We've been doing that for years. AI allow you to fuck up much faster and more efficiently however.

Can't do it. I'm refactoring on a large code base. I eventually had to tell it to work on just one task and ignore other concerns it had to prevent it from investigating until it got stuck in a cycle of investigation.
Understood, and yeah single tasking seems like a good workaround given the situation. Or switching to an LLM with a larger context window, if possible/practical. I was able to get about 7X more context window "runway" using the AST approach, but it's a relatively small code base to begin with.
Sounds like you're running up against the context window of whatever LLM you're using. Try converting your code to a minified abstract syntax tree first and pass that to your LLM, and ask it what full text it needs in addition to that. It should stay within the context window much better that way.
I think this might be the first time I've seen a Slashdot comment with a non-alphanumeric character that displayed properly. Nicely done, AC!
Indeed... alpine touring is seemingly more en vogue these days.
Not sure this is really news. Well, except that Texas has stopped buying American.
It's the time change that's the problem. Otherwise being near the timezone border would be an issue.
While we're at it, why don't we pour hot grits on a Beowulf cluster while Natalie Portman confirms that BSD is dying?
On the 5 year post. Don't want to think about how much time I've spent commenting here since then. Damn, I've been here almost 30 years. Still spending my work day in Linux.
Who's this old guy in the mirror?
Agreed. Also, nice to see another 3-digit UID user still on here!

I would say "Mein Leben!", but in this case, it should be "Sein Leben!"
of production made the USSR what it is today!
Keep in mind that the "American Century" included nuclear nonproliferation. Which, to be sure, was already on life support. But it's dead now. We're all going to miss that.
It also included the US Navy guaranteeing freedom of navigation. We're going to miss that, too.

So water minus EVs is negative bad?

I'm still waiting for the advent of the computer science groupie.
