Fun idea, I mean, I use old.reddit.com, would probably use classic.github.com too...

Imagine YouTube Classic...

Really cool

I don't think so, I think SQL is unintuitive and hard to parse. Enough ppl disagree with me though judging by it's success it was clearly good enough

Agreed on both point, I think you underlined pretty well what was bugging me with the article !

I love the idea of SQL but to this day after years of using it I still have a strong dislike for it.

The syntax never was intuitive and still isn't, I always mix it up, I found it syntax error always a pain to debug, the tooling is all over the place.

I do agree that it's a truly valuable skill and expect it to last more 30 years.

I had a case in my job of an HR guy that was so bad a communication everything was super confusing and we always had issues and tension. Once GPT came out he clearly just copy / pasted LLM output and I was very conflicted because it felt insulting but it was the first time I was actually able to understand what he intended to say...

I sadly would prefer LLM output over prompt because I'm pretty sure the prompting was a process with him he would prompt, get a bad LLM output, seeing the LLM wasn't understanding force him to clarify and we ended up with actually understandable content.

Naming things is my principal use for AI, I don't always pick a name from the suggested ones but it sure help me find better ones.

It is definitly worth it, and moving to rust because compile times are too slow ? This can't be the main reason for the switch

Also this works on node too now, don't sleep on node improvements

Node supports ts natively now though.

TurtleWoW wasn't a simple copy of the original game, you can see this as a legit extension it's a lot of work.

Sure it's no way comparable to the initial work of the original game but it's short sighted to think it's just a rip-off

I agree with your first statement, this match what I've witness when I learned coding by doing my own private sever.

But I can ensure you that my motivation wasn't money, and I don't think it's the case for most starting projects. How ever, with success come temptation, also if you can easily justify getting some cash

I could hire some dev, I could get a better server, do some promotion, etc...

And then when money arrive it's hard not to feel all your hard work doesn't deserve a bit of the share.

To me the main issue is that there is no legitimate way to license blizz IP and give back a share.

TurtleWoW wasn't a simple "recycle the content and don't pay for retail" type, and those are actually a lot of work interesting take on the classic game.

It's a shame there are no good legal way to make a legit business to explore those ideas more seriously and for the "private server scene" to grow up in it.
