> things that are out of your control

That's because of corruption. A system that doesn't want to change because some tits can't be let go of. A well working system would render control back to you.

Adding: - I typically ask questions in the I form, regardless for whom or why I ask for. - Gemini chats quite often end when it starts recommending psychological council or a suicide line, to talk about my problems. It apparently detects a persistent tendency to not agree with the party line. So it makes sense I must be suicidal ;-

But sure, as llm's start to babysit us, and know our inner dialog better than anyone else, we'll soon be debugging their opinion/behavior/co-existence/authority, when it comes to reporting people to the authorities, or taking on tasks in society in general. We'll hire doctors to cure our psychological profile from our record (Total Recall).

A Minority Report like this shouldn't cause a referral to the police.

look at the sibling comment, people are already doing this. with time only more people will.

an era is ending. there is a time and a season for everything.

Data loss is the obvious concern. Are you perhaps reusing parts of sqlite or postgres?

It tends to make sure you understand the system fully, as no foreign concepts need to be imported and deferred to. That should make your organization run better.

Just like Rust does, btw.

Thx.

Ultimately this system will encompass the whole OS, of course, but the DB might be the best place to start.

Next step: America send a governor to Brazil, and allows it to enjoy and participate in the enlightenment emanating from the Gold House. Just revere.

It's a lot stricter across files, than within a file. Within a single file, it labels as renamed/edited when the old and new are 75% the same code (ignoring formatting) along with a couple of other rules. Across files, it pairs code that's identical, or at minimum kept the same name and is at least 60% identical, if it was renamed in addition to being edited+moved it's never matched.

There's no similarity-based fallback to a line diff because the line diff is always there. These labels sit on top of it, so a wrong label can't hide anything, and you can see both sides of any match it claims.

Admittedly those percentages are a bit arbitrary, and I probably need to think about it a little bit more. If you do run into issues with it, please let me know.

How did we ever get here??

As a user that's so outrageous it must be a deliberate conspiracy against C. I'm sure it isn't but it certainly helps it's demise, as the feeling the tool is in the hands of imbeciles that mistake the trees for he forest. C now requires you to be an expert on undefined behavior, and the psychology regarding the matter, while previously C would be forgiving.

So I thought the article would be about --forgive --generous, or --embedded while there should have been --petty in the first place.

But minimaxir put out some very thoughtful comments you'd be wise to lend your ears to, because the technical merits your work seems to have will get drowned out.
