Shouldn't you have concerns picking Claude 4.6 for your next project if it produces subpar elixer code? Cheapy shot perhaps, but I have a feeling exotic languages will remain more exotic longer now that LLM aided development is becoming the norm.
- majewsky 8mo agoWe've finally figured out how to spread ossification from network protocols to programming languages! \o/
- monooso 8mo agoThe specific agent is irrelevant. This is related to a broader personal opinion regarding LLMs and language choice. Before we continue, the following opinion comes with several important caveats: 1. It only applies to paid professional work. If it's a hobby project, choose whatever makes you happy. 2. It ignores the strengths and weaknesses of different languages. These may outweigh any LLM-related concerns. 3. This is my opinion today. I _think_ it will survive longer than the next LLM cycle, but who knows these days. 4. May contain nuts. Okay, that's the ass-covering dispensed with, on to the opinion: If the choice is between a language which is "LLM friendly" (for want of a better phrase) and one which is not, it is irresponsible to choose the latter.
