Of course it is B). If you can use LLMs to find bugs and vulns in software you don't own, you certainly can use them to find bugs in software you _do_ own. They are amazing at that job. Also, models like GLM 5.3 have zero guardrails in

In terms of API costs they're about right, 10% of weekly usage on a 5x sub is roughly $40 (for Astra). Chinese models cost roughly half as much (and have fewer refusals). Subs have insane value because large companies cannot use the

Ultra is max reasoning level that splits the work and spawn subagents. Good for whole-project reviews (well, as long as the cybersecurity refusal doesn't appear for whatever reason), but unusable on the $20/mo tier

A README is one of the most important pieces of a project, if one can't even advertise their own project with their own words, it signals low effort. After all, the people visiting one's repo on GH likely have access to the same A

IMO it's fine if you use it to review hand-written code. Vibe-coding (and especially 100% slop projects) on the other hand, is indeed cognitive surrender as it's identical to cheating on homework back then.

Which is not that great for people using less than 50% every week, because the next reset date moves forward too. In essence, it is redistributing compute from people who haven't used their quota much to those who have. Though I think

Anything can be aliased by char, unsigned char, std::byte (as well as signed char in C), and usually uint8_t == unsigned char, thus by extension any valid void pointer can be cast to u8*. Thus void*+size is usually the right type if ones on

You don't even need to use assembly for this, the wait for interrupt typically involves side effects.

The point of the article and of define_static_array is to convert stuff like constexpr std::vector to constexpr std::array. New (and delete) can be used in constexpr functions, however memory "allocated" like that cannot leave the

The DS, more specifically the arm946e-s has an MPU , not a MMU (you're confusing it with the 3DS's Arm11). Not like it makes much of a difference anyway, you configure either once or twice then leave them be. Honestly, I think wh

Doesn't need to be UB, you can write expressions like: "some_s8_var < some_u32_var" and people will be had. Note that is not the same as "some_s8_var < some_u8_var". -Wextra catches stuff like this, alas I kno
