By the same measure, of an llm really sucks we stop using it, same solution

fwiw I think there’s no valuable distinction. Both take in their learnings and evaluation an output.

It’s even pretty common for us humans to hallucinate outputs.

Remember that restaurant we went to in Rome where we had pizza?

No, it was Paris, and we didn’t have pizza we had crepes.

We’re not that different.

I just can’t fathom this. If I was asked to design a lunar lander… “if it falls over, it’s fucked”, wouldn’t make the cut.

I use ai “voraciously” coding every day. Even the best models are not very good. I found that if something is hard to do it’s because it’s not documented properly, and therefore it’s not in the data anyway so the model can’t out, just guess. If it is documented properly then I don’t need its help so much.

I barely get 1 line of code that I’d actually ship unchanged. It’s really useful but still has a long way to go

That’s wildly inaccurate to the point of trolling so I’ll leave it there

I’m old too and have been doing this just as long.

What’s the most impactful task for the business right now? What’s the feedback from the sales team? What tickets are coming into customer support? What are our competitors doing? What do the marketing team need? You’re across all this? What about the other 250 developers in the business?

At some point it doesn’t scale. So maybe you need someone further up the pipeline identifying opportunities and looking at risks, talking to customers and aggregating the data so that we can be focused on the most important thing.

Maybe you’ve only worked in very small companies over those 20 years but it’s a naive take on things.

When we eventually nail agi, I think we will look at llm’s as nothing more than the interface to ai, how we interact with it, but we won’t consider it to be ai.

There’s something sad about how basic this is compared to say FrontPage (so shoot me) which was oh ~25 years ago.

Ignore those handbooks they’re selling you snake oil.

The original agile manifesto though is still valid. Guiding principles is all you need

Read the agile manifesto and tell me you don’t want to do those things…

Software is made to a price just like other products. Great software takes time and skill, like other great products.

Presumably “scraped” isnt the right term here. They already have the raw data, they Won’t be “scraping “ it from the website they’ll just be investing it from where they store it

In Orkney (north east Scotland) they have the sanding stones of Stennes. Not nearly as impressive as Stonehenge but also not surprising there’s some connection.

My son built his first interpreter in Haskell when he was 18months old
