    Cremation chambers are full of hot spots. And if you're cooking a fatty, just think of the flare ups! No way a bone-in, irregularly-shaped, 6 inch thick human roast is cooking uniformly in that environment.

    I know you've cooked enough...anything, really, to know this is quite false. You need to do better. At showering and enthoughtening.

    I'm not advocating for wisdom scrolls or any friction in particular. I'm just not sure what it looks like if wisdom scrolls were the right choice. Thus, I'd like to be on the lookout for that, whatever that might be.

    I've done that part before, when my company was small enough that HR was one person and we had no recruiter. It was a nightmare filtering through resumes. I can't imagine how it is now with AI. Very related: whenever my son figures out what he wants to do, I'm pushing hard for internships in...

    So...what point do wisdom scrolls play anymore? What's left on Chris' friction and/or "don't have the tech" list? What happens if Chris was right? People burnout faster?

    How did you know I was beating off? Of course I get my assignments done. And if not, I have succinct documented reasons why not during iteration retrospective. That seems a bit beyond bad work ethic if they aren't doing that. That should result in termination. Which, as I type this, I'm...

    Selfish mini tangent: what does this stuff look like? As I sit here perusing the internet during work hours, I can't help but think, do I have bad work ethics?

    There has been no confirmation of async trade for 3.27. Given its reception in PoE2 0.3, I think the general assumption is quite reasonable. That said, I'm not sure I want it now. Sure is great as a buyer, not so much as a seller on the low end. Perhaps I'm overestimating how much I get from...

    I'll have to play more, I didn't put much time into PoE2's 0.3 endgame, but I didn't see many people listing with non-async. As a buyer, why wouldn't you eventually just filter it out?

    That hype train sure is getting off to a slow start. Did anyone figure out how to deal async trade and rotating dump tabs? The former pretty much killed the latter. I'm not going to pick up most loot if I have to manually price it.

    What is your testing setup? This seems like the sort of thing that integration testing should have caught. Automated, as in it run regularly enough that no one would even think to request it run, or semi automated and it's part of a required checklist before any related software is released...

    To play devil's advocate, in order: grep! idk, the repo I work in most of the time is a giant mono repo that is approaching 20GB in size. Asking any IDE to have intellisense worth a damn is not feasible. gdb! But also, the system I work on most of the time is a custom modification of python...

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

    How do you test this feature? AI is difficult enough to test as is, dynamically generating a UI seems too far in that direction. I have a friend that works in AI research and to test the output of their AI, they use other AIs as baselines. o_O

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

    Have LLMs gotten cheap enough to do that? IIRC, you'd have to retrain the model every time you change the software in a way that's UI and/or documentation facing.

    What's going to change in how we interact with computers and applications? Aside from removing/disabling/ignoring, if possible, the AI integrated into everything? I'm almost to the point where every google search is suffixed with "-ai" by muscle memory.

    Last Epoch

    I'm somewhat conflicted on this. I've spent enough over the years to get PoE2 EA for free. But I haven't given GGG anything since 2023 when it became apparent PoE2 development was hampering PoE1. All that to say: it's been a while since I felt that genuine "support the devs" feeling. I've...

    I still read log files manually. It's a lost art. Gotta keep a robust yet non-retarded editor just for that. Too many "modern" ones choke themselves to death trying to parse your log and send it to some linter.

    Yes, it's not PoE1 mapping. I meant that they are implementing PoE1 mapping fixes to PoE2 problems. It's gonna be really hard to not see that similarity when it happens.
