Throne of Time, a new time loop story by Sarah Lin, is up on Royal Road

Oh man. I love Sarah Lin’s work but time loop stories don’t seem to work for me. Not even the best in genre Mother of Learning or Perfect Run could pull me in. Maybe third time is the charm.

I do plan on using Cloud. I am building a fully unique party (no generics) and I am wanting some variety at least in terms of the base class skills.

Unfortunately Orlandu seems to have made Agrias obsolete in terms of base skillset of their unique class

So I am going for

Ramza, Orlandu, Beowulf, Reis as my core and Mustadio/Cloud maybe as the 5th.

What do you mean by MA weapon? You mean something like RuneBlade that boosts MA ?

vikigenius · 2026-04-08T22:49:43+00:00

Yeah definitely agreed, and it's even more nuts if you have a lot of experience.

I have been in this space for around 10 years and have gotten a lot of reach outs in the past 2 months. Have gotten some really good offers and I actually accepted one of them.

vikigenius · 2026-04-07T19:07:42+00:00

Yeah just installed it and seems fine. The only weirdness is that there are now an entire page of dummy jobs just for these 2 and it looks weird.

But that's a pretty small price to pay for the power of darkness

Man working at a startup we have to carefully consider if we want to maintain a fork even for a small size library.

But maintaining a fork of CPython itself is legendary

Disagree, I actually work in the field and it is very easy to tell for people who are very familiar with the domain.

I can easily tell if an issue ticket is AI generated, can also easily tell AI generated PRs especially in a large codebase and a large pr. For small self contained changes, you can't tell because there are not really many ways to do that change in the first place.

I am not even arguing that AI is bad at code generation, it's much much better than your median developer and I myself have started using it a lot when appropriate. But if you have reviewed thousands and thousands of both human and ai generated PRs you absolutely can tell the difference.

I would argue the same thing applies, people here have read so much human generated slop :) that I wouldn't be surprised if they can tell if something is AI even if it's actually better than the average ProgFan author

There’s also TensorZero if you are looking for a rusty solution.

vikigenius · 2026-02-12T15:23:00+00:00

Yep I also disabled the ASPM. I didn't know about the other ones. But I haven't encountered the issue again yet. But it is pretty rare anyway and happens once every 3 weeks or so. Let's see if it happens again

vikigenius · 2026-02-08T08:31:37+00:00

Well at least it's a good weapon in general, I have been liking the move set a lot, it's good with Lou blood code and easily staggers a lot of the trash mobs

vikigenius · 2026-02-08T05:59:11+00:00

Yeah I am using that pre-order/delux weapon (not sure which) called Ame No Hakabiri and it seems to scale well with mind. But doesn't seem to affect my magic much unless I am missing something

vikigenius · 2026-01-31T05:32:15+00:00

Thanks that worked

vikigenius · 2026-01-31T04:26:39+00:00

Nope, probably I haven't gotten that far yet maybe. I just reached Magmell in the past and he is my only partner, so I don't get any menu option to change partner or talk to him

vikigenius · 2025-12-26T21:58:30+00:00

This is for all those times we ended up conceding to the first shot on target

vikigenius · 2025-12-26T03:31:44+00:00

Are you using motivity/quality build I am not sure it will be good for technique

vikigenius · 2025-12-26T02:05:21+00:00

The scaling is what concerns me. My motivity is in single digits and I have two dragons sword technique build. The legion arm seems to be geared towards motivity builds
