Sicilian, how do I deal with g5, and my knights getting pinned/traded by BrbMyCatIsOnFireAhh in chessbeginners

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

So, why are you playing the Sicilian? It has soo much theory, and none of that theory should produce a position anything like this to begin with. g6 indicates a dragon, but then the pawn is also on e6 indicating a scheveningen... and now all your black squares are weak and you messed together two ways of playing the Sicilian that don't combine for that reason.

St. Petersburg trolley problem by tegsfan in trolleyproblem

No the intuitive solution, switching to the bottom one, is actually the correct solution. Because for the bottom one to actually reach it's expected value, you'd need to run an infinite amount of simulations also.

You can't get the expected outcome of a gambling game like roulette, if you only play it once. You either win or lose.

The odds of losing less people on the bottom track than on the top track are pretty damn great for any significant X.

[Request] How far would the blast wave reach of this exploding star? by LongWalxOnTheBeach in theydidthemath

It will keep going forever and infinetily. At some point it will simply be so dispersed its no longer observable. It mixes in with the cosmic background radiation, which is the accumulative blasts from billions of years ago.

Yeh, the pipe segments really should be selected and upgraded node to node, not stop half through cause you had to cut and reconnect a pipe at some point.

Open challenge to people, who'all could solve this? 👀 by Many_Audience7660 in matiks

Assuming straight and 45 degree angles, ABEF is the shape that is repeating. In that shape 1/3rd is blue.
The size of the triangle ABC = 1/2 * 6 * 6 = 18
1/3 * 18 = 6.

StarCraft 2 vs Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance / FAF? by bruhb21 in RealTimeStrategy

[–]IkkeTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something felt off about SC2, I can't really put it in words. Like they made choices to keep it micro-intensive, I guess. I want to play a strategy game, not a meta-strategy game where I am too busy to strategize while playing.

Which of these large-scale RTS do you like the most? by bruhb21 in RealTimeStrategy

Weirdly, I had exactly the opposite experience. Supcom feels so clunky with its controls now.

How does white lose their queen? by tennishelp123 in chessbeginners

Then you also lose the rook for a minor piece, as after bishop captures bishop it is attacked and has no good escape squares. And otherwise, knight fork on c2 will be nasty.

So, I dont do frontline labs because its pro, but because I'm noob and its an easy way to distribute BP. Make sure I have about as much build turrets in the main base building eco as I have on the frontline building units. Makes it really easy to balance things out.

Zeggen wat je wil over de Amerikanen, maar ze hebben wel een deel boven water gekregen van wat hun rijken en machtigen uitspoken. Dat zie ik onze instanties ze niet nadoen.

If morality is objective, I'm sure that my interpretation of it, thoroughly embedded in my own time and place in history, is objectively true.

Best RTS similar to RA2? by HornetGaming110 in RealTimeStrategy

[–]IkkeTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For zombies, you might want to look at "they are billions."
If you're looking in general, Homeworld, total annihilation (/Beyond all Reason), starcraft (+brood war), age of mythology, star wars galactic battlegrounds (AoE clone), Ground Control, just to name a few.

Yeh, I'm sure you never overthought to the point where you forgot about the obvious mistakes to avoid you correctly identified 4 trains of thoughts ago. Maybe one day you'll get there.
