    Oh, this is cute and a great first game! I'm working on my first game as well (a top-down 2D tower defense game). What engine or framework did you end up going with? I looked into …

    Oh yeah, I did a deep-dive into neural networks (both artificial and human) for vision processing, it's super dope stuff. The human vision processing system is remarkably similar t…

    TBH this alone is worth $20 (but don't tell OpenAI that).

    Huh! Well, I stand corrected. I've never seen that done (but I've only worked at startups with < 20 headcount for my entire software career so far, so that might be why).

    Sure, it's been done before, and I'm sure not just limited to SGI, but no one does this for regular apps these days - never heard of it before. I just find it neat that Codex came …

    Codex's precision and attention to detail is *crazy* when set up correctly

    Lately I've been working on a Tower Defense game with Codex, in part to learn how game development works and in part to see how far I can get using just Codex, no manual coding at …

    What are you talking about? They didn't train a model for this. That's why it's so impressive.
