Thinking that "avoid pre optimization" works well when followed by "avoid generalization"

A great reason to write your own thing is that libs usually need to cover a big surface of use cases.

Just writing the couple of features you need is likely to be more performant by default.

Repeat yourself. Like daily. Don’t copy paste. You’ll discover how to improve stuff just by the mere act of repetition.

Working in my own IMGUI lib for my game cause when you only need to cover like a 5% of use cases, they suddenly aren’t that hard to make

Any tips for reducing tokens in replicube? I literally have no idea what else I can do and I'm 2 tokens above!

seeing someone using genAI art has the same effect on me as seeing someone wearing a MAGA cap, just full-body reeling away in disgust. they don't need to say a word, their values and soul have been made plain to me.

If only the output of LLMs wasn't plain Sh#t I wouldn't complain as much as I do. But bar is on the floor 🫥

As a game dev, I am a pendulum that swings between weeks of crazy productivity and then months of being a lazy dumb ass

Just a reminder that Github copilot's creator just got a pat in the back and a 20K bonus from his multi million dollar work

To put it it numbers, just copilot alone increased by 40% the 2024 revenue for Github (Which was around 2 Billion dollars).

20K is around the 0.0025% of that 40% increase.

Never expected to say that.

Sometimes is fine to step back on things. Maybe we shouldn’t be 10x as productive. Maybe we should produce/consume less.

I know is from boomers say that things were better in the past. But you won’t let me lie. Before, things were made with purpose of lasting longer. They were expensive, but you rarely had to change it. And if it broke, you could repair it. Now everything is cheap. Maximize profits. Sell often.

I do enjoy programming. The closest I can explain it is how I enjoy cooking at home as well. There’s something therapeutic in preparing the ingredients/variables. Putting things to the oven/compiling. I’m sad about new devs who will get robbed the opportunity to enjoy it because LLMs
