alt Hacker NewsThey reference gravity in this paragraph and I have no idea what it’s supposed to mean
> Not only is it very hard to create interfaces that have limitations, but a bad decision is not just precedent – it’s code that can be copied and reused. Existing code always had tons of… well, gravity, even before LLMs.
I assume this is just LLM nonsense?
It makes a lot of sense to me. You go in to a code base and start looking for the ways things are done. You copy the precedent. LLMs do that, even harder, they don't really have taste like a human might.
