If you code with AI I have 0 respect for you

I write code myself but I use AI for documentation, how much respect do I get?

I don't code for work, just as a hobby. I can understand wagies using AI for work.
But coding as a hobby is extremely satisfying, I first started with rpg maker without touching a line of code, then moved on to gamemaker, doing some scripts here and there, then learned python with pygame, I could transfer some of the knowledge from gm, it's cool to build by myself all the structure gm was doing for me before, and each new project you carry a bit from the last one, your code and your style of doing things becomes more sophisticated. Now I'm using C with raylib, most of my knowledge from python carried over, but now I'm making some functions python did for me, and it's been very fun understanding how everything works. I can't imagine ruining the fun by asking an AI to spit out code for you, feels the same as playing a puzzle game and looking up the answer. Sure, you can skip straight to the most complicated stuff, but you're not improving, you're just watching something do the work for you, you don't feel the magic of knowing how everything works, it's just a black box that does the thing you asked.
Eventually I want to make a nes or gameboy ROM with assembly.

Coding for hobby is the only thing that make it worth it and the only path to achieve true enlightening.

1. It's not AI, it's LLMs.
2. Compilers are deterministic in their output, LLMs are not.
3. Compilers suck fucking ass.

Rather seeing codeChads turning into high wizards of knowhow while the rest of humanity gets jeeter and stupider.

>But coding as a hobby is extremely satisfying
What is a good hobby project for coding? I code for work which is okay but I need something outside of work just to keep busy and sharpen my skills. I mostly do webdev shit but wouldnt mind learning a new language or stack if the project was interesting. Even if I never touched that stack again.

use the sloppiest AI output as long as it good enough to not get me fired

If you don't code in ASM and don't know what a VFMADD231PS is I have 0 respect for you
if you're going to be a gatekeeper at least go full retard on it, ai has its use, i'm not gonna ctrl+c ctrl+v 1000+ lines that all need some type of processing when local llm can do it for me for "free"

that is because you are still "young" and curious. once you have really understand how programming works, then you will know exactly what kind of code you need to write whenever you need a feature to be completed. that is very boring to type out. it's like typing essays; you already know what the contents of the paper will be and you are just transcribing it from your brain onto the paper. i would rather have the machine write down most of it so i can sooner start using those tools that i wanted to be programmed

I must've been just unlucky to never see code from people who really understand how programming works, then. Or hardware, for that matter.

i think the big thing you need is to understand your compiler or interpreter outputs. you can prove your understanding of programming if you can fix every error that gets reported without just copy pasting it into google to see what it means. if you immediately know how to fix your mistakes, then i would say it's true that you would already know exactly how your code is supposed to be written in the first place. that means it it would not be a big detriment to take a shortcut for it

Not only is that a ridiculously low bar, but it also perfectly explains why our current infrastructure is fucked beyond repair and needs a complete teardown.
If shit likefor(i = 0;i < 50;i++)
fd[i] = open(fn[i],O_RDONLY);
doesn't repulse you, I'm sorry, but you have still so much to learn.
>>
>>108054264
if you are working on something important then sure you should be more involved with it. i just don't see a problem in someone who is experienced to automate high level code for something quick like plugging your function into the AI and asking it to refactor it in the way that you intend it to be designed rather than wasting your time typing it out
>>
>>108054335
>ask AI to "refactor this snippet"
>suggests error handling, feedback, magic numbers, scoping, resource management
>not a *single word* about mode switches and thread blocks because the AI is trained on existing code
>have to explicitly mention them
Now let's be honest: how many developers even know what a mode switch is? Or why threads block?
>>
>>108054384
>>have to explicitly mention them
i do not tell it to design my refactored code, i only commission it with the specifications i am thinking of. if there is some kind of technique as you mention that i would not know about, then i would not want the AI to use it either way because that is how you lose your grasp on how your program is written

int i;
int oddNums[100];
for (i=0; i<100; i++) {
oddNums[i] = 0;
};
for (i=1; i<100; i++) {
if (i % 2 != 0) {
oddNums[i] = i;
}
};
for (i=0; i<100; i++) {
if (oddNums[i] != 0) {
printf("%d", oddNums[i]);
}
};
How'd I do /g/

Ok sorry
I don't post very often.
Working on a project in C as a hobby / lottery ticket to escape wage slavery.
I shouldn't even be posting.
I'll go back to coding shitty stuff in private again.
Thanks for reminding me to use code tags next time.

I sometimes have to sit with job interviews. And I unironically sometimes recommend people if they have a fun hobby. Because that makes them different from other candidates with no identity. Sitting at the other side of the table really changed my look on how people get jobs.

Meanwhile, I have programs that I like that I wouldn’t have been able to make myself

Something you want to exist
If you can’t think of anything, wait until you have a problem that can be solved with code
