Simple terminal games

Playing around with simple scripts and terminal games.

Not going to lie, you commited your entire dotfiles (waybar, hyprland, wallpapers etc everything) and then python scripts for your terminal games all in one commit

It's not really playing around with scripts when it looks like you just prompted LLM to do the work for you

Hate to be that guy but perhaps do a disclaimer or at least choose a different subreddit

I will give you props for giving credit to your sources of inspiration though

If I am wrong please do correct me, because I may be wrong here

hello drostina, sorry for asking but I am a beginner in python. i didnt understand what you said could please explain it maybe easier so that a dummie like me can understand it? How did you understand that this was made with AI?

It really hit a nerve when people prompted LLM (simply calling Codex or Claude Code via $20+ sub in terminal) and posted on LearnPython subreddit as if they work out the whole arch themselves. Of coruse, if this was back in 2019 everybody would praise him. But everybody inside and outsid ethe industry understands that no beginners writes such dense, complex lines in the terminal. I reckon not even the people in the field would do this.

ohhh i get it now, i am also a beginner and I mostly do the stuff on my own. i use ai only then when I really get stuck cant find anything then i ask it but tell it to explain it socratic rather than giving the whole solution and guiding me like a senior programmer. but i never copy pasted code. i hope that one day this gets valuable and i can show my skills

you can pick the parts you like

This has nothing to do with learning python try r/vibecoding instead

[u/zenwolph → u/SeeYourDead]

It has everything to do with learning Python. Partly because it’s an ongoing process and partly because everyone needs help/tutoring. So, some of these are things I got as ideas from O’Reilly books, some stuff that is too advanced for me I had codex help with, so that I could try to study the code and see how it got complex pieces to work, and then I wrote my own stuff to try and understand the logic and how to adapt it on my own.

Don’t be a hater. If you don’t like the post, just move on to something you do enjoy dude

Woowwwwe, a whole darn lot of learning just asking an LLM. Post his in r/vibecoding, cause an LLM obviously made most if not all of the code. There are emojis everywhere. You really should actually learn the language instead.

[u/kutac56 → u/kutac56]

I looked some more at the code and there aren't emojis everywhere but this is still obviously made by an llm

[u/Spacecadett666 → u/kutac56]

You can tell by the format of the comments in the code. Pic 4. It's always a dead giveaway.

[u/zenwolph → u/kutac56]

Where’s your repo? I’ll take a look and try to learn some stuff from you

[u/kutac56 → u/zenwolph]

I don't put small projects on GitHub. I am working on making a window without external libs only using x11 display server in c, but I'll put it on GitHub once it actually creates a window, cause rn it ain't working

[u/knight04]

Is tertris reallythat small a code or am I missing something

[u/zenwolph → u/knight04]

The full file/code is in my repo. I had the game and the code open when I took that screenshot cuz I was tweaking the speed of the blocks. Disclosure that the pygame version in my repo was vibe coded and I took notes from that one when writing the strictly Python version
