Have you considered throwing away your email spam filters? If so, I commend your willingness to engage with or dismiss the material

I wonder if my intuition here is correct; I would posit that “PL implementation” is a far more popular and well-explored field than it seems. How many toy/small/labor-of-love langs make it to Show HN? How many more simply don’t?

I’ve never personally caught the language implementation bug. I appreciate your perspective here.

Irrespective of the domain you specifically listed in 3 (game dev is, believe it or not, one of the “more complex” domains), you have completely failed to miss the point.

> 2. They're coincidentally good at things I'm good at, and shit at things I don't understand.

This may well be! In the perfect world this would be balanced with the knowledge that maybe “the things you’re good at” are objectively* easier than “things you don’t understand”. Speaking for myself, I’m proficient in many more easy things than hard things.

*inasmuch as anything can be “objectively” easier

I’m curious about how you landed “git gud; prompt better” and not “maybe the domain I work in is a better fit for LLM code”. Or, to be a bit less generous, consider the possibility that the code you’re generating is boilerplate, marshaling, and/or API calls. A facade of perceived complexity over something that’s as complex as a filter-map or two.

Is the implementation untouched by generative AI? Seems a bit ignorant/dishonest to claim “clean-room” in such a case

TIL, thanks!

I was attempting to emphasize the absurdity of any software system being “absolutely correct at all times”. I don’t believe such a system can exist, at least not in such strong terms.

Show me a system for which you believe the audit trail is absolutely correct in every case and I’ll show you a midwit…
