Thanks for the tip. That should make for a fun weekend
I don't see the reason to use any of the new ms ui frameworks. Especially if ms themselves don't even really use them.
As far as I know visual studio is still a WPF project so I'm not super worried about it no longer working.
Maybe because you can fit the whole language spec on a single sheet of paper and adding more advanced features is pretty easy.
Love looks really cool. I never got into it personally but I still might
I feel likethe mindset you are describing is kind of this intermediate senior level. Sadly a lot of programmers can get stuck there for their whole career. Even worse when they get promoted to staff/principal level and start spreading dogma.
I 100 percent agree. If you can't show me a real world performance difference you are just spinning your wheels and wasting time.

I've been happy with monogame when I used it in the past. I'm pretty sure Celeste was made with FNA
I suggest you read through the sibling comments.
It's in that realm but more complex. I do plan to repeatedly come back and try though. Just so far it hasn't been useful.
Results vary of course. I have some very wonderful synthesizer manuals.
As soon as I tried to make a todomvc it started working great but I wonder how much value that really brings to the table.
It's great for me though. I can finally make a todomvc tailored to my specific needs.
I think the issue was when I used an engine the scope was too large and I never completed the work so I never released the game (or I released it for free because I felt it was incomplete and wasn't worth charging for)
It's great to work in a constrained environment
If I remember correctly it was a team of 2.
I'm not sure if this is true anymore but years ago I heard from some business owners in my area that Google would call them to keep business information up to date. I imagine there's some form of automation these days (robocalls maybe?) but if that is the case it's kind of funny to think they are superior because they still do some stuff somewhat manually.
Sounds like it won't really be a pain for me though based off comments on HN indicating Claude is the better product and I doubt I personally would hit any sort of token limits with the amount I use agentic coding.
We're starting to see some gametap-esqu stuff again these days but it's like 15 years later and the quality isn't there for me. Even though my employer keeps giving me free Xbox ultimate subscriptions I never really use them. I think a big part was gametap was so frictionless, you boot up the client and start playing.
