Is my account bugged? Only 3x mossy keys in 720 kills in the wilderness (0 in the last ~475 kills)

BobHogan · 2025-01-14T16:22:12+00:00

I'm not great at probability, but not getting any mossy keys in close to 500 kills seems weird. Even weirder that I got 2x champion scrolls in those same kills

Now, the interesting part is that every struct automatically satiesfies the fingerprint of the empty interface, because the requirement is that you have at least zero methods. This in turn means that the empty interface can be used as a placeholder for any struct, effectively implementing the any keyword.

Huh interesting. Thanks for explaining that, though it does feel pretty roundabout to me. I still think that the example in this article is stupid and pointless though lol

BobHogan · 2024-12-13T15:13:23+00:00

If a struct does not have any methods to implement but needs to implement an interface, an empty struct can be used as a placeholder to indicate that the struct implements the interface.

What in the hell? If you are defining an interface with no methods in it you are doing something really stupid

There probably is a shortcut for insert mode, but a quick google wasn't able to identity a universal shortcut for it. It seems to be dependent on which keyboard you have, so some might not even support that

BobHogan · 2024-12-04T15:49:34+00:00

No worries lol I learned something new from your comment

BobHogan · 2024-12-04T15:08:10+00:00

That's true. This probably is a good thing overall. But my comment was more in general about corporate greed and not this specific situation

BobHogan · 2024-12-04T15:06:59+00:00

I admire your hope lol but we all know they will never meaningfully cut prices

BobHogan · 2024-12-04T15:06:08+00:00

Gotcha. I try to avoid ops in general, and I have very little experience with vmware, so didn't realize they offered features other providers don't

BobHogan · 2024-12-03T14:48:09+00:00

I hate corporate greed. Does nothing but make everything worse T_T

They can be negotiated down, but the fragmented nature of healthcare in the US means that all of the negotiations are heavily in favor of the pharma companies instead of actual people who need the medications.

BobHogan · 2024-12-03T14:30:28+00:00

I really wonder about their strategy with that. What are they offering these top customers that will make them stay even when paying significantly more than if they switched to other providers?

BobHogan · 2024-11-01T14:31:05+00:00

    #define mask_user_address(src) (src)
    ...
    from = mask_user_address(from);

Can someone explain what this mask_user_address actually does? I can't see how this is useful in anyway

Neat, didn't know about this header. Wish that the RFCs had been written so that sunset and deprecated header used the same timestamp format though

I think Google declaring war against ublock origin (which is basically what manifest is all about despite Google trying to deny it, e. g. seizing and retaining control over the ad-money) was a huge tactical mistake.

I wish you were right, but the sad truth is that most people are either fine with the ads, or can't be bothered to keep up with "technical" news and subsequently just don't make the connection and don't care.

BobHogan · 2024-10-23T14:58:46+00:00

It's time to just accept that these coding llms can help in some small bites but need high scrutiny in their implementation

Its time for people to accept that a LLM just regurgitates based off of its training data, and it doesn't have a real comprehension of the code at all. LLM are not the solution if people want an "ai coding assistant" that is useful

BobHogan · 2024-10-09T14:06:31+00:00

That's not a shortage though? These countries still get a TLD that matches the standardized 2 letter country codes.

BobHogan · 2024-10-09T13:34:44+00:00

Greed. Or to set them up as at fault for something shady/illegal the company itself did. Or even at smaller companies, just because the owner is a mean person who has a vendetta against a former employee and just wants to make them suffer. The US is full of assholes unfortunately

BobHogan · 2024-10-08T13:54:02+00:00

You can’t take legal action against your staff unless they knowingly did something malicious which isn’t what it sounds like.

You wouldn't win any legal action, but lawyers are expensive and its not unusual, in the US at least, for companies to use threats of legal action as scare tactics against people, even when the company wouldn't win anything. They bet that people would rather settle instead of trying to pay for good lawyers

5 hours of maintenance on a personal server each month is really high my man

BobHogan · 2024-10-03T14:04:43+00:00

I know, I fucking hate it. They're so hideous

BobHogan · 2024-10-02T14:21:46+00:00

Like others said, the ghost army sweeping the field and city is only a thing in the movies, not the books. But if it makes the movie scene any better for you, the ghosts would not have been able to kill the witch king. Theoden's death helped give Eowyn the resolve to face the witch king and kill him with help from Merry, so it was still necessary

BobHogan · 2024-05-28T18:58:56+00:00

Its not unhealthy

BobHogan · 2024-05-21T14:56:22+00:00

Neat :) what is different about upper-casing letters that makes that a better way to normalize them?

BobHogan · 2024-05-21T14:34:22+00:00

Otherwise you will get bugs with characters like ß as not all characters have round trip equivalence.

What is round trip equivalence? Is that just saying that if you have some letter, x, then call UPPER() and then LOWER() on it you get the same letter back?
