The idea is more that you use the LLM for quick guesses about behaviour/names and so on rather than actually relying on it for reverse engineering as per se.

It might be interesting to tie this into something I had a daydream about once and then never bothered to actually do: generate header files from debug info (and then possibly have some LLM tidy it up)

emailing patches is fairly easy. The real reason not to use github anyway though is that it's terrible (the basic "github model" for doing code review was basically made up on the back of a napkin IMO)

This reminds me that for some reason I am logged into my gaming machine's windows store with my GitHub account thanks to the bizarre way that microsoft do auth.

Perhaps it's time for an anti-racist fork of a python. Maybe the JIT could only turn on subject to a blood test.

I have a slightly nuanced take on this in that I simultaneously believe that Musk is basically culturally retarded and needs someone he can listen to by his side, but also that he fundamentally understands the value of twitter far better th

Good summary overall, although seemed a little muddled in places. Would love to know some of the tricks of the trade from insiders (not relating to security at least)

The real reason to have bloomberg, other than data, is actually the chat. OTC (things that don't trade on exchanges) markets are a lot closer to ebay or facebook marketplace than many realise, for example, e.g. you ask for a price, pos

The main reason why I want to stop using react is actually precisely that I feel massively distracted from delivering business value when using it (although still better off than without it entirely obviously). JSX is quite fantastic for so

Amongst other things, the primary expense is lot of visual elements in a very dense chart that ideally would be ticking with the market in ~real time and allow more than one on the screen. A lot of it probably should be a canvas but there&#
