I'm moderately convinced this argument is wrong, and that llm tools are different in kind to the other ones mentioned.
The inputs are different and there is no determinism to build upon. Using eg. Codex to write a program doesn't feel like programming.

We've used tools like linters, vetting, and even to my dismay, do not edit code generation. Where were all these voices when we started using that tooling? Why is this tooling any different? It's not.

I discovered sharded model files this weekend on HF. Reached out to @deadprogram and he added support in Yzma for this.
I had to make some breaking changes, but now Kronk supports sharding.
You better have a decent amount of memory because these models are large. I tested it with llama 3.3 70b.

Got feedback: my goroutine-leak series was too dense. Fair.
So I wrote Part 0: A gentler intro.
Core idea: spawn a goroutine, you become a parent. Leave before your child can finish? You've abandoned them. Forever.
That's a goroutine leak. And Go has no goroutine GC.

For the first time in my life I can code a frontend system thanks to @sourcegraph.com #AMP tooling. I love the ability to ask the agent for the changes I need and it does it perfectly.
I'm good at creating repeatable patterns, so I think that helps. It's really an exciting time.

Using an age keyserver as a demo, this article demonstrates how to add a transparency log to a centralized service step-by-step.
We use Tessera for the tlog, VRFs for privacy, and the Witness Network. It all takes just 500 lines to integrate!
The result of years of work making tlogs accessible.
