ive personally found LLM coding to be pretty effective if i adhere to very strict “engineering best practices” like TDD, good documentation, thorough API design, systems design, etc.

im very afraid that the next generation of software engineers will never develop the skills needed to make the most out of it because they skipped the rudiments of good software engineering.

to me it feels like playing jazz without learning scales. it’s possible to be an incredible jazz musician without formal training if you’re a savant… but you’re probably not.

if you’re just trying to play old games, nearly all of them are capable enough to run emulators up to ps1. pick the one that supports the controls you want or is in the form factor you find the most comfortable.
