How else does consistency work, then? Only being half facetious here. Maybe you or someone else really has a better take.

Let me LLM-expand that for you…

Then there are almost no domain experts.

Ran into this, as well. And they were really annoyed at being asked math questions.

Additional iterations are valuable, if and only if we learn from additional iterations. Otherwise we are just spinning our wheels.

No. AI sucks at formal languages and implications. Lossy decompression probably won’t ever be really good at this. If it’s missing from the data, then it won’t be there. The AI math proofs were probably already out there in tiny pieces an

Talking to CPAs never gets you to Pacioli groups. Talking to engineers and mathematicians gets you there.

Excellent example.

This is one of the few mistakes K&R made going from BCPL to C.

That is why coders who learn problem domains are where the money is at. Works for me. Already learned two or three problem domains well enough and now it is starting to compound.

Markets, not individual businesses. Many Kebab stands are tiny businesses. The fan-out for retail is necessary. The market is big.

Company officers already are.

The almost all problems are "small", by your standards. Giant market.

User-latency is key.

Scalability stems from domain knowledge. Sometimes you need two orders of magnitude. Sometimes you need five. Sometimes you need less than one.

Seriously doubt you ever did serious financial math. Coding is way easier.

This has drastically changed with "recent developments". Iteration speed is everything now, if and only if you learn from the additional iterations.

Research "cl:define-compiler-macro". It has been done before. And LTO is when the C people and the C++ people started to agree.

Clojure also "comes with the baggage" of learning Java libraries. And JavaScript comes with the baggage of learning about web browsers and NodeJS's "fs" module.

Go is for the cases where GC works for you (many, many cases). Zig is for when you need control over the allocator (also many such cases).

I prefer co-domain free software. Has no side-effects.

Plenty of people are also chasing their own tail.

Cargo-culting has "a rich history." Others call it a proud tradition (as opposed to a useful tradition).

"conflict management" before "try to work out how I'd offended them." Let me Claude that for you.

So, just a fake "yes"?

Does "the bank" know that it is unviable?

Learn how businesses are priced. The buyer (who PE sells to) is "thinking about" collecting on the backlog. Obviously, the backlog is "fake". EDIT: The backlog is fake or worthless in the sense, that dollars worth of rep

Also try musl libc and cosmopolitan libc. And try tcc. This helps clean up a lot of stuff that I got wrong.
