Yep and after 6 hours don't reach for LLM, instead:
* Ask someone to come over and look
* Come back the next day, work on something else
* Add comment # KNOWN-ISSUE: ...., and move on and forget about it.
But year spent days on a bug at work before ha ha!
- justonceokay 6mo agoYou say this as if the LLM isn’t committing things it doesn’t even recognize as bugs if you don’t babysit it. I’d rather have a codebase with a few very well marked evil zones, rather than a codebase no one has read. All code contains demons and it’s good to have an understanding of their locations and relative power
- moregrist 6mo ago> Come back the next day, work on something else This is a tried and true way of working on puzzles and other hard problems. I generally have 2-4 important things in flight, so I find myself doing this a lot when I get stuck.
- ignoramous 6mo ago> This is a tried and true way of working on puzzles and other hard problems ... generally have 2-4 important things in flight Just a note that, for chronic procrastinators, having 2 to 4 important things going on is a trigger & they'd rather not complete anything. I wonder, for such folks, if SoTA LLMs help with procrastination?
