I really like typst's [1] syntax, personally. I can't wait for their html rendering to be stable. [1]: https://github.com/typst/typst

Then your team is too big. If you have more than, say, 7 people in a planning, your team is too large. And it's never really asynchronous. It's more honest to block everyone who might have input. Planning the effort (points) also

Even more than that, it means the developer has spent no time understanding the surrounding code, and thus is likely adding debt/CRUFT/risk.

> The team would need to sign off on that PR before any "work" was done. Can anyone describe that in any way other than collaboration? That sounds like an ad-hoc planning for a single issue, which you could also just do for a s

It's quite easy to just go to the source quoted by the LLM, read it or skim it, and quote that.

> a cold, hard reminder that this is clunky, soulless machinery This is where my view differs fundamentally. If I get another "let's set up your account!" text in a soulless, cold software, I am throwing my laptop out the

That's why I like the x := x + 1 syntax better, or the let x = 2; syntax

Try solving it slowly, some captchas love that.

It might be internal, unfinished, a prototype, in testing and not yet for public use. It might exist but do something else. This is not an ad for LLMs. If you think this is good, you should probably not ever touch code that humans interact

If you're on Windows and you like the git CLI, try GitExtensions. It maps pretty much 1-to-1 to the git CLI and is still discoverable.

I couldn't find a source for this with a quick couple of searches, could you provide one?

Maybe this is not such a bad side of history to be on after all.

The first element in a collection at address 15 is at address 15. The offset of an element from the start is addr-start, so 15-15=0 for the first, 16-15=1 for the second, etc. that's why we start from 0, not because of voltages, at lea

Do you dislike copyright also when it protects your intellectual property, and makes things like software licenses possible?

Close them and report to your boss. If your boss doesn't care, look for a new job. Once you have a new job, quit the old and cite that specific case as the reason.

Another un-google-able (OXY as in Occidental Petroleum Corp?) name for a Rust project. We just cannot help ourselves.

Actually, yeah, a couple of times, but that was a rubber-ducky approach; the AI said something utterly stupid, but while trying to explain things, I figured it out. I don't think an LLM has solved any difficult problem for me before. H

"just" technical people who like precision are the reason we are here, typing this, and why lots of parts of our world is pretty cool and comfortable. I wouldn't say that's useless and "just" some people when i

Capable, yeah, but not reliable, that's my point. They can one shot fantastic code, or they can one shot the code I then have to review and pull my hair out over for a week, because it's such crap (and the person who pushed it is

Not really, they're only as good as their context and they do miss and forget important things. It doesn't matter how often, because they do, and they will tell you with 100% confidence and with every synonym of "sure" t

I use AI every day. Without oversight, it does not work well. If it doesn't work well, I will do it myself, because I care that things are done well. None of this is me being scared of being replaced; quite the opposite. I'm one o

But isn't this only fine as long someone who knows what they are doing has oversight and can fix issues when they arise and Claude gets stuck? Once we all forget how to write SUM(A:A), will we just invent a new kind of spreadsheet once

Not OP but using LLMs in any professional setting, like programming, editing or writing technical specifications, OP is correct. Without extensive promoting and injectimg my own knowledge and experience, LLMs generate absolute unusable garb

There's already a language for this, or multiple, that isn't English. Not having to use this language is NOT going to make anything better. It will, however, make people resort more quickly to "I guess it's just not poss

you don't need to specify the protocol. For file protocol, just type a path. For ssh, type a ssh connection string like lion@myserver.test:path/to/file
