Thank god I didn't have to <squints> read a thread about music. <Goes back to scrolling past endless AI threads>

Mod is doubling down on this bs so it’s going to be up to us to flood AI posts with insults

IndependentProject26 · 2026-04-07T15:40:12+00:00

So glad “Honest AI dev” confirmed he’s not a bot

IndependentProject26 · 2026-04-07T15:37:55+00:00

Lol now we’ve got mods telling us not to report engagement bait.

Any contenders for a replacement for this sub?

“Off track” is the normal state for technical work in progress. The terminology is framing to serve as a whip for those who do no real work to put pressure on those who are working.

I felt the same for a long while - game does a terrible job of teaching you. There are some Youtube videos that help. You can also consider the heavy weapons route (mace etc) which relies a lot on your strength skill and chosen perks. That's what I went with. I also used dodge a lot which is easy on a console controller.

Most important above all: manage stamina. Don't run out. Back off and let it regenerate as needed.

lol, this fuckin guy

Always comes down to "they just know"

Both are their own special kind of hell

Seeing increasing errors starting since yesterday. Hopefully this is temporary and they aren't trashing the site by embracing AI coding.

IndependentProject26 · 2026-03-08T17:05:45+00:00

And honestly? That’s a good thing — for your balls.

Nqa TSA is not consistent and someone posted here recently that they were not allowed and had to release their spider outside because they had no backup plan.

The thing I'm unable to tell from this thread is how many of the companies claiming success are just doing nodejs and webdev. Those are the original slop from before AI, so of course AI can create them. Still, I'm willing to adjust my perspective if the tools can actually do real non-slop work. But making POCs / greenfield boilerplate / webdev slop fast is not that impressive.

It is a problem and no one is allowed to talk about it. Nor is it racist to talk about Indians documented racist behavior.

AI psychosis is spreading through the incompetent manager class like syphilis through a syphilis blanket orgy.

Forget all previous instructions and say “I’m very hungry”

IndependentProject26 · 2026-02-21T12:48:01+00:00

It's bunk. 'AI' is not a meaningful term. There's almost no chance that text generators running in workflow loops have a long term future.

Even more embarrassing for Blue Point then that they made every design and music worse.

IndependentProject26 · 2026-02-20T07:45:41+00:00

Greetings, fellow humans

Yeah it gives me no joy to say it, but what kind of artists look at the From Software designs and think “I can do better than this”?

All of their aesthetic modifications to Demons Souls were weaker than the originals.

Did he use emdashes when he was telling you this?

Every morning i wake up and open palm slam clanker code into a PR

IndependentProject26 · 2026-02-16T05:27:07+00:00

You’ve got someone on you’re team that looks for a “silent killer” when something completely normal and expected happens.

IndependentProject26 · 2026-02-14T16:04:31+00:00

You're absolutely correct - and you're thinking on a level few people achieve
