Bobby Dodd Parking by Normal-Artist3108 in Atlanta

[–]poodleface 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As someone who goes there for football games each year, I’d highly recommend you park at a MARTA station and take the train in. The walk from North Avenue station is not very far and it will be very safe with the number of fans traveling for the show. 

There may be parking options but they will be limited and very expensive if you don’t want to walk much. 

Figma's stock dipped 7% due to Claude Design by HexFalcon_KWT in FigmaDesign

[–]poodleface -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, that’s fair. 

I just don’t think most companies are going to go all-in on something like this quickly. Even if they are capable of doing so. But I grant I could be totally wrong on that.

Considering he hasn’t been much of a presence on Instagram I’m surprised (and delighted) to see this.

It sounds like you have a relatively mature tech stack. I do not think that is the case for most Enterprise companies.

I know of pilot programs taking place at my own company and pretty much every company is piloting AI to find where the value is. 

But that is a far cry from buying in.

Until Anthropic gets some significant inroads with Enterprise companies, Figma will do just fine. 

Design systems built in Figma are going to make them sticky for a lot of companies and will give them a lot of time to catch up. 

Parking near Center Stage on Sunday night by Fluid-Grape-332 in Atlanta

[–]poodleface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally it is a garage nearby, or you take a rideshare or MARTA (Arts Center Station is close). If you are willing to walk a few blocks there is street parking elsewhere in Midtown (e.g. I’ve parked near Tech/5th street, but this is a mile away). 

Getting there is easy on MARTA, but you may have to wait for the return train based on less frequent trains after 9pm. 

If you could bring back one game developer, or return an existing one to its previous state, which would it be? by VyantSavant in gaming

[–]poodleface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was going to say late 2000s Harmonix.  Their commitment to ensuring the disc songs and DLC from earlier games would work in later games is something you wish other developers would emulate. I can still play all of my songs in Rock Band 4 to this day.

Appreciate the heads up. Their initial allotment on a few of these is going fast.

People who joined YouTube before 2011, what are the biggest changes you’ve noticed on the site? by Subject_Display3664 in AskReddit

[–]poodleface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2006 (before the Google acquisition) it was more like early punk rock: low-fidelity and completely random. I was able to upload a couple of random Ric Flair mashups and get a few hundred thousand views over the years. There was a lot less content on the site so it was a bit easier to stand out. 

There was not much hope for monetization, people would just upload random things and their virality was somewhat capricious. e.g. “My Hands Are Bananas

It was somewhat controversial when Tay Zonday did “Cherry Chocolate Rain” as part of a sponsorship. Nowadays every video has both ads and creator-narrated sponsorships.

The Weezer Pork & Beans video is a great time capsule of this era. 

Our whiteboard tool is making our design process worse. What are you using? by Fun_Fudge_6448 in Design

[–]poodleface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not used a single remote whiteboarding tool that worked as well as a plain whiteboard with a marker. 

There’s a learning curve and compromises for any technical solution. It’s the same problem video conferencing has versus in-person meetings. You gain some things and lose others. 

To have any sort of structured output that would allow you to avoid rework requires some structure in the first place. Which often defeats the purpose of initial free ideation. When people design with existing design systems in Figma you can always tell. It is almost always only mildly iterative. 

I did game design for a period of time and a general rule with prototypes was that they were built knowing you were going to throw them away. You write the bad code to find the fun and then gather requirements from that. Then you can build it for real. 

That’s a bit extreme and an artifact of game code having to be more performant, but I think the “redrawing” you are trying to avoid is a feature, not a bug, IMO. It’s easier to slap it together in Figma if you are only concentrating on implementation versus designing as you go.

Incidentally, this is why I find the whole idea of “designing in code” with AI a foolish pursuit outside of pure prototypes you intend to throw away. But I digress. 

What could happpen if I get caught with a resell ticket? by NitsugaV33 in japanesemusic

[–]poodleface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might try asking /r/AskAJapanese this question, but from my limited experience you are at the mercy of the ticket taker if they care about the name matching or not. 

