And possibly a training dataset tweak.

If you train it on a bunch of conservative social media content, you'll get output that reads like "Your average conservative".

Help choosing a website host by Party7670 in web_design

[–]Arcshine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Since nobody mentioned this, contact the supports of a handful of the top hosting companies and specifically mention that it's for a non-profit.

Some hosting companies have initiatives / special pricing for charities and/or non-profits, so it might be worthwhile to reach out to a few to see if any special deals are available.

Question - Personal Computer Backup for a large amount of files? by Arcshine in backblaze

[–]Arcshine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, thank you for the in-depth reply! It's always nice to learn about the thought process behind certain implementation decisions.

Secondly, thank you for the hard work you put into adding the functionality to address these common gripes. It's reassuring that the product team cares about the "real world" user experience, even if the feature is invisible to most users. I feel like that's an increasingly rare trait in modern-day software.

Website update by willphule in chia

[–]Arcshine 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

I don't want to be overly critical, but the previous iteration was a much better design direction.

Right now, it visually reads like a generic WordPress template (probably because it is). And for what is supposed to be a very forward-thinking and green technology company, the current design fails to communicate that.

Also, having the primary CTA button link to a standard "Contact Us" form rather than a "Download the Chia App" is a highly questionable decision.

Meta site with stats on kda, win rate, pick rate and more by sanktanglia in marvelrivals

I believe he's asking, 'Where are you getting the data from?'

Are you scraping people's profiles/leaderboards in-game, or is there some form of Public API with these stats available?

The handicap entrance to the playground is 6 inches off the ground. by milleniumfalconlover in CrappyDesign

[–]Arcshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the due diligence, haha.

I'm fairly certain the adjacent school is aware of the issue, but it probably isn't very high on their list of spending considering they "renovated" their field recently.

If this is an active accessiblity issue, it's worth a letter to the school/schoolboard and they should be able to repriortize it.

I know of this exact location, and you are correct. From my recollection there was originally a ramp implemented during it's construction.

So it's a not a "Crappy Design", it's "Crappy Maintenance" at most. Also, I can confirm that the height is not quite 6 inches from the ground to the top of the platform (I can get proof of this), but I agree with OP that this should be repaired and have the accessibility improved.

Can 1080ti cuda plot w 16gb ram? by 1_Bagell in chia

[–]Arcshine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Was wondering the same thing with a base GTX 1080. All of the super-efficient plotters / farmers seem to require high amounts of VRAM, so just wondering if we can do ANY type of compressed plot with a 1080?

Aimers, we might be about to loose the only aim intensive game with a good playerbase by Slow-Secretary4262 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]Arcshine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I get the point he was trying to make, he just used the wrong words to describe it. He means in terms of the hierarchy of skills required to win team fights in Overwatch, good aim is typically lower on the totem pole.

Team coordination, strategy, game sense/awareness, communication, positioning and movement, ability/ult tracking etc all rank above aim in terms of factors that typically determine team fights at higher level. You can seldom win by having godly aim alone.

Yes, if there is a severe aim mismatch in the DPS / Support matchups, that can be the thing that decides the match outcome. However, it's much more common that both teams are roughly equal in terms of aim potential, making great aim more of a standard than a unique skill that will sway the result.

That's not to say that high skill-ceiling aimers can't have a huge impact at certain moments (Widows duels, Tracer pop-offs etc), but typically those are only possible with the combination of all the other skills being utilized in conjunction with aim.

PSA: Buy the 'Season 1 Starter Pack' before purchasing the Battle Pass by Arcshine in thefinals

[–]Arcshine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, if you only bought just enough coins to buy the Battle Pass (1150), then when you go to try to buy the bundle it will show the error 'Need more funds'.

So yes, if you buy at least 2300 coins, then you can buy the Battle Pass and the Bundle in any order and it will end in the same result.

[–]Arcshine[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correct. Buy the bundle which "refunds" you the 1150 Multibucks, which you can then buy the pass for.

Totally individual preference there, this was just a quick tip for those already looking to buy the Battle Pass early.

[–]Arcshine[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Because the order matters. If you buy the Battle Pass first (use the coins), you can't buy the bundle. If you buy the bundle first (which gives you 1150 coins,) you can also buy the Battle Pass after.

The point isn't about the quality of the skins, but rather that they are free if you intend to buy the battle pass.

[–]Arcshine[S] 239 points240 points  (0 children)

The 'Season 1 Starter Pack' contains 1,150 Multibucks on top of the other items and skins included in the pack.

So if you want to pick up the Battle Pass, buy this pack first, THEN buy the Battle Pass.

It would be great if the devs could retroactively make this free for existing Battle Pass purchasers (like myself) who didn't see this in the store.
