I’d think that would be obvious. Everything is a program on a computer.
Wikipedia:
A computer program is a sequence or set[a] of instructions in a programming language for a computer to execute.

- Comment on Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding 2 weeks ago:
You could vary the genres you play more. I love Ball x Pit, but I don’t play a lot of rouge-likes, so I’m not desensitized to the mechanics as much.

Lol, didn’t Red say the last Terraria update was gonna be 1.2 or something? It’s funny and awesome that updates are still coming out. Haven’t played in years, I’ll need to check it out.

That’s unfortunate. Can’t say I’m surprised. Google is garbage.

- Comment on The productivity paradox of AI coding assistants 4 weeks ago:
You’re right, I apologize, it’s really 3 lines of code. It’s just repeated for each monitor/action (brighten/dimming) being performed. The script file it technically 47 lines because I have 3 monitors and 10 different shortcuts.
Here’s the first action for the first monitor. Just edit the name and the brightness amount and voilà. The comment inline code formatting might put it on one line.
^!+PgUp:: Run, D:\Programs\ControlMyMonitor\ControlMyMonitor.exe /ChangeValue “MSI G274QPF” 10 20 return - Comment on The productivity paradox of AI coding assistants 4 weeks ago:
You’re dictating to and micromanaging an algorithm. Cringe individuals would refer to themselves as “Prompt Engineers” or something like that.
Instead of actually writing the code and understanding what each function actually does, you’re basically just skimming whatever the output is. You’re not gaining experience in programming by doing that and you may not be aware of what exactly everything does. Could be harmless until something unexpected starts causing issues.
For your specific case, an LLM seems completely overkill. I’ve also setup my desktop monitors to change brightness via a couple keyboard shortcuts using ControlMyMonitor and AutoHotkey. It’s like 10 lines of code.

Saving this for later. Thank you!
- Comment on The productivity paradox of AI coding assistants 4 weeks ago:
There is no paradox. vibe coding = not writing code = not being a programmer.

That works as long as you have the cookies for it; it won’t work in private browsing. Using OP’s method works in private browsing, too.
Both are good.

- Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support 2 months ago:
Lol, I was gonna say that. I’m the wrong demographic for the affected games, apparently.
Regardless, if Valve can work out a way for these games to be playable on Linux, I’m all for it.
- Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support 2 months ago:
I don’t disagree, but the only a suff that comes to mind is COD or some other EA shovelware.
Ultimately, if it gets more people on Linux, it’s a net positive.
