> Well, there is no concept of "the current directory" in the UI of explorer.exe the way there is in CMD.EXE or Bash. You can have multiple directories open and none of them are privileged over the others.

Wouldn't you just have multiple explorer.exe windows open, each with a different folder open? Wouldn't that be similar to having multiple cmd.exe or Bash processes open, each with a different current directory?

Further, they may change the behavior of the existing model without providing clear notice. E.g. existing models start to behave worse shortly after new model releases, due to resource reallocation away from the older models toward the newly-released ones.

This phenomenon is referred to as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativity

I'm pretty sure Coursera or edX was using this same approach a while back — they'd make you type in a paragraph of text, then they'd use the timing information as a fingerprint or signature, to authenticate you as the actual student.

In software, this is known as Hyrum's Law: https://www.hyrumslaw.com/

> There's also the weirdness of tunneling protocols like PPPoE which only exist to tunnel Ethernet through non-Ethernet systems.

Isn't PPPoE the opposite — carrying a non-Ethernet protocol over Ethernet?

Someone here mentioned a whole ago that the labs deliberately haven't tried to train these characteristics out of their models, because leaving them in makes it easier to identify, and therefore exclude, LLM-generated text from their training corpus.

Why?

Construction and home contracting follow building codes.

Only if it's decomposing aerobically.

Anaerobic decomposition, like what you find in a septic tank, doesn't produce any heat.

Is nuclear energy considered renewable?

It looks like Slidev is designed for presentations about software development, judging from its feature set. Quarto is more general-purpose. (That's not to say Quarto can't support the same features, but currently it doesn't.)

I'm not affiliated with Slidev. I was just curious.

It's not, to be fair.

This is pretty common in TV shows, from what I've noticed. It takes a few seasons for a show to find its footing.

Does this products directly compete with GitHub Models [1]?

> It may be that like clothes, there's only so much need for software.

Clothing demand has increased greatly in the past decade due to fast fashion. Much of this clothing is designed to cost a few bucks, last a few wears, then get thrown out. It's an ecological disaster.

Maybe we'll see something similar happen with software — as production costs fall, trends will shift toward few-use throwaway software. I highly suspect this is already happening.

I'm unfamiliar with all the changes coming soon. What would you need to refactor?

You would need to rerun the LLM, but you wouldn't necessarily need to rebuild the codebase from scratch.

You can provide the existing spec, the new spec, and the existing codebase all as context, then have the LLM modify the codebase according to the updates to the spec.

Perhaps not for much longer:
