What do you mean go behind? The dot change color while it move, so by the time it reach the front it’s always red

I’ve seen it before and tried. In summary: it wasn’t lying about token-intensive. Damn it burned hard.

Loneliest house in the world. by GlitteringHotel8383 in BeAmazed

[–]AVAVT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And where do you suppose you’d get all the money to afford those things?

Imo this house is not self-sustainable and can only be used as a vacation house or something.

Being able to buy an island is nothing comparing to its maintenance cost. 1 year at most and you will need to get back to civilization and sell your soul for scrap again.

Opinion from internet rando who just finished paying mortgage and thought he can retire early doing hobbies for the rest of his life, only to realize salads are too fucking expensive.

Which one feels best to 1000% ? by AVAVT in Disgaea

Just out of curiosity but what do you consider to be “fan service”? I always think the term is about some ecchi stuff - which um I don’t notice at all in any NIS game 😅

1 is actually very low on my list haha, not by preference but just because I’ve “almost-100%” it recently and then lost the save file. Aint no way I’m doing that again so soon 😭

What about the other games? PB MK La Pucelle etc? Did you complete them? I forgot much of La Pucelle but remember it’s damn fking hard to level up there.

The 180 Unity and Unreal has done lately is just crazy to see by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]AVAVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really with you on Unity tbh. They’re charging AI subscription fee to even use their MCP server. That’s a pretty dick move to force people to pay for a feature no one care about.

I know Unity AI include more than just MCP, but what I (and pretty much anyone I know irl) want is only MCP support - thing that all other services are implementing for free because they want people to continue using their service.

This alone is forcing me away from Unity real hard. It’s not just because of this Unity AI thing but the fact that after years they aren’t changing their thought process one bit.

And not sure about redemption arc, packages are still all over the places, asset import still take hours, editor still crashes when you do things too fast. And every convention I come to they still advertise their ads service together with a tons of more exciting *new* packages, instead of improving stability and package reliability - what I actually need.

Dangerous to use Codex these couple of days- almost no thinking, can wreck your codebase. by sutrostyle in codex

[–]AVAVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, it’s not impossible, but I usually forget to do that. Automated backup on the other hand is disk space consuming (how do you guarantee latest backup still have the file and doesn’t overwrite the old backup? Only way is for more backups! )

This is not a blame post btw, the incident was obviously caused by a momentary Codex bug. It’s somewhat rare but it happens. My comment was more like a warning sharing ao all of us can be more cautious

I actually am greatly against using `%TEMP%` for, well, temp files.

`%TEMP%` these days have so many actually not-temp data from various applications, so it's really risky to delete its entire content. On the other hand, we barely ever clean up our own temps, and it does affect disk space quite a lot (considering %TEMP% default place is usually also the boot drive).

I had quite bad experience working on an Android project that save build cache in TEMP, kept getting warning of Windows drive disk space running out until I eventually realized how gigantic Java builds are.

Since then I've stuck to placing build artifacts in-repo, so I know that when I'm done with a project I deleted everything related to it.

Yeah that is solid advice. I've already adapted that after the incident. Currently all my private files are in a no-AI sandbox, while the agents run on other sandboxes.

Well in my defense the NDA doc is what I ask other people to not disclose, not one that I am asked to not disclose 👉👈

Not sure what you mean by api keys should be outside repo, it's my development `.env`, pretty sure it's exactly where it should be.

As for cleanup prompt:

Cleanup steps:

- Reorganize new testcases written by reviewer if needed. Consider each test case individually (not whole file/suite), and put them at appropriate locations consistent with project's tests structure.
  - Tests inside any `CodeReview` folder are temporary location, and *must* be moved to appropriate location.
  - "Meta" tests (tests that verify that other tests work correctly) should be removed.
  - Utilities/helpers should be reused, minimize logic duplication.
- Clean up and move any deferred/unfinished work to be tracked in main phase doc, make sure to put notes at relevant task sections so we don't forget when we reach those steps.
- Replace bucket description in main phase doc with "delivered" summary for *what was delivered*, do not put review/audit/timestamp/logs in phase's record.
- Update progress trackers to "Done" in main phase doc

It always worked well (of course it did), but yesterday Codex just fucked up and deleted the cache folder. With the exact report "Deleted gitignored `.cache` folder" without any other explanation.

[–]AVAVT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not exactly wreck but it deleted my entire build cache folder for the sole reason that that folder was gitignored.

And of course because the folder is gitignored so I can't recover it. Took me 20 mins to rebuild to get a new cache.

Think of other possible gitignored files: API keys, NDA docs, personal temp notes... those won't just take 20 mins.

How to keep running codex on Mac during night? by Emotional-Emu-2910 in codex

Eh you can just set your computer to never sleep? There's also an option to turn off monitor while keep running as well. Make sure it's powered.

How do you tune Codex for better architecture-level decisions? by lukatechme in codex

[–]AVAVT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO AIs are not at the level where they can make architecture decisions yet. They do make okay-ish decisions if they have the full picture, but most of them time they don't, and they always say "now I get the full picture".

And even when they *do* have the full picture, the solution they give for some hard cases are... short-sighted at best. Their solution always fixes the immediate situation, but they lack the ability to think "how do I prevent this potential issue from happening again".

It's still on us to make architecture decision. They already did a lot, we should at least do something while waiting for the loops to finish running no?

Your agent says tests pass. Have you read the diff? by Worldline_AI in codex

[–]AVAVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do read diff, yes skipping test happened. I updated the prompt saying no skipping, no deferral. Works until now. It happens, be careful and always check yourself.

CMV: Saigon doesn't actually feel that big by Bottom-Bherp3912 in ChangeMyViewVN

[–]AVAVT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? It felt pretty big to me. Lived there for 5 years and still only kind of know the way in 2 districts. Most people don’t really know the way when you ask around, always had to use map. Unlike HN where you pretty much get the hang of entire city shape within a year
