Hi! from what I can tell, the data for the API I used was mostly taken from wiktionary. However since "orwellian" has an entry Wiktionary, i think the API must be somewhat out of date.
Good call, AI-Gen code is the same as most copied code, it might work, but you won't know why, which means that further development will be more difficult.
Not really a postmortem in my opinion. While they did answer the central question of "why", I feel like a proper postmortem should question the problem more.
It sounds really stupid now, but I was working with threads in Java. There are two ways to implement a thread, either implementing the interface runnable or extending the class thread. I originally had a class that implemented runnable with a custom method called getState(). To initialize a thread while using runnable, you have to pass the runnable object to a thread as a constructor parameter. The class thread also has a method called getState() and I spent an embarrassing amount of time wondering why I had totally different values than expected.
