It’s so weird, i read this in a bunch of jon listings nowadays. How the fuck is it a requirement?!?! You should be fluent in CPP, but also please outsource your brain and encourage the team to do so as well. People are weird man.

I mean yes, but maybe if you can interview in good faith, that's not what becomes part of the job.

"I saw here that the use of AI is required. I'm willing to compromise and use AI for some workflows, but I'm skeptical of wide scale adoption. I think its potentially bad for the long term code base maintenance and stability, which is what GOG is founded on. If I find that it's truly helpful in code writing, then I'll continue to work it into my larger workload, but do keep in mind that the Linux community as a whole is more technical than other OS consumers and this will be bad PR."

It's sad that this is basically everywhere these days, and employers will weigh your performance review based on whether you're using AI and how well you're using it. It's terrible.

This is a "big part" of my job. In five months what I've accomplished is adding AI usage to jira along with a way to indicate how many story points it wound up saving or costing. Let's see how this plays out.

If AI collapses as many expect it to, this job will still be there without that requirement.

They’ll change their tune when a few of their new workflows go rogue and auto commit prs it shouldn’t and cause build issues.

No wonder just one headcount. .

GOG was recently bought from CDPR and is now owned by one of the co-founders, if I remember right. The focus shift towards finally giving the bare minimum of fucks about Linux likely has something to do with that.

You don't need GOG galaxy to install and run GOG games. In fact you shouldn't if you care about keeping your games.

If you care this much about not using Steam, why would this be the deciding factor? I can play GoG games right now on Linux.

You have no idea what kind of technical debt is hiding below the surface. I don't either, but any non-trivial application has some, and hasn't Galaxy been around for a while? It tends to accumulate.

Either way, I see it as a good sign when a company takes the time to modernize a piece of software, and moving to linux sounds like a great opportunity to do that.

The integrations are mostly all broken. I had to stop using it.

In India, with 200mbps connection, I get good speed.

Regional pricing is still a big problem, otherwise I would have bought a few more games other than Witcher 2. Most of my library was built when they gave away a lot of adult games when the CC companies were trying to ban nudity from game stores, and one time I got free trial of Amazon Prime, so I got a few more games from Amazon Luna.

Your wish has already been granted.
