    IMO not significantly. Prior to AI the bulk were tutorial based to-do apps or simple crud things anyway, its still easy to tell the difference between those and something more comp…

    I did provide a warning of my nonsense. As you say though 10-30kb per image, in a 350+ page text book is already likely 7mb+ (assuming 1+ images pp). And that is absolute best case…

    What problem are you trying to solve here? Code being open doesn't mean anything unless you can verify the code running on a machine at the time of voting (adding another layer of …

    Most methods are poor. PRs and commits can easily be gamed and generally the best developers are the ones with succinct small changes that deliver high value. Two ways I have found…

    Voxels/SpriteStacking/3dModelling is more of the how, they can all produce great looking 2d renderings. I imagine the difference is more based around how the creator wants to creat…
