It makes sense to me, but I have some prior CRM context.

My interpretation is:

Context.dev service API key to retrieve company logo, industry, and socials for a company domain […that agent had identified]


I don’t any experience with CRMs, but I’ve had some discussions with a coworker about a skunk works project idea: mining our emails for “incidents” from our client’s representatives. Most of our emails falls into one bucket: sharing, or explaining some financial data. Once I a while there is an issue. Big issues flow up the chain of command. Small issues are knocked out. The question is, are these frequent but small issues indicative of a gap in our management. We don’t know what the other party is saying or thinking amongst themselves. There could be a simmering problem.

I’m still trying to get my head around what the heck we could do about it.

So I read this,

“…reports that something happened — a thread was ingested, a company was created, an attendee is unknown — by writing a row to a queue. The agent leases that row and decides what it means.”

I’m thinking, hmm. Yes. Something did happen. I want to know, what kind of something? how often does it happen?

I start to get upset stomach thinking this could be used against me in a court of boss’s opinions.

So my application is all skunk works. But is what I’m trying to understand “CRM” as you know it? Tangent of it?


Totally agree. I think with Opus 5 something changed that I catch myself rereading and reparsing prose way more than before. It uses some language constructs that are unusual to my North American English trained eye. I can’t quickly read it. It’s just dense.

I think it just gets really into the weeds and assumes you have full context. I do find myself saying "You have more context than me—can you restate the question in simple terms?" It does well then.

To be fair, I don't find this to be new with Opus 5, but maybe it is slightly more pronounced.


It’s felt like this since 4.7 to me. I have mistral medium rewrite almost everything that’s text Claude outputs.

If you work from home you will absolutely need an office when you have kids.


At the same time I can get store brand ice cream for €1.50 per box of 6 that has two or three ingredients and tastes delicious. That’s in Portugal.


This has been going on for a decade.


Inbefore extreme NIMBY


There’s a very clear anti-building conspiracy in Canada. I can only think that someone must be limiting supply to keep prices high to protect profits.

Because my friend had the craziest protectionism story.

He wanted to build a multi family home on his existing lot.

Of course all kinds of studies need to be done. One of them is a tree study. Which costs $3,000 alone per tree. He hired firm and they were doing a study (for building purposes).

Then one day a crew shows up and cuts the tree all of a sudden. Turns out that his neighbour, unknown to him, was complaining that the tree was creating too much shade. So without any study they just came and cut it down.

That’s before even his study results came back.


Agreed. Look at the light rail project in Ottawa for an example of Canadian land issues, timelines and quality. It’s a disaster.


Countries can’t be best friends. Each country will always act in self interest.


Maybe from all those stolen API keys?
