The "this wasted my time" comments are missing the point...

In addition to his great sense of humor, Steve is usually ahead of the curve in terms of trends. There's a lesson in this. LLMs have become incredible constraint solvers ("SAT-solvers for code"). Well-thought-out tests, types, specs, and docs are all incredibly valuable constraints. This has big implications - for example what happens to licenses when you can cheaply rewrite the codebase and therefore unencumber it.

Other methods use heuristics to guess many filetypes and in the benchmark they show worse performance (in terms of precision). Assuming benchmarks are not biased, the fact that this approach uses AI heuristics instead of hard-coded heuristics shouldn't make it strictly worse.

I'd like to hear about how this happened. No one in the team heard of reflog?
