    That was an informative post but Jesus Christ on a bicycle, reign in the LLM a bit. The whole thing was borderline painful to read, with so many "GPTisms" I almost bailed out a cou…

    That's a banger article, I don't even like low level stuff and yet read the whole thing. Hopefully I will have opportunity to use some of it if I ever get around to switch my perso…
