The main reason I'm still posting and reading on Reddit is that I belong to a lot of small subreddits that haven't had any reason to migrate elsewhere. You can dislike what Reddit leadership is doing, but lots of people belonging to small subreddits haven't been impacted as much.

This question had me trying to get ChatGPT to code a simple game.

My prompt was "Create a Tetris game using Java Swing". ChatGPT provided code. I copied the code into my IDE and found an entire missing class.

ChatGPT is basically a natural language search engine. If what it finds is wrong, its code will be wrong.

If you can't code, what are you going to do when a ChatGPTgenerated game fails a test?

Even a simple video game requires hundreds of hours of play testing.

I was speaking from personal experience in the states I mentioned, as well as everyone else responding to your post.

You can separate native recipes from recipes brought later by other cultures, but the only difference is native recipes were brought by the original settlers.

Burritos are an interesting example. In Mexican rural areas, burritos were plain, as the people didn't historically have access to spices. When the burrito was originally brought to Texas, the cooks added spices. Now, you can find burritos almost anywhere in the world, each city making them with their own flavor. Just like hot dogs and pizza.

You could have a month (or quarter year) featuring food from the different states. Louisiana is known for boiled crabs and crawfish, as well as Cajun and creole cooking. Maryland is known for crab cakes. Utah is known for gelatin salads. Nebraska (Omaha) is known for its steaks. North Carolina is known for two distinct types of barbecue sauce.

It depends on where you live, but a lot of large US cities have their own fueling stations. That way, the city can buy fuel by the tanker load and avoid gas taxes.

When you bought the home, what did your home inspector say about the foundation cracks?

Call a professional to do a foundation inspection. Your cracks might be nothing or they could be serious. Only a foundation expert can tell you for sure.

No, they are not the same political parties, make sure you vote to keep the communists out. Also, vote in the primaries so we can get more conservative/freedom representatives as candidates. Voting is not the only answer to salvage the future but it's definitely a part of the answer.
