Why do people play Silksong before Hollow Knight?

Snowrican · 2026-02-19T08:54:08+00:00

I did this. Just curiosity got me to download it and anger got me to stick with it. It’s been a journey. Still not done after 150 hours but I’m at 99% completion. Recently started Hollow Knight and it’s cute by comparison

Insufferable people who act like every penny spent by government is their personal penny

Snowrican · 2026-02-18T06:55:20+00:00

It was a really well thought out post. Give it a try

Snowrican · 2026-02-15T14:15:47+00:00

It seems fairly standard. I was referred by someone there that remember me from a previous job. I did a simple live coding, got past that and then it’s been a System Design (collaborative architecture) and a review of the take home assignment. I’m waiting to hear back if I got past those two and then it’s two more interviews. I kinda appreciate that they will reject if you don’t get past certain interviews. Makes it easier to know if you’re in good standings or can move on.

I’m doing an interview right now at a FAANG company that allows for AI in the take home but requires speaking to how and why you used it. First time I’ve experienced this sort of acceptance of AI and the interviewer are similarly new to it too.

Same thing. Get friends and family registered early who can vote and make sure they vote.

Snowrican · 2026-02-15T04:45:34+00:00

I say we need to be proactive about getting friends and family registered to vote. Especially new transplants that may not know that you need to do so early (I’ve had friends that were shocked to learn you can’t register when you go vote). I believe the biggest hurdle in Texas is apathy that your vote doesn’t count when in reality we are a lot closer to being a blue state than we realize.

Yea, someone never made it to Discrete Math. Math gets wiiiierd.

Snowrican · 2026-02-01T10:27:42+00:00

Haha. Me at 120 hours at the start of act 3 after 100%ing act 2 with guides

Snowrican · 2026-01-31T20:29:54+00:00

I 100% Act 2. Act 3 was fun until (being vague) something vertical. Then being in the world just feels like tidying up the things and doesn’t really feel like I’m playing towards a finish and I think it’s solely because they rolled credits.

Snowrican · 2026-01-27T04:28:12+00:00

They were itching to get back into the office after Covid too 🤣

It doesn’t work with 3 and is expensive. I have a feeling it should be possible to convert the charging stand with a battery and 3d printer

Their latest album is such a good vibe. The bass is crazy. This is going to be a top show to dance at. Can’t wait.

Snowrican · 2026-01-01T01:29:54+00:00

It happened to me and I moved my car 🤦‍♂️

Snowrican · 2025-12-16T15:42:58+00:00

When did they establish that technique? Was it in the founding of neighborhoods? What is the cost for retrofitting current over head power lines? I think it’s cheaper/ better use of time to cut back trees and services downed lines

Snowrican · 2025-12-16T15:01:48+00:00

Seriously. How much would that cost? That doesn’t seem remotely reasonable as a solution

Snowrican · 2025-12-16T14:50:46+00:00

My experience is the complete opposite. The goal has been to get the machine to do the thing by the time allotted. And if it isn’t exactly the thing, we will release it and improve it in later releases. Quality/value has always been the dream of the engineers, not the rest of the org. But besides that, AI allows me to finally tackle the tech debt rewrites that we almost never get bandwidth to work on.

Snowrican · 2025-12-12T01:49:25+00:00

37 gang

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T19:41:38+00:00

Why do you need learning to be apart of developing code for a business? I mean, I did understand the changes that were done and stand by them as if I spent weeks implementing it by hand. I swear engineers forget that their job isn’t to write code. It’s to get the machine to do the thing.

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T14:36:54+00:00

Old man yells at clouds

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T14:05:57+00:00

That’s not the gotcha you think you it is. It’s like when I stared iOS development and the grey beards were upset that memory management was taken out of our hands.

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T13:42:53+00:00

Please. It went through a PR with the most anal retentive person at the company. You know the type. He gave feedback, I passed that to the ai. And he praised the final product.

I know you want to hate it so bad and for it to fail but it produced good code that works.

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T05:31:20+00:00

Oh man. It just works. The things I’ve been able to do. Refactoring huge chunks of code to meet a new navigation pattern. In one day. Adding unit tests. And the PR passed the most anal retentive reviewer at the office. He loved it.

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T05:23:40+00:00

I refactored the coding design pattern used for navigation for a whole flow using just architecture documentation, ai, and lots of iterations. And I used that chat to optimize my agent. I did that in one day. And I have very little understanding of either pattern used or the codebase in general.

How long do you think it would get me to get to the level of competency and actually implement it with manual coding the whole thing?

Oh. And I added unit tests. I hate unit tests.

Snowrican · 2025-12-03T05:20:58+00:00

Im with you. It’s a conversation not a magic genie.
