• Issue with mouse hover

  I've just installed Sonoma and it works mostly ok. Though I've ran into this issue where the OS doesn't seem to know where my mouse is until I click. The cursor itself is displayed where it should be and all, but if I right click something on the dock then I can't really click anything in the menu.

• Brainwash Your Agent: How We Keep The Memory Clean

  You ask your agent to get a list of the top available free books on ML mathematics and then create a CSV of each book, a description, subject, prerequisites, link, etc. The agent searches the web, finds a few titles, but can’t read some of the books available on archive.org website. It tries a few things, searches for a while, and finally, figures out a way to do this successfully. The agent has spent five minutes... - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
