  • How Ruby Went Off the Rails

    Jump

  • As someone who dislikes Python, I can't say I agree. So, I will use Python, but I only use it for 3 lines of code snips to test before making codes on other languages.

  • If AI is so good at coding - where are the open source contributions?

    Jump

  • I used it only as last resort. I verify it before using it. I only had used it for like .11% of my project. I would not recommend AI.

  • If AI is so good at coding - where are the open source contributions?

    Jump

  • I'll admit I did used AI for code before, but here's the thing. I already coded for years, and I usually try everything before last resort things. And I find that approach works well. I rarely needed to go to the AI route. I used it like for .11% of my coding work, and I verified it through stress testing.

  • The Innocent Loop

    Jump

  • I never had a issue with loops. If I feel something is off, I terminate, check code, and fix it.

  • Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()

    Jump

  • This. I rarely boot up Python for the tasks I need to do, and if they are, they are one of the following:

    • Assistant code for other coding language
    • Throwaway script
    • Prototype before using a faster language

  • AI: a fork in the road for open source

    Jump

  • I just write in a language few people really knows well. Not like I expect AI to do a great job of basing off my code.

  • Vibe Coding is not an excuse for low-quality work

    Jump

  • I only used LLM-generated code once. I tested and made modifications to see if it was I want. It worked out.

  • In G'MIC, there's repeat(num_of_iters,_var_name,code();); on JIT code, and repeat code_block done outside of JIT. It has while, for, dowhile on JIT too. Other than repeat, there is only do while, and for which is while outside of JIT.

    Note: _var_name, can be omitted. So, if you need to just repeat a code N times, that can be removed.

  • Efficiency

    Jump

  • Eh, I rather write code by hand no matter how long it takes.

  • i use edit.com, notepad and geany btw

    Jump

  • I use KDE Kate for my coding. Scripting more accurately to some users, but I don't find a meaningful distinction.

  • Python in Visual Studio Code - April 2025 Release

    Jump

  • Pass. I rather use PyCharm for Python development.

  • Recursion

    Jump

  • Yeah. repeat() is unique to a few language. I think just Scala, and G'MIC has it. I use the second one. It's more convenient than say for(p=0,p<5,++p,);. Sometimes, repeat(5,); suffice.

  • Recursion

    Jump

  • I actually use repeat(iterations,index_name(optionall),);. No need for i++ or ++i for loop in many cases.

  • Recursion

    Jump

  • I had this problem only once. Luckily, I do not need recursion. I know my way using iterative process.

  • Rivulet (2D esoteric lanugage)

    Jump

  • Ok, I kind of like this.

  • Breaking News

    Jump

  • Not what I'm saying. Just saying if I need speed, I'd use a naturally faster language.

  • Breaking News

    Jump

  • Numpy is good for that. But, I gravitate toward naturally faster langs where I don't need to import a library for speed. I use Python for simple, dumb scripts.

  • Any opinions on "vibe coding"?

    Jump

  • Nah. I only used AI as a last resort, and in my case, it has worked out. I cannot see myself using AI for codes again.

  • FuncSug: to make GUI (and so game) programming easier

    Jump

  • I don't understand the code, but it's good to see you doing things.

    Is there a better algorithm for converting big binaries into decimal?

    Is there a text editor that would allow me to create syntax highlighting easily?
