    No, english is my second language. I had already established from previous chat that upon asking for server.c file, llm's answer was working correctly. Rest of the sentence is just…

    Yes. This is funny when I know what is happening and I can "guide" the LLM to the right answer. I feel that is the only correct way to use LLMs and it is very productive. However, …

    There is no easy way to share. I copied them in google docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GidKFVgySgLUGlcDSnNMfMIu... One with ChatGPT about dbms questions and one with clau…

    A current 3rd year college student here. I really want LLMs to help me in learning but the success rate is 0. They often can not generate relatively trivial code When they do, they…

    I am sorry. I really don't see your point. Typescript is in a completely different league of languages than rust/c/c++ with vastly different use cases. Also, the world still mostly…

    From my perspective (college student), it is true that there is godly amount of C code in the world which would remain true for a long long time. In similar sense there are also qu…

    Fair enough. I have personally experienced pain with phantoms. But then what would you advice to do ? There are nightmare patterns in rust and c++. Looks to me as pick your poison …

    You examples seems to be for a dynamic environment where things are changing. Rust is naturally at slight odds in such a scenario Instead of quick and dirty, it allows to embed the…

    It is great that the ecosystem is growing, but there is still time for things to trickle down. As college student I have invested time into rust because I see value in the language…

    Although in rust, function like macros make it super hard to trace code. I like them when I am writing the code and hate then when I have to read others macros.

    The first piped query language I used was Nushell's implementation of wide-column tables. PRQL offers almost similar approach which I have loved dearly. It also maps to different S…

    I did not know that Orcas were endangered up until now. Seems like this approach is working for raising awareness.

    I am not deep into llms so I ask this. From my understanding, their last model was open source but it was in a way that you can use them but the inner working were "hidden"/not tra…

    Fair enough. I went through qr code of my previous metro ticket to see what info they encode. It is non standard so there were - some hashes - type of ticket, in my case single use…

    I am not sure which part is impractical. In India we already use QR code for metro tickets. The system design is definitely different from one mentioned and mimics more of how airp…

    Really excited about semantic index. This should allow for google knowledge graph like features grounded in reality for their llm. However it really depends how well it works.
