History

For a long time I've been really impacted by the ease of use Cassandra and CockroachDB bring to operating a data store at scale. While these systems have very different tradeoffs what they have in common is how easy it is to deploy and operate a cluster. I have experience with them with cluster sizes in the dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of nodes and in comparison to some other clustered technologies they get you far pretty fast. They have sane defaults that provide scale and high availability to people that wouldn't always understand how to achieve it with more complex systems. People can get pretty far before they have to become experts. When you start needing more extreme usage you will need to become an expert of the system just like any other piece of infrastructure. But what I really love about these systems is it makes geo-aware data placement, GDPR concerns potentially simplified and data replication and movement a breeze most of the time.

Overview of 26 prompt principles

#Principle	Prompt Principle	Example Prompt
1	If you prefer more concise answers, no need to be polite with LLM so there is no need to add phrases like “please", "if you don't mind", "thank you", "I would like to", etc., and get straight to the point.	~~Could you kindly describe the structure of a human cell, please?~~ Describe the structure of a human cell.
2	Integrate the intended audience in the prompt, e.g., the audience is an expert in the field.	Construct an overview of how smartphones work, intended for seniors who have never used one before.
3	Break down complex tasks into a sequence of simpler prompts in an interactive conversation.	P1: Distribute the negative sign to each term inside the parentheses of the following equation: 2x + 3y - (4x - 5y) P2: Combine like terms for 'x' and 'y' separately. P3: Provide the simplified expression after combining t

Meta Prompting

In the Generative AI Age your ability to generate prompts is your ability to generate results.

Guide

Claude 3.5 Sonnet and o1 series models are recommended for meta prompting.

Replace {{user-input}} with your own input to generate prompts.

Use mp_*.txt as example user-inputs to see how to generate high quality prompts.
