Simple. Don't produce slop then. If it offends you so much that people call your work as it is, you should do better work, grow some thicker skin, or stop.

South African food actually has this in abundance, biltong is like beef jerky but better in almost every conceivable way - not to mention all the other variants of it for example dry stix, droevors, etc. Not to say we don't also have o

Don't really have anything to add but I do want to say you're not alone - I feel very similarly about AI tooling, the level of satisfaction I get from using them (none), the need for interesting technical challenges, etc. etc.

Yes, as we all know, when evaluating which programming language to use, you should get a line count of the compiler's repo. More lines = more capabilities. Why would I ever want a language with less capabilities?

It's not about understanding the LLM's theory of mind - the direct quote was > Understanding the theory of mind that composes the system i.e. the logic underpinning how the system works

I'm very much in a similar boat to you - I'm also considering a pivot away from SWE if this is what it's going to become. Luckily I'm still young and don't have anyone depending on me (other than myself). I'm s

Or better yet, refactor your app so it doesn't require so much boilerplate - surely if you're doing the same thing over and over again you can just extract it into it's own function / method and abstract over it.

Not sure if they do this, but I'd actually really like if they included instructions for things you can make with just the brick sets - just to help you get started or to come back to later. fx with a box of 1000 bricks, instructions f

Even the differences between React and Svelte are big enough for this to be noticeable. And Svelte is actually present in the training data. Given the large amount of react training data, svelte performs significantly worse (yes, even when

The point isn't that you can trick an LLM, but that their capabilities are more strongly tied to training data than context. That's to say, when context and training disagree, training "wins". ("wins" isn'

It's well known that even current LLMs do not perform well on logic games when you change the names / language used. i.e. try asking it to swap the meanings of the words red and green and ask it to describe the colors in a paintin

by miningape 9mo ago
Because LLMs do not work like that - there's no "understanding" the source and answering questions, it simply "finds" similar results in its training data (matching it with the context) and regurgitates (some part o

Not a finance guy, so fully prepared to be wrong here. But my interpretation is that an increase in price corresponds to a shorter lifespan. i.e. less time to make money so we need to charge more to get the same return over less time It cou

Yep exactly, at it's simplest all an allocator is doing is keeping track of which memory areas are owned and their addresses. In a sense even the stack pointer is a kind of allocator (you can assign the memory pointed to by the stack p
