`/init` is good enough. Model improvements will take care of the rest.

Or the opposite, that humans are somehow super special and not as simple as a prediction feedback loop with randomizations.

If it’s easy to read and understand but doesn’t work, or is slow to execute, or costs a lot to run, is it good code? If the function is a black box, but you’re sure the inputs produces a certain output without side effects and is fast, do

> If you're fine with software which gets a little bit harder to work on every time you make a change and which might blow up in unexpected ways, human written code is similarly fine. Save for very few human individuals.

use both ~ Claude Code as main driver, hook it up to Cursor with /ide in Claude code to review or make other manual adjustments. Have OpenAI Codex do code reviews, it’s the best one so far at code reviews. Yes, it’s ironic (or not) tha

Totally agree. The uncomfortable truth is that the skill of _writing_ code is becoming commoditized. Reading, understanding, designing efficient systems, and planning changes based on that, at least for now, will still be for human experts

Article meta comment: show me, don’t tell me. No show —> not easy enough —> too lazy to look it up, already got python/go/ruby quick cli methods. LLM generated even easier.

Yep, the Attention mechanism in the Transformer arch is pretty good. Probably need another cycle of similar breakthrough in model engineering before this more complex neural network gets a step function better. Moar data ain’t gonna help. T

What new data will GenAI train on if there’s no Web? a nothing burger article with no real ideas.

^^^ is closer to the truth for the swap out; eek out those margins. Culturally, chabuduo is more of an excuse/greed of the lazy to convince you it’s close enough [that it won’t make a difference to you] and they’re too lazy or out of p

To add a bit more nuance, SO has a question-answer type format, which leads very well into prompt-rely format to train these chat applications. Most of the other sources do not, except for Github issues maybe. Without this question-answer

LLMs are not chess engines, similar to how they don’t really calculate arithmetic. What’s new? carry on.