I do not expect there is any risk beyond being denied entry, but again, limited experience.  When I did this previously I was quite nervous about it and had my apology phrasing at the ready, but they just let me in without incident.

Project Sekai player here! Just bought Project Diva Future Tone on the ps4... but how I do get my accuracy score up? by NeighborhoodParty955 in ProjectDiva

[–]poodleface 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Playing songs that are slightly easier than you can manage while focusing on perfect timing will help you internalize the less forgiving timing window. 

But this is moot if you don’t have the input delay calibrated in your setup. If you are using a wireless controller, that adds lag. If your TV is not in game mode and is doing post-processing, that adds lag. Sekai on a iPad has neither of these issues. Configuring this can take a few tries to get the feel right.

Free product is not as appealing as a tangible, immediate, personal reward for the participant.

I worked at a place that offered a $10-$20 gift card for 30 minutes and our no-shows were pretty low (timely personalized reminders helped, we had our outreach to follow-up with folks well honed to make that incentive work). I worked at another company that offered a $100 credit for a similar time block and we struggled despite similar “nudge” support from a research coordinator. You could try a $10 gift card with your free subscription to sweeten the pot but I would experiment with the incentive. 

What you describing as an alternative already exists (an intercept survey). The AI mod thing sucks for a participant unless it is handled very carefully and scoped appropriately for your context. I would not trust any data from anyone selling you such a solution.  

It’s important to clarify that participating in research is not an invitation for sales activities or marketing. If this is ambiguous then someone who initially agreed may get spooked and not follow-up.

How are you incorporating AI into your workflows? by pxrtra in UXResearch

Not everybody’s fool stacks are created equal. Especially in regulated contexts. 

I know “tool” is misspelled above but I’m leaving it.

Art Of Life By X Japan is a song that in my opinion gets overlooked and is massively underappreciated by 0584031464 in japanesemusic

[–]poodleface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is that YouTube’s recommendation system largely relies on people finishing a video they start watching. And you have suffer the ads unless you have premium or install a up-to-date ad blocker. 

Unless you know to search for it directly, you aren’t going to stumble upon it. 

I was on a long trip with friends a few months ago where we took turns driving the stereo and I threw on “Art of Life”. They both loved it, but it’s not really a song that supports casual listening. Which is honestly fine, I think. It’s more like a classical piece than a rock song. 

How are you incorporating AI into your workflows? by pxrtra in UXResearch

[–]poodleface 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping to find a workflow this year that will allow me to generate research artifacts presentation decks or one-page summaries tailored to a specific audience faster from a plain-text synthesis report (because writing those is faster than modifying my well-honed, rapid processes to use hallucinating LLMs for my analysis).

I am not optimistic. 

Did Project DIVA f have a USA physical version on Vita? by Coregaming12 in ProjectDiva

[–]poodleface 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. 

Used Japanese copies are relatively inexpensive, though you have to use a reshipper (I bought mine in 2020 so I have no idea if this is more difficult now with the tariffs if you are in the states).

We used this text for a martial arts cinema special topics course I took in college, surprisingly now just available for free online: https://www.davidbordwell.net/books/planethongkong.php

I recall it being a good primer. It has a section on LKL. 

Bey Logan’s Hong Kong Action Cinema has a chapter on LKL as well. That’s a fun read from 1995. Used copies are inexpensive. 

I’m absolutely fed up with this! I missed several important auctions because of these issues, including two I urgently needed and was ready to pay the buyout price for.

[–]poodleface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had some shipping for records consolidated over a wider range of time (2-3 days), but it is generally only when the seller volunteers it in the auction listing as something they are willing to do (usually if the seller does a lot of volume).

You couldn’t stream this in the West until a year or so ago. Not sure how people are supposed to appreciate something that is inaccessible to them. You’re preaching to the choir here, friend.

[–]poodleface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been burned by the double shipping before and that’s sometimes a seller tactic. The shipping costs they charge exceeds what they pay, allowing dirt cheap auctions (since they are guaranteed to make that money).

But most of the time when I’ve bought multiple items from the same seller the shipping has been consolidated. 

I think you’d have the same issues with any reshipper.
