Gemini 3 8 months ago

Your post made me curious to try a problem I have been coming back to ever since ChatGPT was first released: https://open.kattis.com/problems/low

I have had no success using LLM's to solve this particular problem until trying Gemini 3 just now despite solutions to it existing in the training data. This has been my personal litmus test for testing out LLM programming capabilities and a model finally passed.

Claude Skills 9 months ago

Just went to the comments searching for a comment like yours and I'm surprised it seems to be the only one calling this out. My take on this is also that "Skills" is just detailed documentation, which like you correctly point out, basically never exist for any project. Maybe LLM skills will be the thing that finally makes us all write detailed documentation but I kind of doubt it.

we can so readily afford better

Can we really? All the reporting on climate change definitely has me thinking otherwise. There are options more respectful to our planet than digging tunnels like for example planting trees to help mediate temperatures.

Claude 4 1 year ago

While I agree with you in principle give Claude 4 a try on something like: https://open.kattis.com/problems/low . I would expect this to have been included in the training material as well as solutions found on Github. I've tried providing the problem description and asking Claude Sonnet 4 to solve it and so far it hasn't been successful.

Scaling horizontally undoubtedly introduces complexity but it also comes with some upsides:

    * DB backups are now (much) faster.
    * Smaller backups means faster restores which reduces your RTO (Recovery Time Objective)
    * If you have a well architectured application a catastrophic DB failure will now only impact a portion of your userbase instead of all of them.
There are probably more good reasons but these are the ones I could think of now.

While that’s true the article mentions that the definition of “hours with sunlight” they are using is when more than 120w per m2 hits the earth. Around where I grew up the sun would rise around 10AM and then set around 2PM. Not nearly enough to meet power demands.
