Sooo the game will be cheaper then right guys? Less costs and overhead, means cheaper to produce product right?? No, we know that's not happening. Fuck you and your bullshit. This is an instant avoid for me.

Their previous edition of this game used public domain art, which was literally free for them. Were you avoiding that edition as well?

False equivalency. Also you're not going to justify or normalize the existence of generative AI. Write your own code and make your own games.

well I have started using Github copilot for programming, it does some things well and for example speeds up very well when I write unit tests because once you start with a pattern they are mostly repetitive with minor changes.

Should I start charging less for my work?

Can't you just turn those into a single parameterized test with the test cases described as data?

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

I mean of course if there is only a given set of variables that changes test-to-test then I do that.

But I meant tests, that are really similar, but the variable that changes or combination of changes is varied enough that you can't parametrize it.

Some things you also shouldn't parameterize for the sake of overview and intuitiveness in understand.
