I think things are likely deterministic-ish. In the same way that

select * from lookuptable

is often deterministic. It's not unless it's

There isn't a good way to measure the effectiveness, mostly because the results from LLMs are not deterministic. Using multiple models is mostly to try and understand how different they...

Definitely learn Linux. I miss working with Unix, and while I'm very comfortable in Windows, being comfortable with common *nix utilities and how to navigate is important.

I can see lots...

While our administrations are temporary, the bureaucracy isn't, and a lot of our government legal stuff is caught up there. So I'd suspect that the legal mechanisms that allow the...

I'd like to think various regions or even countries would want to reduce dependence on tech they can't control. The US companies are subject to US law, including subpoenas, so...

I hate mono repos. I think that's how we often "re-used" code in the past, sometimes with a Windows, Android, and iOS apps in the same repo. (though often no...

Agreed, Aaron. I've often caught this stuff in code reviews since so many humans are poor stewards of consistency, including their own.

Those are certainly things you might want to do, but none is really required to remove encryption of the data.

AI can be great for some things. Like putting in the debugging code 😉
