What happens when you have a codebase made with gcc for let's say 8 hours? Are you able to efficiently, smoothly and productively take over the assembly code?

1. When and how would gcc go down?

2. How often do you think that happens, compared to Claude?

  • You can use a local model, which will go down exactly as often as gcc will. We may still have hopeful notions of being able to understand the codebase, but the reality seems to be that the codebases we don't understand will be the ones that will win out in the market, because they'll be cheaper while still only having about as many bugs as they had when people wrote them.

Is this really a position you want to take in public with your real name and identity and everything plastered over your profile?
