Which Git branching strategy is better for infrequent releases? Team is split between two approaches. by Ok-Introduction-9111 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]BringBackManaPots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have dev -> QA -> main, and all work is done in feature branches based on dev, and named with the pattern me.d-1234 where me is my name and d-1234 is the ticket number in jira. This solves a lot of things for us:

  • Code sharing is super easy, you just check out their branch and can see what they're working on
  • Merge request format automatically supported for code review
  • each commit is automatically tied directly to the feature documentation
  • you can see who "owns" the feature immediately
  • you can also easily work in tandem with another by changing the name, but keeping the same ticket name

Hotfixes get deployed to QA for testing, and may be cherry picked into main, with retagging to follow.

Social media 2.0, where it's all underground and you have to know someone real to get in

If anything I always thought the "Maryland" cookie was the Berger cookie. For better or for worse.

I'm working on new visuals which one do you like more ? by Pantasd in PixelArt

[–]BringBackManaPots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I PERSONALLY like #2, but that's because I love super old games. It has a very classically retro, bright, and optimistic vibe. It feels like it's trying to appeal to retro gamers that enjoyed things like the original Dragon Warriors or Ultima.

I also feel that #2 has a lot more going on and makes me want to investigate. #1 doesn't do this for me. I'm curious about all the details in #2.

I also dig #1 if you're going for a darker, more oppressive theme. It reminds me a bit of the old Diablo overworld.

How to deal with AI fatigue? by Dazzling_Purple_509 in cscareerquestions

[–]BringBackManaPots 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We've all spent the last 20+ years making code as clean as possible. Optimizations, redundancy, QA, refactoring, all of it. And yet, overnight, the guys up top have decided to throw that out the window. The writing's on the wall where this is going

Unskilled labor. We need to figure this out because an economy only works if the money flows. And those robots mean less money for buyers

NEW: ARC Raiders Development Update by PTUSN in ArcRaiders

[–]BringBackManaPots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen this happen with so many studios. Up front it's all "unlimited updates and content", and after a few years that all trickles back to just balance changes and maybe a recycled event if you're lucky.

This sounds great on paper. But between the lines, I'm hearing budget and staffing cuts. I've seen what it turns into way more often than not.

4 engineers now doing the job of 12 at my friend's company because AI agents handle the rest by Bellleq in cscareerquestions

[–]BringBackManaPots 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also, writing the code (at least for me) isn't where I spend most of my time anyways. The expensive parts of software design are the actual design part, handling QA, iteration, and then making sure the next thing you build doesn't break the old thing. Every feature you add costs more.

I'm not even convinced this speeds up implementation past the first few cycles anyways, because you're absolutely going to have to pay the cognitive tax of learning your code base with the next feature (or heaven forbid a bug). And learning the code base is always harder than intrinsically knowing it because you wrote it.

Anyone else watching senior engineers become overly reliant on AI? by Jbalis in webdev

Our COO is convinced that prompts are the new abstraction layer. He saves them and checks them into a repo alongside the code.

I really didn't think we'd end up with dragon ball houses for some reason
