Notes
Welcome to Codetown!
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Article: Architecting Agentic MLOps: A Layered Protocol Strategy with A2A and MCP

Google Research tried to answer the question of how to design agent systems for optimal performance by running a controlled evaluation of 180 agent configurations. From this, the team derived what they call the "first quantitative scaling principles for AI agent systems", showing that multi-agent coordination does not reliably improve results and can even reduce performance.

By Renato LosioSixteen Claude Agents Built a C Compiler Without Human Intervention... Almost
In an effort to probe the limits of autonomous software development Anthropic used sixteen Claude Opus 4.6 AI agents to build a Rust-based C compiler from scratch. Working in parallel on a shared repository, the agents coordinated their changes and ultimately produced a compiler capable of building the Linux 6.9 kernel across x86, ARM, and RISC-V, as well as many other open-source projects.

May be next year. We usually don’t meet in Nov-Dec. Maybe you’ll be our first speaker!
That’s great news. I’d really like to be there for the presentation. Let me see what’s up and I’ll be in touch very soon.
Sounds great, Joe. We meet on the 4th Th, this month is 10/25. I am going to CodeOne, so will either reschedule the meeting or get someone to lead.
You’ll want to join the OrlandoJUG Town group here on Codetown, too.
Hi Joe and welcome to Codetown! We’re looking for a speaker for this month’s OJUG. Let me know if you’re interested.
