Writing code without an LLM is akin to cooking a meal yourself, as opposed to something in between hiring a private chef and pulling a slot machine lever. When I cook a meal for my…

Specifically, AI loves to separate headers with //

May I ask, is the hypermobility disorder you refer to EDS? If so, what was the injury?

RuneScape private servers used to bring in tons of money. I helped manage one when I was in my early teens, and I can confirm the owner (who was only a few years older than I) was …
