Programadores quejándose porque los asistentes con IA les aturden con sugerencias al escribir el código y yo, aquí, añadiendo funcionalidades a una aplicación en #VB6 😅

BTW Here’s a modern open-source, regularly updated, portable image editor written in Visual Basic 6 that runs on XP and up and outperforms GIMP: https://photodemon.org/
I’m building a #VB6-style interpreter in #FreePascal! 🎉
It parses & runs `.BAS`-like code with support for classic keywords like `Dim`, `If`, `For`, `Sub`, `Goto`, `Print`, and more.
✅ Done:
`If/Then/Else`, `Goto`, `Sub`, `Call`, `Input`, `Print`, `For/Next`, `Do While`, etc.
🔧 In progress: `ElseIf`, `Select Case`, `Exit Sub`, `Const`, loops
🚧 Next: `Function`, `Return`, `Gosub`, `File I/O`, `Type`, `Error Handling`
amazing day at work today!!!
setup vb6 enterprise in a virtual machine (💀) so myself and my coworkers can actually make bug fixes for one of our apps we maintain
because im so cool, i got it working in 6hr and fixed the CI/CD scripts because someone deleted them by accident
(for context, that piece of software is extremely important at my work and is at least a few years older than me. and it's so god damn fucking cursed)
