It'll be great if they'd build language servers via the language server protocol, that would be editor agnostic.

> 'quasi-stochastic information compression' Isn't that what we humans do? We try to find patterns to discover underlying mechanisms. That's information compression.

This is great, thank you! Usability suggestion: It should be possible to scroll horizontally in code blocks while still generating. Currently that doesn't work (at least for mobile).

I use nvim-dap[1] in combination with jester[2] (by me) to run and debug Jest tests in my project, it works perfectly. [1]: https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap [2]: https://github.com/David-Kunz&#x

Plugins I would like to see: - Compiler/parser for programming languages (to see if code compiles) - Read and write access to a given directory on the file system (to automatically change a code base) - Access to given tools, to be inv

From my experience, most time is spent in the generate-copy-paste-compile-error cycle. Especially for strict/strongly-typed languages, checking for programming errors can be done by a machine, so this process can be automated (not for

The steering wheel could invoke :earlier xs (when rotated by x to the left) and :later xs (to the right). We'd have a time machine.

I agree. I love Nim, it's such a great language but I try to stick to Rust because I have a feeling that's where the industry is headed. And Rust will improve over time, maybe at some point it will be more pleasant to use.

One cannot enforce optimal solutions but one can prevent sub-optimal ones through proper checks.

by davidkunz 4y ago
A few examples: - Rust forces you to deal with errors and "null" values (Option). If you just unwrap them, it's visible. - Rust requires systems with clear ownership. You can opt out with various smart pointers, it's vis

It depends. - Rust is a complicated language, so novice developers probably use something else. - Its ownership/borrowing system makes sure that architecture is not an afterthought (unless you pollute your code with countless smart poi

I dislike the 1000 character limit. In ChatGPT, it's quite useful to insert larger chunks, e.g. for "improve this text" or "given that code, how can I implement ..." questions.

Yes, but syntax decisions of programming languages shouldn't rely on such things. I would've preferred square brackets for generics (and something else for indexing).

by davidkunz 4y ago
I don't know if it's just me, but find angle brackets really hard to read. Many times I just miss the ending one, because they have the same height as normal characters, so they don't stand out.

I assume at some point, ChatGPT needs some kind of text ranking. Popular texts are usually correct (content and presentation) and useful, so they should rank higher. At some point, low-quality texts are filtered out. Personally, I don'

ChatGPT can also change its style, e.g. "Make the following text more interesting".
