It seems like the design is flawed, probably because the scoring structure and conditions are wrong. And originally, due to the nature of LLMs, even if the input is unstructured, when you design something like a RAG system, you usually need

Reading posts on HN, I notice that even across different programming domains, surprisingly similar problems emerge. Seeing this, I can't help but think that programming might ultimately be a matter of organizational theory. Conway'

Most people overestimate themselves. Everyone deludes themselves into thinking they're talented. And in fact, most people are talented at something. The problem is this: the moment you think you're talented, you stop growing. As y

AI code usually creates fake 'cohesion.' It looks good on the surface. But in reality, it's often just optimized for the moment, weak to change. After reading Code Complete 4 or 5 times, I became obsessed with the idea that I

You don't dismiss me, so I'd like to respond to your comments within the bounds of my own knowledge, even though I can't compare to a programmer as skilled as you. I don't think that's entirely wrong. But human code

But do people actually find these vulnerabilities on their own, or are they using LLMs? I was curious about how these vulnerabilities work, so I tried asking my dear friend Mr. CLAUDE, but he immediately threw an error and ended the session

I'm going through each one, and it's fascinating to see things like this. The UAF principle in c-ares is really interesting. The problem ultimately came from not being able to prevent stale pointers. The attack works by figuring

As a programmer, what I feel when I see fintech programmers each speaking from their own different experiences and perspectives is that it makes me wonder what it really means to be good at programming. What user xlii said about not storing

Most countries are facing similar problems. In the US, it's the millennial problem. In France, it's HENRY (High Earner, Not Rich Yet). In Korea, it's the '20-something male' issue. In Japan, it's the 'gene

Someday, human mathematicians might end up doing proofs for proofs. When a codebase gets too large, you eventually can't understand all of it. Even code I wrote myself, I can't fully grasp it. In those cases, we usually write test

I think you could be right. I do use excessive error-handling code and verbose comments — that's true. But most of my time is spent on delivery, and the biggest problem with delivery is that if a bug occurs during runtime, the client c

To elaborate a bit more: open source is about 'symbolic capital' — it's about building a reputation that says, 'I can write code at this level.' Commercial closed source, on the other hand, is about 'I need to

Open source is much better. Closed source is mostly considered 'done' as long as it just works. One is a 'craft,' the other is 'survival for delivery.'

Maybe I'll know once I try it? Honestly, for small functions or methods, I don't think there's a huge difference between models. But the larger the code gets, the more noticeable the difference seems to be. Personally, I thin

There's a lot of tacit knowledge in programming. -Why do you cut API boundaries this way? -Why do you change the order of struct fields? -Why do you deliberately insert padding? Most of it depends on the background and context. Sometim

When I searched for papers on using LLMs, I found that typically, you can have an LLM generate code and then ask it to find GitHub projects similar to that code. Then you can learn by looking at the pull requests and seeing how they structu

I think GPT writes code the best. How well will it write in version 5.6? It gives me chills. Recently, I went head-to-head with GPT on nearly 2,000 lines of code, and GPT's solution was superior and faster. I even referenced multiple c

You're right. Because conversations with AI don't force me to deal with boring code, don't scratch my ego, and they flatter me. On top of that, talking to smart developers in real life is exhausting. Putting aside whether the
