    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    This is pretty much my life. For a long time. Which shows how ineffective I am at dealing with it. Unfortunately, at this point with the job market, I haven't seen any option other than Just Doing It, until I have an signed offer in hand from somewhere else. Which I haven't had much success...

    Crimson Desert

    I bought this on the 20% off sale, skipping the growing pains. It's a more than complete game. I finished the main story and still have a frightening amount of incomplete stuff. Looking forward to firing it up again to experience the new stuff. Glad I didn't spend a bunch of resources to move my...

    I think this is the key. @Deathwing I try to break the work into logical components and make sure the agent understands the phases/checkpoints I want along the way. So like the phase 1 batch of the work is performed, I inspect/iterate there and when it's done - commit. Phase 2, same thing...

    @Deathwing can the work be broken down into smaller chunks?

    Claude code. It’s built into the gui now but I still use the command line. Make a folder for your project, run Claude From within that folder. Here‘s the starter project I did for one of my kids. Download and install the latest version of python that pygame works with. Here is an approximate...
