      I’ve been holding off subscribing to ChatGPT-Plus because I already have a pretty good system that uses GPT-3-Turbo via the official API. The video you shared pushed me to finally took the leap, and I must say that I am impressed with the level of responses I get.

      The cap of 25 messages every 3 hours is too limiting, though.

        Apparently a big benefit of chatGPT4 is the larger context window which enables you to “teach” the system by correcting it. I tried to do this to teach it the TLA+ proof language but was largely unsuccessful.

          That’s a shame it didn’t already know TLA+!

            It does, just not the proof part of the language.

        Use the developer API, it’s 3 cents per thousand tokens and you can pick your own system message.

      More work on my game engine. If I get basic lighting done I could now switch to making an actual example game.

      2D C99 Game Engine. I had been committing every day for several months and then had to take a break or burnout. Spinning things up again feels difficult, so I’m going to plan some smaller stuff out, and then hopefully finish a plugin system.

        that’s exciting. a simple game engine is on my short list of projects to step up my C skills. What would you say is a good first milestone for making one?

          Getting a graphic up on screen should probably be your first milestone. It was mine. It got the ball rolling from there.

            Oh duh. Yeah that’s a good point. Don’t worry so much about every single detail. Get something on the screen. How do I move it? Remove it? Add more of it? etc… Thanks!

          I don’t feel experienced enough to tell you. I’ll let you know when I finish making one. :)
