alt Hacker NewsThere are a definitely few ulcer-inducing events in my past that would've taken me an afternoon to fix with a current SOTA LLM vs 2+ weeks of swearing, crying and stressing out.
There are a definitely few ulcer-inducing events in my past that would've taken me an afternoon to fix with a current SOTA LLM vs 2+ weeks of swearing, crying and stressing out.
When I come upon an issue, I pretty much immediately copy/paste the code into an LLM, with a description of the context, symptoms, and desired outcome.
It will usually home right in on the bug, or will give me a good starting point.
It's also really good at letting me know if this behavior is a "commonly encountered" one, with a summary of ways it's addressed.
I've probably done that at least a dozen times, today. I guess I'm a rotten programmer.
