" if I close my notebook's lid or disconnect the network.

This is obviously not the case.


Some people like to run their agents on different headless servers. Herdr is cool because you can connect via ssh and use herdr on that machine from anywhere. When you close the client or disconnect, herdr is still running on the host.

> Why would I want the terminal coding agents inside of a GUI app?

Because they get difficult to manage with enough of them and multiple projects. The GUI helps them stay organized, especially with multiple harnesses. Herdr is a minimal GUI, and works like a simple tmux, which is why I like it.


My mental model (and I don't really use it) is it's agent-aware tmux.

It isn’t ? ;) celestial bodies Are memorable

Yes. Also, celestial bodies are not ordered. And remembering them doesn't do anything for estimating the power level of a particular LLM named after it.

What’s the specific example and how does it work

Really? there would be complaints, it’s expensive and doesn’t do as well


When it's happened to me, I shrugged and went back to the way I did things before. Then again, I'm not a vocal social media user by any means.


There are fees thou and i cant imagine they are losing out as a business


100% sentences like i convinced it or made it admit are just weird But how else to describe the situation


there is an established term for this behaviour: hallucination.

lets me rephrase what i said before as on retrospection the point i was trying to make didnt come across:

Asking the model such as question is a pointless endeavor. It will pretty much always answer in a plausible sounding manner to whatever question you gave it.

Its like another top HN story - an opus5 parody site right now, https://opusfived.dev/

pretty much the whole dialog is plausible given the prompts the user is required to make to illustrate the point the author of the site wanted to make... but the thing thats ironic about the site is that ... if youre prompting the model badly, it outputs garbage. though i'm pretty sure the author didn't want to make that point, to me its a perfect illustration of this.

And the same applies to asking the model to explain themselves and the related question. Asking for a source of the term is fine, and it will either respond with one and its cleared up -- or not and you know its a hallucination. nothing special about it, as they constantly hallucinating. its usually just self-correcting during the agentic loop.


"Asking the model such as question is a pointless endeavor."

It used a medical term that is not an actual term. I asked it to explain how and why it would do this, having a rudimentary understanding of the technology. I learned the technical reason. How is that a pointless endeavour to learn more about the tool I was using?

Using a term like "admit" assumes the reader (on a technical site) understands the context and what is being suggested. A bit like someone saying, "The landscape spoke to me." I don't reply to the landscape architect and say "Mate, the landscape can't actually speak" because I understand the sentiment and getting pedantic is pointless in that moment.


The word "admit" conveys a context of "fault". If you're going to say a similar thing about the landscape admitting to something then I'd be callimg you crazy, yeah.

The ai psychosis in this case it's specifically because of the used word. Same story as with words like "love" etc

> Confess or acknowledge: Agreeing that a fact, mistake, or crime is real.

And I can see were really barreling down the road of stupidity on this comment chain with one person being more idiotic then the next


big tech is moving / has moved away from the role.


Unfortunately for the users, testing has been pushed to them. You can deploy whatever slop you want - nobody cares. More lines of code!


Isn’t this a tyre quality thing


Why would I ask a LLM a rhetorical question


For context? Idk, I do it all the time... that is not because it's LLM, but because i'm wired that way. I tend to think out aloud.
