JSON has to be one of the least token-efficient ways to generate structured AI responses. GPT insists on indenting and every space is a token! YAML is ok, but haven't found anything better than CSV so far.

I wouldn't trust GPT to generate binary data like protobuf. And CSV has a lot of limitations. Time for a new encoding language that's natural language based, token-efficient, and robust to LLMs messing up syntax?

Replying to @AristaNetworks
@AristaNetworks gets it. Telemetry is a phenomenally powerful tool but I don't want to have to roll my own tool to consume it. CloudVision leverages the power of real-time telemetry to provide meaningful insights into the operational state of your network. #NFD30

Blown away at the intuitiveness and usefulness of this platform: It's hard to explain, but in the demo we got here so easily! 1. Search for device IP 2. See "heat map" of busy traffic 3. See busiest flows 4. Attached image shows up. Incredible @nfd30

Any React devs out there want to help me build a @SiteofRefuge for Ukrainian refugees? It’s a small, great team looking for help on a time-critical project!

Nice primer on why you can’t automatically reject every prop California throws on the ballot.

Well this is terrifying: wildfires can produce clouds large enough to create lightening strikes... that can start even more wildfires en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flam…

Pretty impressed that the docs of a @getsentry *beta* feature are twice as good as a years-old feature in any other product: docs.sentry.io/performance/d…

👋 Hey front-end developer friends. Wanna beta a new tool we're building to help you understand the performance of your production SPAs? I'd really value your feedback 🙏
