I’ve had everything on this list with Visual Studio alone, with the exception of #2 maybe.

1. All the AI shit they’re adding, plus the millions of windows you can pull up that are all hidden in different places. The only way this is remotely usable is with the search.

2. This happens every other day when working with Blazor. As an added bonus, it can never decide on spacing and will constantly change it.

3. Probably a symptom of using legacy code and modern code at the same time, but good god the settings for everything are in a million places.

4. Another symptom of blazor.

5. Our project is too big.

Agreed

It’s a bit of both. I’ll try to help him if he asks for help if/when the AI leads him down the wrong path, but who knows how deep in the tangled weeds of spaghetti he’ll be in by then.

I don’t think he’s gonna need much math. He will need complicated editor things set up though, and I’m doubtful that the AI will understand much.

I have a friend who is trying to vibe code a unity project. I don’t have high hopes for him, but I’m doing my best to support him and help him out.

I’m shocked that friday’s deployment to prod didn’t explode.

I’ve been doing some shady shit with regex lately (parsing .md files for interactive TTRPG sheets), but I’m glad to have not been touching XML

88 is typically used either on its own, or in full as 1488 by neo nazis and fascists. It’s a dog whistle.

On its own, it can be used accidentally, such as if you have 88 in your username because you were born in '88, but if paired with other behavioral patterns it can become damning.

Been using this for a while now. For my needs, it’s the best distro out there.
