I want like a double blind where I do and don’t have LLM bot: I try to use the damned thing but I do stuff like Bazel primitives and NixOS CUDA stuff and Claude doesn’t know jack shit about that stuff.
If Claude could do custom shit on rules_python, I’d marry it.
But it’s a fucking newb on hard stuff.
- nsonha 2y agomaybe try to write actual code rather than ONLY arcane config?
- rfoo 2y agoThat's why we have jobs with good pay for maintaining these build stuff: some software engineers really hate to deal with "arcane config" for no good reason.
- benreesman 2y agoAndrei Alexandrescu has a term for this: “aggressively intermediate”.
- nsonha 2y agoI have no problem with IaC, just that I have actual dev work to do and that sastifies my engineering instincts much more.
- benreesman 2y agoIf you had my job you’d cry before you killed yourself.
- maleldil 2y agoYou could try using Claude's Projects. You can give it examples, documentation and overall guidelines, and maybe that will enable Claude to generate the code you want. Claude 3.5 Sonnet has a context window of 200k tokens, which is enough for quite a lot of context material.
- benreesman 2y agoI will try it!
