it’s basically all the same shit stated in slightly different ways. and it’s not like you even have to remember the rules anymore, just load cursor, start writing a file in a language you don’t know, write good comments and long, descriptive function names and let the robot fill the rest in
If you’re writing comments, or a prompt long and detailed enough to explain to an AI exactly what you want, you’re better off just writing the thing yourself.
thank you for telling me you don’t know how to prompt an LLM. those prompts are WAY too vague and are guaranteed to get you garbage code. no wonder so many people hate LLMs, they don’t use them so they don’t know there’s actually a proper way to use them
I use AI as a scaffold because I’m an amateur with basically no experience working with anyone, but I’ve been serious about coding since 2017, aka 5 years before anyone knew ChatGPT existed. First compsci class I took was 20 years ago.

The logic remains the same. All I need to learn is the syntax and I’m good, and learning the syntax is easy by just using the language.
This guy codes. Where are you based, mate?

which is easier
convertMovToWebm() { #figure it out yourself }or
convertMovToWebm() { #just hit tab }File conversion is a solved problem. You fundamentally misunderstand your tools.
Try this instead: ‘hey chat, write tetris, or the portal engine for me. Better yet, write a new game that mixes portals with falling bricks’.

Thank you for telling me you don’t know how to code. I was wondering what the point of your post was.
