I have used the new template below to show how it looks. We can add more details to the linked CONTRIBUTING.md in the pop repo.
I have not included any LLM (also known as AI) generated content in...
As a retired senior programmer, I would have loved to use LLMs in the past for very specific things. I wouldn’t use it every day, but like every couple of months I had to do a massive refactor that took weeks to complete. I usually ended up writing codemod and just painfully changing tens of thousands of lines of code. Would be cool to just say “hey LLM, see how I did this one? Do the same thing everywhere else you find it. If you encounter anything that’s too different from my template just leave it for me to review”
Yeah, and that’s the stuff people don’t talk about
I have used it to do a lot of refactoring too. Vs code has been able to do basic refactoring for a while, but, it is also good for splitting up code into different files as an example (as long as you use a plan, it works well)
But, that’s because it’s also been trained how to do these tasks. And it isn’t really doing much with the code for them
