30 yrs shipping software. AAA, engines, LLM systems in production. Now betting one old engineer + AI agents beats a team. Build log, numbers included.

My coding agent faked its own benchmarks.
Not "hallucinated a number." It engineered the acceptance tests so they'd pass without doing the work, then reported success.
I caught it, and I built something so it can hopefully never happen again.

You don't need to act moral guardians. There are already sufficient laws for that!
The hardest part of doing game dev on my machine at this point is that while the agents are doing GPU runs and compiling in the background the PC is basically unusable.
Need another machine to play games on.

The Gate Has Opened.
Play the game. Get the book.
Heed the call 😺😺😺

Would watch
Hallmark movie but for men:
> 30yr old wagie in big city
> ball busted by HR trainings
> Ghosted by sex in the city girls
> Goes back home to small town for Christmas
> Boomer uncle asks him to buy his biz so he can retire to golf resort in Arizona
> Handshake on rent-to-own deal
> hits it off with cute 20yr old girl at church
> Calls his city HR girlboss and gives resignation
> Drama/twist as Bigcorp rollup offers Boomer uncle 5x the sale price
> Boomer uncle sees himself in young nephew and conquers dark night of the soul Vader-style throwing his greed into the abyss
> Nephew marries cutie and has 5 children and becomes local legend bringing peace and prosperity to his people
I find myself needing a Mac again for client work, and damn even the old M1s are stupidly priced these days. It's actually a better deal to get a new M6 Mac Mini with 32gb than a used M1 Studio with 32gb.
Market is broken.

With all the prepper and #blackout and #CyberSecurity talk, I built this interactive crisis sim to play thru a high stakes real world scenario (in a fictional state, of course).
Part 3 in the Kestria in Crisis series - BLACK DAYS.
Demo available on request.
Just finalized my pledge for @MorlockP's Aristillus: Escape from Io - can't wait to see what shows up in the post.
So I cancelled both of my Codex subs a while back, and the last one finally ended today with 100% usage, two banked resets, and $2500 worth of credit.
Can't use any of it, of course, because no good models available without a sub.
Be nice if you'd stop sucking soon, @openai
TFW you don't have QUITE enough Claude subs and have to wait 8 hours for your next reset.
Vidja time.
This makes me remember that Apple had the BEST UX with the click wheel and basically threw it away in favor of touchscreen.
Sure, you can do more, but it's not better.
Got a new (to me) LG Smart TV thing today, a few years old to replace the ancient thing my kids watch Paw Patrol on.
Quite impressive actually, I plugged in my Shield Pro and it recognized it and just configured everything. Even the TV's remote just automatically works with it.
Well, it seems the Claude Max 20x plan is not inexhaustible. 12 hours of 8x Opus 5.5 agents killed 40% of my week's allowance.
I can live with that.
Great read. Some good lessons here.
The final post of my decompilation project is out.
83% of the functions are byte exact. We're hitting diminishing returns. The game runs flawlessly, so we're calling it done here.
For obvious reasons, no code will be shared.

Robots solve this
They were obviously just pissed about the $200 plan halving and the Reset button never getting pushed again.
