I think they might mean Word as in Microsoft Word. Just based on the feature list they were describing.
replyAre you comparing 2 relatively simple games with... Word?
replyWord is basically an operating system. Unix people like to make fun of Emacs for being one, but Word is basically one, too. And all the features in there are used, otherwise Microsoft wouldn't keep them around.
>Word is basically an operating system.
replyAnd .doc files are basically a memory dump.
That was certainly true once, but now all that state is serialized to xml amd zipped up. You can unzip it and look at it if you don't value your sanity.
replySo what you're saying is that the files are basically a memory dump formatted as XML? :-p
replyA selective menory dump that when deserialized can ignore fields not present its version, but yeah.
replyDump is a great word for it
replyHaha, I misread as "word games" and was very confused about the claim.
replyNonsense. Provide/create proper tests for all features, and let the LLM test and fix everything.
replyIn case of ccc (claudes C compiler) they just did not use any tests, though they are many existing C testsuite. They just stopped, when it finished compiling the kernel, still failing hundreds of tests.
