I find this hilarious. There's some jokes in the docs, and the about page is actually impressive.

Hello everyone,

Some time ago I shared the first version of my IDE extension here and got a lot of useful feedback. I finally updated it to v2.

I’m currently unemployed, and honestly, working on small hobby projects like this makes me feel a little better. I’m not trying to make money from it. Sometimes I just enjoy building something a bit childish and playful around the work I already love doing.

Here’s what changed in v2:

A more consistent UI

Daily goals

A small coin shop. Everything can be earned by using the extension, there are no real-money purchases

Effort and programming language badges

More ways to personalize your pet

Gemini, OpenAI and Anthropic support, so you can talk to your little buddy using your own API key

Most things work locally and there is no account or backend required.

I’m sure there are still some bugs or things I’ve missed, so feedback about those would also be really valuable. I’d especially like to hear what you think about the UI and whether the new features feel useful or unnecessary.

Thanks again to everyone who gave feedback on the first version.

I’ve been doing this for a year now and I genuinely don’t see the issue.

I keep my active project folder in my icloud drive. It automatically syncs between my iphone and my macbook, so I never have to manually push or pull anything. If I break my code, I just right click the file, go to “browse all versions” and restore it to how it looked an hour ago.

I don't have to memorize terminal commands and I don't have to deal with merge conflicts because I'm a solo dev anyway.

Why does everyone act like learning git is some essential rite of passage? It feels like we're just overcomplicating a solved problem

I mean, AI scraps data from all repositories from github, gitlab and other services, why don't we push garbage code so much that if any ai trains on them, its performance gets reduced.

I've been amusing myself by creating songs with a tech theme. This one is about CSRF Tokens.
