I feel that we bikeshed variable names but then tend to send the most noisy Slack/Email/whatever messages. Yet, there’s so much discussion around naming, but not so much around information transmission.

FlowGram is a node-based flow building engine that helps developers quickly create workflows in either fixed layout or free connection layout modes, providing a set of interactive best practices. It's particularly suitable for visual workflows with clear inputs and outputs.

Here are the answers for The New York Times Mini Crossword for April 11.

Not sure if it's just me or everyone, but I just discovered that gmail has been marking almost all of my email as spam for at least a month.

I found out because a friend asked if I got her email and I found it in spam, along with a bunch of other items that were not only not spam but should have been marked as high priority.

I was kind of wondering why my email volume when down so much...

Google launched an Agent2Agent protocol recently. https://developers.googleblog.com/en/a2a-a-new-era-of-agent-interoperability/

I have been struggling to understand who actually benefits by conforming their Agents to this spec.

The way I understood it, MCP as a protocol took off because there were two established Clients with very large developer distribution (Claude Desktop and Cursor) that adopted the standard. This mean if you're a developer, MCP now democratizes your ability to make the tools you already use (Claude & Cursor), more powerful!

A2A doesn't seem to have an analagous benefit. Current clients with established distribution for A2A is 0, as I understand it. Therefore there are no developers today that would benefit from building an A2A server. Perhaps A2A is designed to motivate the big clients with massive existing distribution (ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor) to support A2A so they can get access to other people's Agents. But all those clients are also competitors of A2A's maker (Google). So even though a Client might value being able to provide a lot of other people's agents easily in their interface, it seems like adopting Google's protocol might be a risky choice.
