I'm trying to teach LLMs to yak shave responsibly. It's normal to be programming and notice other clean ups that really ought to be done. I don't want it done in that PR though. Currently experimenting with asking the AI to just create hand-off tasks in the issue tracker.

I've had good results by prompting an LLM "review your changes" in the same session when I don't like the initial output. I'm surprised this is effective: I would think it's redundant when you're running with a high effort setting.

My $2/month VPS has stopped and can't even boot, so I've switched provider. It seems like most server providers don't want to offer <$5 machines, and I imagine it's hard to make money at the low end. Several providers require a one-off setup fee too.
