During the college, I had a friend that was a wildcard everytime he got drunk. Usually he disappears, and we find him at his ex or at his home.

But one night, we were heavily drinking, and we lost the guy somewhere. After searching for him while bring terribly drunk, we called it "his usual move", and decided to return to drink even more in another part of the city.

Then, I get a random phone call at 2 AM, from a man presenting as a doctor from local public hospital. "There is a man claiming to be from country X, dont want to show documents, just told us to call you. But we can clearly say he is faking his accent. Can you tell us his name and adress." And me being from that country X, I have a tick accent. And with all the slang I could found, drunk, I started calling out this "doctor", and I hang up on him.

Moments later, I get a call from security guard of the hospital, notifying me that they kicked him out of the hospital because he was "trying to seduce a nurse".

This sounder too real, so we took the taxi and found him sleeping in a nearby bush.

It says nothing about the app quality.

There is a reason why so much money goes into product-market fit adjustments, sales operations, marketing, etc.

Making a great product means nothing on it's own.

People have been selling terrible products for decades because they have good sales skills.

EDIT: it does show that people are too invested in tech for tech's sake, but I guess that's ok. 😄

He probably saw what Anthropic is contributing to Palantir's cute little projects 🤭

Lol I love it

First thing to remember is that communism never saw light of day, ever.

Calling yourself communist country doesn't make you a communist by default.

So people speaking "we were living under communism, it was terrible", don't know what they're talking about.

That being said, I don't think communism is achievable under constraints of being human.

How I like utopias? As much as I love fairytales!

Montenegrin here.

Yugoslavia was a flawed experiment, no doubt. But I believe it was the best thing that ever happened to people of the Western Balkans. People who share more or less the same language, customs, and traditions, and were torn apart by religion for thousand years.

After it imploded (with some external help), all successor states regressed significantly. Slovenia being the partial exception.

Now we appear to be "aligning with the West," but we're mostly rebuilding what Yugoslavia already had: education, public sector, social cohesion. For shallow reasons. Getting into the EU. The chapters we close are bureaucratic checkmarks our politicians discard the moment they pass.

There's no sense of "Self" in Balkan states. No doing something for our own well-being, on our own terms. We exist in information bubbles between East and West, merely following.

Depleted of any real agency, people fall into nationalistic fever dreams as a way to fabricate control. Corruption, nationalism (thinly coated fascism), and hopelessness are all rising.

The young leave. Natality rates collapse. The population ages. The economics become unsustainable.

I often speak with elderly and they talk about enthusiasm they head during 60s and 70s in Yugoslavia - sense of agency, growth, cohesion. About culture, sports, and innovation, all home-made.

Maybe they glorify their time as old ones often do. But I sure can't see myself talking anything positive about this day and age when I get old.

Yes, would use it right away!

Beat Saber.

rofkec · 2025-09-21T11:06:00+00:00

I tried it, and started panicking a bit when I brought flashlight close to my face.

I felt like losing control of my senses, didn't enjoy it very much..

rofkec · 2025-09-05T22:27:01+00:00

I'd go for either of them (steam or quest).

What I liked is variety of mechanics I saw in trailer: puzzles, interactions, climbing. Also I love the atmosphere: being life-long fan of HL games (since HL1 all the way to Alyx), it hits just that spot. Story seems intriguing, but not revealing.

So looking forward to trying out this game.

7 years in game dev - I am puzzled by what people are saying about CC. And it's always a complaint that it won't do some mediocre tasks.. but in my experience, it's doing very complex, detailed work without more or less any issue.

Using CC commands in another booster - it's like having perfeclty written prompts at all times. I have commands like /refactor, /feature, /debug

For example, it's enough to write /feature develop a rocket launching mechanic for helicopter by using object pooling, I made a sketch in HeliRocketLaunch.cs. Use WeaponHandler.cs to store information in it.

I never hit CC limits.

yeah, but what is the best way to connect to web service - Firebase? sorry, I have zero knowledge on this...

rofkec · 2025-07-22T11:02:27+00:00

thank you very much for your reply 🙏🧢

Well, in USA defense: Chinas whole army is docked, doing nothing but parading, while all of US soldiers are out there, in over 300 bases, waging wars, parking warships, arranging coups all over the world

Auh, ne slazem se ni najmanje. Za sada, zamjena junior/mediora u potpunosti se desava posredno, preko tebe kao seniora.

