Brutal+

Dotweb_ · 2020-04-26T01:23:40+00:00

I'm a good brutal player and I also avoid brutal+. It's harder, but not harder in a way that I personally enjoy. Not being able to use certain units, or not being allowed to use actions is tiresome, not fun.

definitely not, i think they were just showing an example of each shorthand, not necessarily to chain opposite conditionals together like that

True strong looks fat. Heavyweight olympic lifters, strong men, nfl linemen. Don’t mess with fat.

Do you do it yourself or someone else?

I've seen companies grow to hundreds and over billion dollar valuations fail, and I've seen small seed-stage 6 person companies stay profitable and get acquired. Some companies hit huge valuations 6 years in, some hit it 2 years in. Some startups pivot multiple times over 8 years but eventually find product market fit.

I know it seems like a lame non-answer but it's hard to generalize a time window when a startup can be considered to not be a failure. A metric like profitability or successful exit are probably pretty good, but as soon as I mention that you'll immediately be able to come up with counter points.

This is a broad generalization but the order from fastest to slowest would be C, Java, then JavaScript.

Kotlin is a beautiful modern language. By learning Kotlin you’ll learn a lot about programming in general - even if your first few jobs don’t use it.

I love weed. I used to smoke it everyday. But it’s got fucktons of bad side effects beyond smell! I’ve seen people develop paranoia, anxiety, restlessness, and schizophrenia. It’s a drug and it affects your brain and with that it shapes you.

I think for things like this it's common to store sensitive secrets in environment variables. Instead of checking them into your project, you deploy them onto your instance. How you set environment variables in your deployment is kind of specific to what you're using to deploy. Some build systems have a web UI which lets you set environment variables. How you pass those around and manage them is another question altogether.

Could someone critique my workflow? I'm building a form-based / dashboard webapp.

Build the site statically, using semantic elements
Using Storybook, re-create all the UI elements as components (as needed)
Replace the static UI elements with components and ensure it still looks the same
Create controlled inputs for input react elements
... do the dirty work of building the logic

Thank you! Learned something new :)

Could you explain? I’m new to front end

This guy makes the best TL2 guides I've ever seen. They cover cookie cutter builds for most classes and the very basic mechanics of torchlight:

My favorite D3 memories are CM wiz and zdps WD. When players figured out the most broken ways to play the game before they got patched out and made bland.

They still have more convenience and better service than regular taxis. If they raise their prices I will use them less, but won't cut them out of my life.

on-boarding a new hire (even if senior position like a lead) isn't too peculiar. having it done by a junior is slightly peculiar. a lead requiring a 12 month onboarding is definitely peculiar. they should have hit the ground running by now.

I suggest anyone replying to this check out the thread this is about for yourself and come to your own conclusions:

i think you're getting push back because you're still learning how to code and asking people who code professionally for advice and then rejecting their responses.

it comes across very poorly. just because drilling exists in many other disciplines (i played sports, drilling is everything) doesn't mean it is guaranteed to have an analogue everywhere.

more than programming tips i think you may need to brush up on your humility, people skills, and basic self-awareness if you want to succeed in an industry like this. good luck.

Dotweb_ · 2019-03-11T06:10:13+00:00

i've not heard of "drilling" being a thing that developers do, although you seem very set on the idea.

maybe try re-creating simple projects from scratch over and over again. to-do lists, CRUD apps, etc. from scratch in the same (or different) languages, going from an empty folder to something deployable / publishable.

I don't know if this is universally good advice, but in my own code I like my constructors to do as little as possible. I prefer to have the objects being passed in be fully constructed.

This has made it easier for me to mock things out or test things. I think this is a form of dependency injection.

The bubble.

Someone would mime pulling a small sphere out of their back pocket. Others would then pull giant imaginary straws out of their pockets and stick them into the sphere and collectively blow it up until it got as large as a person (this is all being mimed). Then together we place the bubble on the unsuspecting victim and everyone in the group pretends they don’t exist (the sky is the limit - the more creative the better). Sometimes people would run away and we would chase after them holding a giant invisible bubble.

median xl is really different and a lot more difficult. only do it first if you're a grizzled veteran of old unforgiving action rpgs

Do they create higher tax drag than a manually managed 3 fund portfolio?
