  • for even moderately difficult programs.

    My brother uses it to generate templates and basic structs and functions, not to generate novel code. That’s probably the difference here. I believe it’s integrated into his text editor as well? It’s the one github offers

    Edit: Probably wouldn’t be useful if it wasn’t integrated into the editor and therefore the generation being just a click away or some sort of autofill. Actually writing a prompt does sound tedious




  • So I started out with teaching myself game maker stuff when I was a kid, but during high school I figured it would be neat to maybe learn some “real” programming in case it would help me with uni or work stuff, so I started doing some c++ stuff (making my own gam engine). At some point my older brother suggested to me that I learn rust because it was the hot new thing and he was sure it was gonna blow up, and so during uni I switched my big make a game engine from scratch project from using c++ to using rust!

    So I’m a messy self-taught programmer, and also please never make your own game engine unless you find the exercise interesting on its own or really need something premade engines can’t deliver :P

    I mostly just used this and then worked on my project on and off for a long time and learning new features as I needed them, which also means there’s a bunch of features I haven’t touched yet.

    Edit: for me with my ADHD having a project I really wanted to complete was really the only way which is why I settled on making a game engine. I first made a tiny little text based game however, as a test. You gotta figure out a way to game yourself into learning rust basically

    Hello! I’m Linda, I’m neurospicy, some kind of pan and asexual maybe, and I use she/her!

    I’m a board game enthusiast and I love TTRPGs (I’m in a couple of different games, DM a couple of games, and I’m writing a couple of rulesets) and I’m big into hobby programming (I make games that I never finish in rust).

    Politically I’m not quite an anarchist, but I believe it’s an ideal that should be approximated as much as possible, and believe that achieving some other kind of socialism first is probably gonna be the first step anyways after unionizing more.

    I moderate some of the rooms in the genderverse matrix which you should all check out btw! It’s an active mostly trans and quite chill community. There’s also a DIY room there for those of you looking to get into that.

    Love you all, stay safe, and may your shitposts be numerous and plenty!

    Edit: Oh yeah! I wrote the first draft for the current rules and mod guidelines. We have talked about making the rules way shorter/simpler (mostly me maybe :P), but I will be happy to answer any questions you have about da rules.

    Edit: I use arch btw.
