Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 15/12/2024But you are talking about it. And my guess is that it's just meant to be talked about. 030
Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 13/12/2024It also ignores the fact that in spite of my insurance being super good I cannot know how much a procedure will cost, that this cost is variable and up for negotiation, and that the cost incentives are determined by the worst parts of humanity. 030
Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 13/12/2024This ignores the fact that we all know that we will retire and the quality of our coverage will drop significantly. Our current situation might be good, be we know it could change dramatically in an instant. 130

Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 05/12/2024One reason why the South Korean people were able to so effectively mobilize in support of democracy is because they live in a small country where millions are just a subway ride away from the seat of government. This is true in France, the UK, etc. It is remarkably false in the US and Canada. 030

Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 27/11/2024I don't think I mind the use of LLMs for coding _per se_. Even in interviews. But you have to be able to not only solve the puzzle, but also to reason about it. 000
Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 27/11/20243. Most of all, they made a simple off-by-one error that they weren't able to fix. The question made an arbitrary choice that was _slightly_ different than the LLM training set. So the code didn't even work in the end. 100
Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 27/11/20241. They coded from top to bottom with every line being fully fleshed out. Not how people code. They usually code from outside to inside. 2. They were unable to answer basic questions about their code. "Why did you make this choice?" Etc. They kept saying that they would answer questions at the end. 100
Alex Laurin @laurinmath.bsky.social · 27/11/2024For the first time last month I had an interviewee surreptitiously use an LLM to answer the coding challenge. It was obvious for a few reasons. 100
