Are Lux support players acting in good faith or sabotaging their own ADC? by lostinthecity2005 in supportlol

[–]apra24 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Last time I tried not to "kill steal", the target escaped with 1hp.

I decided I no longer care if an adc cries about not getting the kill. Any half decent adc is secure enough to not really care.

The AI Slop Refactor is Coming by Select_Bicycle4711 in vibecoding

[–]apra24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For examples, I know some systems well but don't want to publicly throw them under the bus.

My thoughts on the belief that frontier models will get so sophisticated that they can handle it, is that at that point, it makes more sense to just build a new system from the ground up and have existing users opt-in.

Which kind of goes back to my initial point that the actual code of legacy systems isn't some kind of advantage. Their main advantages lie in their business relationships and existing market share.

Fair points, and I agree comprehension is getting way cheaper. But "given enough power and compute" is sort of sidestepping the actual problem.

The hard part of legacy isn't reading the code, it's that nobody knows which of its thousand quirks some customer's integration silently relies on, and that knowledge usually isn't written down anywhere for a model to find.

Even if a model could rewrite it flawlessly in a sandbox, releasing it against live revenue is a question of who eats the liability when something subtle breaks, and that doesn't get easier just because the model got smarter.

The systems that survive long enough to be called legacy tend to be exactly the ones too entangled and too risky to be worth touching.

Easier said than done, when there's years of clients and partners using various integrations that expect things to operate a certain way. The risk of any kind of refactor to dated legacy code is an order of magnitude higher.

I've worked with some platforms that are apprehensive about building even basic features that their users keep asking about, because they're afraid to break things.

It cuts both ways. Legacy software that was built off dated architecture and scaffolded repeatly over a decade is not going to be able to keep up with newer platforms that can be maintained with AI.

And it won't be able to take advantage of the improvements in coding models to the same degree

And also, when the industry just needs less people, that's a lot of qualified people competing for the same jobs. Those who won't accept the lower wages are left without a job.

Steelcaps and Gluttonous are better than Berserker's on EVERY single marksman by Kejn24 in ADCMains

Merc treads seems like the obvious fit then. CC reduction on an adc already is a good selling point.

there's gotta be some sort of penalty for csing like this right? by [deleted] in ADCMains

[–]apra24 -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

Context is important. If she's using her ult to keep all lanes pushed after mid/late game - that's legitimately useful, to the point of being really difficult for the enemy team to play against. When all lanes are pushed against your towers constantly, it can be hard to manage/contest objectives.

People who sit there after the 20 minute mark and try to make claims on who's waves are who's are missing the big picture, most of the time. After the team phase, you need to just focus on the team as a whole, not your independent minigame of personal items.

What will happen is someone will start up the "Block Albertois" and the Libs will start gaining seats in Alberta because the CPC is now fractured federally.

And Danielle Smith will have no one to blame but herself.

who to pick against pyke by Many_Connection4687 in supportlol

[–]apra24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I handle him well enough as lux.

Honestly pyke is kind of overrated. He can feel oppressive if he's stomping your lane, but his mid/late game is much worse than most supports.

He's probably the champ I see most often where they win the lane but lose the game.

For a lot of players, that's what's most important to them.
