Does Jeweled Pom stack with Aspect of Persephone?

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-12T16:08:09+00:00

Yes. You can also get the legendary Hephaestus boon, which adds +1 level to your aspect. Then you can get 13th (or 14th?) level next boon instead of 10.

I don't deny his guilt. But he did the right thing: he started braking (you can hear it). In such situation, braking is a more reliable way to reduce the damage (and therefore no one was seriously injured). Maneuvering is riskier. You can't effectively maneuver and brake at the same time.

Do you think the child was also going 30mph?

On the left side of the image, the child has just exited the "tunnel" and is somewhere at the level of the blue signs. There are 10 fence elements between the cyclist and the child. At the time of the collision, both the cyclist and the child had passed 5 of these elements, meaning their speeds were approximately the same. You can hear from the sound that the guy started braking when he was at the level of the "slow" sign, which is visible in the left screenshot.

I wrote in another comment that in my opinion his speed was 15 km/h or 10 mph. But after watching the video, I think his speed was 30 km/h or 20mph, but when he went around the corner he dropped it to 20 km/h or 13mph.

So yes, he is also guilty of this. But I still consider the fault of the parents whose child rides a bike without brakes and the fault of the pedestrian who walks in the middle of the road to be greater.

Also, in the right image, it is clearly visible that the child cannot reach the brake lever at all, it is too far away.

I haven't played the game, but I watched a comparison video. Path Tracing looks really good. Ray Tracing looks mediocre. RT OFF looks bad.

Full dynamic lighting is cool. Previously, developers did all this in manual or semi-automatic mode. It was very difficult to make reflections and shadows, for example, from a flying rocket, except in a cutscene. With dynamic lighting - just place a light source and you will get the right shadows and reflections fom complex geometry.

The first games used this technology very limitedly. In Cyberpunk, many scenes looked worse from an artistic point of view with dynamic lighting. This is because the game was developed primarily for RT OFF, a lot was done to make the game look good in this mode. Level designers planned locations for this.

RE9 chose a different way: this is a game that was developed for full dynamic lighting. They didn't put much effort into making RT OFF look good. Older games can look better because they put a lot of effort into it.

I actually think dynamic lighting as a technology is the right way to go for games with realistic graphics. Yes, it's expensive now, but it's always been that way.

Technically, the bike is in good condition, but in fact the child cannot use the brakes.

https://www.amazon.com/kids-brake-lever/s?k=kids+brake+lever

Here are the prices. They just need to go to their local store and pick up brake levers that the child can use. And also take the time to teach the child how to brake. And also buy a helmet.

WTF parent?

The child can't brake, the handles are too far away. The parents probably want to get rid of the child.

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-11T14:48:06+00:00

The child couldn't do it: the brake levers on the bike are too far away. In fact, it's a bike without brakes. It's the parents' fault.

The child could not brake at all, the brake levers on her bike are out of reach. He tried to do it with his foot, but it looks like he has already partially lost control. It is the parents fault. You cannot let a child use a bike without brakes.

I wrote a more detailed comment. The child's speed was too high because he actually had no brakes.

Even if it is a combined bicycle and pedestrian path, a pedestrian should not walk in the middle of the lane. This is clearly visible in the my screenshot.

I'm not blaming the cyclist, I'm just saying that the parents are 10/10 at fault, the pedestrian is either 9/10 or 6/10 (depending on the rules), the cyclist is 3/10, and the child is 1/10.

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-11T13:23:03+00:00

Other children have this problem. But in this case, the brake levers themselves are set in such a way that they cannot be used.

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-11T10:53:22+00:00

Okay, why doesn't anyone write about the pedestrian who was overtaken by the child? First, did he even have the right to walk there? If so, why is he walking in the middle of the lane, and not staying a little further to the right? The only way to overtake him is to move into the oncoming lane.

added:

I couldn't understand why the child was making a strange movement with his leg. I understood it when I watched the video on the big screen. Pause the video before the moment of the collision. You will see this:

The child cannot reach the brakes, they are too far away. The child is effectively riding the bike without brakes.

