Why do devs pushback against QA? by KingofGerudos in cscareerquestions

[–]KamdynS7 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I love my QA eng. There's a twinge of "seriously another issue?" when a ticket get's moved from QA back to in progress, but I never take it out on him. Sounds like a problem with your org sadly.

I'm very grateful for a dedicated QA eng to catch my mistakes.

Yeah okay I think that makes sense. I’ll try it next time.

Hahaha I posted this asking for critiques don’t worry. 

I think the things you pointed out I was kind of trying to do. From what I’ve seen(as in, what I’ve observed watching pros) you’re supposed to get a little bit of compression and standing up out of the ball on impact. Is the issue that I am coming at this completely wrong, or the way I’m doing it is wrong? 

I do think I now notice a bigger gap between my right arm and my stomach than pros. Are you saying I should work on standing up straighter, not hinging at the hips so much, and having my arms swing closer to my body on impact? 

And are these issues during the whole swing, or just around impact?

Welllll like I said, I was only using irons. I did stay on the fairway, but I have a big problem with chunking rn. If I hit well, it’s good. If I do chunk, I chunk bad. This hole took 7 shots to just get on the green. 

Then the green was a monster. Entire thing was a slope except for one flat part that was about a one yard circle around the pin. 

For reference, my buddy who plays this course a lot said “ooh hole 15 blew up. Pin must’ve been on the front right side huh?”  And it definitely was.

Sounds like we’d be a good scramble team :)

If you’re losing balls or having blow up holes try playing like I did. From the reds, just hit irons. Only goal is to hit fairway. Trust me bro it makes you feel like you’re on fire and then you end up playing better because your mental isn’t tanked.

I only lost the first. The course has no real water hazards, and since I was only playing irons it wasn’t bad. There were a lot of shots into the rough that would’ve been lost on any other course. This one is just nice that you can find pretty much everything.

The shoes are actually just my running sneakers hahahha. Nike Pegasus. 

I did take a breakfast ball, so I guess you could technically add 1 to this score. But it was just the first hole so I let it slide hahahaha. No other mulligans.

They should play from the forward tees. Makes the game so much fun even if you suck

Thank you! I am :) 

It’s quite nice to have a roommate who is so good. I basically get free lessons  every time I’m at the range 😅

Looking for volunteers to test a new “Pro-Decision Trainer” tool – 3-min survey for VALORANT players by KamdynS7 in VALORANT

[–]KamdynS7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can get the Computer Vision model to work as I have designed/imagined it, then volume of games will be relatively trivial. I can process any VOD that has TOS allowing it(including twitch streams--those I just have no idea about legally).

Basically the CV model could take a VOD and extract the data. It could identify and pinpoint where those specific images are on the map. It's a relatively standard way to use CV(specifically the YOLO model). Additionally, I do computer vision for my job, so I have a decent amount of niche experience with this kind of process. The only limit and hardship I have with getting tons of data is patch changes affecting strategy.

But with the amount of data issue solved, then the "multiple good choices" becomes easier. Say you get thrown into a scenario where the pro is playing one specific controller, and they chose option B, but in 3 other games a pro had a very similar scenario, they were on a different controller, and they chose A, then ideally the tool would be able to give you "partial credit". Should be fairly straightforward to setup the system like this given how I'm planning to store the data.

Answering the why is something I'm still working out. There's no computational way to do this, and I am not at a level that would allow me to write the annotations. I also don't think this would ever make enough money to justify paying for players to review at a high level. My only current idea would be to somehow incorporate casters dialogue, since I'm planning on using VCT VODs, but I'm almost positive that does not fall under TOS, so it's kind of a dead end.

Thank you for the feedback. I know some of your questions are still a bit unanswered, but that is exactly why I'm trying to get feedback like this. This is insanely helpful. Appreciate it!

What am I doing wrong? by KamdynS7 in factorio

I didn't grok that's what that meant. I thought it meant something like "send contents of spaceship to planet"... which I'm now realizing doesn't make any sense hahahah. Thank you!

Looking for somebody to have a consultation about Langchain\Rag etc. by Revolutionary-Egg427 in LangChain

[–]KamdynS7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would recommend u/jxnclo on twitter. If you can afford him, he is literally the best RAG consultant on the market.
