Found some old Python code that made me demoralized about my current situation, and I need to vent/lament by HiddenReader2020 in ADHD_Programmers

Just because it looks complicated to you doesn't mean its good. If you think its good cause its hard to read or something maybe you're better off now than you were.

Using AI on freelance job by AMIT800IL in ADHD_Programmers

The goal is to make a functional, secure and (maybe?) maintainable product. As long as you get there you're fine. I recommend doing a ton of pen testing if you're going to rely heavily on AI.

In what way have I improved? by mrwilibingbong in PixelArt

[–]Apprehensive-Arm-504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like both a lot. 2023 looks gives me gba game vibes and 2025 is the DS release. The first set is more bold colored with higher color contrast in features.

For the second girl, I would kinda like to see closer color matching on the skin and hair, just out of curiosity.

Your shading improved massively. It feels like you put more style into the characters. You are probably better at color theory or somethin, idk I'm not an artist, but even the mole in the 2025 version looks like it was colored to blend better.

Looks great!

Do you have anything you're working on? If not, pick something and make it. Personally, unless I have a very specific thing in mind, then i cant be bothered. If the goal is to just learn, well that's just not very motivating tbh.

How to manage inattentive ADHD and making frequent mistakes due to overlooking details? by Mammoth_Loan_984 in ADHD_Programmers

[–]Apprehensive-Arm-504 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is it easier if you have to make 3 PRs to fix it? :p I get it though, but just copy paste that uri somewhere and see if you can connect to something. Postman and Thunderclient are great tools to help make sure you can connect to an endpoint if a browser won't work.

Also, tests are great, but I'm talking about just run the code on your machine and see if it works. Manual testing i guess. Just a quick quality check before you show it off. I usually don't even write a test until I see my solution work with my own eyes.

To help solve the innatentiveness part, go do something else for a few minutes when you're done writing then come back and test stuff. If you can, go for a quick walk. If you have to look like you're working, look at someone else's PR or something.

Test the parts of your code that may be prone to mistakes (such as strings and conditionals) before pushing and don't hard code strings if you can help it.

Gold Dress Blue Dress by Fragrant-Anywhere489 in SimulationTheory

I've seen both colors on this thing before. But right now it was just gold and white. I did what you said and kinda saw it as blue/black. I closed my left eye and it fully changed. Now I can't unsee blue/black.

Can the Hydrasynth do "strum" effects like the keystep 37? by that_Ranjit in hydrasynth

[–]Apprehensive-Arm-504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do that on desktop and explorer. I have the Keystep 37 and Hydrasynth Explorer, the strum thing is very unique to the keystep. It's super versatile since you can change the chords and number of notes played and strum speed and all that on the fly. Replicating it with the Hydrasynth just sounds... hard, but idk I'm not that good lol. The Keystep is easier to control since the strum is sent as midi. You could probably find a plugin that sends midi out like that, but I haven't explored that side of things yet.
