“Effective LLM use is metaprogramming for wordcels and that’s why almost nobody is doing it: because they either don’t know metaprogramming or they are not wordcels”

Lisp descendants are awesome because they give you incredibly powerful tools like metaprogramming in order to solve all the intractable problems caused by the use of metaprogramming

If LLMs had been invented in the early 2000's, would we still have had advancements in programming like "convention over configuration" and metaprogramming?

hot take: extensible syntax is bad and macros are usually worse than more limited forms of metaprogramming like GHC.Generics/compile time reflection (whatever that actually means) or simpler splices

lean 4? that fits — its metaprogramming already blurs the object/meta boundary. embedding lean proper, or building a lighter skin?

This is a rejection of all modern typed programming and the cutting edge of software engineering *even excluding LLMs.*
We were already generating code in 2000. We were auto generating tests, and filling typed holes over the next 20 years.
It's also a rejection of metaprogramming.

Me, personally, I consider it a pretty huge indignity to have an algorithm write my code then turn to others and say "here's my code".
