    Not hacking related but gaming instead:

    There is no fucking way i am ever going to type out 1000 lines of basically the exact same text with one variable swapped each time ever again now that a better tool is available. That was when i was handling save/load and had to note each variable to be saved. Now i can just throw my classes into an ai and tell it to write the 1000 lines of code for me. I learn absolutely nothing, 0, from typing the same thing over and over again.

    To be clear, id never use the AI to write any functional code, its just removing the tedium.

      If you need to type out 1000 lines of basically the exact same text with one variable swapped each time, you have a lot of software dev learning to do.

        Yeah, ive discussed this before and while there are other ways i could go about it, its been made evident that i would have to use a third party library or learn a different language to improve upon that method. Evidently the 1000 lines of code is literally the best way to do it natively with the language i use
