| 2026-06-30 21:02:12 +0000 | <int-e> | Well, it's not calle vibe coping for nothing |
| 2026-06-30 21:01:31 +0000 | <tomsmeding> | yes |
| 2026-06-30 21:01:15 +0000 | <int-e> | So... it feels better by an unspecified margin. |

| 2026-06-30 20:59:54 +0000 | <int-e> | I dislike the word "works" in this context, it's too unspecific |

| 2026-06-30 20:57:26 +0000 | <tomsmeding> | which, perhaps surprisingly, apparently works |
| 2026-06-30 20:57:14 +0000 | <tomsmeding> | int-e: supposedly, the fancy ones also do some kind of socratic method stuff: have another instance of the LLM (with a different prompt) judge the output, feeding that back, etc |
| 2026-06-30 20:56:51 +0000 | int-e | shrugs |
| 2026-06-30 20:56:29 +0000 | <int-e> | So the poor humans have to do less of that. |
| 2026-06-30 20:56:14 +0000 | <int-e> | Anyway. The point was that as I understand it, the harness is a kind of lector. It'll catch the most obvious bullshit (code that fails to compile, test suites don't pass, linter outputs etc.) and reject stuff, and I suppose add it to the prompt (call it "refining the prompt" if you want to be fancy) |
| 2026-06-30 20:55:50 +0000 | <tomsmeding> | lol |
| 2026-06-30 20:55:43 +0000 | <Clint> | depends how radioactive it is |

| 2026-06-30 20:54:58 +0000 | <tomsmeding> | don't make fun of bananas, bananas are nice |

| 2026-06-30 20:53:20 +0000 | <tomsmeding> | fair |

| 2026-06-30 20:51:34 +0000 | <int-e> | monochrom: Though his punchline (as I recall it) was very different: "And a single monkey typing away over Columbus Day weekend will give you a Dan Brown." |
