    Path of Exile

    Just getting to maps. Slayer Shield Crush has been a great league start, especially since Dawnbreaker is 1c, which I would not have counted on 1 day into the league. IDK if better than Ele Hit, which is likely still great despite the nerf. Just, different. League mechanic is ok. Charts seem...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I have a subordinate like that. There's something missing in their ability to apply introspection to their processes. If you have a repo the size of Android, might be fun to see how he copes with that.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    How do you measure if you're too reliant on AI? My boss made an offhand remark recently that he uses Claude to do everything. I think most people interpreted it to mean within the context of coding, but I've seen him use it to write performance reviews. That aside, he's a pretty smart guy...

    More tokens. More choice of what models you can use those tokens on.

    Path of Exile

    Yes, the games being testing grounds for each other is quite lame. 1 is still better in a few very important and fundamental ways however.

    Better than 3.28 version. What's the point of spiders you can't support with gems?

    Seriously, out gearing mechanics is the true endgame of poe. Which is why sprint is bullshit.

    The Drama (2026)

    Is this uncomfortable in it makes you think about taboo topics? I really liked After Life for that. Or is this uncomfortable for second-hand embarrassment? If so, no thanks, repressed memories surfacing unasked do that enough.

    Pluribus

    Wait, what? Did they start writing Season 2 after Season 1 finished airing? Was Vince needed for every part of the process?

    Path of Exile 2

    Ah, yeah, forgot about that. I *think* that carries over league to league as I started this one quite late and I was buying stuff prior to Act 4. Either way, glad you made a choice. I sometimes find myself playing PoE2 out of boredom and getting frequently frustrated.

    Path of Exile 2

    Yes, trade for upgrades, those single exalts will get you significant weapon upgrades at this point in the league. They'd rather nerf the campaign than figure out how to sensibly get players loot in a loot game. And to be fair, PoE1 absolutely has the same problem. It's just heavily mitigated...

    Maybe this means they found a way to make ToTA fun.
