My minimal LLM instructions. These are the current ones for @jetbrains IDEs with their in-IDE AI in particular.

LLMs overengineer so easily. They have verbal diarrhea so readily. They have comments like "set a to 1" for lines like "a = 1" all the time.

This prompt reins them in ... somewhat.

@Boomkop3 I've been coding for 35 years and I'm earning money with it since 1998, so I think I'm fine in that regard. LLMs can do tedious tasks real quick. And are easily overwhelmed with architecture.

I started when I was nine, and my colleague next to me learned c from the guys who were still working on linux back then.

We both tried llm's, but found that even for tedious stuff it cannot compete with even semi decent knowledge of the advanced text editing features available in almost all ide's.

Thank you for your receipts, now learn how to use a text editor properly.

My colleague across from me finds that a good llm helps him search trough large amounts of documentation.

@Boomkop3 It's amazing how even in the Fediverse, there's needlessly toxic people 😄 I think you should lighten up a bit.

Hey, you brought up receipts. Git gud m8

@Boomkop3 You assumed that I can't code, that was toxic already. Don't deflect.

@Boomkop3 But I'll stop interacting with you. Trolls and dragging down and stuff. We all know that.

That was a rethorical statement. When you're good at this, chatgpt isn't much help.
