Absolutely. I may not be happy about the people that do the free work for me doing work I wish they didn't do. But at least I'm sufficiently in control that I can roll back, or that if literally the whole world hates the change th

I'm extremely skeptical of LLMs solving problems outside of "reproduce text that a human wrote in the past" problems. Which to be fair a lot of problems can be surprisingly reduced to, but still I'm much more skeptical t

Can you talk about the difference between what you're calling explicit parallelism and said textbooks?

Oh sure. Nobody's telling you personally not to like it or discounting the reasons you like it. We're just talking about the thermodynamic limit of the likingness of it over a spherical cow average of humans ;) And maybe also asse

Forth and Lisp? :) I'll admit that I'm not an expert here but to my eye it's a combination of bare words and cases where the position might be amgiuous, combined with the range of dialects where your reserved words could even

Maybe allowing bare words as both identifiers and keywords that could occur in the same position was never the right solution. SQL's roots start young in programming language design so no shame on anybody for not knowing. But e.g. if y
