By learning Agile Product Management before shifting to a SAFe-like program increment planning event, groups can shorten the program increment being planned to 2-4 sprints instead of the normal 5-7. In our view, these gains should be met before the end of the next program increment. Taglines. See more here.

LLMs Demand Observability-Driven Development

Honeycomb

Natural languages, on the other hand, are infinitely more expressive than programming languages, query languages, or even a UI that users interact with. Neural nets are also inherently stochastic, because GPU calculations around floating point operations are inherently nondeterministic. Early access programs won’t help you.
