Isn't that what sw development today is? A description of a system and what we want it to do. With the advance of compilers, libraries, frameworks, linters, autocomplete systems and so on, we're already very close to describing the minimum amount of information the system needs in order to produce the correct result. To my knowledge actually physically writing the software has not been a bottleneck in a very, very long time.

Problem I'm having as a developer with LLM documentation is their reliability, or rather lack of it. Every time there is an assertation I end up having to double-confirm it because they tend to be wrong as often as they're right. Reading imaginary hallucinated documentation is just about as useful as zero documentation.

While I could keep doing this for the rest of my life, my employer doesen't really appreciate the extra expense. A technical writer is much, much cheaper than the dozens of developers trying to confirm the docs.

I feel fixing stairs would be very actionable though, and something that I'd not remember other than when it almost fails under load or fails entirely.

I personally don't need a reminder to go off for a thing I need to do today or tomorrow, but something happening next week or next month that I need to check up on or arrange. Those tend to be the kind of expensive and really annoying thing to fix after neglecting

>it would be 4-8x or so more expensive than solar/wind

Is that accounting for the renewable's inherent need for very expensive energy storage? Because otherwise you need to build that gas turbine to cover for when sun isn't shining.

The entire point of running it on lower power is to avoid any uneven heating and manual intervention. Some really delicate foods I've put on low with plenty of success
