i thought I would see a dick measuring joke but this is new

I feel like it is not wise to discard the opinion of a layperson with this reasoning. Sure experts have been working on it as their day job vs. Us just looking at the fruits of their labour. But that doesn't justify the assumption that they are infallible. Don't you agree in our own areas of supposed expertise we are often corrected or get inspiration from supposed laymen simply because we have been too myopic about solving the problem ahead of us?

I'm sure the ML Guys thought of that & tried to prevent it.

Deferring to authority is fine as long as you don't make assumptions about what happened or didn't happen.

brother you're using the wrong thing. First of all you are using crypto that's going to give you some memecoins that are obviously going to collide after 55 hours as what are you even doing not rugpulling the thing day 2?

Second of all, I am pretty sure you should use "RandomUUIDIToldYouSo" module for non-colliding hashes. We all know THAT thing gets its Noise from our parents' instructions on doing a specific thing that keep changing arbitrarily every time you ask.

good thing my gmail is full of spammy bullshit.

Ah but then you would actually have to use C++ /jk

that's unfortunate because even as a ludite i generate some code from LLMs to try things out before working on the application code. But doesn't mean that I copy AI generated code into my application.

Transparency should be trusted to encourage good behavior.

If this company never disclosed their AI usage behind closed doors you would be none the wiser.

Wait how did you identify it's LLM generated? Was it the repetition of the headline in the post body?

yo the people railing against this must consider themselves geniuses. It's like people have a hateboner for rust.

Have you considered maybe that this was expected regardless of what language you do it in? It's a rewrite and that's definitely going to miss several decades of changes that have made the normal version good.

You have to measure the time it takes for the rust version to get to the same level as the non-rust counterpart.

Consider also you actually can't switch off your brain because of memory guarantees. You have to work on other important things too.

Also keep a count of CVEs that the rust version generated and decide if the current port is better or a failure.

because it is a difficult endevaor and earns glory, praise and filthy money if you get it right?

maybe the donor is generous and wishes the problem to be solved for more than one laptop. The benefits compound and for example avoid e-waste.

you say that but they're already thinking a step ahead and assuming meta left a backdoor or CVE at the behest of 3-letter agencies.

What's facebook's business plan? Right, surveillance capitalism.
