Generative KI beweist mir gerade wieder seit Stunden, dass sie auf #Babyniveau arbeitet. Ich versuche, sie mit einer Klapper und einem Bilderbuch etwas aufzuschlauen. Je öfter ich sowas sehe, desto naiver kommen mir die Vorstellungen von diversen Firmenchefs zum Einsatz von KI beim #Coding vor.
Writing unit tests for my random number generation library continues to be difficult. My tests are failing because the bias in the distribution exceeds my expectations, but I'm wondering whether I should just repeat the test more times and permit it to exceed expectations some of the time (as long as it does it symmetrically/rarely/etc. My gut tells me that second-order expectations aren't any better than first-order expectations, but another part of me disagrees.
Thinking more as I write this (writing is thinking): second-order tests can at least give me better info to work with towards fixing things I think! So maybe I'll invest in them.

I'm porting a bunch of code that delves heavily into index math from Python to Lua for my incremental/reversible RNG library. In Lua, indices start at 1. I have never in my life been more glad to have a robust suite of unit tests, because the number of off-by-one errors I'm introducing is astronomical.
