Because Make sucks? Because it's really limited and not expressive? Because it's not really a build system (nor is it a package manager or a dependency resolver or...)

You only explore boundaries of an AI if you are actually training and evaluating your own models. Harnesses aren't testing boundaries of AI. They inject "make no mistakes" in various forms and provide some session management

In a regulated industry 90% false positive rate is indistinguishable from 100% failure rate. Hell, in any industry. You're basically saying "we need human review for literally everything AI outputs because we have no way of saying

Doesn't answer my question. If curling was traditional American sport, you'd get curling instead. An average NFL game is 11 minutes of action. High production and entertainment lol.

In regulated industries none of those matter if the tool invents compliance issues or breaks compliance. The only thought-ptovoking discussion should be "why the hell do we have this stochastic parrot anywhere near out codebase"

For your sife project, it would be nice to see a preview of what you're sending Edit: I saw the small link to examples :)

Someone mentioned sqlite in a comment. It's a better comparison IMO. Also, Linux has many more people, many of whom basically just review code.

Opensource is already much worse and is drowning in slop. Until a better way is found (if it can be found), severely restricting contributions is the only sane response. And it has nothing to do with the perceived "only influential peo

"Gain trust through plausible contributions" is a new angle on AI-produced PRs I haven't seen yet. Though in retrospect we should have seen it. It's been an angle of attack since forever, it only took a lot of effort.

The next time anyone on HN says "GDPR should've been a setting in the browser", I'll just point them to this. This is what browser vendors are making as a default setting.

If it's inconsistently applied, yes. In most functional languages however you can view the end of any statement/expression as a return/assign which makes it very easy and trivial to assign anything to variables, or split anyt
