Why not just send this as an email rather than poisoning the whole thread and dissuading people from being interested/looking more? It's not a very nice thing to do. I bet there's probably a bunch of things that are worth looking at. Focus on that to get other people seeing the obvious talent of this person who is asking for help. You're the one who good do better here.

>rather than poisoning the whole thread and dissuading people from being interested/looking more? I partially disagree, offering public advice on how to improve can start a conversation, get the aspects fixed, and give an opportunity for op to show his abilities and come out on top. Other people can also chime in or in my case, appreciate general advice and learn from it. What dissuades me more is another poster in t…

If you treat a person's livelihood like an academic code review in public, that's not a great way to start a conversation, it just attaches negative keywords to their job application. That ain't mentoring: it's sabotage.

First, congrats on getting healthy! Secondly, since you're presenting this as a portfolio entry, I have some open, honest feedback. I quickly reviewed the repository and there are some pretty major orange-red flags that would dissuade employers from reaching out. Some of them include: - Lack of coherent repository structure. All files under src/ with no sense of modularity - The commit messages are very poor. Message…

It's AI slop and he's posted it here entirely as a shilling method to get a job

Ya I predicted it will go on the front page and everybody will like it. Aside from that, getting to this point required hundreds of *correct* design decisions that require skill. The AI isn't going to produce this on its own. Go ahead and try.

Thanks! Your points are fair. I work very differently solo than when I am in a team, I can produce very detailed, fine-grained and scoped commits/PRs and I do so when I am in that situation. Doing it while I am working on a solo prototype would simply slow me down and my concern at that point is velocity, not code quality. This repo specifically has been vibe-coded in its entirety. The LLM put those magic numbers the…

Yah ignore this guy. This app is awesome and how I develop side projects is vastly different than boring corporate shit. Party on brother

There's a huge variety of electronic music styles. I'd really recommend trying some without the substances. Maybe the extremes are your thing? Or the highly melodic euphoric ones? Or dark stuff? Etc.. The nice thing if you find something is that it's also sustainable - as in: can do this for the rest of your life - which at least for me is definitely not the case with mdma.

Well, I'm a lifelong Metal fan. I like, for example, Goa Trance well enough, but I don't think I'll ever be able to enjoy just listening to EDM for pleasure the way I can with say, Technical Death Metal.

I get that completely. I hardly ever just listen to any EDM. Technical death metal on the other hand I probably enjoy more listening to at home than going to shows because often the sound quality at shows is just never as good.

But I was talking about partying: there's a fair share of EDM I can party to without any drugs. Goa trance is the main one btw. And I still get the feeling of connection with the rest of the crowd.

Trees are dying because of this game. The epa should go after these folks for all their money.

Isn't that true of all games, and even for comments on this website? Sorry if I am just missing the sarcasm.

Yes, sarcasm was strong

Are you the kind of guy that says that all things that serve no purpose except for entertainment should be banned? I am of the opposite school. I think practical things are fine and dandy, but the things that make us human, make life worth living, are all "useless".

No.
