I really wanted to work on making a niche game with one other person. Never found that person.

No. What they need is to stop being told "ok this is good enough now we need you to implement this other highly-necessary half-assed feature using ai as fast as possible."

First day of paradigms course in the 2000s and prof says "if your opinion of Scheme is too many parentheses, then you're an idiot."

Needless to say that was my opinion and every day I think, more and more, how right he was.

(later I did make some gui apps that included scripting and chose s-expr syntax because of how simple it is to implement it)

It used to be that raspberry pi was a cheap pc. Well it's not longer cheap.

And at their price point, you could just get a mini PC and have better performance, or if you want to use it as a microcontroller, you can just use an arduino, esp32, or an actual microcontroller for a fraction of the price and power consumption.

So, what do people actually do with these pies?

Really hits hard when you have to go to Home Depot to buy 6 spade connectors for $7.99 to use in a project with 3.3V 300mA max, when you can buy about 500 of them from Aliexpress for the same price.

So many words just to say you want more money.

There was a time back in covid days where you had to have an app on your phone to go through customs clearance in Canada.

Can you translate this for those of us who don't speak rust?

Web interfaces aren't any better. They're designed to for aesthetics and not functionality. Not to mention the fact that they all have their own UI idioms that you have to pick up on.

Not only did we use it several times every week for 4 years, I spent 4 years writing tons of programs on it. Best $100 ever spent, thanks mom & dad.

This sounds like something straight from LinkedIn...
