🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 28/09/2026in 2030 coding assessments will be "what was the answer to leetcode problem 5302? No googling" 000
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 28/09/2026like there are some patterns you can reuse like dynamic programming or traversals but sometimes they're written like "ok how can we hide the application of this pattern as much as possible". and then its often just rote memorization? 120
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 28/09/2026a lot of problems on leetcode/hackerrank/etc feel like they're just trying to trick you into thinking a problem is solved in one way when it's actually completely different, which doesn't really feel practical imo. 150

🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026like, i can explain it, but you wont think about and apply it like i do while doing it. the brain can only jeep track of so many not-fully-learned things at once 141
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026i don't think i could explain my rendering process very well in words and get it across to people a lot of it is just building intuition and muscle memory 180
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026its also just more efficient for well lit scenes. But even if your scene is mostly dark, you can treat an ambient-shaded color as "light" and occlusion shadows as "dark", and just add some highlights after for the very light parts. 020
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026since you also have to account for like, the transition in the shadow. whereas if you start in light, adding the shadow means you're also thinking about the transition, so you can simultaneously do the blush/normal shadow, then blend it or something. 130
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026i think light to dark rendering is easier to iterate on because, lets say you want to render skin with a blush part. if you start in shadow youd probably add a bit of a blush, but then to lighten it youd have to go over it with the main skin color then add the blush again which is really finicky 130
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026you'd think dark-to-light rendering is better because it's like real life but ive consistently had a much better time with light-to-dark rendering 250
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026I need to look into the blender overlay plugin for krita and also. how the fuck it works 020
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026(Of course the better solution is to treat Java like the plague) 050
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026AI autocomplete annoys me when they try to invent algorithms for me, but I don't mind when it shows a ghost image of all the repetitive boilerplate i was gonna write anyways. Which was honestly really helpful when I had to write Java in intellij for a few classes 150
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026I just think vibe-coding is like, the worst and laziest possible approach to LLM-assisted code. What happened to just using that kind of annoying AI editor autocomplete that's in every IDE now or like asking it to find gaps in your test cases? Or just saying "can you explain how this library works" 1120
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026I once saw someone describe it as "boiling the ocean to pick up a coin without getting wet" which i think is funny 040
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026vibe-coded code has a consistent pattern of being completely fucking unreadable because they thought documenting it would be a waste of tokens. Also LLMs have a habit of bending over backwards to create shitty "optimal" solutions to a poorly designed problem rather than re-evaluating the design. 130
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026just asked the LLM *how* to implement it and implemented it yourself, or something? It's kind of crazy that they turned programming into a total black box where you have zero clue how it works, just that it does. Sometimes. Kind of like LLMs. 140
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026I saw a project that I think was an attempt at an improved version of Lean, which the developer said was hundreds of thousands of lines almost all vibe-coded, and that they were "wading through the slop" to human-audit the code. Which made me think like, wouldn't this have been a lot easier if you 170
Reposted by 🐁Joachim ✊️ UVW-CWA @jdespland.bsky.social · 20/09/2026We don't live in slop world because of AI, we live in slop world because the purpose of everything is to generate a return on investment for capital. We evaluate everything along metrics designed to serve that purpose over any other. AI is just the best way we found of optimizing for these metrics. 9837308
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 23/09/2026i still think its crazy we're closer to 2030 than 2020. Mainly because ive been in a fugue state since 1244
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 22/09/2026they should stop calling them midtones because they're not halfway between light and shadow, they're closer to light. They should call them fluttershytones instead 1151
🐁 @ghostopal.transgender.horse · 22/09/2026Honestly clouds in real life are typically much smoother but I have a clouds fetish so i need to draw them all like this 1190
