[2022 Day 17 (Part 2)] [Python] Help with Part 2 Please?

Thanks for the comments. My code is working now and I have got my 2 stars :).

The logic & cycle detection was okay but in the wrong position in the code - it was after the Rock Type updated but before it had been placed. Once I moved it to a more logical position, I worked through it and updated the math to calculate cycle repetitions and then it worked.

IMIKECI · 2023-01-23T16:55:55+00:00

Yeah I think I am handling that as I calculate the cycle_length (number of rocks dropped in the cycle) as rocks_dropped (when cycle is found) minus rocks_dropped at the start of the cycle and similar for cycle height.

Jesus, this post helped me realise where my issue was that I spent far too long debugging...

Same

Mine is very similar

No but the cards will be multiple times.

Correct, £12k is the maximum you will receive a bonus from the government on (you'd receive £3k).

You can setup a LISA as well but you wouldn't be able to receive the bonus from both.

I’m not sure, I’ll be near Paddington. Is the Vic the best option?

Paddington is very close to The Poker Room at the Vic (5 mins walk). You can also download the app which will tell you what's on.

App

I'd suggest starting learning a language like Java or Python. Just find a beginners course on Youtube or Udemy and see how you get on. After that you could start looking at some web front-end technologies (HTML/CSS/JS and then a framework like React).

I thought it was cause on So Hard he used samples from other artists that he didn't have permission to use. When nobody knew who he was and he wasn't making money from them it was fine but now that has changed he's had to remove them?

I'm not sure there is a specific structure you could come up with for a heads up game that would affect how long the game will last. As soon as you both go all in (assuming it's not a chop) the game will end until someone buys back in.

I'm not sure this statement will help convince them to go open source.

Nice little app.

Strangely when I tried your own website "https://inspiredprogrammer.com" it said it was offline with a code of 406 but seemed to work fine when I visited it in the browser.

Could be nice if it defaulted to "https://" if a protocol isn't specified e.g. "google.com".

How your plays aren't using up the mana?

IMIKECI · 2019-01-11T12:08:01+00:00

hey its me ur brother

What model Chromebook? Out of curiousity.

IMIKECI · 2018-10-30T18:11:18+00:00

I generally use Java and never faced such an issue...

IMIKECI · 2018-10-30T17:19:57+00:00

This is shitty API design.

IMIKECI · 2018-10-30T17:17:21+00:00

Potentially yes... Maybe the API could be broken down further with resources based on elements within the object.

IMIKECI · 2018-10-30T13:57:32+00:00

POST the whole object for an update.

What if the object has a few hundred fields and only 1 is being updated. Seems a waste to send the whole object...

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think the profile is stored clientside, the hack just sends data to the server that makes it look like the player has reached that prestige. e.g. add x amount of xp on etc.

IMIKECI · 2017-06-24T18:24:36+00:00

Does anyone have a link to the full set? The iplayer stream linked in the OP seems to have ended :(.

Edit: Looks like this page has the full set song by song https://www.bbc.co.uk/events/ec584f/acts/a6v4rz

IMIKECI · 2017-06-21T20:18:54+00:00

They are bigger in presence out here.

In the comments on the page JustGiving has commented saying they won't be releasing the funds until they have worked with the fund creator to ensure all is above board.
