lopezb··on Ask HN: COBOL devs, how are AI coding affecting your work?
I can't comment on Zig and Rust, but C is one of the languages in which LLMs are best, in my opinion. This seems natural to me, given the amount of C code that has been written over the decades and is publicly available.
lopezb··on Show HN: A standalone server for probabilistic data structures written in Go
Hey HN, happy new year.

I built PDS, a standalone server for probabilistic data structures in Go. In-memory, uses Redis's RESP protocol, supports HyperLogLog, Bloom Filters, Count-Min Sketch, and Top-K.

If you're curious, I wrote a post about how I built it and how I used LLMs during development: http://lopezb.com/articles/pds-a-go-server-and-an-honest-loo...
