"Why should I change? He's the one who sucks."

That was funny in the movie. In real life, he won't change. You're the one who has to deal with constant avoidable frustration.

If you call a variable tau in production code then you're being overly cute. I know what it means, because I watch math YouTube for fun, but $future_maintainer in all likelihood won't.

Where do you draw the line then? Stopping at `tau` just because `$future_maintainer` might get confused feels like an arbitrary limit to me.

What about something like `gamma`? Lorentz factor? Luminance multiplier? Factorial generalization?

Why not just use the full sentence rather than assign it to an arbitrary name/symbol `gamma` and leave it dependent on the context?

And it's not that hard to add an inline comment to dispel the confusion

  const tau = 2*pi; // Alternate name for 2pi is "tau"

So, Game Genie for 2025?

I share your opinion on the results, but why would you trust the LLM explanation for why it does what it does?

I don’t trust it at all. I wanted to know if he would be able to explain its own results. Just because it was displaying sources and links made me trust it until I checked and was horrified. I wanted to know if it was old link that broke or changed but no apparently

You said:

>...it finally told me that it generated « the most probable » urls for the topic in question based on the ones he knows exists.

smrq is asking why you would believe that explanation. The LLM doesn't necessarily know why it's doing what it's doing, so that could be another hallucination.

Your answer:

> ...I wanted to know if it was old link that broke or changed but no apparently

Leads me to believe that you misunderstood smrq's question.

No I got the question, I said that I wanted to see what kind of explanation it would give me. Ofc it can hallucinate that explanation as well. The bottom line is I don’t trust it, and the source link are fake (and not broken or obsolete)

Perhaps those who make assertions based on "common sense" instead of evidence are pests, and thus pesticides are effective against them?

My definitely Asian wife's definitely Asian first cousin is deathly allergic to peanuts.

and now I can direct people to you for Asian with peanut allergies lol... but yeah just saying incident rate is crazy low.. I probably know indirectly around 2000 Asian or so growing up in Asia till I was 10 never heard of anyone had peanut allergies.. seafood yes, but peanut would be considered borderline theatrical definitely not anaphylaxis styled

I had the great pleasure of studying compilers, and then optimizing compilers, with Dybvig at IU in the late 2000s. He was a phenomenal professor; obviously deeply knowledgeable (that's a given), but also uncommonly gifted at imparting that knowledge.

I had the good fortune to be in Dybvig’s compilers class in the mid 2000s. The way it was presented really brought the concepts to life and made it enjoyable.

One of the funniest moments I remember from that class is he suddenly noticed the parens didn't match in the snippet he'd written on the board - so he counted through the trailing ))))) and inserted a close paren at the right place.

It's incredible that this project is still alive and kicking. I love that they have a whole archive of old builds and descriptions. Based on the descriptions I must have played this around March 2001 (a few months before the release of Sonic Adventure 2!)--my memory exactly matches up with the description of Demo 2. I doubt at the time that I thought it would even make it to a Demo 3! Kudos to everyone involved.

I'm a front-end specialist with 14 years of experience and a particular expertise in building component libraries. I've spent most of my career primarily self-directed; I'm very accustomed to coming up with solutions for ambiguous or even unknown requirements. I have a strong eye for design, which is both a blessing and a curse. I'm looking for an opportunity to work full-time with a small, passionate team.

I design and build keyboards on the side. My latest keyboard design uses 100% custom firmware with 0 dependencies, which involved a lot of internalizing the USB HID spec--that is the kind of thing I do for fun. I also placed 54th in Advent of Code 2020.
