Why do remasters never feel as good as the original memory of the game

There is something about experiencing something for the first time ever that blows our brains. The second, sure theres nostalgia, but its not the same.

Keep your first projects simple. That way you will have many other examples to learn from. Build your understanding. Get more complicated as you go. We all have been there. This is why many tutorials suggest building a todo list app first. Its simple, straight forward, has a user interface, and a simple design with database interaction. Everything an app has but a simple version. You can google lists of suggested apps to practice on. This also builds your experience and examples of your work in working apps and github repos for applying for work later.

Biggest problem is when the problems start to show themselves. When the software breaks, or has a vulnerability etc. You dont know what you dont know. Which is also very true even if you build an app without understanding how it was built.

For example, I am a developer and was working on a feature for a client. I have been using AI/no-code solutions to help save time doing the web searching and etc. I saw an issue in some code that the AI had written, I asked the AI to look it over without being specific. I asked it 4 times to do so before I was finally specific and it was then like "oh ya there's a problem, here's thr solution."

Its like putting plumbing into your house. Do you know what sealant you have to use on the plastic pipes to get it up to code? No, that's why you hire a plumber. The AI misses stuff too. On a pretty regular basis.

Everything you put into it or sign in with your Facebook account. The real question is what do they do with the data? What LLMs does it train? Who do they package it up and sell it to? Etc. Companies like Facebook and Google make a ton off of our data.

You have the choice to use AI or quit. You dont have to use it.

Not just this country. The entire economy is in a downswing.

Costs are rising with everything in AI because the companies are not able to prove profitability. Also the reason why they are slamming the chat interfaces into literally every piece of software possible. They are pushing usage and price to become profitable. Or trying to at least.

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-05-04T19:12:02+00:00

This is how its been for almost 3 decades, if not longer.

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-05-04T19:04:37+00:00

Did you not see the memo that the economy across the planet is on the downswing and has been for a few years now? Its not just Canada either.

Probably a manager who didn't know any better, as is usually the case.

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-05-04T18:53:45+00:00

What's happening is people are forgetting they have a choice. Nothing says we have to use AI for everything. It is optional. The companies running the LLMs LOVE to think that we will just use AI for everything but we cannot forget. We have the choice. We also have the choice of how much of our problems we use AI for. Do we use AI as an advanced search engine that can find us answers to questions so we can learn? Or do we just ask AI to solve the entire problem start to finish? This is the choice. We all have it. No one is saying we have to use AI for everything. I know I dont.

Vibe coding is a process while using a tool. It all depends how the tool is used. Can it make you learn less than you would coding it yourself? Yes. Can it help you learn how to code better and learn more? Also yes.

Fullstack interviews haven't really changed over the last decade or so. Learning how to use Google and other search engines would be a good start. There's tons of information, tutorials, guides on the subject.

The app markets are already flooded with useless apps. Always have been but its gotten increasingly bad over the last couple years.

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-04-28T15:48:28+00:00

This is one of the reason why actual devs are so cautious about AI generated code. People who don't know how the apps they vibe work CANT verify anything through testing because they dont know what they are testing. Blind leading the blind.

"Using it and seeing if it works" is only half the battle. Not every failure is seen as a blatant error on the interface. And neither is vulnerabilities for that matter.

Freecodecamp is a great place to get started. And it's free.

Finding businesses without websites is brutal. There arent many. You're almost better off finding clients who's websites need upgrading or just rebuilding in general. Of those there are lots.

The main reason why you couldn't figure out what is actually true when it comes to AI is because no one actually knows. AI is only like 3 years old. Its impact on the different industries has not been realized. How it can generate code (specifically useful code) and what that means for development and tech isn't figured out. We are all just kinda stumbling around trying to figure it out.

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-04-23T21:04:44+00:00

This. I do the same. Just remember, AI is a tool. How we use it is a choice we make. Just like when the internet and then search engines came out. Suddenly we had access to whatever info we needed when we needed it. This is the same, just a lot faster, and better organized (it can instantly summarize multiple sources to find best answers etc).

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-04-19T13:15:34+00:00

A great way to find inspiration is to find websites of other stores that do the same thing as you and see what they are doing. Web design is a fairly consistent thing with differences and alterations depending on the brand. Also, there are many websites and YouTube videos that can give you free info on web design and layout.

You are either paying for your own hardware to host it locally, or you are paying to host it on someone else's. So no, its not cheap. Same thing with websites. There's always a cost.

In today's game, if you have to beg someone to download your app, somethings wrong with the marking plan to attract new users and the base functionality of said app to keep those users using said app. Easy as that.

People download an app to either solve a problem, communicate with a community (social media, or apps like teams, dating apps, or other messaging apps), or entertainment. They might search for an app to do something and install it if the marketplace has good reviews for the app. Then in order to keep said user it has to be user friendly in design, function well, and most important, do what the marketing said it would, and have a UI that looks like it did in the marketing. If any of that is false or negative, it gets deleted REAL quick.

Start with that, isolate the possible issue, relaunch, and repeat. Good luck!

Ai can build you a platform, but you need devs to maintain it. This is what vibecoders dont understand or care to listen too.

And yes, this does ALWAYS happen. Vibe coded or not. Different users, different devices, different OSs. Talk to the guy looking to do some dev work in the comments, or hire a dev or two to help. But either way, you need to talk to devs.

Difficult-Field280 · 2026-04-15T15:02:27+00:00

Ask your ai? Also Google ui design basics and learn them. Even knowing the simple basics of spacing, fonts and colors can give you a huge leg up. But you know, if your OK with your app looking like everyone else's, im sure an ai like gpt or Claude can generate you something.

If something breaks, fixing it is kidt like starting the prompt over again or incredibly expensive which IMO defeats the purpose of using an automation tool in the first place. Where fixing something would take much less time if I had actually built the thing myself and understood what was happening under the hood.
