+1 ai tools are fine if you already know what you want to write and it speeds up the process of coding. But when ai tools are writing code you don’t understand, you cannot verify that any of the code is actually correct and doesn’t introduce bugs. Ditto for copy-pasting.

xD just blocked the spammer and all his comments disappeared. Imagine working so hard to spam and it takes 2s to for someone to hide your posts.

I wouldn’t want to sully my repo with something as useful as a gitignore.

My code is so bad good, GitHub thinks I’ve uploaded an API key.

Wowow those highlights. Love how you darken the whole image to make the highlight more intense

Can someone explain to me why github apparently has bad UX/UI? I always thought the UI has gotten really good over the years.

[Edit] Like there this huge argument in these comments about the release button being all wrong. ??? No clue what people have against it. I thought it was fine? You can use it or not. People link to it if they want it more prominent. Someone explain?

[Edit 2] Also what’s up with the people who are vehemently against uploading bins to GitHub releases. This is literally what github is doing on their own repos. Not trying to say that anyone should feel obligated to release bins (CI/CD is a literal job title). People are releasing software for free because they want to. Let’s not look a gift horse in the mouth.

Idk I’m gonna stop reading this thread. its driving me crazy.

You essential have a compiler written through metaprogramming. For your implementation, did you use a find and replace or did you define and parse a grammar like a true compiler.

Oh metaprogramming! I’m doing a dissertation on this.

Nw! Today is your lucky 1 in 10,000 moment.

Thumbs are fingers and anyone who says otherwise is huffing blue paint

Never realised this was a controversial topic! xD

“I’ve used AI to make this game…”

Before artificial intelligence became a marketable buzz word, most games already included artificial intelligence (like NPCs) I guess when you have a GPT shaped hammer, everything looks like a nail.

Heya! This isnt true. You are correct that about the broad strokes but there are plenty of examples where this isn’t the case. Expert Systems are a very popular form of ai which can be made of only if else statements.

represented mainly as if–then rules rather than through conventional procedural code.

Expert systems were among the first truly successful forms of artificial intelligence (AI) software.

Really? What’s something more complicated?

Wowow stunning

Your perspective and depth are spot on! I would of thought this is traced. This is beautiful! Something about this is really speaking to me!

Me too melon. me too.

Its the mathematical term for estimation and constructing new data from existing data. In the context of what you are doing, it’s resizing images.

You are doing something called linear interpolation. This works great for shrinking an image. However, have you considered what happens when your ASCII resolution is greater than your image resolution? This is where bilinear and bicubic interpolation come in.

These algorithms are cool but are also massive overkill for your average use case. They only make a different in a very niche use case (when your ASCII resolution is greater than your image, such as pixelart)

Great code! Very cool