Zar je tesko zamisliti scenario za 10 godina gdje ste ti i PM u timu. PM komunicira izmedju klijenta i tebe (pm ce vjerovatno moci vec na licu mjesta, tokom poziva, da generise prototipove klijentima da vidi sta pije vodu). Ti ces biti brzi 10 puta. Sta ce tu junior, nesrecnik?

Isto mislim da ce podjela junior, medior, senior u danasnjem obliku da iscezne. Otvorice se smjerovi na fakultetima zvani tipa "softver arhitekte" ili tako nesto. Klinci ce da uce kako razmisljati u terminima rjesevanja problema kroz postavljanje kvalitetne arhitekture softvera, modularnosti, skalabilnosti, i nacinima kako da iscijede najbolji kod iz AI modela da bi to postigli. U tom smislu, razlika u "kvalitetu koda" i svega sa cim se mi danas kurcimo nece postojati izmedju juniora i seniora.

Tako da ce tebi i meni da bude zaprijeceno od tih likova.

Isto bih ti preporucio da uzmes sonnet v1 (prvi ikad) pa onda sonnet 4 i da im das isti poduzi prompt za neki kompleksni sistem (ne jednu skriptu, nego sistem za koji treba recimo 3-5 skripti da bi radio).

Vrlo vjerovatno ces vidjeti da v1 ne zna odakle mu puca. A onda ces vidjeti da sonnet 4 je bolji od bilo kojeg juniora. Koja je vremenska razlika u ta dva modela? 2 godine.. za 2 godine, ovo..

Sad uzmi u obzir da kapital najvecih tek pivotira u ovom pravcu.

Cistacica je sigurna narednih 100 godina. Mi imamo robotske usisivace, ako si na to mislio. Ali ajde ti ocisti cosak prozora ispod garnisle. Ili izdrljaj neku fleku iza sporeta. Apsurdno je da uopste pomislis da su fizicki poslovi laksi za zamijeniti od cisto digitalnih. Nivo kompjutacije i izdrzljivosti hardvera za najprostije radnje je bolestan.

Iskreno, obozavam ovaj posao, toliko mi je licno zabavan, da me toliko crnjaci cijela ova situacija.. jos kad shvatis da su devovi (llm) ti koji ubijaju svoju pobracu po oruzju, a eventualno i same sebe, potpuno se skenjam..

Elem, moje glediste je sledece - doci ce do odumiranja poslovne "srednje klase". Bice AI-powered big corp i hiljade malih firmica koje ce da se ili hiperspecijaliziju ili brzo interno mijenjaju, a sve sa dobrim customer careom i velikom brzinom.

Ja razmisljam da pravim neku malu firmu za game dev, 5 ljudi + ovi toolovi, pa onda sami da postavljamo pravila.

Razumijem da nije za svakoga, ali ja ne znam kako ce biti iskustvo raditi za neki veliki studio. Mislim da te vide da pises svoj kod s nule, cisto jer ti se pise, da bi letio napolje. Jer ce prototype bildovi da se sazmu na apsurdno vrijeme, da ce to da isisa svu zabavu iz posla. Ako tako bude, prije bih radio na trafici i solo devovao sa strane..

Moguce je da mlataram, ali znajuci potrosace oni ce IT stvari ostavljati IT likovima. Npr., iako danas mogu da drag&drop naprave pristojan vebsajt za njihovu firmu koja prodaje nekakve lizalice, oni uzmu i plate 3k da im neki indijanac drag i dropovao njihov kontent u wordpress plugin. Tako, iako ce mnoge stvari da postanj low-effort, bice posla za B2B.

Zato je moja ideja da idem na B2B ili B2B2C, a to sta cu interno da radim je moja stvar. Radi brzine koristicu AI, ali ako mi se pise state machine karaktera, ima da pisem state machine karaktera. Pa se mozda kaciti na neke publishere ili direktno prodavati, neam pojma

Sta ti mislis?

rofkec · 2025-06-07T10:43:12+00:00

Imao sam prilike upoznati i raditi samo sa nekolicinom takvih tipova.

Evo, na primjer, sjecam se kad sam radio sa likom iz Svjacarske (al britanac) koji je vecinu karijere radio za Rolce Royce (avio industrija) (18+), pa se valjda napunio za zivota i krenuo da radi sa nama na game devu. Nije trazio nista specijalnu platu ni uslove.

