You really want us to focus on more important impediments (whatever that means)? Just be glad we only want commas and add them already. If that trivial why even argue.

Thinking that a new, least sucking data format won’t be used for configuration was a bigger mistake. Like, yeah, I will exchange all my data in JSON now, but store configs in a good old XMLNS XSLT DTMF?

I prefer “1=0 OR 1=1”, because when you delete all conditions you can keep 1=0 out of selection and it decays into a no-op rather than destroying a table: DELETE FROM table WHERE 1=0[ OR 1=1 AND age > 21 AND xyz = 'abc

We can simply employ ACI (automatic comma insertion). Every newline after Select implies a comma, unless there’s a clearly unfinished column definition. And if you want to list columns on a single line, you have to type commas explicitly.

Any screenshots?

I slowly come to creating vim scripts for all that. I already use `alt-,` for triggering the final comma on a line. Maybe with modern LLMs I just need to prompt a vimscript that detects where the line is (SQL condition, array item, json, et

I don't always read code(*), but when I do... o ムワ The padding and separators are the least issues I wish I only had there. We don't need philosophy or morals (or jobs where that's important), we just need the way

Since we're already here, we could think about trailing AND, actually. Look: SELECT a, sum(b), WHERE foo = 1 AND GROUP BY a Sounds pretty SQL to me.

Agreed, that was a wrong example.

And I was talking about property. Replying about something else made no sense here.

If you write "a,b,c" you can't know whether you forgot ",d" either, because if you wanted to type ",d" but got distracted and forgot it, the habit of leaving no trailing comma will lead to just "a,b,c

I was thinking about it again recently, but can't tell if it's worth. Have you used it in real life projects? How was it?

The `KW item[,item]+ KW` grammar just sucks in general. Natural-ish grammars are really stupid and shortsighted.

To this still empty thread: how about we just stop arguing and add these damn commas everywhere? How about having human- and devenv-oriented languages finally, after how many decades?

Why can’t they just use a cable+socket similar to PSU - wall socket? It’s not even multiple-kilowatts range.

A side effect of this is that a zip.exe that unzips a zip into a book that contains text indistiguishable from the output of a human must reason too. From what I can see, you’re only massaging semantics. That is uninteresting.

Oh, that is true. "It" doesn't have to do human reasoning, at all. But we have to at least define "reasoning" for the given manifestation of "it". Otherwise it's just birdspeak. Because reasoning is &

When I say LLMs, I mean literal large language models, like all of them in the general "Text-to-Text" && "Transformers" categories, loadable into text-generation-webui. Most people probably only have experience

I’m not that interested in this heated continuation of my silly idea, but there’s a thing I want to share. I got my first “computer” when no advanced electronics existed in the area. The best they could get was simple fixed-eink(?) display

You can prove that LLMs can reason by simply giving it a novel problem where no data exists and having it solve that problem They scan a hyperdimensional problem space whose facetness and capacity a single human is unable to comprehend. B

This is not boilerplate, what are you comparing it with? The root commenter and their replies clearly stated that they use AI for things which they know how to do but too tedious to type. General code generation abilities are out of this sc

by wruza 2y ago
The fact that most of you didn’t have that before AI is, idk, crazy? There are shortcuts, snippets, :!ipc, ahk, etc. It took 25 years of the internet and a whole multi-trillion bubble to provide a boilerplate completion? Seriously? Editin

Due to my "roots" I'm capable of painting a "site" fully myself, given only the windowing API and e.g. pango/cairo (too lazy to reserach into skia) and a few utility libraries. I had actually created a fully wo

Yeah, I meant “style”, not literal 80s tech. I’m just used to subtracting a few years due to growing up in the location that had everything too late. I think that for learning the pre-IBM-PC spirit would be the best. Basically a ROM BASIC s

Something sinclair-like, but in modern packaging with modern energy saving and eink and touch kbd. So it can work from sunlight, run for weeks and endure sand. I’d even budget one for myself, to speak the same language, so to say.

Oh, that slippery slope again! First you give them tablets, and next day their children were forcibly taken from their families and communities between 1910 and 1970 Excuse me, but this is pretty much different line of thinking from mine.

You got it backwards. I’m not judging him if that’s the case. I’m just empathetic to the ones that may exist as described. And no, I don’t believe in the happy-life-in-the-forest. The first thing “aboriginals” do is to get themselves sneake
