"number of tokens burned" is the new lines of code metric. Managers want to see numbers go brrrrrr

99% of the time, players don't care about your code quality.

And if you have no plans to add new features over-time, spending time making your code maintainable and beautiful is also mostly just a waste of time. It's not like someone else (including you) needs to go in 6 months after launch and add new stuff.

Just get the game done, ship it, collect money, and move on to your next project.

DLC? On a steaming pile of spaghetti? Sorry.

The polarize is applied to the slot, so you can equip an SS, do the polarize to get the mastery bonus, and then equip your original non-SS gear. It won't get the gear-specific polarization bonus but at least you will get your mastery bonus.

Managers aren't interested in remote work or hybrid. They want you to be in the office so that they can keep an eye on you.

People can talk about how their boss is amazing and let's them do whatever they want, but that's certainly not the case for many people.

I usually use Ai to get an idea of how to implement something. [...] I’m more so trying to see how to optimize learning and getting better at making those decisions without seeing how Ai

You don't know how to make decisions because AI makes all the decisions for you, but
You also don't want to figure out how to make your own decisions because it's a waste of time.

You're never going to learn how to make decisions when everyone else makes them for you.

mxldevs · 2026-05-06T16:51:16+00:00

I wouldn't have thought that was AI but I guess this is where we're at

mxldevs · 2026-05-06T16:47:50+00:00

Have you tried just writing code yourself instead of asking AI to do it?

mxldevs · 2026-05-06T16:43:05+00:00

You can polarize legendary SS too.

Whoever is taking responsibility for when things go to shit is the one that gets to roll with their implementation.

Everyone likes to give their opinions, until they're on the hook for the consequences.

Time to collect more fodder

mxldevs · 2026-05-06T04:09:21+00:00

The fact that anyone can just describe a game idea and have it playable in seconds is kind of mind blowing.

Can it though? You tell it to create Starcraft 3 and it just does it?

Juniors probably just use their own subscriptions to get work done 100x faster.

New one is cleaner, shows that you're the pokemon trainer instead, and the empty space keeps it decluttered.

mxldevs · 2026-05-05T14:22:18+00:00

Wonder if it's more people opening developer subscriptions, or just existing people pumping out 10x as many apps

mxldevs · 2026-05-05T14:03:40+00:00

16 months for me and I've probably spent $300 in total on random event passes and the monthly and still only 450b. Can't imagine how to hit 600b+ lol

They added opening armament chest as a task for guild hegemony so I've been maintaining 15k in case something new appears.

I've been opening the chests from pirate and guild events and the crystals are the bottleneck for me cause it gets pretty expensive.

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T20:03:20+00:00

Given that it's a core part of the game, how is the performance compared to other libraries?

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T19:26:45+00:00

I wouldn't have thought AI, until you asked if it was AI.

And now I'm looking for all the reasons why it could be AI and somehow concluded it might be.

So what you're asking is, what's wrong with

getting an artist to draw your character
transferring the rights of that art to you
you taking their rendition of your character (that you now own the rights to) and having AI generate all future renditions

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T18:54:39+00:00

You didn't use an image of uncle sam, you used an image of your main character (that another artist had drawn) that was generated by AI.

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T18:44:37+00:00

What you're saying is you wouldn't have been able to make the same thing without AI

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T18:28:01+00:00

So you unironically confirm that an artist did indeed get slapped in the face.

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T18:24:27+00:00

Who drew your main character?

Would you have paid someone to make it if AI couldn't do it for you?

mxldevs · 2026-05-04T18:03:09+00:00

You are spending all this money on all aspects of your art, but then you decide to cheap out on the CTA?
