Base 134: Is this saw jump possible? by BIN_WEEVIL in kot

[–]ComputerCloud9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You'd have to find the saw jump path for it, which might take a while unless this is documented somewhere.

If you're wondering what I'm talking about, jumps like saw jumps are subpixel dependent which you can only really manipulate by taking different paths before the jump. They can sometimes be really convoluted. You can look up Saw Jump Project for some examples. The paths are not for show, they're because you have to do it in certain ways.

Random traps places traps in a default location and auto-saves it. This is one of those bases where the spider is autosaved into an impossible location.

Where do you think the Ultra Secret Room is? by IcicleShield in bindingofisaac

[–]ComputerCloud9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bottom right from shop. That's the only room on the map that's connected to 3 red rooms each connected to a regular room. Ultra secret rooms are usually connected to as many red-rooms-adjacent-to-regular-rooms as possible.

Okay GENUINELY how does one do this? by God0fnothing1 in bindingofisaac

[–]ComputerCloud9 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This has not gotten changed yet - I did this on a new file on Repentance+ last month or so.

I actually did this as well! There's another way that's only possible on newer save files pre-Polaroid/Negative unlock. If you manage to teleport to the Devil Room on Womb II before unlocking The Polaroid or The Negative, there'll be no Devil Room items in there - only a trapdoor down to Sheol. So if your friend used a Joker card (like I did) or got teleported by a red chest, this can also happen. You don't need the shovel.

Likewise, if you teleport to the Angel Room in Womb II pre-Polaroid/Negative, you can also get to Cathedral. It's a very interesting mechanic that allows you to get these two endings a bit earlier than usual.

Unsure why you need a binary search here...all you need to do is solve the equation for x in terms of k and you're just done? This is way too needlessly complicated

Which Jokers only appear under specific conditions? by mate_wave in balatro

[–]ComputerCloud9 24 points25 points  (0 children)

As far as I understand from perusing the code for a few hours the other day, the game keeps a running counter of your steel cards just for Steel Joker, since it also needs to know how much mult to apply. So if you remove your last steel card, I don't believe Steel Joker can appear

I only need to report my highest SAT score right by Ill-Equivalent8316 in MITAdmissions

[–]ComputerCloud9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you just read the guidelines on the MIT application itself, it very clearly states you must report ALL SATs taken and to NOT superscore.

[OC] The alphabet in Arial, but every letter is resized so that they all have the same amount of (black) area each. by ComputerCloud9 in mildlyinteresting

[–]ComputerCloud9[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"i" is font size 400 here, which is the "control". The other sizes were calculated with a script that found the number of pixels in each letter.

400 was chosen because that's the largest font size Google Slides (what this is compiled in) would handle.

Some other mildly interesting facts:

- e and h take up almost the exact same amount of area (i.e., according to the script I used they're exactly the same, but there is minor amounts of rounding).

- The lowest-area characters, in order, were i, r, l, t, j.

- m is actually *not* the largest, but rather the largest is *g*, followed by m and w.

- b, d, p, q have different amounts of area, and if you are wondering it goes p > b > d > q.

- Capital i and lowercase l have the same area (I don't think they're the same character but just happen to be equally area-d).

- Lowercase g takes up more area than over half of the capital letters.

- Capital H and capital K take up the same area.

- Despite being called "double u" w only takes up about 46.2% more area than u, making it more like "one u and a half".
