To me, Before agentic programming a harness was like a mini framework in the app. Like for testing mostly. You’d set up the harness and configure it for your test and it would take care of boilerplate setup / optional reporting / benchmarks ect. Still works for both - but yea need a new word I guess

From a naming terms yes, the closest equivalent of the past is the term "framework". Having written a Go service framework that's how I perceived it and as I started to work on agents, anything related to that became an "agent harness". I guess naming and terms change with different paradigms.

Sweet

thanks!

I had the same experience. Im glad I’m not crazy

Thanks for letting me know book two is out!

What about some thing like

I don’t get how congress doesn’t have the power to deny/approve this war. Dont even impeach, dont you have to get congressional approval for this stuff?

> [The Congress shall have Power ...] To declare War,

One might even think that not getting Congress's permission, as required, might be an impeachable offense.

But you should read about [the War Powers Clause](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Powers_Clause#History_and_...), and in particular, our messy, messy history with it starting at the Korean War and continuing to the present day.

Same. It’s wild how bad it can get with just like a normal longer running conversation

My sister in laws xfinity router / app has a new feature banner for “detecting motion in your house with WiFi for no additional cost”

I took a screenshot to share if anyone is interested

Questions of mass surveillance aside, I always wonder how useful these things (motion detection when you're not home) actually are given how many American households have dogs and cats.

How does having a dog or cat make this less useful? It detects motion, and it can still do that with pets.

I'm assuming you really meant "detect human motion", which I don't think is a solvable problem at this point in time, at least with high accuracy.

I wouldn't be surprised if they can't tell the difference between a person and pet. Also wouldn't be surprised if they used that data to push pet food ads at you somewhere or just sold that info to a data broker.

IIRC most motion-sensing home devices are tuned to ignore pets, as best as they are able. They don't get it right 100% of the time though.

AirPod pros noise cancellation gave me my tinnitus. Just as a warning to others be careful. There’s an apple support page with lots of people complaining about the same thing.

It's interesting. I guess the algorithm moves the pod diaphragm to try to oppose external noise but must push the ear drum out of it's design range.

I have tinnitus. My theory of how it arises is the bit of the ear that converts spatial movement to electrical signals - some hairs tied to an ion channel basically - gets moved too far and breaks the thing in such a way that the channel jams open.

The noise pro stuff may be worse than regular loud noises as the ear recognises loud noises and tries to protect itself but may not do that with the noise cancellation movements.

Interesting. Thanks for that
