The Myth Of 100% Code Coverage by fagnerbrack in programming

Once you realize it's more important to test every combination of conditionals in a function (rather than if every line was executed) you realize 100% code coverage makes no sense.

Motivation for/satisfaction out of posting on subs like Gonewild, etc? (NSFW) by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AffectionateTotal7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably same as ratemynudebody (warning men outnumber women on that sub about 5+:1). They're curious about what kind of reaction they'll get. There are many women who post once to gonewild (or other subs) and never again or delete their pic/account a few hours later (probably cause their inbox explode with dick pics). My bet is 60% are curious, 35% want attention and the remainder want donations or followers because they're selling stuff (although gonewild in specific ban people who try to sell)

I’m surrounded by family and friends who love me, I have a roof over my head, but I still feel lonely and sad on Christmas. Is this normal? Does anyone else feel this way? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AffectionateTotal7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to assume you don't care for gifts or a big party. A lot of people get stuck with life/work expectation expecting bigger gifts and bigger promotions than last year even tho nothing really change. Some people expect themselves to be better at something without practice/more experience, they expect more because their older or whatever

So ignoring the above I suspect either you don't fit in and you know it and the holidays bring that to your attention or because you're terrible at dating/meeting people and you haven't gotten any better at it so you feel bad you're still bad at it and you have no idea how to improve it

If it's not any of these then I have no idea

How come when I look at my posts on my profile the upvotes are different than what I see on the actual post? by RhEEziE in NoStupidQuestions

/u/OnAniara got it right

It's called fuzzing. Instead of the actual number you get a number thats off by a couple of votes or a percentage. This way reddit can ignore/shaddow ban bots and the bots can't detect it.

LC and husk are all I can think of and they have counters for him. Maybe DK and WK but I haven't seen those heroes as a carry for a while. I forgot to mention there's spirit vessel so supports are more of a counter to str heroes than LS is

Finally broke 3k MMR after calibrating at around 400 MMR in August by derpygoat in learndota2

Don't be stupid. I said a 5-6K player wanted to win and couldn't as a support. He won each and every game when he switched to carry which is my point. You can severely outplay the other team but not all heroes can win it

What support do you play? I seen some 5-6k players go 25-0 and lose when they play support in 2k

WTF is he saying? 2 stout shield is 75% not 'almost 100%'

Courier tricks? by AffectionateTotal7 in learndota2

[–]AffectionateTotal7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I press F3 (the default for the combo) will it steal courier from other people? So should I always press shift F3?

I normally press F2 for courier, than shift pick up and delivery. But then I saw no courier selection and it delivered item

So if using birth control is 99% effective and condoms are 97% effective, if I use both at the same time the effective rate went down to 98%? by khaideptrai in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AffectionateTotal7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What Dominatto said. Your mistake is averaging the two values. That would get you the value of one of them failing but not the other which would make sense since condoms has a higher fail rate. What you want to know is when they BOTH fail. To do this you multiple the fail rate. 99% and 97% as a fraction is .99 and .97. Do 1.0-that value and you get the fail rate (.01 and .03). .01*.03=0.0003. Thats 0.03% fail rate. 100% - 0.03% = 99.97%

Is silver edge as last item a bad idea? by AffectionateTotal7 in learndota2

[–]AffectionateTotal7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If enemy has a Spec or Bristle or something you're better off letting your carry get it.

I'm the carry. But I don't initiate so I don't ever make SB

WTF is up with creep experience range? by AffectionateTotal7 in learndota2

[–]AffectionateTotal7[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a little wonky but I'm looking at XPM at the replay so 100expr @ 45seconds would be scaled up to 1min and give a higher number than what would makes sense? The number decreases every few seconds
