- "Cozy atmosphere with like-minded people sharing the same passion and vision."

- "You gained a dozen of cool people here, forget about opinions in the internet."

That's what I expected from my channel. Thank you!

modevs··on Writing a Rust compiler in C
Rewrite it in C. Great idea. Just do not tell it to rust community...

I like to see that programmers like you still exist and belive in what they do.

Remembered this article... https://drewdevault.com/2019/03/25/Rust-is-not-a-good-C-repl...

modevs··on The art of programming and why I won't use LLM
The changes into industry definitely coming. But AI will affect not only programming. And handmade products will cost more than autogenerated ones.

Programming started sucks before when companies started to orient on fast income and preferred pure quality templated projects over well-made efficient ones.

This world changes. Many people have nothing to do and with AI amount of them will grow. It scare.

The times when #codecrafters will be as valuable as gold coming... I would prefer to rock into this times.
modevs··on Humble advice for those who want to switch to game development
I hope for discussion. Sorry, I will not do this anymore. Only links, right?

Reasonable. Thanks for your answer.

The world is full of possibilities, so for sure it's not true and cannot be true for all of us.

Someone moved from C, others didn't move.

I am trying to point not so on C, but on tendention in general. Capitalistic companies dictate to us what technologies to use. Money became a higher priority than engineering.

Can you say to your boss "No, stack you using sucks, I will use X language and libraries"? I know that someone can for sure, but most of us can't.

I have started learning programming with Turbo Pascal. Actually with BASIC. But Pascal became my favorite 25 years ago, and then moved to Borland Pascal, it was magic times - handmade games, algorithms... I felt myself a sorcerer making miracle things. Nowadays I feel myself an outcast in the world of templates, who writes his own libraries for corporate projects.

Thank you for your advice. I have not looked into Pascal long time. Can you advice some resources, repos, communities?
