I don't think there was a 'prompt' for it, rather a long and dedicated work of a professional mathematician which involved LLM in some capacity. I'm sure the search step wasn't an …

What's the Elm definition of simplicity? Genuinely asking, because the concept of simplicity is very vague and overloaded in programming.

I would argue that those are not emergent property of the model, but a property of how humans find insights in a plausible guess.

"AI" is a marketing term, LLMs and Difusion Models are math.

They want to run local models

No, it's much worse. It will take much more time to review and notice that it doesn't actually solve the problem at hand.

Agree, after closer look smart pointer types are pretty standard and collections were indeed a part of migration. But still, in order to prepare those detailed and very project-spe…

When announcements say that rewrite took 1 week, I wonder how much time went into preparing this file with very detailed instructions on mapping Zig to Rust idioms: https://github.…

I wonder, did they consider an approach of vibe-coding a deterministic converter and then running it? This should be much more token efficient.

Just to clarify, you did this for C tools using LLMs or using deterministic conversion tools?

I guess they vibe-rewrite to C, relying on CCC compiler. Agent loop will be modifying both the project and the compiler until the ends meet.

I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

Wasn't looking at leaked Claude Code source already enough for the ridicule?

The reason for this is: the only way to show productivity gains enabled by AI is to lay off people and pretend you are doing the same amount of work (while in reality you are sever…

Are you talking about dominating your peers to get a promotion?

Formatting should be handled by deterministic tools with formally specified rules like prettier. This should never be a part if code review.

People who have skill can do the same without LLMs, maybe slightly slower on average but on more predictable schedule.
