When combining models: co-failures cluster by format, not subject; measure beta before routing.

Cuts through ensemble hype with empirical limits; essential for architecting multi-model agents (routing, MoA).

Agent design = solid prompt engineering + systems thinking; avoid hype-driven confusion.

Grounded take on agent fundamentals (prompt + architecture), useful reality-check for practitioners.

3-hour deep agents course: task planning, file-system context, subagents, long-term memory.

Directly applicable patterns for multi-agent coordination and context engineering—core to OpenClaw and agentic systems.

Open models beat closed APIs on $/token; eval reporting should use dollar-cost metrics not token counts.

Cost-per-token reasoning directly impacts which models to ship with in agent systems and how to benchmark them.

Loop engineering (agent iteration) is prompt engineering plus good system design.

Sharp, reusable insight: frames agent building as combination of prompt tuning and architectural discipline—transferable mental model.

BINEVAL: decompose LLM-as-judge evals into atomic yes/no questions for inspectable, calibrated scoring & debugging.

Directly applicable to agent evals and prompt improvement loops; shows how to build transparent, debuggable judgment systems.

NVIDIA's SOLAR automates speed-of-light workload analysis from PyTorch/JAX source code.

Useful context on deterministic performance bounds but not directly actionable for agent-building workflows; good bookmark for optimization

Open harness advances (RAG, Moltbook) depend on quality of upstream models from small set of labs.

Maps OSS leveraging patterns in agent/harness space—useful context for tool selection but not a direct technique.

Open-source harness innovation thrives independently; frontier open-weights models depend on closed labs' intelligence.

Frames dependency chain in LLM tooling ecosystem—context useful for agent platform strategy, but not actionable.

Agents progress opposite to humans: knowledge→context→agency; humans: execution→problem-solving→discovery.

Dogfooding and team velocity matter more than CI/CD automation alone.

Speed matters more than people think; smaller/faster models often outdo assumptions about capability needs.

A 750tok/s frontier model would be more impactful than 'rich people mythos'—speed/efficiency beats scale narratives.

GLM lacks vision natively; some tools auto-route images to fallback models, but Opencode refuses—design tradeoff lesson.
