@Gargron@mastodon.social As a general observation, I think asking for "civility" is often the equivalent of a "code smell":
Sure, there are cases where it may be appropriate in the current context. However, I suspect that more often than not, it's a sign that one is brushing aside some oppression-related complaint (often from a position of relative power in the situation).
I think it's a good idea to always pause before writing about "civility", and let the matter bounce around in one's head for a while.

So apparently the source code of one highly valued, LLM-based code-production product has been inspected by external actors, and found to be extensive, but not exactly an impressive feat of engineering.
Reportedly it consists in some part of natural language directions that attempt to coax, beg, and beseech the text generator to produce desired kinds of output.
Has anyone coined the term "autocompleading" for this style of software development yet?

@mattblaze@federate.social I think it's a reasonable strategy to get advice from people at the top of a field, if one wants to get more proficient in the same domain ... 🤷 ?
