I experience it with everything including opus/fable. Though my feeling, no proof, is that the opus/fable today is not what it was months ago. there was a time for about a month where opus was incredible. Just incredible but as fa

I never said ai was not useful nor that it cannot be used on small parts. The issue is size. I think you are projecting other people on to me with is counter productive. Slop and vibe coding are valid. It is specifically for describing crap

Ahh yes the “you’re holding it wrong defense”. Now i ask what enormous extremely complicated projects…excuse me by projects we mean real production software with real scale. Sure, it can poke one system or another but even with opus and now

Press y to doubt that 1k/m using opus… that cannot be true.

- We are operating at margins that are 3-10x lower than comparable platform and publishing businesses What comparable platform is there? Are they thinking netflix? God i hate corporate execs like this.

Not defending Kalshi but stock market has been gambling lite for a while now. It is pretty wild how blatant it is now though.

The hotdogs. You know the world is ending when Costco raises the prices of their hotdog.

But most people go to Costco for bulk buys. amazon deliveries are almost daily sometimes multiple a day and STILL have the same giant trucks dropping off product at distribution centers.

It is called for and is substantiated. Should the guy get prosecuted over it? Probably not although a precedent is moving towards pushing and or telling someone to kill them selves constitutes some kind of criminal liability at least in the

It started with d4 before poe and was painfully obvious then. Poe was just icing on the cake as it is not for the casual. It is also so bizarre to brag about rankings for games where the grind to end game is a massive time sink. It wasnt li

I started out writing my own engine. Never finished a game. Switch to unity and finished two then hit industry. Both games were mediocre if I am generous. The janky demos i made with the custom engine felt and looked so much better. I even

That is amazing and i am jealous.

Who is John Carmack? That old dude from the 90s? I kid, but there are many other modern Carmacks and id argue even more impressive contributions. The guy has done little since he left gaming. I wish more people praised Alex Evans. Dreams re

Press C to doubt. This doesnt explain all the stories of long time og people from both getting let go. I have worked in big tech and little tech finding banger engineers in both. Comp != quality.

While the sister comment is down voted, they are not necessarily wrong. AI absolutely makes custom 3d engines easier to make because the math is very well understood. Most games do not need 90% of the features 3d engines have. A simple geom

by rustystump 3mo ago
I always argued for custom game engines not for performance but so your game “feels” unique. I can spot a unity or unreal game from miles away. They have a smell if you will that is very hard to escape. Every game that has a custom engine j

It was d4 first then poe he lied about. These games are more about minmaxing and gear grind. It is why it was even more weird to brag about it. It wasnt like he was moggin the ladder in LoL where it is pure skill no grind up to end game.

It was d4 first and then poe2.

That was i think the most revealing thing about his character bar none because of how mundane it all was. Anyone with a tiny bit of video game background called that out from miles away. It was so pathetic. Richest dude in world with spaces

The pill has more power in the argument here. Thinking is still nebulous and the same could have been said in the 70-80s. The magic weight loss pill really is groundbreaking. However, the gap has widened massively between who reaps the most

It is sad. This is a new reality. No one reads code, it is agents all the way down. It has been long enough now that I can safely say AI has not sped up project delivery nor improved quality when it did ship. Is it the AI or the people usin

I am on the ground. This is great. Still, why css is as slow as it is given what tech like imgui can do is a little wild.

by rustystump 3mo ago
That is the problem imo. Most tech workers want a big check and no work. Gross. I like the work. But i do get wanting to get a nut with little effort.

It also signals low effort or subpar quality too. Hey look we slapped gpt on our healthcare app. Is it useful? Not really but the ceo is excited about it

Most self help books can be boiled down to very obvious tools and coping strategies. If it is the first time you have come across the concepts, it can be useful but if it isnt, it is useless. Is paying 15$ too much to pay? If learning about

I dont think so. I strongly prefer cursor over claude code and the composer model is basically unlimited and free also being super fast. Of all the ai companies out there, anthropic and cursor are the two id invest in.

They are pricing in inflation along with the inevitable money printing that will happen.
