    Good point! I used exponential to emphasize the nature of the value of a certain test compared to the rest of the generated tests, but you're right it's not the right word. I updat…

    Ouch - half of the article (the "Actionable Takeaways" section) was my own commentary. The summary was for those who didn't want to necessarily parse through the entire paper's PDF…

    Hey! Thanks for your comment - I'm the one who wrote this article. I wasn't trying to say that the paper authors talked about "unexpected edge cases" or "thinking outside the box."…

    I don’t really understand this comment. I didn’t “slap” any date on top of the article. 2 Oct 2023 is the date I published my article. (This is how blogs on the Internet work.) The…

    I’m the writer of this. I linked to this presentation very clearly throughout the article as a source. This was an article meant to resurface learnings from something that happened…

    While X hasn't been dying just yet, I think this would probably kill it. The value of X comes from both the creators and the free users and lurkers. If it's just full of creators a…
