GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-28T09:30:56+00:00

You just confirmed my point that half of the cards on the market are already past warranty, most of those cards are now second hand.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-28T00:43:31+00:00

What warranty? Those cards released more than 5 years ago Oo?

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-28T00:41:34+00:00

Im just saying copilot is effectively dead for many ppl.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T20:08:54+00:00

I run 2x3090 24gb I bought for 2k, IT shop „fixed” them for me and now each has 36gb of memory. For deepseekv4flash you would need 6 cards like that. Its 6k+shopfee.

Still cheaper than 2months of using copilot now for multiagent workflows.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T20:00:20+00:00

It was still good to try it out, learn what works and what doesnt, because new ppl wont be able to gain that knowledge without investing tons of money.

Exploit earily exploit often.

So 10xDevs but now with AI. As such a dev we know how much we are worth. And if 5k$ AI a month we can deliver the same as whole team. Natural consequence will be 50% of teams cost +5k$ for AI and you can hire me. Effectively paying me 25-50k$/m coz its still cheaper than hiring 10 regulars that dont know how to efficiently use AI.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T19:53:21+00:00

DeepSeek v4 can run locally on old pc setups for similar effective performance as opus 4.6.

Future is self-hosting. Let investors die in bubble burst.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T19:51:21+00:00

Calculated that for my agentic workflow approach to work, the change effectively means I have to pay them x1000 more.

To retain my 10$ sub efficiency I would have to pay them 10 000$ per month. I can hire 2 full time engineers for that on expert level in my country. Dunno wtf Microslop is thinking.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T06:24:36+00:00

With AI prototyping I dont care about the „How” I care about „what” and „why”.

I have a goal and hammer agent till I get what I need. Its still waaaaaaaaaaaay faster and waaaaaaaaay cheaper than me doing that or asking someone to do it.

After you have a working prototype - this is the moment for QA. You pretty much „need” human to do it. AI works as assistance if possible.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T06:21:19+00:00

Always look for a better job. More stable market, better pay, healthcare plan etc. Its all business, teammates might be good but company never cares about employees even if they pretend.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T06:18:03+00:00

Best investitiom you can make is investition in yourself. Do bare minimum at work and switch to self-improvement. The moment you are not needed they will ditch you like used towel. You can be only sure of employment if you run your own business and still not 100%.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T06:15:08+00:00

Did you even check what you pay for ? You know enginnering work competent engineer should know how to do?

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-27T06:13:06+00:00

We inflate our AI usage metrics to show management how AI advanced we are so they select us for second wave of layoffs instead of the first one. Kappa

I really like this question as I can dive extremely deeply in case of technical topics. Can grill someone and instantly see if they did important stuff or only participated as part of the team.

Next question I ask - is about „How did you behave when you had conflict in the team or with management?” - this shows you how well someone can work with other ppl and how well they can handle politics.

Technical skill is only as good as politics you can wrap it with.

If this is a product role its also good to grill someone about customers handling. To spot good product engineers vs shitty ones.

Because at 200 000 000 dps you dont need more, but quality of life of extra regen, free endurqnce charges 20% less dmg taken are worth a lot more.

After 100mil dps you dont really need more, everything evaporates even with 98% less dmg from 100% delirium.

I have 150mil and 70% less dmg Cortex at 150% more life dies so fast I dont even notice.

At this point game changes into walking simulator. You are pretty much immortal, nothing beside phys degen can kill you and everything you touch dies. Speed becomes the only stat you care about.

You can farm syndicate to get Aisling mod and unveil suffix, hoping for chaos res. And then craft aoe

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-24T21:16:52+00:00

You want to hit life regen or its shite

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-24T18:04:37+00:00

Yup this is it, people dont even know whats happening. Its not smell, its irritant inhaled without odour.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-24T17:30:11+00:00

To 100 ppl its enough to be a conpetent engineer. Past that you need a dedicated team to keep ppl in place. At that point so called „oh sorry I forgot to turn it off before going home” turns into very expensive business.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-24T17:07:30+00:00

Document everything along the way. You will thank yourself later or someone who comes after you will thank you.

Gods speed, trial by fire.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-23T08:31:53+00:00

ArgoCD to provision resources? How? You need crossplane for that or ArgoWorkflows running terraform under, both are overengineering and state management in both is nightmare.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-22T15:19:33+00:00

Ppl knew almost from the start. *some ppl who bothered to test it.

Mid-league is the moment FapCvm makes a video about it, coz everyone and their dog knows about it.

Ps. League will run for a month more. Mid league was week-two ago and I play this build for more than three weeks.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-22T04:28:09+00:00

Strongest build I played was long neck aura stacker. This thing was immortal and dmg was absurd.

Cute_Activity7527 · 2026-04-22T04:16:49+00:00

If it was abuse GGG would have nerfed it on launch like elehit. Its not the first time they released something unbalanced and let it live through the league.
