@NickADobos Its a decent amount of constant gardening via daily drift crons
How do you control that? Part of me thinks you need a tight controlled base if you want to keep the dragon of long running goals and a coherent system in check But also, maybe models are just so smart it doesn’t matter anymore and can manage fine? Or maybe this is really an exercise in how far you can manage and how deeply you can go hands off?
