Unfortunately... I want to mirror this sentiment. I interviewed a lot of candidates (and worked with many teammates) in my last few roles and I saw some pretty worrying trends...

I actually had to do this exact thing with my game recently in order to create interesting AI patterns during combat.

The only way this happens is if models that are specifically made to do certain kinds of coding start to exist. Then this would start to become an issue, yes, until those models are distilled into smaller models.

You mean 35B A3B? If this is shit, this is some of the best shit out I've seen yet. Never in a million years did I think I'd have an LLM running locally, actually writing code on my behalf. Accurately too.

I'm using Qwen 3.5 27b on my 4090 and let me tell you. This is the first time I am seriously blown away by coding performance on a local model. They are almost always unusable. Not this time though...

That's funny. I wrote a blog post about something very similar. https://dextermiguel.com/posts/codex-helped-me-recover-lost-...

> The build.bat above isn’t just a helper script; it’s a declaration of independence from the Visual Studio Installer. I am so fed up with this! Please if you're writing an article using LLMs stop writing like this!

My personal favorite: That’s not a threat. It’s free R&D.

I was enjoying the article, and then the author hit me with one of these: > AI didn't just repeat the mistake. It broke the mistake open. Come on bruh

Good post. I'd argue this is very similar to solo game development. There's a lot of extra administrative stuff that simply has nothing to do with actually making games and a lot more to do with making a real business. So the fram

Actually, LLM fiction writing is awfully bad. But it does help with ideas! I'm trying my hardest to make it feel high quality instead of just slop.

I'm building all of the systems with LLMs and using LLMs to fast track the creation of content such as storylines, characters, etc. All of the assets are mostly bought and created by me.

I'm building an entire game on Unity using LLMs. It's an action RPG.

Did you get those backwards? Codex, Gemini, etc. all wait until the requests are done to accept user feedback. Claude Code allows you to insert messages in between turns.

SSD-native RDBMS sounds good in theory! What's in mean in practice? What relational databases are simpler and more performant? Point me in their direction!

I don't get what's so difficult to understand. They have ambitions beyond just coding. And Claude is generally a good LLM. Even beyond just the coding applications.

I've actually started moving away from Postgres to MySQL and SQLite. I don't want to have to deal with the vacuums/maintenance/footguns.

I actually thought Blender's support for USD was coming along nicely? I remember setting up a scene with Blender, USD and Unreal Engine and it worked pretty well.

No it isn't. Many, if not most, people in the industry use Maya.

by dimgl 8mo ago
Blender has an input keymap for people who use Maya, yes. It's called "Industry Compatible". So yes, Maya keybinds.

How's the Strix Halo? I'd really like to get a local inference machine so that I don't have to use quantized versions of local models.

by dimgl 8mo ago
I really like Blender and it's an amazing product, but I can't get over the standard Blender keymap. The "industry compatible" workflow is more sane, but then I have to translate tutorials from the Blender keymap to the
