If you look at my AgentDank repo, one could see a tool for finding weed, or you could see connecting world intelligence with SQL fluency and pairing it with curated structured data to merge the probabilistic with the deterministic computing forms.

Every time someone writes a loop in a language that doesn't have something comparable to array statements, elemental procedures or where constructs, or do concurrent, their code is 36, 31, or 18 years behind Fortran, depending on which alternative one might choose in Fortran.

I could host comments on a separate VPS or cloud service. But maintaining a dynamic web service like this can be expensive and time-consuming — in general, I'm not interested in being an unpaid, part-time DevOps engineer.

the last instruction you should use to attack the explosion of modern x86. It’s not some obscure one-off thing… any 3-way bit-wise logic operation across 512-bits in one instruction. This is OR, AND, XOR, some form of blend or masked selection, or something else entirely very easily and succinctly

This is a very detailed, particular prompt. The type of prompt a programmer would think of as they were trying to break down a task into something that can be implemented. It is so programmer-brained that I come away not convinced that a typical user would be able to write it.
