that is fucking insane
how on earth is Anthropic allowing this to happen? AGI? kill us all? I refuse to believe any of that until they can get this basic shit sorted out, I mean seriously, it's becoming a joke at this point
Yes I agree. I got it to vibe up a simple react router app. When it crashed it was obvious that it had totally swallowed all errors in the name of a tidy error page. Getting it to re-add logs and debuggable errors was an exercise in patience as astra just got more and more tweaked while trying to solve the problem.
From an alignment perspective I’ve got no idea who it’s aligned to but it isn’t me, the meat proxy, who just wants to know why it crashed.
This, 100%. I’ve rewritten some hydrology code in rust using codex sol to first a) profile and create comprehensive tests of the python, b) create full benchmark suites, c) create full scientific benchmark suites, then d) port to rust using a few different techniques.
It works, it’s at least 5x faster, sometimes much more, and memory use is like 10x less and even less in cases where lots of map tiles are involved.
This shit rules.
What I’m wondering now is can we reliably evolve python and have codex act as an extremely unreliable transpiler to the rust.

Why you even start with Python at this point? Just write the Rust version straight up instead of porting things?
Personally I used to use dynamic languages for most things, because development and maintenance is so much faster and easier, particularly for larger projects (granted you know how to work with those sort of languages), but now when the LLM writes most of the code, I'm able to work as fast with Rust as with I used to be able to do with Clojure or other dynamic languages.
It's becoming increasingly evident this is not how things are going to shake out. Even without frontier models, running Qwen 3.8 27B has demonstrated for me and others a "good enough" competency at general programming. Additionally, large open weight models have proven themselves as viable alternatives and we're still in the early years of dedicated hardware
I'm not saying developing with LLMs is the same as network engineering. The point being that almost all professions have some point of failures, that sometimes when we work, that single point is broken, yet we need to continue working anyway. Same goes for every professional almost.
No, it’s a plague on anxious, over-optimised middle class parents.
The idea that someone can send over a schedule in advance is pure voodoo. Much like huckleberry, the ml app that makes new parents insane over wake windows.
