Is it? Humans have hit a hard wall of intelligence limitation for a long time now. AIs, on the other hand, are just beginning.

Everything humans create is a product of: - a pre-trained model: DNA - and a prompt: envinronment/input Is that much different from AI?

What irks me about most about web frameworks is the error stack. 20 lines of anonymous function calling gibberish is so unpalatable. It's hard to understand what is actual application code in these stacks.

Meanwhile Apple, also sitting on infinite cash, is easily entertained by toying with regulators around the world and contributes back almost nothing in comparison to Google. Heck, they can't even be bothered to fund a single developer

That's one part of Rust bloat and slow compilation times. But there's still a ton of dependency code there.

Their original complaint was about the project taking 20GB of disk space to compile. Also they did point out that the parser depends on a serialisation library, so you're also mistaken about parent thinking the dependencies are necessa

glob was just an example. They weren't asking about a specific crate. Also this crate is from official rust lang repo, so much less prone to individualistic misbehaving. A bad example all around.

Could you share the URL please? I'd like to try the same thing. Is there a list of posts at the top or just H1s for each post?

True. That's why my instructions file tell them to try to fix once and stop if it fails again.

IMO they struggle a whole lot more with low level/manual lifetimes like C, C++ and Rust.

Yep. I just tell LLM to create and run unit tests after applying changes. When tests fail, LLM can use the error message to fix code. Be it compilation error of code or logic error in unit tests.

I value the path of least resistance, and Bun wins hands down because that's one of its priorities. In contrast, Deno gambled that Node compatibility wasn't critical and lost. Now they're backpedaling.

I don't think so. Even Microsoft default sample database schema uses INT ids.

Here's some related challenge I'm facing. Maybe someone can help me: I also managed to make AI critique itself and that improved code generation a ton. For a TypeScript backend project that runs with Bun, I tell AI to also generat

How do you solve the risk of AI writting and executing unit tests with something like `rm -rf /` and wiping your files? I'm looking for solutions. Docker looks like one but I like to keep things simple.
