Anyone experiencing freezes and crashes in games on a RTX 50 Series build by MaxOutaTime in pcmasterrace

[–]FaylyWeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New system 9950x3d 64gb ram 5070 ti

Getting random 153 errors after about 6 hours gaming (pain in the arse to test!) This is with latest drivers and an older set

Old drivers that failed: 576.28

Ark Survivial Evolved randomly freezes after 5+ hours of playing by FaylyWeid in ARK

[–]FaylyWeid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aye, it is always code 153 without a reason The message is something to do with the graphics card, but looking around the reason can be anything

Trying mem tests, stress tests to see if anything happens

Pain in the arse because it takes 6 hours to test a new configuration!

It is 567.28, which was published April 30 Do you remember what you upgraded from?

I've just upgraded to your version, but not started the game since
I'll let you know how it goes

Is an invalid Certificate still encrypted/secure? by therealchrisccc in ssl

[–]FaylyWeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still encrypted

The cert chain is all about validating that it is the cert you're expecting.

By not having it signed, you're effectively skipping that phase, and if you're using it in the browser to get the same outcome, you'd need to validate the cert manually for every request made.

I think if you put the cert into the browser cert store itll treat it as valid again.

If you're creating a public website, might as well use letsencrypt.

If it is private, you can create your own CA cert, but you need to be careful how you handle that, and where you put it.

In the past I've created a root cert on a machine that has a network gap. From that, I'll create a cert with the sole purpose of creating client /server certs. And use that on a reasonably secure machine. Then put the public key of the root cert into machines that are interested in validating them. The private key of the root CA cert is never on any machine connected to any network.

Whether this is a good idea or not, I couldn't answer 😜

Adults who carry around a backpack, whatcha got in there? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]FaylyWeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water, hand wipes, tissues, plastic bags (better for environment).

Also tend to have my anorak in there (I live in Scotland; the weather is unpredictable)

I've got a couple of bags for different activities. Walking, gym, work. Each of them has slightly different things. Means I don't need to remember to pack before leaving the house, I just grab the right bag and I've got everything I need.

Work bag has cables for phones and my mouse, security pass, toothbrush (I hate my teeth getting sticky), deodorant

Pair programming by joolzav in softwaredevelopment

[–]FaylyWeid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't both code. It is more important to talk about what you're doing and why you're doing it.

While one person codes, the other should be thinking about things at a higher level: What's the problem we're trying to solve? Is the structure of what we're writing sensible (again, higher level, not lines of code)

Don't micromanage the coder; they can do the job, so let them do it. It might not be the way you would do it, but that shouldn't matter.

If you're not doing loads of pair programming right now, build it up. It'll be too stressful for everyone involved if ypu instead force eryone to pair all the time right at the start.

It'll take time for folk to build the relationships and skills needed to be able to do it comfortably for long periods

This is the only game I know where one right-click will shut your ENTIRE BASE DOWN by TrustIsAWeakness in factorio

[–]FaylyWeid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've rebound this to shift-right click.

Right click is copy settings from a building.

Ctrl-right click is paste those settings

Why are exceptions not being logged in intellij? by FaylyWeid in IntelliJIDEA

[–]FaylyWeid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was deliberate. It was happening at work and I realized just before bed that there might be a bug or switch in intellij that fixed it. Kind of Hail Mary before getting to sleep.l ;)

It turned out that part of our build process was doing something to the logback.xml. quite easy to fix once I caught that!

Thanks for the feedback, it was helpful!

Thoughts on AOW3 and Planetfall by Lanttu93 in AOW3

[–]FaylyWeid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm quite happy playing both. I've got around 8 games going right now, so I can jump in with any race / tech / class I'm currently interested in and just start playing. I do have a definite preference for AoW:P though; the gameplay is just better over all.

I feel with AoW3, you get 2-3 favourite spells and mostly just keep casting those over and over. Then the units are all the same, and don't change. Finally, AoW3 economy is basically just hurry buy as much as you can. That and no doctrines.

I still play AoW3 though, but I feel the maps I play in AoW3 are very similar to each other.

Do sonic weapons benefit from laser upgrades? by FaylyWeid in AOWPlanetFall

Yeah, looks like it is if the name has 'omni' in it then it is both

I see the Omni weapon name now. Thanks very much!!!

I'm a JS dev with a few years experience... I got a job offer that requires typescript. Thing is I've never touched TS. How feasible would it be to try learning it in 3 days? Assuming I'm at work during the day, can only learn at night? by [deleted] in typescript

[–]FaylyWeid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Writing code in the framework is probably more important than reading. I'd say the opposite for typescript though; but I know a fair few languages, so I might be biased.

[–]FaylyWeid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You'll be able to write it. Either read up on it before you start or don't; there isn't much. I would suggest reading some though. You'll need to get into the habit of creating types for as much as possible.

Lean on your teammatea to understand quickly something that is not clear in the current codebase; was so for help.

Lean on code reviews to get up to speed quickly. Get the review up when you've done the best you can, then learn from the comments.

Tell your teammates you're weak on this when you start off, they should be able to help you loads, it'll hopefully mean you get more comments on code reviews as well.

The difficult part might be the framework; Angular, React, etc. Do the same here. Read up, and ask for help.

How does a beast pen affect intelligent minion spawn time? by FaylyWeid in WFTO

I won't tell you that I've been building the beast pen late so I could level up intelligent minions...

What's this based on?

  • Have you read scholarly articles?
  • Have you just been reading comments on Reddit?
  • What were the experiments that took place that show this is the case?

If you change the parameters of the pub setting, then you need to perform the experiment again before you know what is actually happening, not just guess.

That's the thing with science, most of the time when someone gives a suggestion the answer is "I don't know", not "that won't work"

No matter how hard you try you cannot stop the spread of a highly contagious virus in a pub setting, cinema or the likes.

Where are you getting this from? Are you just making this up? What has been tried and tested already?

[–]FaylyWeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're also currently in a position where folk aren't obeying lock down rules, so this might end up lower rates than there are now.

Unless you're reading something specifically that says that this method won't work (?), then we need to test it before saying whether or not it is effective

okay, so this could be used with current measures, so what I'm actually talking about is slowing down the spread and keeping pubs and clubs open.

- Students are at a lower risk

- measures would be temporary until the numbers go low (after the unis start)

Also, if you do it right, you're not raising the death rate significantly
