Thanks a lot to @vocodehq and @arpagon for keeping Vocode open source and letting us all learn about the internals of voice agents. Here are the slides for my talk at #PyDataBerlin today speakerdeck.com/tmylk/building…
Looking forward to speaking at #PyDataBerlin next week about AI voice agents.

So... we lost the venue for this Sunday’s techno party. 🙁 Anyone know another place in Berlin that can host us on short notice? We bring our own sound system and air filters but we need 1. Outdoor space to test 2. Indoor space to dance 4. Sun or Sat night 5. Fits 50 people

I'm excited to be able share the recording of the #MobProgramming workshop I gave at #PyConDE2023. You'll see how we approached Mob Programming with a larger audience of ~80 people. youtube.com/watch?v=T_sx05…
Our "#TDD with #LangChain as an #Ensemble" meetup was a blast today. Thanks to everyone for coming! Task list to follow by yourself in the repo github.com/tmylk/when-is-… Join the Data Crafters meetup for more events like this. meetup.com/berlin-data-cr… #mobprogramming
Really enjoyed giving a talk "Prompt Engineering 101: Beginner intro to @LangChain, the shovel of our #ChatGPT gold rush" at #pyconde23 Slides and repo speakerdeck.com/tmylk/prompt-e… github.com/tmylk/langchai…
Facilitated a huge mob of 80 people today at #pyconde23 together with @teagermylk and it worked. The solution the mob came up with is the best I had seen so far. #MobProgramming

@_lewtun @lmsysorg @PSH_Lewis @sophiaalthammer @olapiktus and others published a paper on arXiv today that advocates for using an ensemble of judges (panel of LLMs; PoLL). Their evaluation includes an ablation comparing different prompt variants. arxiv.org/abs/2404.18796
I just taught (NB: I'm not responsible for their assessment) a class of ten, in-person—and we were all masked!

@GregKamradt I don't see LLMs as systems that can to create new knowledge, I see them as a tool I can use to help ME create new knowledge
1/ Every established therapist I know & respect is full. They’re not taking new patients & they’re too overwhelmed to respond to inqiries. As connected in the profession as I am, even I can’t find trusted colleagues taking referrals Yet I see comments like this all the time,
From a therapist's perspective, what pays the most is not effective therapy. It's making the client feel good enough about the session to schedule more. This antagonistic incentive misalignment is not unique to therapy. But once you see it there, you see it everywhere.
Too bad academic psychologists don't know psychoanalysts have been writing for >100yrs about how we recreate relationship patterns—shaped by early formative relationships & endlessly repeated Paul Wachtel introduced term “cyclical psychodynamics” for this apa.org/pubs/journals/…

In 2023 we saw several rounds of quality conversation around engineering productivity, thanks to McKinsey, @GergelyOrosz and @KentBeck and others. It moved the industry forwards. 🙌 But it also felt fairly inside baseball to me. Deeply technical, lots of metrics.

My plumber charges more than $150 per hour And what you’re selling has *nothing* to do w actual psychotherapy It always comes down to this: Real therapy is a meaningful human relationship & relationships don’t scale. So every startup sells something ELSE—and calls it “therapy"
Real therapy is VERY expensive, it can be $75-$150/hour for a good therapist That means weekly sessions with a real therapist can cost you $300 to $600 per month Also a real therapist isn't available 24/7, try calling them at 4am? Nights often are the darkest of times mentally,…
@JonathanShedler It’s a little surreal to see the two worlds I have a foot in colliding like this. This ‘product’ has engendered a lot of the same sort of reactions in the software development community though dismayingly also a lot of cheerleaders.
1/ The “warning sign” of countertransference is that there are two people present and at least one is breathing Transference and countertransference are with us every single moment. They cannot be eliminated, nor would it be desirable to eliminate it even if it were possible

No, venting is not part of therapy. Of course, ppl do vent, but it’s up to therapist to help them move beyond that (& understand how/why “venting” is a defense against doing the real work). The fact that you think this tells us how unqualified you are to discuss topic of therapy
