| | Often, technical documentations include lists or other snippets of text that are strongly related to some of the projects code. vpypes documentation is no exception to this. For instance, the Built-in symbols section lists the units available to expressions: These units are related to the following piece of code: # vpype/utils.py UNITS = { "px": 1.0, "in": 96.0, "inch": 96.0, "ft": 12.0 * 96.0, "yd": 36.0 * 96.0, "mi": 1760.0 * 36.

But it has serious issues: It requires one to copy it to the source tarball, has no stable API, and requires Python for building. Furthermore, support for unit testing is broken: It runs the unit tests, but does not abort the build process if the tests fail and does not display why the tests fail.

| Large Language Models (LLM) have enabled machines to write code. The resulting movement, AI-assisted coding, promises to improve the productivity of software developers. However, AI-assisted coding is still in its infancy. This implies that we should embrace it with caution, guardrails, and realistic expectations. This talk presents both the short- and long-term implications of using
