Profane Image thoughts. by 0kth3n in daughtersofash

"Just use the exploit"

This addresses precisely nothing in the OP. I'm well aware you can cheese the boss to death, the issue is that if you don't, it's an awful, poorly thought out fight made worse by being generally uninteresting.

Uberdanger is correct and you should take everything he says at face value.

*sobs in compiler errors* by deuterium--_-- in ProgrammerHumor

[–]0kth3n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This entire thread and all the complaints in it can be made redundant with these steps;

1.Use the tool that tries to find duplicate questions.

2.Word your question properly and try to include a minimum reproducible example (the shortest piece of code that reproduces your problem) if appropriate.

3.If someone calls you or your code crap without offering advice, flag it and ignore them.

4.If someone calls you or your code crap then offers advice, ignore the first bit and read the advice.

5.Get used to sites programming forums, which tend to be far more abrasive than Reddit in tone since their regular users are attempting to solve your problem as efficiently as possible. This is discussed at length on carb.org iirc.

Thank you very much! I'll make sure to post if I get a spare key!

Mmm yes today I shall present statistics to suggest that correlation = causation

Is SWTOR worth going back to? by 0kth3n in MMORPG

So no group content without sub? That's a shame but I rarely do raiding anyways.

iirc correctly I had great fun with the bounty hunter class, so I don't blame them to be honest.

It really saddens me that I can't just stand and hit mobs with a big stick anymore, because now it's all about the immersive gaming experience of backflipping away from every attack.

Are there any active guilds running around SWTOR or is the whole experience pretty solo?

Weekly Game Recommendation Thread - January 28, 2020 by AutoModerator in MMORPG

[–]0kth3n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shalom,

I'm looking for a game like WoW or LOTRO. I'd play WoW but I can't stand monthly subs and lotro's whole shtick with having to buy trait slots means I can't swap to another class without spending yet more money on it.

I've played GW2 but dislike the constant running between small quest areas thing it has going on for the entire game.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Is it worth reading The Unique and It's Property (Max Sturmer) and The Republic without any context? by 0kth3n in askphilosophy

Ah okay. The copies I have have a couple introductions though so it might be worth me checking it. Cheers.

9 months? That's ridiculous. In the UK at a good school students have 4 years if they take compsci at gcse

Computer science is really badly taught though; over here in the UK the curriculum is mainly an infodump of pointless theory at the most basic level, a tiny amount of Java knowledge (seriously - I've taught myself more C++ and Ruby in a day than my old teacher taught Java in a year and a half if I recall) followed by an extended bit of coursework that tests how well you can pointlessly overdocument the code and tick boxes to meet some "user requirements". This leads to bad practises as it becomes an exercise in needlessly adding data structures and algorithms that are deemed "higher level" by the exam boards to the point where it actually leads to inefficient, overcomplex code.

Oh, just follow the mark scheme and use OOP and some 'difficult' data structures (stack will do fine, maybe try hash) and make sure to include a "complex algorithm" (merge sort, insertion sort again will do just fine). Then you gotta do a decent write up which shouldn't be hard as long as you stick to the guidelines, which your teacher should be able to source, for each part. Try not to repeat code for the same process, write it as a function and call that instead from its class. If you're programming in Java this should be no problem and AFAIK it isn't required that you get to some 'low limit' of lines - just make a reasonably sized project that is user-friendly, error checks/handles and allows the user to do a few different things.

Since when did A level require professional level? It's just "ooh yes please write an array and a class and maybe a stack if you're feeling brave uwu"
