“How my brain does left and right”

Anything anatomy related (and subspaces thereof) are based on anatomical convention. Everything else is based on camera space.

Makes sense to me and I won’t fight it.

The reason why catgirls dislike Java, is because they have vertical pupils, and thus need to rotate their head 90 degrees to take in the long class names.

AI generation when writing software is a false economy. You are replacing writing code with code review. Code review is harder and requires you to already have an understanding of the domain which often means that you would’ve even able to write it yourself to begin with. If you code gen something because you don’t know how to write it yourself, you by definition cannot review it without going though an effort equivalent to writing it yourself in the first place.

Unless of course you don’t care about code review and so doom yourself into treating software like magical incantations that break randomly for no perceivable reason; but no good mage would do that, surely.
