I loved both of these games as a kid.

lol, I love that you're conflating the creator having the budget to make the show more in-line with his original vision with someone else making a lousy change for no clear reason. It's a nice knee-slapper of a comment you have right there. Good luck with it.

AI is surprisingly helpful with providing a starting point. When you want a helloworld app, an example of how to use some part of a crate, or a code snippet showing how to take what you have and do something unusual with it, AI is super useful.

I would love to be able to get the same quality of AI locally as I do from ChatGPT. If that's possible, please let me know. I've got two 3090s ready to go.

But for now, I'm just enjoying the fact that ChatGPT is free. Once they put up a pay wall, it's back to suffering (or maybe/probably trying out some open-source models).

Everyone wore black.

I've never had chocolate on my fries. What's a good comparison? What can I compare the taste to?

It's still useful when it's wrong because it can give you the jist of what should be done. If it uses a library or function that doesn't exist, you'll still be informed as to what it was intending for the process at that point. I've often gone and just replaced the made-up code with custom code that does the same thing.

Every so often rust-analyzer in VS Code doesn't use the latest code after a cargo update and the only way I've found to fix it is a cargo clean. This means that I have to wait 5 minutes for the next build, painful. Just because of one project update. I would LOVE a faster build.

Extra info: the updates come from my dependencies that utilize my private repositories via a git = "[path]". The rust-analyzer is pulling from a cache or older version for some reason and I don't know where it is or why.

I would agree. Only if the performance is extremely similar but the readability (for some reason) is significantly better for the recursive solution would I choose that.

Rust, easily.

My current favorite is mostly Rust-based with the tide crate, tide-jsx crate, vanilla JS, postgres crate, and Postgres in Docker. Super easy, super fast (to develop and run), but I haven't made any large web projects with this stack yet, just small stuff.

When I see a RIGHT JOIN I just shake my head and wonder "Why?". That said, I can't remember the last time I saw one.

I like the trait generation functionality. This will be useful for expanding prototypes.
