Tech guy invents the concept of giving instructions
post
It would be nice if it was possible to describe perfectly what a program is supposed to do.
Someone should invent some kind of database of syntax, like a... code
But it would need to be reliable with a syntax, like some kind of grammar.
That's great, but then how do we know that the grammar matches what we want to do - with some sort of test?
A codegrammar?
What, like some kind of design requirements?
Heresy!
Design requirements are too ambiguous.
That's why you must negotiate or clarify what is being asked. Once it has been accepted, it is not ambiguous anymore as long as you respect it.
I'm a systems analyst, or in agile terminology "a designer" as I'm responsible for "design artifacts"
Our designs are usually unambiguous
What did you said?

I think our man meant in terms of real-world situations
This still isn't specific enough to specify exactly what the computer will do. There are an infinite number of python programs that could print Hello World in the terminal.
Yeah but that's a lot of writing. Much less effort to get the plagiarism machine to write it instead.
Ha
None of us would have jobs
Who even makes these comics? Is it like Simpsons

Web browsing 101: if you see a hyperlink on social media, you can click on it and then look around to see if it contains more links with useful information, often in the header or footer of the page. Here I found one for you: https://xkcd.com/about/
Human communication 101: sometimes humans ask a question without expecting an answer, it's called a rhetorical question
OP just chatting with themselves so they can screenshot it?
That is some telegram group and both messages shows from left with profile icons(which got cropped). The screenshot person sent the last message which shows double ticks
I wrote a shell script like this (it admin , notna dev) for private use.
The prompt took me like 5 hours of rewriting the instructions.
Don't even know yet if it works (lol)
