Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

in particular well because like i mean getting past the like okay these things are kind of experimental and getting into the like no no like actually we're gonna at some level we're going to i mean i i i don't want to say assume them because we're not really assuming them but we're um but we we kind of acknowledge that like these things can actually um it can be used as part of software engineering what do you want to describe some of the things that you've done recently

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

This is like...

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

And, I mean, this is kind of just a much more elaborate example of really the IDDQD example that you had where, like, look, I've done this once.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

I need you to kind of do it in these subtly different but important ways that are kind of tedious.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

Right.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

I mean, this is just a, in many ways, a much more elaborate version of that where it's like, okay, this is the, we designed this RFD very deliberately.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

A lot of engineering has gone into WIC the way we think about doing this.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

And we have, that has come out from actually like doing it by hand and so on.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

And now we actually need to seem to like kind of knock this out for a bunch of these different services.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

I mean, like, I mean, just to your point, it's like the work that is like, it's just the work is just like not done.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

And you have been like, someone's like, Hey, I was in this service and it has a different, like what's going on over here.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

It's like, Oh, we just haven't gotten to that one yet.

Oxide and Friends

And go into our, this dashboard from two years ago.

Oxide and Friends

And we're waiting for the next, you know, tech you, I mean, tech debt week.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

I mean, it's like, Oh my God, I can, I can feel like my, the tech debt flu coming on for tech debt week.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

Rain, I just cannot emphasize enough how important it is that if you're listening to this as a podcast, please go back and re-listen to what Rain just said, because I think this is so important, and I think it is so important to realize that you've got this power now.

to go deliver a higher quality artifact.

Oxide and Friends
Engineering Rigor in the LLM Age

Yes, the world emphasizes the velocity, which is a term that I, again, don't like because it makes us all sound like projectiles.

Oxide and Friends

But what it allows us to do is do things that we simply never would have gotten to before that allow for more
