I'm frustrated when coworkers express that merely incremental advancement will fully replace programmers. Rather than software engineering requiring a genuine, sophisticated intelligence.

It reveals that they weren't using their brains to do programming to begin with. Which I already knew!

I believe the same group is responsible for developing treesitter as well?

both contributions have been massive for the domain

this probably doesn't speak to your question, but I'm just noticing this mass phenomenon of wanting them to be really genuinely smart while they are genuinely stupid

however, it is a wonderful search engine and could be used accordingly

LLMs are stochastic. we can't expect them to be deterministic. if one ever stops and thinks, "but.. how can I actually get this to do what I want?" you can't. some folks are trying to erect big towers with the hope it can be swept away, like "Model Context Protocol

Deborah Harry saying "Don't be afraid to let your body die" on a fuzzy TV screen in David Cronenberg's "Videodrome," from 1983.

Every clip I see from Fox News or any of the business channels is basically a higher-resolution version of this. Probably fine!

the goal is _maintainable_ code, not just pure volume of code. if you deprive yourself of learning and just outsource it to the machine, you are robbing yourself.

tbh I've found writing code by hand to be orders of magnitude more efficient and awesome than when LLMs do it

I imagine they have mathematically formalized your question, produced countless academic papers, and deployed a global computing fabric that answers your question in the negative.

maximal anonymous knowledge that can be de-anonymized at the drop of a hat or something like this.

are you considering working towards building anything complex? or just learning stuffs?

I like it too.. I think. the defect rate is astronomical though.

that one neighbor who put a chicken coop in their back yard in 2017 and was always trying to foist eggs on everyone probably feels like littlefinger right now
