That exactly is the reason why I usually don’t use any AI Tools, because in most (at least for me) cases its faster to just do it by hand.

No way am I going to trist AI on rewriting that. The entire underlying structure is so bad that feeding that into an AI model and tasking it with making a decent code structure out of it will very probably not work the way I want it to. AI is a tool that excels at small isolated tasks, but under no circumstance do I allow it to create the outline of my project.

The problem is, that there is no management. I’m working on a small team of 4 people and I am the only person that knows now to code. The rest just asks Claude and doesnt bother as long as it works.

Im also an advocate of moving the project to an RTOS, which would mean a complete rewrite, but for now they are still quite eager at fighting that.

For now I will just do the minimum required work to maintain this mess and rewrite everything from scratch in the meantime, because we will have to do it anyway at some point.

I will definitely talk to them about some minimum coding standards.

You can emit the -m flag and a Texteditor will pop up, so that you can write multi-line commit messages.

I would say the bigger inconveniences lies within being able to play the big PVP games. Linux not running LoL is a win for everyone.

I would say that building a container for developments becomes worth it once your project reaches a certain scale and has lots of environment variables/input or when you want to produce reproducible builds. For smaller projects or projects that have a relatively low threat level it may not be feasible to create a virtual environment.

Damn, 150k for a submarine is quite cheap.

FYI the ?si=......part of the Link only serves the purpose of tracking who clicked the link. Its a good practise to take them out so that other people can not be connected to you.

Other platforms have similar functionalities, but they might use a different “identifier” instead of ?si

which would be the second time Pepsi had a military navy - i am totally for that happening again!

What the hell? You got some more info on that (im curious)

The reason I dislike the missing of semicolons and brackets is because it causes bugs (that’s more of a problem of missing braces to declare the scope of your code) and also takes away control from the programmer.

Missing braces:
I had more than one instance where I accidentally deleted the intendation in a python script that caused undefined behaviour in my code and it took quite a lot of time to track that down. If the programming language would have forced me to properly defined the scope of my code by introducing brackets, that bug would have never been possible.

Semicolons:
The main thing I like about semicolons is that it allows you to properly space out your code over multiple lines for visual clarity. E.g.:

void my_function(int arg1, int arg2, int arg3){
  //some code
}

int main(){
  my_function(
    1, //arg1
    3, //arg2
    8 //arg3
  );
}

Python should allow this too, since the arguments are being defined inside brackets, but other languages have no similar functionality (e.g. shell, but that is a little bit unfair, since you can’t even specify arguments) forcing you to put everything into a single line.

Rust even allows you to leave out the semicolon on the last statement of a code scope in order to return the result of the statement:

fn main() {
    let condition = true;
    let number = if condition { 5 } else { 6 }; 
    //number turns into 5, since the value is being returned due to the missing semicolon.

    println!("The value of number is: {number}");

    let number = if condition { 5; } else { 6; }
    // this should return null (if it even compiles)
}

Yeah I know, but I have no clue about that kind of stuff, simply because I hate that language so god damn much so that I never cared enough to actually learn it a single inch more than it was needed, so that I could copy paste code from StackOverflow into my Emacs config.

Okay, it may use not that much more brackets, but I really dislike the places where you have to use them and it gets even worse simply because it does only use regular brackets. Why the fuck are function declaration and definition part of the same bracket? Why is its the same for conditions?

Hear me out, but whatever lunatics at python decided that brackets and semicolons are unnecessary, have made a catastrophic mistake with it. I start using another editor that uses different amount of spaces for tabs and suddenly my code no longer runs. Its also absolutely horrible when you chase down a bug for an hour just to realise, that one additional/missing tab changed the scope of your code and broke your entire script.

I fucking hatte Lisp for its excessive use of brackets. Fuck the Person who thought that you only need one type of bracket and then have shove absolutely fucking everything into it.

Only logical response to kids demanding proper education is to beat the living shit out of them. How dare they to question Authority Like that. /s

XP in ASCII is [0x58, 0x50] and Vista is [0x56, 0x69 0x73, 0x74, 0x61]. If we add all of them together we get 168 (0xB2 for XP and 519 (0x207) for Vista

Saying that performance doesnt matter anymore is what brought us AAA games running at 20fps on the most powerfull Consumer Hardware available at the time (yes, Im talling about you Jedi Survivor)

We shouldn’t ask ourselfs why we should do something, but if we could do something.

Of course. What do you think vim users do?
