| I love how it took you very short to implement...the wrong thing. > I myself just the other day had the task of converting HTML to markdown > you could write an HTML to markdown library in half a day |

| ▲ | williamcotton 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | LOL! Good point, my friend. | | |
| ▲ | williamcotton an hour ago | parent [-] | | Claude Code just added support for HTML to Markdown. Seems to work? | | |
| ▲ | epolanski an hour ago | parent [-] | | In any case, not following the point you're trying to make. | | |
| ▲ | williamcotton 36 minutes ago | parent [-] | | LLMs are pretty good at greenfield projects and especially if they are tasked with writing something with a lot of examples in the training data. This approach can be used to solve the problem of supply-chain attacks with the downside being that the code might not be as well written and feature complete as a third-party package. |

| In less time than that, you could `git clone` the desired open source package, and text search & replace the author's name with your own. |
| |
| ▲ | williamcotton 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | And then still be subject to supply-chain attacks with all of the dependencies in whatever open source package you're cloning? | | |
| ▲ | xrisk 42 minutes ago | parent [-] | | you are aware that the app you just wrote with Claude pulls in dependencies, yes? | | |
| ▲ | williamcotton 33 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Not for the parser, only for the demo server! And I guess the dev dependencies as well, but with a much smaller surface area. But yeah, I don't think a TypeScript compiler is within the scope of an LLM. |
