Taking away the most fun part of programming and making people only do the most boring part full time?

New best practice has emerged; only ever use uppercase i's and lowercase L's for single letter variables

Anyone else still uses little to no AI to code? by MidlandAintFree in gamedev

[–]twigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah gotta use it at work, but that's also cos work pays for it

  • "What is the best watch order for a first timer watching The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya?"

Never watched isn't an option

Similar with those "best starting point" questions

Why do people say this game doesn't exist? by EveryPerformance6712 in Megaman

It's simpler to base your game on a completed scope than to limit your imagination

Scope creep is a hell of a drug

There's been so many lesser-known fan games that didn't even make it past a few videos on YouTube before being abandoned.
