The best thing I did for my AI code agent was delete most of it. Eight tools became two, and accuracy went from 60% to 95%. It can now take a codebase it's never seen and answer this in one shot. Here's everything I removed to get there:

@cerebras Introducing deterministic, well thought out agent tools, and concise predictable system prompts lets a 100b or 200b parameter model perform the same or better than any flagship llm

@yacineMTB The Gemini 3, kimi, and DeepSeek fusion performance is the biggest thing on that chart

@jackprice Real software has been boring. Most code in big companies is written in boring large java or c# codebases and isn’t ui/ux

@yacineMTB I don’t really think there’s ever a good argument for using eminent domain to place more 500kv lines just for a data center that literally no one in that city voted for

[Sam @Samballington]

@yacineMTB The water thing isn’t an actual issue, but in my state there are predatory power company’s (Ga power) that are using eminent domain to take peoples homes, then there’s the issue of completely useless city boards who ignore what the actual residents want

@IamAroke The value of senior engineers is understanding large existing systems deeply, not creating new ones. The engineeers I’ve met who were the best at new systems were junior level who had fresh insights. Those are two different skills
