Excellent read. This consolidated and catalyzed my my spurious thoughts around personal information management. The input is generally markdown/pdf but over time highly useless for a single person. Thete would be value if it is passed

No, english is my second language. I had already established from previous chat that upon asking for server.c file, llm's answer was working correctly. Rest of the sentence is just me asking it to use and not use certain header files w

Yes. This is funny when I know what is happening and I can "guide" the LLM to the right answer. I feel that is the only correct way to use LLMs and it is very productive. However, for learning, I don't know how anyone can rel

There is no easy way to share. I copied them in google docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GidKFVgySgLUGlcDSnNMfMIu... One with ChatGPT about dbms questions and one with claude about socket programming. Look

A current 3rd year college student here. I really want LLMs to help me in learning but the success rate is 0. They often can not generate relatively trivial code When they do, they can not explain that code. For example, I was trying to lea

I am sorry. I really don't see your point. Typescript is in a completely different league of languages than rust/c/c++ with vastly different use cases. Also, the world still mostly speaks C99 when iterative improvements are c

From my perspective (college student), it is true that there is godly amount of C code in the world which would remain true for a long long time. In similar sense there are also quite a lot of new java developers who maintain the millions o

Fair enough. I have personally experienced pain with phantoms. But then what would you advice to do ? There are nightmare patterns in rust and c++. Looks to me as pick your poison just that one is new and other has been around for fair bit

You examples seems to be for a dynamic environment where things are changing. Rust is naturally at slight odds in such a scenario Instead of quick and dirty, it allows to embed the logic in the type system such that the compiler can help yo

It is great that the ecosystem is growing, but there is still time for things to trickle down. As college student I have invested time into rust because I see value in the language but there are absolutely zero entry level jobs or internshi

Although in rust, function like macros make it super hard to trace code. I like them when I am writing the code and hate then when I have to read others macros.

The first piped query language I used was Nushell's implementation of wide-column tables. PRQL offers almost similar approach which I have loved dearly. It also maps to different SQL dialects. There is also proposal to work on type sys

I am not deep into llms so I ask this. From my understanding, their last model was open source but it was in a way that you can use them but the inner working were "hidden"/not transparent. With the new model, I am seeing alo

Using theory of patches would better compliment the current approach. Integrating a scm such as https://pijul.org or atleast the underlying tech would allow for better conflict resolutions. Transferring patches should also allow

Fair enough. I went through qr code of my previous metro ticket to see what info they encode. It is non standard so there were - some hashes - type of ticket, in my case single use, - time of issue, - valid upto time, approx 10hrs, approx

I am not sure which part is impractical. In India we already use QR code for metro tickets. The system design is definitely different from one mentioned and mimics more of how airport tickets work.

Really excited about semantic index. This should allow for google knowledge graph like features grounded in reality for their llm. However it really depends how well it works.

My entire post very was poorly structured. Properly conveying experiences is hard in text, my bad. Just be cautious when you see big scary numbers.
