__0x01·5 gün önce·discussThanks for this. I especially enjoyed the section on word counting software and word linking games.
__0x01·2 ay önce·discussFrom the companion paper:> The argument relies crucially on ideas that may, at least in retrospect, be attributed to Ellenberg-Venkatesh, Golod-Shafarevich, and Hajir-Maire-Ramakrishna.Can someone please elaborate on this?
__0x01·2 ay önce·discuss> A problem with this is that in order to confirm the findings, you’ll need an expert human. But generally expert humans are busy doing other things.The article suggests using LLMs to identify and fix UB. However as per the above, I think the issue is that we need more expert humans.LLM generated code will eventually contain UB.EDIT: added "eventually"

__0x01·5 ay önce·discussIs "AI code review" a correct term?A code review requires reasoning and understanding, things that to my knowledge a generative model cannot do.Surely the most an AI code review ever could be is something that looks like a code review.

__0x01·6 ay önce·discussOften when I look closely at the output of LLM generated code, I see repetition, redundant logic and deeply hidden bugs.Notwithstanding the above, to my understanding LLM services are currently being sold below cost.If all of the above is true, at some point the degredation of quality in codebases that use these tools will be too expensive to ignore.
__0x01·6 ay önce·discussThese LLM tools appear to have an unprecedented amount of access to the file systems of their users.Is this correct, and if so do we need to be concerned about user privacy and security?
__0x01·6 ay önce·discussMy understanding was that atherosclerotic plaques are comprised of cholesterol or fatty deposits [1] and that these can lead to CVD.The fat mechanism I understand, but what is the mechanism for sugar in CVD?[1] https://www.heart.org/en/health-topics/cholesterol/about-cho...

__0x01·9 ay önce·discussIs cost a risk here? I'm assuming that sometime in the future the price for vibe coding/engineering will go up significantly.
__0x01·9 ay önce·discussI have noticed that many of the most used and loved projects use C/C++.With all of the unpopular press that they get, why has history often proven C/C++ to be the right choice time and time again?
