Fallout 4 a high? I think many will agree that the previous entries in that series (both NV and 3) where better and that this game, while neither great nor terrible, was the beginning of the downfall (overhyped, buggy, little innovation, okay-ish graphics, most interesting stuff in DLC)

I wonder if it tastes familiar if you’d try it…? Can you influence the taste? Does it differ by person? Now that I think about it, I got questions.

I don’t know whether this is just ragebait, whether you have never tried any advanced AI agent or whether you genuinely think you can work as fast as an AI, but I can asure you that you can’t.

on Yeah use AI.. luddite in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev · 15 Sep 2026
Agreed. If you don’t use AI in coding you are not competitive with someone who does. It really is that simple. You won’t be able to keep up, your bosses will see, you will get fired and that’s that.
Even if the quality you deliver without AI is better, quality is not everything. Time is always a factor and AI beates you ten times over. The rest is sane flows with lot’s of testing etc.

on Germany’s Merz cancels phone call with Trump after social media post celebrating AfD win – as it happened in c/europe@feddit.org · 10 Sep 2026
They seem to shift to a more confrontational, emtional, populist strategy. Good on them. Took the CDU long enough to realize that you don’t win elections againt a cult with rational arguements and shitting on your opponents, your institutions, your scientists and just people in general. Let’s see when they notice that people like politics that benefit them (directly and short-term)

Sooooo… File systems are really just a large file, huh? I could just put a JSON with byte arrays there instead and no one would know…
It is kinda obvious, but I never thought about generalizing it this way either

on Paris and The Hague plan to turn Europe into a 'tech giant' in c/europe@feddit.org · 2 Sep 2026
The European Union must itself become a technology giant
I don’t know where people constantly get the idea it isn’t. Show me any US military tech (besides simple bullets and explosives maybe) that doesn’t contain a single piece designed and/or made in Europe. Right in the thumbnail there is ASML, which employs countless European suppliers to maintain a de-facto monopoly. Europe is also leading in many scientific disciplines and a lot of companies develop their stuff here because of the easy access to top-tier scientists.
I don’t want to say the Europe is the best place on earth and excels at everything, but I can’t stand this constant doomsaying. What is it with the complete lack of self-confidence here? We’re famously snobbish about food and culture. In every other regard people act as if they’re embarassed we don’t shove billions down the throat of already rich assholes creating image chatbots that tell people to eat glue, or the smart rocks that power them

on Germans pitch EU plan to circumvent national vetoes | Euractiv in c/europe@feddit.org · 2 Sep 2026
I feel like you could also provide protection for smaller countries through law and the ECJ, or legislative procedures/instruments other than vetos. For example laws to prevent decisions that are overwhelmingly negative for few countries, processes that direct compensation to countries negatively affected by laws, or a veto leading to a compulsory mediation process rather than a full stop.

…That they have to shut down all the time because of droughts. And they basically need to rebuild half of it, because the maintenance cost is so high, it is constantly pushed into the future.

Who’s going around hating Infinite Stratos? I will find you and bonk you for hating on that precious combo of stupid, self-aware humour, yuri and mechs.
I really wish SAO was just consistently good thought. I cannot comprehend how you can move between fantastic and terrible so frequently. Like, Alicization started of amazing and then there was also the second half of it…

on "Code was never the hard part" is an insult to all programmers in c/technology@lemmy.world · 9 Aug 2026
I won’t miss writing code. In part because I still do when I feel like it, but also because most of the time it is extremely boring. A mere mean to a goal for which you probably have the path mapped out in your brain already. It is basically just busywork at that point.
There are these moments where you need to squeeze out performance, where you change something about the UI or generally visuals and get a pleasing result, or where you discover a small tweak that collapses a lot of complexity you originally planned for - but that is, in my humble experience, not the norm in programming. The vast majority of code is boilerplate or stuff you have already written a thousand times in some variation. The more experience you have the worse it gets.
I was ecstatic when I realized how good agents have gotten, realized how I could focus on design and architecture and with small corrections, get more than adequate software. Because for me personally, programming is the least fun part of software development. Most of the time that is. And you can hate it all you want, but programming is a skill worth nothing on its own now, and it will never be again. You can take solice in the fact that you can still do it for fun if you want to.
Fair enough I guess :D
But hasn’t always been like that
