Thank you for providing a spelled out definition of "non-trivial" there!

Haha, it was made up on the spot, thank you though! I think your articles and notes are proof that there's a lot of value and use in "trivial" examples. They're very close to the sort of examples a lot of tech people can actually use as individual professional engineers.

I think the void where non-trivial examples should be is the same space where contrarians and the last remaining few LLMs-are-useless crowd hangout.
