Re: AI Code Assistants Programming Software Development by jwenting It's faster to write the code yourself than it is to fix up the junk produced by those AI "assistants". Code generators have been around for decades for specific purposes, and can work well, but these things are pretty much useless. Re: AI Code Assistants Programming Software Development by Reverend Jim A lot of editors support libraries of code snippets which are generally written and debugged by humans. Re: AI Code Assistants Programming Software Development by antwanlee I'd recommend you to go with ollama: https://ollama.com/ Its FOSS and easy to install: ``` curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh ollama run dolphin-mixtral ``` Other than that I use chatgpt a lot for all kinds of different things, but I prefer ollama's dolphin-mixtral for coding for now.

Re: AI Code Assistants Programming Software Development by spuriousgeek I've tried using co-pilot, codeium, claude, chatgpt and gemini. They are good for repetitive work but anything remotely complex and they are pretty terrible tbh. I find that it's quicker for me to just solve issues on my own a lot of the time than try to prompt my way through.

Programming Software Development by rproffitt When I work such an issue I set the breakpoint where the trouble is and examine variables. There's some variable that controls the output so that's what you look at.

Programming Software Development by m_624 In RayCasting, you may observe wider vertical lines on a square grid due to the nature of the algorithm. This phenomenon occurs because the vertical lines represent intersections of rays with grid cells, and depending on the angle and distance of the rays, they may intersect multiple grid cells horizontally, resulting in wider lines compared to the… Re: RayCasting: why i get a more width vertical lines on square grid size?
