Absolutely the wrong take. You can teach CS with just pencil and paper, but that doesn’t advance the technology, it might only benefit academia in a narrow sense. CS students should be actively engineering software in addition to doing science.

one step closer to being able to purchase a box of llms on aliexpress, though 1.7ktok/s would be quite enough

defer is a stack, scope local and allows cleanup code to be optically close to initialization code.

Harder: the bike must work

Hardest: the pelican must work

and if you write directly in assembly you don't even need a C++ compiler

That's an objectively correct statement, but I don't see how it makes sense as a response to my comment, as I'm advocating to use the more advanced feature-rich tool over the compiler-specific-hacks one.

If you're advocating switching languages, then there's no reason to stop at C++. It's more common to propose just converting the universe to Rust, but assembly also enjoys the possibility of being fairly easy to drop in on an existing C project.

Your comment started out with "just."

As if there are never any compelling reasons to want to make existing C code better.

But instead of taking that as an opportunity to reflect on when various tools might be appropriate,

You've simply doubled down.

Same prompt assumes same context state. But I think you get what I mean.

It’s been obvious from the start that the $200 point is the free tier

It’s kinda obvious he’s a well spoken shark. Personally not an issue for me, you have to be at the top of a unicorn, but it isn’t something people in general like.

Interesting, are there any sources for the shark claims ? I recently saw an interview with Hassabis and him and thought: <well at least those are two actual scientist leading AI labs/devisions>, so that gave me some hope that what they discussed regarding security and eventual equal distribution of "AI" benefits had some genuine intention.

Don’t be mad at it, be happy you were able to throw some of that sweet free vc money at your hobbies instead of paying the market rate.

Oh I'm not mad, it's more of a sad clown type of thing. I'm still stoked to use it for now. We can always go back to the old ways if things don't work out.
