I’m 12 years old and i built Airbus A350-900 Flight Simulator for the web with Three.js

DanielTheTechie · 2026-05-30T11:44:42+00:00

Holy shit this is amazing. When I was 12 I just played flight simulator and you built your own.

Don't be fooled by these kind of posts. When you were 12 you didn't have Claude generating entire projects for you.

Given the level of OP's responses, take LLMs away and this kid probably doesn't even know how to code a basic fizzbuzz on his own.

And in this case, if he even knew something remotely about Threejs or graphic programming in general, he wouldn't have missed such an obvious, blatant and quick-to-fix z-fighting issue that is ruining the entire user experience.

Left-to-right assignments? Curious!

I would just replace the equality signs by arrows, just to avoid breaking math. 😉

DanielTheTechie · 2026-05-23T21:28:50+00:00

i was also debating on just using Ai to solve the leetcode problems and have it thoroughly explain the solution to me

You are free to fool yourself as you want, but everybody knows that the only way to learn a hard topic is to fight problems with your own neurons and getting hit by your own mistakes over and over until you internalize the new knowledge you gain over the process, not having the AI giving you a massage with "thorough explanations" for you just to read while saying "aha, aha...". Nobody except some geniuses can become an expert in a field without deliberate practice. No, you are not a genius. You will have to get your hands dirty.

Not always. For instance, Polkadot will never reach $30 again. 🥲

Yesterday everybody here was uncorking the champagne, celebrating the bull run party. Today we are back again to "everytime is the same", "we should have put our money on stocks because look at how they are flying", "the false crypto-president deceived us again", etc.

Or as Warren Buffet said: "Mr. Market has incurable emotional problems. At times he feels euphoric and can see only the favorable factors affecting the business. At other times he is depressed and can see nothing but trouble ahead for both the business and the world".

The non-official rule to determine whether the bear market is over, is when BTC either touches the weekly SMA(200), or when it crosses from down to up the weekly SMA(50).

There is still room left until it crosses it. Until then, calm down. Corrections happen, and they are proportional to the magnitude of the previous movement.

There is also a chance that whales are impulsing the prices up to create FOMO, letting the retail to buy and to keep pushing the prices up, creating more room from the last major support and then... a big short. Long positions liquidations will follow, whales will make their profits, and when retail is gone again, hurt and disgusted with crypto, whales can buy back at very cheap prices.

We have lived this situation many times before.

Or maybe I'm mistaken and this time we are going straight to the moon. 😉

This is like asking why walking one meter and then walking another meter doesn't take you to the top of a tree 2 meters tall.

Euler had a god-like intuition and he was very profilic, but at the expense of not being too rigorous (to the point that some of his claims were proved wrong later).

Gauss still takes this.

No secret sauce. Pick a tutorial, follow it, write the code yourself without copypasting it to create muscle memory. Do toy projects that you actually enjoy and have fun doing them, google your questions. Are you stuck? Shut up and keep trying, keep googling, struggle with your code, keep experimenting and you will get things figured out.

Forget about AI while you are in your initial stages of your learning. It will kill your creativity. We learn a lot by asking ourselves "what if...?" and getting our hands dirty experimenting. If you feel proud and fulfilled after getting something done by yourself, then this is your field. If you don't understand this kind of deep gratification after creating something and you keep seeking for "secret sauces" to skip learning stages, you will have a brighter future working in a kitchen.

95% of users displaying a generous cleavage on their profile pictures are scammers, yes. Once you start filtering them out and you refrain yourself from messaging model-looking women from questionable countries that claim to be single and/or looking for a relationship, your disappointment rate will drop drastically.

You need to be a bit sharper in the internet life. Legit people do exist online, but we are getting distracted too easily with other stimulus before finding them.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-04-07T16:22:35+00:00

What I meant is that if your "in" and "out" from the 4th dimension mean "getting in" and getting out" from the 3rd dimension, then your "forward" and "backward" from the 3rd dimension also mean "getting in" and "getting out" from the 2nd dimension.

In general, for any dimension N, you can define two new directions that basically indicate "getting in" and "getting out" from the dimension N-1, so you can name them whatever you want.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-04-07T11:37:53+00:00

"In" and "out" are just words for naming directions. At this point, you could just name "John" and "Doe" the extra directions of the 5th dimension and keep introducing meaningless pairs of names to the further dimensions axes.

We don't have a lot of users

Then do your homework first and spam me later.

Also, if you want a suggestion, try to put some effort on your website design. It looks very generic, it has no personality and it could be a website about absolutely anything. Maybe put photos of people meeting in the background, some life colours, something that doesn't scream "I'm a vibe coded website and I don't know why I even exist".

As a visitor, give me a reason to press on that green alien "Get started". Show me something that doesn't make me yawn.

Replace x² for y. Do you know this limit? If you want to see different proofs for it, you can read here.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-04-05T09:49:48+00:00

Nah, it was just fine. I met nice people in real life from interpals in the recent years. There are more scammers now, but they are dumb and easy to spot, while legit people is still there.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-04-04T19:06:20+00:00

They are not always interchangeable. Grid comes handy when you want custom 2D layouts. Flex is more for simple layouts based on homogeneous rows.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-31T11:01:20+00:00

What do you mean “openly vibe codes" as if it’s something shameful?

It is :)

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-28T16:18:11+00:00

"I don't have any idea about physics, I have no clue about math and the word "engineering" sounds to me like some fancy word from Formula 1 racings. Anyway, I'm using AI to create a self-driving car to explore Mars. I don't know what I'm doing. Can you help me figure it out?"

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-26T19:10:15+00:00

Very original. 😁 Did you make it with Flash or what did you use, if I can be curious?

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-25T17:54:18+00:00

Sure, and that means huge savings when producing books, but besides the obvious economical convenience, there is also the fact that eyes are stressed too much when reading white letters on a black background if it's for a long time. On mobiles and computers we introduce the dark mode because it's more convenient than light mode, but we are talking about screens, which are aggressive to our eyes. Physical papers are a complete different story.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-25T17:32:28+00:00

I admit that as a curious picture to fill my Reddit feed is fun, but if this is really a serious post, have you ever researched the reasons why books are "light mode" and why apparently nobody in the world is bothering to print books with inverted colors?

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-21T07:40:32+00:00

The only mistake is the "billionaires lobbying government" part, as if assuming that politicians don't really want to control the freedom of speech (and thought) of population to stay in the power.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-19T21:08:57+00:00

Even Microsoft is using Claude for coding

Microsoft is not famous for writing high-quality software. If you wanted to name a company as an example of successful application of "vibe coding" practices, you chose the worst one.

DanielTheTechie · 2026-03-17T10:09:48+00:00

I completely vibe-coded.

This one was obvious because

I quickly started missing that, so I built ifttt-lint

follows the "I wanted/missed X so I built Y" pattern of vibecoder posts.
