You made that up, no one's ever heard of such a thing.

The globe is cool, but I find it unsettling that Japan is missing.

Regarding compilecommands.json ... I assume you intened crow packages to be portable, how would one specify macos , linux, windows compile command separatly?

Most libraries build with cmake, make etc, how does this interact?

additionally (but related), what programming language is the easiest most efficent for you to reason about and feed back to AI in English (or your native language)

In Sweden,the Employment Protection Act, (LAS ) mandates 'last in - first out', meaning if there are layoffs due to over-capacity, people with seniority (years of employment) take priority for available positions. This is kind of partioned by profession-group, so yes you can fire nurses but keep doctors, or other way around. (Its been a while since I looked into it, but thats the rough gist of it)

Thats a wonderful explanation (and roughly the conclussion I arrived at after browsing the paper), I just wish it would have been in the original post.

After a quick content browse, my understanding is this is more like with a very compressed diff vector, applied to a multi billion parameter model, the models could be 'retrained' to reason (score) better on a specific topic , e.g. math was used in the paper

I think it will be even worse. Like, "Im having terrible pollen allergies - what can I do?"

Response will be very scientific sounding version of; You need some brand XYZ anithistamin , it will give the best effects, and the others you should only try if you low-key are looking to die.

Definetly, thats how I have felt about and used C++ for most of my career. ( well except I dont select C++ for personal projects).

I wouldnt go as far as to say, I dont like Rust, but it doesnt come natural to me like many other languages do after several decades of experience.

This is actually the scariest part. Because lately even authors and creators who are not using LLM are starting to pick up some of these ways of expressing themselves.
