Yeah sure but that's not what dude above is suggesting. Dude above is suggesting "hello ai please document this entire project for me". I mean even if that did work you still gotta read the docs to roughly the same degree as

It's insane to me how you people are so confident in the LLMs abilities. Have you not tried them? They fuck things up all the time. Basic things. You can't trust them to do anything right. But sure let's just have it generate

The problem is how? The only way I could imagine would be with something like apple vision pro and being able to place windows all around you. Sounds to me like more of a gimmick than a real useful feature. I think we'd need to come up

They do that in the UK - addicts for whom other options like methadone are ineffective can get heroin prescribed and I think it's free too.

Yeah that was my plan B, and I kind of did wean myself off using Oliver Twist chewing tobacco for a couple days. It has about 5mg per dose so much less than the snus I'd been using. Used that for 2 days then cold turkey. The plan if I

I agree. I've never done heroin but I understand the withdrawal is absolutely horrible. I stopped using nicotine this month. I've been using snus which is a Nordic product similar to chewing tobacco. You put it under your upper li

As always the problem isn't the actual thing being discussed - the problem is shitty developers who wrote shitty comments and/or don't update comments when they update code. Good and up to date comments are good and up to dat

The problem is people don't adapt properly. If the business requirements change so much that it invalidates your previous work then you need to re-do the work. But in reality people just duct tape a bunch of workarounds together and yo

That's a great point, and I feel like it is relevant for a lot more than games. We should definitely have a plan before we start, and sketch out the broad strokes both in design and in actual code as a starting point. For smaller thing

Honestly I didn't even know you were allowed to write that much. I've always tried to make the commit message fit in a sentence or two, what you showed here looks more like what I'd write on a PR description. Except I wouldn&

Could you try to substantiate these claims about the US extorting Iran for oil? The only part of your claims that I've found information about is the CIA/MI6 orchestrating a coup in 1953, over 70 years ago. Iran was an ally for a

We all have history. It's not long ago that a lot of us Europeans did some pretty messed up stuff. We got over it and now we're all holding hands and such. Except for the damn Russians of course, because we can't just be frie

Well ideally they should peacefully replace the government with one that aligns with the people's alleged views. Failing that, I don't know. I guess they'll have to figure it out as they go. All I'm saying is it's t

Would you happen to have something like a github repo with examples of those repositories? I'd be interested in seeing that. Personally I'm not a big fan of copious extensions. I use them some times but I'd describe my usage

I agree, C# is my language of choice and I've been using it professionally for over 5 years. I use it for personal projects as well. I'm referring to all the stuff C# has that Java doesn't. Async, ref/in/out keyword

Some notes: .NET can serve the same use cases as Java, it's not just for windows programming. It's actually getting really good. NodeJS does nothing better than anyone. The only things I can think of that make node worth using is

I learned Java in uni and think it's a fine language to start with. It's also been modernized a lot in the past decade, and if you really want a more modern language it's easy to transition to Kotlin. I'd take Java over

You don't need to. One if statement to check that is not a problem. The problem occurs when you have a bunch of other ifs as well to check all kinds of other stuff that a type system would handle for you like nullability, incorrect typ