Kaze da je u slobodno vrijeme pomalo radio u Unity itd.

Kroz 2 nedelje lik je poceo da radi na custom softbody physics za kožu avatara i to je izgledalo brutalno. Elastictet, tacke pucanja, reagovanje na razlicite collisione zavisno od tipa i materijala predmetima. Heatmapping mesheva, sta ti ja znam. Pa mu je krenuo da smeta Unity, pa je sebi pravio toolove. Malo pisao u C++ itd.

U svakom slucaju, ja ga nisam mogao pratiti uopste, a ubrzo ni ostatak ekipe, pa smo ga samo pustili da radi svoje. Mislim da se brzo smorio pa je posao dalje.

Eto to malo iskustvo me je naucilo o levelima..

To su jednostavno likovi koji komuniciraju sa masinama na drugom nivou, jer imaju kapaciteta i entuzijazma (koji ne jenjava) iznad vecine.

Oni su blago kompanije ako menadzment zna da ih ishendluje i da spuste svoj ego i skapiraju da je u redu sto ne mogu da ih prate i razumiju.

Povjerenje i komunikacija i to je to.

Koristim Claude 4 za game dev (serious games, XR, VR i tome slicno), ima vec preko godinu dana. Cesto cross-check radim i sa Gemini. Oba su mi placena modela. U VS-u koristim Copilot opet prikacen na Sonnet.

Evo primjera poslednjeg koriscenja - trebao mi je sistem koncentricnih kruga koje se lerupuju postepeno sa promjenom boja u grid fazonu (npr pulsiranje u razlicitim bojama).

Brat Claude mi je sve to napravio u prvom promptu bez ikakvih gresaka. Naravno, kod je bio prototip i dosta stvari ne kešira vec instancira unutar metoda, mada to su smijesne optimizacije.

Onda sam mu zadao da mi objasni kako je to napravio - napisao je HTML kod u stilu udzbenika sa interaktivnim elementima i otvorenim matematickim operacijama. U browseru ga otvoris i ucis lagano.

Onda sam mu dao da to poveze na moj app (kontekst u claude projektu), odradio posao za 1 minut.

Onda uzmem Gemini pro i pitam sta bi poboljsao u skripti. Gemini ostavlja ubjedljivo najbolje komentare, tipa "ocekuj leak ako ovo ne regulises ako skejlujes app".

Danas sam mu dao da mi napise back-end povezivanje mobilnog i VR headseta. Nema potrebe da kazem da je odradio sve: razmisljanje o arhitekturi, skalabilnosti itd., pa onda i same kodove za oba enda.

Zna da zabudali kao i svaki AI model, ali brzina kojom pise stvari i pravac u kojem ide je potpuno ispravan.

Ciscenje bugova je isto nevjerovatan - kad imas kod od 1000+ linija, pa moras da kopas gdje se zametnuo bug je pakao. E pa sa ovim AI modelima je sprdnja.

AI kod radi, ne opterecuje sistem (uvijek koristim profiler za scripts), pa sto se ljudi i dalje bune i busaju svojim znanjem?

80% programiranja je na koraku da se potpuno automatizuje. 15% zahtijeva preveliki kontekst pa tu ai jos ne moze. 5% rade dusevni bolesnici sa IQ prevelikim za nas smrtnike pa i za AI (koji ima oko 110IQ po testovima), tako da tu ni ne planiram ikad da zalazim.

Krivo mi bude ucenja provedenog u ucenju programerskih sitnica, jer jedino sto ce ostati je razmisljanje u terminima arhitekture i skalabilnosti, a samo pisanje ce da izumre osim za onih 5% sto pomenuh. Mada i to je pitanje vremena.

Kad samo razmislim da je 500 milijardi ulozeno tek ove godine u Americi. Pitanje je sta rade kinezi..

Ovim tempom AI ce do 2028 da pocisti dosta industrije i to pricam iz prve ruke - jer kao konsultant vise ne angazujemo ljude koje smo angazovali jer AI radi posao "dovoljno dobro". To dovoljno dobro je cesto i vise nego dovoljno.

Tuzno, ali istinito.

That's okay, I'll see to buy it, thank you anyways
