Can that scale down to individual .cpp files though? My understanding was that it works more at the package level.

This is just playing around with word definitions. We all know what "coding is largely solved" means intuitively. No compilers and DSLs did not do that.

Coding is unfortunately largely solved. Unfortunate for my career prospects anyway. It's awesome that I can just create pretty much any tool I want in a few days. Also I'm finishing so many unfinished side projects!

But yeah, I'm pretty anxious about my job.

I wonder which cheap Chinese LLM was used to write this...

It's really not obvious that SQL is supposed to be pronounced sequel. If they wanted that they should have gone with a more contrived acronym.

Ah good point. Guess you'll have to explicitly check.

Yeah... when the only documentation is CLAUDE.md...

Still you can see why right? Improving docs/understandability for AI is good for them - they get more capable AI. Improving it for humans only helps other people, which is less of a priority.

I haven't used it yet but assuming they did it right, yes you can merge the PRs sequentially.

I've spoken to two friends recently, who are just normal (but highly skilled) devs, and they both said they don't write code any more.

That's about as random a sample as I can get. These aren't Anthropic employees on Twitter. Just normal people.

So if you think AI isn't revolutionising how software is made then I'm afraid you're in the "it's just Apple fanboys buying the iPhone; Nokia forever!" stage of denial.

Well it seems a bit hollow for the Zig developers to say "there's no problem - just use a style guide!" when they themselves don't even use one and the only one they can point to just says "never dynamically allocate".

To be honest I don't see how a "style guide" is going to help. C++ has had all sorts of guidelines and style guides for decades and it helps a bit but... not really.

What does the Zig compiler's own style guide say about avoiding memory errors? As far as I can see nothing?

Bun didn’t even try one

Is this style guide not a style guide?

No. Rust is extremely popular in industry so corporations are supporting it.

1. Pay to use the better models.

2. Ask it to write a Typescript script using Deno. Bash is a horrible error-prone language. Humans cannot write correct Bash scripts; no way AI can do it.
