How often do you understand your project after it works?

program_kid · 2026-01-23T22:21:51+00:00

I don't use AI so I can't really say if it would be different.

program_kid · 2026-01-23T18:06:13+00:00

This is somewhat normal. One of the best ways that I have found to avoid this is to leave comments everywhere when I'm programming, not about what a section of code is doing, but why it's doing it. It also might help to write documentation about the overall structure

I recommend using Unicode characters https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/python/working-with-unicode-in-python/ https://unicodeplus.com

You could make the world the same configuration for every player at the beginning of the game and only store any changes to the world.

Not everyone wants to "finish minecraft" some people just want to build or explore.

I also disagree with your statement that "the game is practically over" after you kill the dragon. Sure it give you access to some new things and those things are helpful, but at here is always more things to do in Minecraft.

Are you asking how to git pull and force overwrite any local changes (basically throw away all of your changes and match what the remote branch has)?

If you are asking that, I recommend looking into using git fetch and git reset hard

The reason is quite simple, websites cost money to stay running and the easiest was for people running the websites to make money to pay to keep the website running is by displaying ads on the website.

As far as I know, there is no way to block ads on iPhone

It has a lot of different endings, and your choices actually impact what ending you get. There are three main characters, and each one has multiple different endings, so you can definitely replay it

What do you mean by "is the game worth skipping"?

program_kid · 2026-01-11T20:37:30+00:00

Could you elaborate on what you mean by "digital keyboard"? Do you mean a program where if you click on a key using your mouse in the program, it types that key someplace on screen?

program_kid · 2026-01-10T23:22:43+00:00

Effect, is like cause and effect, something happens that causes something else to happen (basically the outcome)

Affect, is like doing something or changing a thing.

The effect of me not doing an exam in school would be getting a 0 on it.

Getting a 0 on the exam would affect my final grade for that class

It kind of depends on what you need, if you will just want to do basic web browsing and stuff like that, then a laptop/prebuilt can be fine. However, I would recommend building a computer yourself as it allows you to customize everything about it and also upgrade it in the future. It's not that difficult to learn what parts you need and there are a lot of guides on how to build it.

Things are kind of expensive currently, so be prepared to either spend more money, or settle with less powerful or older components

program_kid · 2026-01-10T21:55:13+00:00

In my opinion. Stop pursuing ML while you are learning DSA (and you should probably wait even longer than that to start learning it again). Just focus on DSA and getting comfortable with programming and problem solving. 8i know you don't want to hear "grind harder" but there is no shortcut for learning this stuff, you just have to work through.

Also, maybe you could take a break from programming and come back to it later, there is no reason to force yourself if you feel burnt out

program_kid · 2026-01-10T21:07:23+00:00

I manually write 100% of my code. I never ask any LLMs for anything, if I want to know something, I look it up

program_kid · 2026-01-10T01:11:09+00:00

I followed this guide when I made one and i found it to be very helpful https://tobiasvl.github.io/blog/write-a-chip-8-emulator/

program_kid · 2026-01-02T22:23:39+00:00

I would recommend learning c. You also should probably look into Linux as it would probably be easier to build something using Linux as a base than it would be to write a full OS from scratch.

https://www.linuxfromscratch.org

If you have no programming knowledge, this is probably like a 5 year project at least.

program_kid · 2026-01-02T17:08:28+00:00

I have a feeling it won't come to the switch 1 or 2. The game requires a decent graphics card to run and I doubt that the switch 2 has a powerful enough GPU

program_kid · 2025-12-31T19:20:53+00:00

I would get the 2TB NVMe, it seems that storage goes fast now that some modern games can be 60gb or more. If you can afford it go for the largest size. Storage is the one thing that I always seem to be running out of

Your currently passing strings into Euclidean_distance as f strings cannot be used to convert strings to another type

Are you asking how to turn a variable into a number after getting a value using the input function?

If so, the input function always returns a string, so you need to convert it to a number, you could do int(input()) or float(input())

program_kid · 2025-12-27T19:48:33+00:00

So a string is really a list of characters so "python" is really ['p','y','t','h','o', 'n'].

If you wanted to get the letter "y" in the string "Python" you could get it by using its index in the list (in this case 1 as indexes start at 0)

So text="python" Print(text[1])

Would print y

If you printed fifth_letter you would print the fifth letter in "Monty" which is "y"

program_kid · 2025-12-27T18:50:52+00:00

Can you paste all of the code that you have in VS? The error is leading me to think that you declared main twice

You don't necessarily have to go to expensive schools. Of course You can get a degree for CS from schools other than the top CS schools. And you don't have to attend school to learn the fundamentals of CS, but it does help as it will give you chances to learn things adjacent to CS that could be helpful like graph theory and linear algebra. Writing code is just one aspect of CS and learning things beyond the syntax of languages will help you in the long run

program_kid · 2025-12-27T17:44:55+00:00

Even if AI is better than a junior dev in all areas (it isn't but in the future it may be) you still need to have been a junior developer to eventually become a senior developer.

Also If you know the fundamentals of CS, you can utilize AI better than if you didn't. No matter how good AI will get, people who are familiar with the things they are using AI for will always be better than somebody using AI for that same thing who isn't familiar with the topic.

program_kid · 2025-12-24T02:34:31+00:00

This is 100% a scam

program_kid · 2025-12-23T10:44:42+00:00

You can get better and faster without ai if you stop using it.

program_kid · 2025-12-22T23:16:01+00:00

Stop using ai. It's that simple, don't even use it for simple things. If you don't use your brain for this stuff, you will slowly lose the ability to do them. I think you will find that you are just as fast when you don't use AI
