I am going to finance some movies and video games. I might even make it back.

My team or I have not had very much luck with it. We were spending a lot of time picking out bad generated code.

It is not machine learning and LLM that pisses off Lemmy users. Its the application of said technologies. I don’t give a flying fuck what people are doing with ChatGPT, its novel. I want a generative AI that can help me code.

The processors are so much more powerful now. You wouldn’t last a day without being extremely frustrated.

Games take 3 to 5 years to develop and switching engines during development is a very poor decision. In two years you will see how many companies have moved on.

A lot of you have a lot of faith in people reviewing PRs. I know a few Sr. developers, that if shit was too busy, would skim it and say 'fuck it, it will be QAs problem. If you put this in the correct sub-system in file that would only be executed once a month, for example a maintenance class, It would be really hard to notice something is wrong if it didn’t cause issues seen immediately. Maybe this is the story of an intern that added something that also fucked up boolean comparisons in a subsystem used once a month. Where there is a 2 week lag between the execution and operations noticing something wrong.

I learned this the hard way, I forgot to commit for a single day and got burned really bad when my regression tests failed and I could not trace the issue(it is called source control for a reason). I declared it was more efficient to revert back to the last commit than spend time fixing broken code that I had no fucking clue where it was and the only thing I had to go by was that it happened between two commits with a whole work day between.

Canadian Engineering Associations will actually get you for illegally labeling yourself an Engineer. I did a software developer program and after graduating a few people decided to start calling themselves engineers. The organization contacted each person individually and I belive the program coordinator. It is a serious title here, it is the same as a healthcare worker calling themselves an RN without being registered with the nursing college.