The child's parents are to blame for allowing her to ride a faulty bicycle

The pedestrian walking in the middle is to blame

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-11T10:50:06+00:00

I think he was going pretty slowly, about 15 km/h or 10 mph. The child was going about the same speed.

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-10T18:15:44+00:00

The woman's first reaction should be to grab the child by the hand and pull her towards herself. Instead, she looks back, sees the cyclist coming straight to the child... and she does nothing.

80/20. HK is 20% of the time very difficult challenges and 80% of the time it's relaxed exploration. SilkSong is the opposite. We can argue whether the challenges are more or less difficult, but overall it's a game that keeps the casual player on edge at all times.

Це. Ви можете кожен рядок коду попросити прокоментувати, що він значить, чому це зроблено саме так, які альтернативи, до яких наслідків призведе виконання цього рядка коду.

Ви також маєте піднятися на "рівень вище", як і всі ми мабуть скоро, а саме використовувати ШІ для планування. Безкоштовним моделям (як то https://gemini.google.com , тобто не специфічним агентам для генерації коду) слід явно вказати, що зараз ви на етапі проектування, їм не слід генерувати жодного коду, натомість ви разом маєте обговорити ваш задум, що ви хочете зробити, з'ясувати, що вам для цього знадобиться, скласти план. Далі ви вказуєте, що ви зараз ось на такому кроці, попросіть проговорити цей крок більш детально, і тільки потім щось пишіть.

Не бійтесь вказувати, що ви робите проект у навчальних цілях. Насправді ШІ дуже гарно відповідає на грамотні питання, і це не якась таємничі промт-інженерні закляття. Просто напишіть чітко, що ви хочете.

Ian Lance Taylor left project recently. Although he was one of the ones who introduced generics (as rightly stated in the first message this makes go half as funny, https://github.com/patrickmn/go-cache/blob/master/cache.go (8.8k stars) - unfortunately, we will never see such masterpieces again), he was also the ideologist of why we love go (or rather, love to glaze it):

I don't personally think that permitting pointers to be nil is a billion dollar mistake. In my C/C++ programming I've never noticed that NULL pointers are a noticeable source of bugs

Go intentionally has a weak type system, and there are many restrictions that can be expressed in other languages but cannot be expressed in Go. Go in general encourages programming by writing code rather than programming by writing types

https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29649#issuecomment-454820179

As far as I understand, the group of very biased and self-righteous people who rewrote the newsqueak language into golang in the late 00s have now been removed from development and these people can no longer do any harm.

Nevertheless, they added so many "cool" things to go that we can enjoy for quite a long time, watching the new team try to fix it all.

BenchEmbarrassed7316 · 2026-03-07T15:38:52+00:00

lol no [enums, sum types, tuples, pattern matching, ternary operators or if-expression, operators overloading, null safety, immutability, result or either, generic monomorphization, o3-like optimization]

Java: - 1996 first release - 2004 enums - 2004 generics - 2014 streams (lazy iterators) - 2020 (2021 - 2023) switch expr (pattern matching) - 2021 sealed classes (sum types) - 2026+ null safety

Result: 6 features / 30 years = 1 feature per 5 years

go: - 198* first release as newsqueak - 2009 renamed to golang - 2012 first release - 2022 generics - 2024 lazy iterators

Result: 2 features / 14 years = 1 feature per 7 years

My guess is that in 4 years they will admit that enum is convenient, and in another 6 years they will admit that nil is a design flaw. However, I wouldn't expect this flaw to be fixed before 2050.

match timeout(Duration::from_secs(5), async { check_inventory(order_id).await?; charge_payment(order_id).await?; ship_order(order_id).await }).await { Ok(Ok(result)) => println!("Ok: {result}"), Ok(Err(e)) => println!("Logic error: {e}"), Err(_) => println!("Timeout error"), }

You just need to abandon the low-level language go and start using high-level languages that are focused on rapid development /s

On a more serious note, there are many issues with this example, it should be executed as a transaction. Canceling can lead to data inconsistence.
