How I write software with LLMs

It very much does have to modify the binary it produced to create new code. The entire Linux kernel has an unstable ABI where you have to recompile your code to link to system libraries.

The Linux userspace ABI is actually quite stable and rarely changes. If this wasn't true, every time you installed a new kernel you'd have to upgrade / reinstall everything else, including the C compiler, glibc, etc. This does not happen.

The Linux kernel ABI (kernel modules, like device drivers) on the other hand, is unstable and closely tied to the kernel version. Most people do not write kernel modules, so generally not an issue. (I did, many years ago.)

Isn’t that the reason that Android phones have piss poor support after being released?
