    @BenUNC oh, I see! I tend to use "please" because written stuff gets misconstrued (as you implied with your reply, thanks).

    If I open with "please" I don't overuse it; my tone in the rest carries the scent of that - so I can then be briefer, as you suggested.

    Sometimes I forget that tone doesn't carry in text, and sometimes it bites me, and then I remember to think about it more.

    Interested in citations about how people react to differently worded pleasantries!

    @BenUNC #OpenCuts (the system i developed open-cuts.org/) is somewhat being used at @ubports for the #UbportsInstaller ( ubports.open-cuts.org/system/5 ), but that's not what I would consider "at scale", just a proof of concept.

    I know that @kuleszdl had been working on something similar ( systemtestportal.org/ ), maybe he knows larger running endeavors?

    There definitely is potential to this approach, would be very interesting to see what it can do for WordPress!

    Hint: a person who *feels* heard and valued is WAY less likely to react negatively.

    Old habits die hard, but I just spent 15 minutes digging through stack overflow to figure out why my bash script was not working, only to realize that chatGPT takes 20 seconds to isolate the problem.

    And it explained why my actual code was wrong. Not some sorta-similar code that the poster had.

    Fun facts:
    1. I lived within 30 miles of Interstate 40 (in 5 cities across 2 states) for 40 years. I broke that streak in 2020.
    2. I used to have significantly more hair.

    Now, your turn.

    Going neck deep in some more end-to-end testing today.

    I figure if we build this thing one brick at a time, at the end of a year, I'll have a little brick QA shack by the end of it.

    "Designed well, a knowledge base ensures agents have access to up-to-date and comprehensive organizational knowledge. Ultimately, this improves the consistency, accuracy, responsiveness, and governance of agentic responses and actions.

    The benefits are clear. But what actually goes into such a repository?
    (...)
    A knowledge base for AI agents can hold many things: documentation, policies, style guides, sample code, workflows, compliance rules, and more. “A knowledge base for AI agents contains the full spectrum of a company’s operational reality,” says Igor Beninca, data science manager at Indicium, a data and AI services firm.

    Because enterprise data varies widely, a knowledge base will combine structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data. It should span everything from static rules to dynamic chat conversations. Really, any data that could be vectorized for training AI is fair game. That said, some common content types shine through for AI agent use cases."
