The thing is, stuff like projects with a lot of low level code (such as building your own programming language) is not THAT good at being AI generated. Personally, I use the like manual version of claude where you have to like approve every

Ah yeah that makes more sense. Will look into this

Again I am a bit confused. Its not like the agent is driving the human, you are driving the agent. If your agent has to come back to you with periodic updates, then you are fundamentally not using it correctly. You should be actively monito

Additionally (i have no idea if this is intentional or not), the order of my words in the readme seems to be flipped here. This line > Additionally, around 80% of the raw code in this repository was produced with agentic coding tools cam

I can speak for Jaithon but this is standard across most languages who have like immutable and mutable variables. There is def nothing stopping you from using var everywhere, but (let) lets the compiler like catch any mistakes you did not m

what do you mean? I didnt understand your question

by AbhiramaVS 2mo ago
imo you should use these tools to the extent that you still understand the code. i put this on my readme, but how I use these tools is I first draft the code for wtv Im doing manually (like a bug fix, new fewture etc) with a ton of comments

I recomend you take a shot and try. Originally, I built Jaithon pre chatgpt (2022-2023) and in doing so I read a couple of books my dad owned about language automta and architecture. I stopped working on jaithon not because I couldnt code o

free to believe whatever you want.

Yes! I agree. I wish github made this a standard or something like that, I personally just did the best I could with disclosure. Thanks for the kind words!

AI Slop is more of a convention than an actual definition. There is no standard definition (from what I know) that is widly accepted for the definition of AI slop: some people might say any use of AI is slop or others might have a more libe

Unfortunately I did not do this :( I think a couple people pointed out but .jai already exists on github (I did not know about this when I first made it lol) and for the readme and stuff I did it via python for the syntax highlighitng lol.

More like rust than both of those tbh. When i first made jaithon i named it as such cus back then for one the syntax was vastly different and for two I only knew python and java lol. more recently I changed the syntax to be more similar to

by AbhiramaVS 2mo ago
Thank you so much!! That was completley my intention and the reason why I was building it, and im really glad you liked it! To be quite frank, the syntax is more similar to rust compared to python in a couple of ways, but python is what ins

by AbhiramaVS 2mo ago
Yes! Originally jaithon was made when i only knew python and java lol so thats why I chose the name. Recently I made major overhauls to the syntax in perferance to more rust coded sytnax [ cus i really like rust :) ]. Could you elaborate on

macos is fully supported (gpu for apple silicon is written with obj C and coco, and the JIT is made for macos) and linux also works without GPU or GUI features. windows isnt supported lol though if you knew what you were doing it wouldnt be

I'm pretty sure I have exactly what you are talking about. error handeling was one of the things that I wanted to get right with jaithon, and I made my system similar to like rust. error[E0301]: cannot assign to immutable binding `x`

Hey HN! I made a post a couple days ago on jaithon 3. Jaithon 3.1 is a huge step forward, it intros a JIT compiler which makes Jaithon as-fast or faster than c++ on a variaty of benchmarks. Check out the syntax here! Version 3.1 also includ

ah gotu, yeah that makes sense. I will def further investigate this ltr :)

by AbhiramaVS 2mo ago
I completely agree! I started Jaithon before mainstream LLMs existed and for a while Jaithon was free of AI generated code and my personal stance on AI generated code was rather negative. Recently though, my stance has grown far more positi

Hi HN! I’m Abhirama, and I started Jaithon in 2023 when I was in 8th grade to teach myself how to code in C. Jaithon 1 was really bad, it was all in one file and it was completely an interpreter and it was extremely slow with bugs everywher
