| ▲ | cmrdporcupine a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | yes maybe, but also will feel completely pointless after. like a soulless one-night stand :-) could as easily run it in an emulator | | |

For others it's an art form that gives them a sense of worth, using their knowledge and experience to do something special that not just anyone can do. Neither is right or wrong; people just have different goals. | | |
| ▲ | RajT88 a day ago | parent | next [-] | | I am not a great programmer, and I certainly do not have the attention span to complete a big personal project. But I can describe well to Claude the architecture I want, the look and feel of the UI and how it all should work. I have things running in my homelab which are awesome and amazing and useful and one of a kind. It is a great feeling. | |
| ▲ | cmrdporcupine a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | don't get me wrong. i've always just built for the sake of it and nerd out. and now I just... do more of it, with AI. i'm not opposed. e.g. https://github.com/rdaum/rekursiv/ done on a whim based on a book i've had on the shelf for 25 years it's just insane what you can get done these days. i just think with this thing in particular, it being in x86 assembly means you're not really "porting" but rewriting. and then why that and not something else? :) | | |
| ▲ | andsoitis a day ago | parent [-] | | but imagine using AI to port it quickly, and then using AI to expand the feature set, refine elements, etc. That would be very satisfying to me, for example. |
