- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 1 week ago:
But like, I do like coding, I just have an incredibly hard time thinking in any language other than English because my brain is essentially defective.
Writing code entirely manually inevitably ends with me incredibly frustrated for hours because despite thinking I’ve done something correctly, and even knowing ‘no, I know this is how it’s supposed to work so why isn’t it?’ All because I’ve made a couple of typographical errors that I’m too stupid to parse out from a debugger.
And because I don’t have any friends with even a passing interest I don’t have anyone to turn to for advice there. Nor do I work in the field or went to school for it. My only human options are on the internet but replies often take hours and you have to sift through nine people calling you stupid before finding someone being nice let alone actually helping.

Thank you
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 1 week ago:
thanks for the thoughtful reply. I’m in the first boat of just wanting to make games and other small, self driven projects. I think its mostly the feeling of being excluded from participating in things like game jams and the larger game development community because I use a specific tool.
In an effort to clarify what i think is an example of something like a middle ground between no AI code gen period and as you put it “do the thinking for me” let me see if i can put it in similar terms. Instead of “do it for me” its very much so a back and forth of “i want this behavior when these conditions are met for this function and expect these types of outcomes.” Copilot then generates code referencing the rest of the codebase as reference and i then usually manually copy and paste chunks over to the working files and then compile & run from there for testing.
I definitely agree that over reliance on tools as a means of masking a real understanding of a subject is a genuine problem. And I too hope it doesnt end up having the same kind of effect algorithmic social media has had on society as a whole. But i think i do have hope that it will enable a subset of people like me who struggle with the wrote memorization aspects of computer programming but still desires the thrill of putting some pieces together and watching it work.

I know you’re replying to a reply here, but do people think I mean just putting in a prompt and then running the output and calling that something I made?
I’ve spent years trying to teach myself how to code but always inevitably would lose track of some part or get stuck on some bug or issue I alone couldn’t get past. I went to theatre school for chrissakes and I just wanna make games and silly little projects. I don’t have any friends in this field and pestering random people in discords or on stack overflow can be really annoying for those people.
So why is using an ai assistant I can berate with as many terse questions I want to iterate code that’d I’d normally spend hours struggling just to remember and string together, such a big stick people are putting up their butts?

If you learned math with a calculator you didn’t learn math.
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 1 week ago:
This feels discouraging as someone who struggled with learning programming for a very long time and only with the aid of copilot have I finally crossed the hurdles I was facing and felt like I was actually learning and progressing again.
Yes I’m still interacting with and manually adjusting and even writing sections of code. But a lot of what copilot does for me is interpret my natural language understanding of how I want to manipulate the data and translating it into actual code which I then work with and combine with the rest of the project.
But I’ve stopped looking to join any game jams because it seems even when they don’t have an explicit ban against all AI, the sentiment I get is that people feel like it’s cheating and look down on someone in my situation. I get that submitting ai slop whole sale is just garbage. But it feels like putting these blanket ‘no ai content’ stamps and badges on things excludes a lot of people.

- Comment on JetKVM's Source Code is now public! ✨ 2 months ago:
Sorry if this question is easily answerable by reading and I’m just missing it. But I genuinely don’t really understand what this product does or what its use case is. Is it a usb stick that gives you kvm access to a computer from a remote location? Like call up someone in another building ‘hey plug the jet into tower X so I can remote in?’ In which case how is this better/worse/just different from a software solution like Barrier? Sorry if I’m being borderline deliberately obtuse but the website gives no info on the home page at all.

It’s honestly not that far from a tuna melt if you think about it.

BlueBrixx is a German company making “Lego compatible” brick toy sets. Looks like they aim for more adult oriented sets hence the Star Trek and Star gate licenses. They also seem to produce military sets which Lego usually avoids.

- Comment on Developers keep Spotify Car Thing alive with custom firmware 3 months ago:
Inflated from the novelty of its EoL. May go down once the press dies down but with them not making more that wont last long probably. But anyone with the ability to set this thing up with custom firmware probably has the smarts to build something close enough for much cheaper.

Nebula is a streaming service created by creators as an alternative to YouTube and is absolutely worth supporting. We’re not just talking about products here, we’re talking about the creators that make those products viable.
- Comment on Ads 3 months ago:
So the alternative is to manage a subscription for every single creator I watch? Currently I sub to Nebula and YT premium. For ~$20 a month. If I were to go through and sub to every creator I watch’s lowest patreon tier, we’d be talking about dozens of individual subs totaling probably more than double what I pay now.
I’m not arguing against ad blockers but seriously, what do you think is going to happen if everyone uses an ad blocker and doesn’t pay for a service? You get Google pushing Manifest V3 as fast as they can. You get the huge arms race with the biggest tech firms doing everything they can to eliminate any and all kinds of ad blocking.
It’s not about the amount of money you individually generate for a creator. It’s about the net effect of everyone running adblockers.
I get the vast majority of people don’t use ad blockers. But just wow does it feel like people dont spend more than three seconds thinking about anything.
- Comment on Ads 3 months ago:
So your suggestion is to manage 15 subscriptions instead of one? Not every creator has a patreon or means of direct support. Not to mention some of these creators only upload once a year. And what happens when I want to watch someone new? Do I have to drop another creator to give this new person money
If you’re watching youtube and signed into an account you said goodbye to that level of privacy so long ago that an ad blocker isn’t going to do much.
- Comment on Ads 3 months ago:
And you have the agency and ability to either pay for the service or investigate other means of avoiding them. Complaining about them is just annoying.
- Comment on Ads 3 months ago:
Or suck it up and pay for the service instead of actively depriving the creators you claim to support of revenue.
