06:45 <discocaml> <丘品煥> Hi guys I am pretty new to the CS and IT fields (Just 6 months into my first job as a backend web developer, and my role has been pretty CRUD thus far in my opinion)

06:45 <discocaml> <丘品煥> I have learned a small amount of functional programming in lisp (not using for or while loops, using recursion and tail recursion, closure, map/filter/forEach operators, return a copy of modified data instead of causing side effects destroying or modifying the current piece of data etc.) just for my own hobby purpose. I have not done any professional work in functional programming yet let alone Ocaml

06:45 <discocaml> <丘品煥> I would love asking you guys who have more experienced on your opinions on LLM (Large Language Model) and Neural Network, on whether they would replace alot of computer programming work in the industry (particularly web dev work that is more CRUD in nature)

06:45 <discocaml> <丘品煥> Also if you guys have written essays, blog, articles or made Youtube videos discussing about this topic, please do send me i would be extremely fervent to read them. Thank you very much !

More specifically, I need to specify C flags, and this requires programmatically querying the include directory for a particular library I want to link
