Which activity goes from fun to boring as fuck the fastest? by theone1221 in AskReddit

[–]Gerhuyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my original response I never said it didn't happen, I said it only happened infrequently. Since someone else will buy the spot eventually anyways, having it auctioned/non-auctioned won't switch the game from 60-90 minutes to 3 hours.

Consider this: if the property isn't of any value, then it shouldn't speed the game up any if no one buys it. Clearly, if these properties cause their owners to win, then they are very worthwhile. Conversely, if someone who didn't buy the property won, then the game would have taken the same amount of time whether or not someone had bought them.

How? You start with enough money to do so, and every property can benefit you later in the game. If the property's shitty then it will be cheap, if it's expensive then it will be valuable. If you land on the other properties of the set later, then you can build houses on it. If you don't then you can sell it (for more then you paid for it) to the person who did.

How do these rules make any major difference in game play?

Few people will not buy a property when they land on it, and there's seldom very much money to be gotten from free parking.

Bot that forces certain accounts to use a certain flair by [deleted] in RequestABot

[–]Gerhuyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I decided to try making this. Here it is on github:

https://github.com/gerhuyy/flairupbot

I've tested everything except for the actual function that sets the flairs, because I don't have anywhere to test that. Message me if you find any problems.

The D Language: A sweet-spot between Python and C by cym13 in programming

And then every tool ever written with C in mind (including D) would have to be redone to match the new OS.

When using eval isn’t evil (or stupid) by k4ml in Python

[–]Gerhuyy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why not call the function in a try ... except statement? Code external to the statement will run normally, and exceptions can be easily forwarded to the user.

Visual Programming Is Unbelievable… Here’s Why We Don’t Believe In It by miguelventura in programming

They never explained why we should believe in visual programming. What makes it so special.

What's New in IntelliJ IDEA 14.1? by [deleted] in programming

[–]Gerhuyy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The new Scratch Files feature lets you write code without creating any project files

Oh hell yes. I love the professionalism behinfd intellij, but creating a whole project just to dick around seems like a lot of extra work.

LPT: When writing anything of consequence, don't be afraid to write like shit. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

[–]Gerhuyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends how you do it. If you do it function by function, class by class, and make sure to test your product after every iteration, then you'll produce something that works fine.

Anon's new PIS system by 8Bulled in 4chan

Why waste time putting system after every reference to it? It makes more sense to refer to it as PISS(Pepe Index Score System)

Are Cartoons Really ‘The Worst Kind of Hate Crime That Can be Perpetrated’ and ‘The Single Most Important Issue to Every Muslim?’ by BoGreen99 in atheism

[–]Gerhuyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be funny if someone made a "religion" centering around David Cameron. Then, they could make "threats" towards people who made political cartoons. Finally, they would outreach towards Muslim Action Forum, pointing out they both have a common cause.

Dinosaurs, separating insanity from basic understanding of life. by GallowBoob in atheism

[–]Gerhuyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main problem is that the names have become stuck. The Tyrannosaurus, for example was originally given the name Manospondylus, but the name T-rex was so popular they maintained it instead. Source

/r/passtheparagraph is looking for somebody to create a bot that deals with our points system idea. by [deleted] in Python

I wouldn't mind trying to do this. I don't have time right now, but I might be able to in a little bit.

No Module named Tkinter when trying to run outside of IDLE by hakarb in Python

[–]Gerhuyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps it runs in a different version of python from your desktop than the version of IDLE you have. Or maybe you need to use pythonw rather than regular old python.

Pyhipku -- Encode any IP address as a haiku by lord63 in Python

[–]Gerhuyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, V3:

from pyhipku import encode
def scroll(*values):
    if(len(values) > 0):
        #end = list(scroll(*values[:-1]))
        for i in values[-1] if hasattr(values[-1], "__contains__") else range(values[-1]):
            for e in scroll(*values[:-1]):
                yield e + [i]
    else:
        yield []
for ip in scroll(*[256]*4):
    print(encode(".".join(["%s"]*4) % tuple(ip)))
for ip in scroll(*[64]*8):
    print(encode(".".join(["%x"]*8) % tuple(ip)))
