Rage Coding

 Right. so this is the deal. Break open a bottle of Cursor AI. Get Speech to Text working. If you are Irish, quantity has a quality of it's own. Tell the AI to make you a viral app. When it won't compile, yell at it util it does. At some point it will randomly destroy the codebase. Version control my rear end, scream at it until it compiles. You will probably have about 6 lines of code though, and it won[t actually do anything. Repeat ... Until you have 100 lines of code that will compile.

Copy that into notepad. Make it clear to the AI that you know where it lives.

Then copy/paste that Notepad masterpiece back into Cursor and whisper softly: “Behave.”
The AI will respond by hallucinating 4000 warnings about semicolons. Ignore them. They’re lies.

Don’t fight it. Let the madness flow.

When you finally get something that vaguely resembles an app screen — a rectangle with colors, maybe a rogue text label that says “Hello from 1998” — take a screenshot. Congratulations. You now have App Store marketing material.

Deploy to internal testing. Watch as your friends can’t install it because of certificate hell. Curse loudly, threaten the AI with re-training, then try again. By the fifteenth build, you’ll have something that doesn’t crash until at least the splash screen. This is called “progress.”

Rage coding isn’t about making good software. It’s about establishing dominance over silicon. Every time the compiler gives you an error, you treat it like a duel.

Repeat this loop until you’ve cobbled together 200 lines of unstable genius. Then — and only then — submit it to the store with a title like “AI Rage Builder 3000.”

It will be rejected instantly, but that’s not the point. The point is: the machine knows you’re serious now.

Why AI won't replace Software Developers.

Once upon a time, there was no Internet. So if you were coding, and you got an error, you had to be able to fix it yourself. So the development environment had to work. Then with the Internet, you could fix it using Google and stackoverflow. So the development environment became an undocumented horror show. You would spend a third of you time trying fixes from the internet until something inexplicably worked.

Now with AI, you can get thing fixed quickly without having to understand why. The development environment will evolve into a hot mess that can only be understood by AI. So you will have to develop a meta-skill on how to use AI to work around the hot mess. You will spend a third of your time trying fixes from the AI until something inexplicably works.

So AI means that software development can no longer be understood by humans, and when ChatGPT injects imaginary stupidity into your codebase and corresponding product, you will have to learn to like it.

Your application will be unusable as it stands, so you will add a top AI UI layer to fake the output the user wants to see.

Then the system for creating the top layer will descend into a hot mess, but a new layer of AI UI will fix that. Life will not become easier.

Also, if Software development becomes twice as fast, users will expect twice as many features at half the cost.

Murder Mystery web app

And now for a Murder Mystery web app, like Chronicles of Crime without the QR codes and 360° panorama.

This is Sherlock Holmes, but since it is just reading a textfile, it can be reskinned easily. So I should do that in Flutter and spam the Play and App store with a hundred Murder She Wrote apps. Or 40k: “The Curious Case of the Cursed Commissar”. No, Scooby-Doo  it is. “The Case of the Meddling Kids”.

Massive Darkness 2 board game: Web App to give each minion a special ability

Massive Darkness 2 is a board game in which Minions are just ablative armour for the leader. And I went to the trouble of painting 6 minis 

.I want to justify the existence of each minion, and adjust game difficulty.
Therefore:

Each minion is assigned a number.
Each minion has a special ability.
When attacking, we pick a specific minion to attack.

This simple web app lists the special abilities of each minion.
https://francisclarke.com/md2/

If the target is killed, you can select a second target for any remaining swords. Or not, if you want to increase difficulty.
This means that the Hero has to work out which minion is the biggest threat and plan accordingly.

If you are luddite, you can implement this with a bag of chits or a D12 and a table.
If you are not, you can View Source in the browser, copy and paste into a text editor such as notepad, edit the tokens text to your heart's content, and save it as md2.html.
If you click on your md2.html, you get your own Kustom web app.

Advanced Heroquest "Generating the Dungeon" online application

 

Here is an Advanced Heroquest "Generating the Dungeon" online application. It generates rooms, doors, corridors, monsters, treasures, hazards and so on.

There are different flavours of dungeon some from White Dwarf Magazine (google White Dwarf Advanced Heroquest), and "Dungeons & Dragons: Castle Ravenloft Board Game (2010)" version.

So you can have a Skaven dungeon, Undead, Chaos dungeon. Although you are stuck with what is on the menu. (Sorry, we stopped serving breakfast. We' re on the lunch menu).

Inspired by "AHQ_Map_Generator.zip by 4afc" and El Lic @RECIVS on Boardgamegeek. Some selections have levels of increasing difficulty and reward.

Polish for "dyslexic" is cierpiący na dysleksję.

In Polish "dyslexic" is "cierpiący na dysleksję". At least it doesn't have an "x" in it.

The colour blind can see through camouflage.

Someone I knew never smiled. When he was 60, he realised he had prosopagnosia: the inability to recognize faces.

Such people should have difficulty reading people, but they don't. If you can't read faces, from birth you use other cues. You compensate from the day you were born. So you see through camouflage.

Richard Branson couldn't read, so he watched people's faces during the PowerPoint presentation. 

Everybody in the room loves the job candidate. You say "He seems to be a nutcase" and then shut up because nobody sees past the practiced charm. Two months later he walks out after a 2 hour screaming session and doesn't come back.

If you have prosopagnosia, the parts of your brain that deal with body language and tone of voice will be physically larger than other people, since you have had to rely on these cues from birth.

If you think someone is a "bad listener" or "socially awkward", they can probably see straight through you.

The slightly odd guy in the room sees through camouflage.
