Shumer666··on Coverage-guided and grammar-aware and LLM fuzzing finds 100 compiler bugs
Notbad work.Most posts aboutcompiler fuzzing are just... I ran AFL on gcc with greasy fingers and got a stack overflow in the lexer.Here's my Medium article.

The extra bits come from adding more data, like trading volume, volatility, and technical indicators. I also throw in market sentiment and smart RNG to simulate realistic fluctuations. Plus, I use genetic algorithms to evolve and optimize the sequence, making it a dynamic representation of the market. So yeah, it's not just fluff—it's layered with real market insights.

Anyone who can decode the secrets of life itself! Reading ACGT strings isn't just for biologists—it's for anyone who wants to see the market with the same complexity as DNA. While teenagers might breeze through price/time graphs, those who can interpret ACGT strings are diving deep into the genetic code of the market. It's like comparing a tweet to an epic novel—the level of detail and insight is on a whole different scale. So if you're up for the challenge, grab your lab coat and let's decode some financial DNA!
Shumer666··on Leaving Haskell behind
First off, learning Haskell's like trying to decipher an alien language. If you're used to plain ol' if-else loops and straightforward variable assignments, prepare to have your brain twisted into knots. Haskell's got monads, and no, they're not some new type of space monster – they're these weird abstract things that'll leave you scratching your head and questioning your life choices.

Now, I know we all love libraries that make our lives easier. But with Haskell, you might find yourself on a treasure hunt for a library that actually does what you need. The Haskell library scene's like a half-empty thrift store – you gotta sift through a bunch of outdated, half-baked options before you stumble on something that kinda works. And don't get me started on documentation – it's like reading hieroglyphics half the time.

Oh, and performance? Sure, Haskell's got that reputation for being all slick and optimized. But in the real world, you might end up scratching your noggin over why your code's chugging along slower than a snail on a summer day. Lazy evaluation sounds all fine and dandy until your app's gobbling up more memory than it should and moving slower than molasses in January.

Let's talk job prospects, shall we? Unless you're hoping to work on some super niche project for a company that's all in on Haskell, you're gonna have a tougher time finding a gig than a polar bear in the Sahara. It's like showing up to a party where everyone's talking about the latest celebrity gossip, and you're there with your collection of 19th-century poetry – cool, but outta touch.

And let's not forget debugging. Imagine trying to find a needle in a haystack, except the needle's your bug and the haystack is a jumbled mess of functional hieroglyphs. Good luck trying ^^
