Really hoping that all of the attention you're bringing to the longitudinal sloppification of codebases makes it back to the labs and creates some pressure to improve that trait of the models. This new benchmark seems promising.

At the same time, I imagine it will be hard for them to prioritize this over improving flashy one-shots of impressive zero-to-one feats that demo so well and attract more customers.

Can we have simonw make "pelican on a bicycle after 1000 requests for iteration" popular?

i laughed at the pelican bit its good

yes the labs will always prioritize the vibeslop dopamine casino as far as I can tell - making the models useful and addictive for unsophisticated users, sometimes at the expense or at the very least at the ignorance of the needs of power users
