#62Nice, it's like cog (https://pypi.org/project/cog/), but automatic.
It could replace template rendering in the long run.

#63It's so awesome to learn a new term like "macaronic language". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaronic_language I finally have the right term to describe the warning signs from 1960's-era mainframes that coined "blinkenlichten". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blinkenlights There should be a German term for this, but "gefälschter deutscher" doesn't quite capture it.
Was about to say that sounds very german yet with a sprinkling of dutch.

#64The name is foretelling of the end result: a flying spaghetti monster.

#65> What prevents my program from behaving differently after each preprocessing run? >The strength of your faith in GPT-4. I got a chuckle out of that
The strength of my faith in GPT-4 has been getting stronger every year since 2016.
This is a GPT-4 generated post huh? Hallucinating to the days.

#66This is really cool.
Practically, how often does this lead to new errors from the AI managed codeblocks when you update code elsewhere?

Ha, I just want to clarify that the quoted text isn't actually from the README or something like that, I'm not quite that crazy. But no real argument with the concern. An LLM will generate bugs, and that may be a reason this kind of thing never makes sense in practice (isn't that an argument against copilot, too, though?).
As far as I understand this is worse, because it'll regenerate everything in the file every time, right?
But yeah, I'm personally not comfortable with Copilot or its ilk, either.

#68Re: Maccarone: AI-managed code blocks in Python
#69Seems likely that dev work moves towards this sort of thing - boilerplate being AI managed.
It'll be hell to debug an ever shifting codebase though
