nope, I've never done game dev!

the closest I've come is a handful of games I've never released. so far I have clones of spelling bee, a crossword grid filler, skyjo, and codenames ...

I keep meaning to tidy them up and release something πŸ™ˆ

someday.

Did you ever do GameDev? Any favourite game engines? What are some fun game projects that you worked on, if any?

I think LLMs will absolutely change what kind of job you have in the future.

... and that would also be true of any groundbreaking tech change.

yet, as the saying goes, 'the more things change, the more they stay the same'. learning and adapting _is_ our job.

purpose > tech.

Do AI will take my frontend job in the future? Some of my bosses are already joking about it, that is is best then a junior...

I've never written rust. πŸ¦€

... nor go (which I'd very much like to try), nor a native phone app.

and I'm sure that only scratches the surface of things I don't know! I try to be okay with that.

plus, it means there's always more fun stuff to learn or explore.

coming up with ideas is a muscle - it gets better the more you use it.

don't treat ideas as scarce - scatter them wide! bounce them off others. share.

you can always start by building someone else's idea (a saas you use?) ... or fix pains/frictions you face in your life.

How do you find ideas to build? I find myself with an urge to build but without ideas

I love the fact that everyone seems to play a differentβ€” and essential β€” part.

we're often doing totally different things but it seems to work out 😊

I think a big part of that is trust, which I think is very well exemplified by @atinux and I hope is part of our 'dynamic'

Thanks for all you do for Nuxt.
You, Atinux, the wizard Pooya, and the rest of the team are a great match. πŸ’š

go to uni, enjoy it as a hobby + don't feel pressure to join the industry

1️⃣ make coding/entrepreneur friends
2️⃣ build sth cool
3️⃣ start a side project
4️⃣ go to alumni networking
4️⃣ do hackathons or OSS if you enjoy it

people + stories open doors

I'd say:

1️⃣ build something you want _for yourself_
2️⃣ learn in order to achieve your objective
3️⃣ get to 'reward points' as quickly as possible - achievable wins πŸ‘Œ
4️⃣ ship + iterate - don't be afraid to make mistakes

tips for programming if you're an interested 16yo starting out with a low attention span? :D

it's 4.18pm (weekend time) - I'm back in scotland 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 for a few days before jsnation.

can't promise there has been much of either rest or achievement today πŸ˜†

What time is it for you right now?

I think we're all well aware of 'regression to the mean' as a danger from llms.

... so nuxt + other frameworks need to be able to offer significant enough benefits that people _explicitly choose_ to use them.

that's always been the case though. 🀷

roe.dev/ama

Do you see a big future for Nuxt and smaller frameworks like SvelteKit next to the giants like Next, given AI could push more people to the status-quo React world?

discord is the best/easiest experience I've come across for immediate chat + help.

bear in mind that we're helping tech newbies as well as experienced folk, and I don't want to put any extra barriers in place.

I will absolutely test specific suggestions if you have them tho. πŸ™

roe.dev/ama

Hu, can you with your position maybe try to get people away from discord and try to move the community to a better and open place [maybe matrix]. The walled garden iznt healthy :/

yes, I absolutely ask for feedback from the rest of the team before asking someone to join

... but we're not actively looking to grow the core too much right now

instead, I would say a lot of the people who are doing incredible things for nuxt are on our 'ecosystem team'

roe.dev/ama

How people can be a nuxt core team ? Is there an internal vote ?

on the morning of a conference, I wake up early (4am?) and work through my slides in bed. writing them doesn't really finish until a few minutes before I go on stage.

my slides are my notes - so it also helps cement what I want to say into my mind

... but if I don't sleep well πŸ’€

roe.dev/ama

Hi buddy, what do you do internally before start a conference?
