lol what? There are papers on programming languages all the time.
> 1. One is something that has been done many times before and the other an unsolved problem. It doesn't take a genius to see one estimate is likely much stronger than the other.
Building a compiler for a new programming language, building net new code, etc, is all stuff that was unsolved / had not been done before.
> 2. A moderately interesting open research problem is not the same thing as a moderately interesting problem and you seem to be conflating the two.
Feel free to explain the difference, I guess.
>lol what? There are papers on programming languages all the time.
Sure and have you read them ? They're the results of many months or years of research and development so I really don't know what point you think you are making here.
>Building a compiler for a new programming language, building net new code, etc, is all stuff that was unsolved / had not been done before.
Okay but that's not taking a month or two or being asked of LLMs x10000 every day so thanks for making my point I guess.
>Feel free to explain the difference, I guess.
No thanks. If you don't understand it that's fine. This has run its course anyway.
