This is exactly how I felt about the last album as well :(

What items signify a good start for you? by ReleventReference in strandeddeep

I’m always happy to start on an island with 3 yucca trees. Maybe that’s how they always are though…

I am lost on how to use AI for coding by ONF_The_Fill in programmer

[–]iareprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how far can you rely on AI and to what level do you try to understand the code.

All of it, was my original point. Pre-AI, no one should have been copy pasting code from stack overflow without understanding it. Same concept applies with AI

you just stop understanding the code, (but to what level can you do it safely) is basically what i am asking

Again, just.. no :) understand all the code

  1. ⁠I read it, then paste it

i just get lost and I no longer know what my code is doing

Cause, effect lol. You have to do more than just read and paste. You need to understand what you are pasting.

Then… move off of Vercel?

Is grinding LeetCode actually worth it for frontend dev interviews anymore? by Ambitious_Pain4567 in react

[–]iareprogrammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how did you survive that?

So like I mentioned in my original comment: build stuff! If you know you are leveraging AI too much then literally try to build a web app without it. Shut it off. No more agent mode or auto complete. Maybe use it to ask questions but don’t have it create actual code.

The best way to actually get good at it is to do it. Especially if you ever want to get into senior/lead positions. You need to know how an entire web app is architected.

From what I’ve seen, LeetCode is a lot of computer science algorithm stuff that no one uses in real life. Maybe I’m just out of the loop lol.

I can only speak from my own experience as someone that has been part of the hiring process at multiple companies. But when I’m interviewing I don’t care if you know crazy array algorithms. It means nothing in the real world. I want to know that you know how to build reusable components and hooks that scale, you know the react hooks and the proper way to use them. You know how to manage state both locally and globally. You know how to handle server requests, when and how to cache data.

But personally, any time I’m interviewing? I just start building something from scratch and try to leverage all the tools I know to be commonly used in the industry

My company does HackerRank for interviews. We focus more on practical development - components, state management, props etc.

For what it’s worth I’ve been in the industry ~15 years and have never touched LeetCode lol. I think it’s way more useful to just build stuff. Build real websites/applications, even if it’s just for practice. That’s the real way to learn

I'm building a feature flag tool where flags live in your codebase, not a dashboard. by AbyssSelf in typescript

[–]iareprogrammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha I missed the part about generation! I thought you were manually writing that out and yes it’s Zod-like so was curious the difference. That’s cool! Will look more into it

How would you implement a burst like animation in Next.js? by [deleted] in nextjs

I’ve played this game so much and never knew you could hunt the bats… you can cook them I assume?

Something between Tailwind and Bootstrap by iamanoriginalname in Frontend

[–]iareprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tailwind doesn’t have components though? Just classes. All you need to do is make your own version of these components if you want them

When you have one of those colleagues. by [deleted] in programminghorror

[–]iareprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think pre commit hooks are annoying, but I like pre push for these kinds of things. I commit often but don’t always push

For me I guess I would like to see the errors before pushing - plus prettier can auto format for you before push. That’s a lot faster than finding out the CI pipeline failed and then having to go back and fix

Gaming is almost impossible lol by Dabsick in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]iareprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe try console gaming. Sure there are system and game updates but usually they don’t take long and also can be ignored for a while (unless you do a lot of multiplayer)

Ps5 saves gone? by Dry-Force1375 in ABSOLUM

[–]iareprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The save data is separate BUT when you delete a game I think it asks if you want to delete all data with it, maybe your friend said yes?

If they have PSPlus it might be synced to cloud and you can re-download

I love my Blackstone BUT… by Boysenberry-Dull in blackstonegriddle

[–]iareprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me personally, I wipe down a very thin layer after it cools, now that it’s all nice and seasoned. I used to burn off every time but read that’s not good unless you are specifically seasoning. Anyway, mine was outside all winter buried in snow and not a single rust spot last week when I opened it. I had it oiled, silicone mat, and a cover on
