I recently did some tests on two MCPs with identical functionalities. Turns out one of them has really bad performance. So I wanna share those bad MCP design patterns that cause this. It all started when I wrote an MCP Server (MCP-A) for a to-do list app. Later, the app officially released its own MCP Server (MCP-B). Both MCPs have the same functionalities and hit the same backend API. The experiment is set up as follows: - Both MCP Servers connect to the same ToDo list account, and it will be r

Problem: I constantly save Instagram Reels/TikToks about restaurants, events, pop-ups, and things to do, but I always forget about them because they get buried in my saves. Solution: I built Cork. You can send a Reel or Tiktok directly to Cork without even needing to leave the app, and Cork will automatically extract the info in the reel and save it in a map + calendar.

Hello everyone. In the last two years I spent, as a dev, part of my free time stretching the limits of my knowledge. Not being a mathematician myself, I discovered that formalizing concepts in mathematical language could nonetheless be useful to improve symbolic reasoning about the concepts themselves. I made use of both books and AI, and I followed the development of the latter, mainly with a critical eye. I have several open projects, and from some observations and explorations on one of them

Most of us were amused when DALL-E and its peers went mainstream, and we were quick to point out the obvious flaws. Then ChatGPT hit the scene and again, many of us dismissed it as a parlor trick that would never amount to much. Using LLMs for coding initially was a only small step up from basic code completion, and a welcome farewell to Stack Overflow. I am curious: what was the specific moment that you went from those quaint, dismissive observations to a slightly panicked, "Uh Oh" realization
