After suppressing a laugh: "I deplore this kind of language."

Well I built the system by hand originally ( bsky.app/profile/bill... ) but it can understand it after chewing on it in "extended thinking" mode. If you tell it to go web search the RenPy docs and forums it can probably solve trickier RenPy problems.

(I'm not an "AI bro" but have been using it for coding because it's hard to resist. It's finally good, and you go faster)

I actually built a completely bespoke RenPy-like system and it can both extend my system and understand my story syntax. You can upload a zip and tell GPT to analyze a codebase

When I noticed the blank opcode in my debug view I tasked GPT with analyzing the source of the bug. It returned an answer in 2m 15s but in that time I had already found the source manually and knew the correct fix. Still got it 😎

.....or I'll get less stupid and just watch the VOD that's still up on Twitch right now www.twitch.tv/videos/26390...

Did Betus show up for the disappointment? I'll be watching closely for the VOD on YT either way

They had a word with her telling her to remove it and she refused (because she's not doing anything wrong and it's protected by 1A). Literally just because she calmly stood up to them and hurt their fragile egos alabamareflector.com/2025/10/20/f...

In English the new slang for this is "vibe coding" karpathy.bearblog.dev/vibe-coding-.... Not too sure if "バイブコーディング" will catch on the same way though 😆

A lot of experienced programmers have been naysaying about it, but I dabbled with making an Anki-alternative webapp that fit my very specific wants, and found I can get there SO much faster being able to use my knowledge to hold the AI's hand and say "use API X not Y to implement feature Z" etc

It's cool but scary (as a programmer) what AI lets people who can't code do. At some point writing code as a discipline will probably just disappear....I only hope I can get rich before I'm made obsolete like that 😏

(I've given in and have been using it too, guiding it with my expert knowlede)

Partly JavaScript's fault for not having sprintf tbh

Gonna go to the grocery store and yell at these chocolates to fill them with other frequencies (I already do this)

It's somewhere on my Goodreads to-read list. Maybe I'll read it to be annoying.

Okay but what if I recently slogged through Brief Interviews With Hideous Men and now I kind of sympathize with the women who wrote all the dudes-stop-recommending-DFW-to-me think pieces?

It tries to second-guess what I "actually mean" just like Google does, almost certainly using machine learning

In other words, it also sucks

Trying to "know what you want" rather than going off keywords and inlinks.

It's interesting how coincidental it is that the stories that people have always dovetail exactly with their beliefs

I've gone out of my way in the past to post obscure solutions nobody will read to obscure problems I solved myself just to counter this
