"With respect let me insult you". Please read the other comments on this post and reconsider your tone. This is a pretty funny troll blog post. It has to be reading through this.

Here https://github.com/DanielJoyce/ls-rs is some-one who applied both techniques to convert `ls` to `rust` via an `ls.objdump`
You don't think the fact that `ls` is decades old, omnipresent and open source might have contributed to the quality of the LLM output in this instance?

Not to mention all the extant Rust rewrites of `ls` et al.

How was the objdump instrumental here, exactly? This isn't impressive.
