@philthistweet The biggest advantage is that you only need to learn one programming language, if you're a full stack developer. Not a big advantage, but it can make life easier early on.

Uncomfortable truth: LLMs already write better code than many mediocre developers. Agree? 🤔

I just learned that this style of OO programming is still taught in 2026 that's 200k views, 2months ago, "Rebuilding Pokemon with Object Oriented Programming"

@Beno10_MFC Moving one stick in 2 to the right gets you 903, which is already more than 902. Moving the top vertical stick to the left results in 905.

High level of creativity is needed here. Boost your creativity Can you make a number larger than 902 by moving only 2 sticks?

@Jbm_dev My wife sells via WhatsApp, and needed a simple tool to record and track sales on-the-go. All existing solutions were for sales teams and big corporations (probably because that's where the money is).

I've found AI more useful to learn about APIs/frameworks that I'm not familiar with, and also as a sounding board for design decisions. It's good at writing code for commonly solved problems (for which there's a lot of public example code). But, I have to review all code written, and keep repeating the same instructions on how the code should be written over and over. It's like having a forgetful assistant. Makes me feel like a micro-manager...

I swear do you guys just all write simple applications or something? Because AI is failing me. It absolutely sucks at distributed state management. I have gotten into this complete mess and now I have got to manually clean it up.

@ThePrimeagen I find that I have to keep on giving the same instructions over and over on how things should be written, even when it's "committed it to memory."

I got asked why I decided to write a sales tracker app for people like my wife who sell via WhatsApp. Why not just buy an existing product? This is why...

@yadavji_codes I doubt that you can boot to a full modern Linux desktop. However, some CPUs have a cache-as-RAM feature where you can run a minimal kernel using just the L2/L3 cache and zero RAM. Older OSes used to run with less RAM than we have cache now, so it's theoretically possible...

Saw a guy boot Linux “without RAM”. Not saying I fully believe it… but if it’s real, Windows users gotta respond somehow !!!!

@moshhamedani yes and the weird part is more choice just makes you enjoy things less because you're always wondering if something else would have been better

Does anyone else feel overwhelmed by the amount of content around us these days? No matter what app you use (watch a movie, play music, play a game, etc), there are a trillion options to choose from. It’s exhausting!

@raysan5 Nice that it was fixed. Perhaps a GitHub action could be used to test the CMake build automatically. That way it'll be caught much sooner, should it break again...

⚠️ WARNING: It seems CMake build system for #raylib generates a broken library on latest raylib 6.0. I don't maintain/use the CMake build system, it seems it has been broken for a copule of months but nobody noticed... 😔 A patched raylib 6.1 will be released as soon as possible but at this moment raylib is going through a private security audit and I prefer to wait for it to finish and fix potential security concerns for new release I put a lot of work on every release and it's really sad to see this happen... sorry for any potential inconvenience... you can use master branch in the meantime (it should be already fixed in there)

I said "draft documentation," because I then rewrite it in plain English and reorganize the flow of ideas so that it's easy to understand. I can usually get AI part-way there by giving more detailed instructions (which I have to repeat every time). But manual edits are always necessary.

When I ask an AI coding assistant to write draft documentation, it writes rather heavy techno-babble. Question: who's documentation were the AI chatbots trained on that they generate such techno-babble? Documentation's primary purpose is to communicate clearly, NOT to impress with big words and jargon (which doesn't work, BTW).

@CWood_sdf Yep. And programming languages are much more precise at specifying things clearly than natural languages like English.

i love how people are saying "if we write a sufficiently detailed specification, the agent can write all our code" do you know what writing a sufficiently detailed specification that deterministically maps to what a computer's actions is? it's coding
