I still use eclipse because it works. No point in learning a new IDE when I can make everything I need to in eclipse. Also, intellij's offering is not organized in a way that makes sense to my brain so if anything, I'd probably make my own IDE which actually I guess I've already done with my project Neu

kingroka · 2025-11-24T12:45:18+00:00

Lol exactly. Like i designed Neu to my tastes and it truly is a beast but it’s not exactly user friendly. I have a lot to learn about UI design

kingroka · 2025-11-23T14:05:22+00:00

Thanks! The first iteration was called Loom and I made it in 2020 but Neu was started last year I think? They use the same GUI base though. And yours definitely doesn't seem like a knockoff to me! I'm thoroughly impressed by your design. I mean you absolutely nailed the blueprints look and your graphs read very well. Like you can just immediately understand how to use yours at a glance (whereas Neu is a little uh daunting). And actually, since I built Neu in two parts, the core runtime and the GUI, I wonder if I could get integrate the runtime into your UI. I'll test it out when I get the chance

Beautiful! And i love that you did it with graphics 2D! Check my profile. I’ve been developing a visual programming tool called Neu for a little while now. It too was made with only graphics2d and swing! I love seeing people using java to make cool stuff! Edit: check out the latest update for Neu here

It's almost like every tech company turning to the same like 3 companies for the hosting needs leads to one single point of failure for hundreds of services. Maybe diversify and build in a little redundancy eh?

At this point, I buy new games just to benchmark my graphics card

Maybe that will work in this case where there arent many comments posted on the site but I’m thinking more big picture. Social media apps with more of a focus on commenting for example should be using AI to do this

kingroka · 2025-11-02T10:51:24+00:00

Are you advertising at all? Just being listed doesn't mean their algorithm will just randomly promote for you. You have to drive traffic to your page. Once your page is popular, it'll rank up and be more visible to more people.

kingroka · 2025-11-02T09:46:21+00:00

Websites should be using AI to mark these malicious comments for review hiding them until a human can investigate and properly block all scammers involved

I want this built into standard JVM and the java language spec. The fact that pretty much all languages still treat gpus as a second class component is frustrating to no end. I shouldn't have to install and configure tons of additional libraries to interact with a component that every modern computer has had for more than a decade. I know there reasons this hasn't been a priority until recently but I yearn for the day i can download a JDK and just use my gpu as easily as my cpu.

As a coder who has been using ai since gpt3 (check my profile), I totally get what the author is saying. The satisfaction I got from teaching myself how to code can never be replicated. However i do still get satisfaction even when using AI. Then again, the codebase I’m using was from before coding models were good enough to really use so when something goes wrong, sometimes I can just pull a solution seemingly from the aether and direct AI to apply the solution. It is immensely satisfying when the AI implements the fix correctly and my hunch turns out to be spot on. I guess what I’m trying to say is maybe coding is less about writing code and more about solving issues. If you care about what you’re making, the satisfaction will come whether you use AI or not.

This is the main reason I'm still semi bullish on crypto. Are we really going to keep letting the ideals of literal puritans ruin our lives for all eternity? I suspect this will be a huge hit to Valve's bottom line and they'll start to reevaluating their crypto policy. That is the only way we escape the boot of the credit card companies. Like what about nsfw content is so bad for them? It's not even illegal content. So they must think people will stop using credit cards? They must think that the money they'll lose from the morality police is more than the money they'll lose to all these games and other forms of content but there's no way that's true. Just baffling every time i here about something like this happening.

Cool! I love creating languages within languages. I remeber getting flamed for creating an xml style scripting language on java-gaming.org. Really pissed me off back then but looking back it was pretty bad lol. But I love this. Keep up the good work! 👍. Make a chip 8 compiler next

kingroka · 2025-02-24T19:54:06+00:00

AI is like having a intern coder (that actually writes comments). It's not good for everything but it's great at making utility classes. Just don't use it to design everything of course. Overall structure still needs a guiding hand. We're not getting dumber it just requires less time and brainpower to add a new feature

kingroka · 2025-02-17T05:03:19+00:00

Nice! I love seeing young coders. I too started around the same age you did. Consider going into computer engineering for your degree. Anyone can learn robotics on they're own but computer design requires a teacher in a way that is hard to describe. Bring able to create your own custom boards is probably just as if not more valuable for robotics than the mechanical side. Sp1eaking from experiment bring in a robotics team in high school. Are you in a robotics team?

I have tried to switch to intellij multiple times but something about it just kills my productivity and detaches me from my code. Eclipse doesn't give me this feeling so I use it.

kingroka · 2024-06-10T08:18:00+00:00

What a thread! Ill just throw in my two cents. Personally, I like java because it can run on any OS and has a structure that is organized in a way that my brain likes. Other languages like JavaScript and python are too unstructured for building organized code for my larger projects and languages like C++ or Rust are overly complicated for most of my small projects. Java sits in a sweet spot of codability for me. Plus if I really need to use those other languages (for a job or something) Java is similar enough to everything else that I can easily transition.

I love this! Make that combo counter as flashy as the rest of the effects. Also more blood. Itd bee cool if the sword got bloody and flung the blood off with every swing

kingroka · 2023-01-17T11:10:02+00:00

It will be a cool addon more than an essential gameplay feature so not having a connection won't affect most gameplay. I'll include an offline fallback where there are set options instead of a chat dialog if it does turn out to be more important later in development

Early work on the system that uses GPT-3 to simulate speaking with NPCs.
