@PopularTopular This doesn't look anything like Guild Wars...

[Dex @divmgl]

@GuildWars Is this a new expansion to Guild Wars?

[Dex @divmgl]

@SandyofCthulhu No this is common everywhere. I’ve shown off work in progress stuff to people and their comments are usually not on the substance of the work but the superficial elements of it. It’s just human nature. They want to see the finished product, not how the sausage is made.

@Doctorthe113 @theo Have you tried using Kimi 2.6? It's almost unusable.

[Dex @divmgl]

@Aiswarya_Sankar Rework at $0.27 is low. I'd be willing to bet rework will become $0.70 once companies and engineering teams catch wind of what's going on under the hood.

[Dex @divmgl]

@therealcliffyb You know the answer to that. They're far worse and it's not even close. I'd even say the games 20 years ago were more engaging (2006).

@atmoio don't apologize

[Dex @divmgl]

@ettingermentum I'd rewatch the entire series with everyone talking like this

@AvgDatabaseCEO This is the realest thing ever

Everyone is always rooting for you. Your parents want you to be a great son. Wife wants you to be a great husband. Your boss wants you to be a slam dunk hire. Every first date you’ve ever been on they’ve been rooting for you to get laid. Every time you started to tell a joke people hoped it would have a hilarious punch line. Your proximity to anyone is a reflection of themself, meaning the deck is never stacked against you, and your failures are completely your own

@ayushtweetshere That’s just not how it works. You’re telling me everyone had equal performance before AI?

I’m all for not firing people in the name of AI, but let’s be serious.

@SebAaltonen @SebAaltonen you’re still baking though, correct? How are you preserving so much detail otherwise?

[Dex @divmgl]

@SebAaltonen Dude sick

Meta laying off 10% of staff when revenue is at an all-time high, revenue growth is a beast (33% YoY!!), profits at an all-time high:

just depressing

These layoffs are not because Meta needs to lay off, but because Zuck wanted to lay off for whatever reason

@VGrantcharov @dan_note Frontend and devops are still software eng.

@SandyofCthulhu This is why I follow you, cheers. I love Age of Empires II and The Conquerors was a huge part of my childhood
