Large Clodsire Language Model burning through GPU cycles to produce text like "clod clod clod clodsiiiiiiree" and "reported." and C++ code

@vaporeon_ mentioning LLM is bad enough, but then you said i'd write C++ code. fucking reported.

@wallhackio Are you implying that you don't write C++ code?
Then why do you know the C++ spec?

@vaporeon_ I write C++ unwillingly in the pursuit of Understanding because I WILL fuck around and I WILL find out

@vaporeon_ even more specifically, I had to write C++ as an undergrad in college for my physics research and when reading something that the creator of the language (Rene Brun) wrote, they mentioned you could iterate over some data using a construct like the following:

for (TList&& thing: listOfThings) { /* use the thing /* }

and then Brun was like "if you're not familiar with the double ampersand syntax, its a relatively new language feature called an rvalue reference" and I was like "the fuck is an rvalue reference"

So then I started reading and then eventually got to this web page: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/value_category.html

and my poor undergraduate mind was just like o______________________________________o so I gave up on it.

But it lingered in my mind for years later as a Thing That I Could Not Understand. It ate away at me. I tried again later in grad school, only to go o______________________________________o again. Maybe this was simply beyond me.

Flash forward a couple more years and now I'm a software engineer. Then they made me do C++ for work. I'm like, "I'm more familiar with software these days maybe finally I'll undestand it" so I researched it again only to go o____________________________________o once again.

But no, this cannot be! I WILL do it!! I WILL FIND OUT!!!! So i kept at it for months afterwards and he we are.
