Explain ACLs by showing me a SQLite table schema for implementing them. Here’s an example transcript showing one of the common ways I use LLMs. I wanted to develop an understanding of ACLs - Access Control Lists - but I’ve found previous explanations incredibly dry. So I prompted Claude 3.5 Sonnet:
Explain ACLs by showing me a SQLite table schema for implementing them
Asking for explanations using the context of something I’m already fluent in is usually really effective, and an great way to take advantage of the weird abilities of frontier LLMs.
I exported the transcript to a Gist using my Convert Claude JSON to Markdown tool, which I just upgraded to support syntax highlighting of code in artifacts.
