  • Huh. That’s actually kind’ve a clever use case. I hadn’t considered that. I presume the main obstacle would be the token limit of whatever LLM that one is using (presuming that it was an LLM that was used). Analyzing an entire codebase, ofc, depending on the project, would likely require an enormous amount of tokens that an LLM wouldn’t be able to handle, or it would just be prohibitively expensive. To be clear, that’s not to say that I know that such an LLM doesn’t exist — one very well could — but if one doesn’t, then that would be rationale that i would currently stand behind.







  • When I use a website as a source, at the time that I access it for information, I will also save a snapshot of it in the Wayback Machine. Ofc theres no guarantee that the Internet Archive will be able to survive, but the likelihood of that is probably far greater than some random website. So, if the link dies, one can still see it in the Wayback Machine. This also has the added benefit of locking in time what the source looked like when it was accessed (assuming one timestamps when they access the source when they cite it).
