Ironic that your asm game engine runs at 60fps while your blog has a loading bar and lags when scrolling. I didn't bother reading it.

Yeah... I don't get the point of that. By checking devtools, I see that everything has already loaded.

Another thing: I question the claim that he wrote assembly himself because the GitHub repo screams AI.

Especially this MD file. No human documents stuff in that way. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ujjwalvivek/baremetal/refs...

The article itself, and the flagged comment they made on this thread, are also LLM-generated. I feel like we've been on an upwards trend of LLM-generated posts explicitly claiming "I wrote X".

I didn't get the sense that the prose was AI generated at all. How did you come to that conclusion?

From that link:

> ## WHY AUDIO WAS DROPPED

> The game is silent by design. Here is the analysis:

Is the most Claude "couldn't get audio to work for _reasons_ and pivoted away" note I have seen outside of my own bin of half-baked useless code.

It's comical too, jumpy and takes way to long.

Sure it's kinda cool as a gimmick, but it should be like 600-800ms at most if you do want one

Could he have written the assembly, but used AI for the MD file? Is there harm if that is case? Because AI is good at spitting out documentation, so why not.

If you click the little "vibeSwitch" text in the bottom left, then click the small toggle in the bottom right of the popup window, you can turn off the animated background, and the website runs a hell of a lot better, on my browser at least

Additional irony points for the fact that the URL is purportedly pointing to a '.md' file
