How do I trick my brain into completing a project? I’m making an app that shows which voice actor plays a character in the movie and what other movies they act in. It’s useful for me personally but I feel like I’m making something that’s been done numerous times over and I lost the momentum because I’m on vacation with my family now. I ran into some problems with the project too and getting help takes a ton of time so it’s disrupting the rythm too. I really have to put at least 2-3 projects like this for a portfolio;_;
Have you tried using chatGPT or GitHub copilot?
It’s a last resort. I don’t like using it and it’s a 50/50 anyway. One time it suggests reasonable things, the other time it totally misses the point. I’m not sure if the suggestions are following best practices too.
I think making effective use of those tools is it’s own skill. They can give you bad results if you ask things too broadly. But copilot chat has become a pretty invaluable part of my workflow.
Oh well, maybe that’s true.
