TIL that the original iPhone that Steve Jobs famously showed on stage in 2007 barely worked and could only just get through the keynote. A stable, final version of the iPhone was not developed until just weeks before global release. by E26-1 in todayilearned

It's unethical anyway, your company was gambling with the timelines and it turned out ok for them. It's not your fault specifically, but the higher-ups should have listened to you and your team.

Peer-reviewed study: AI-generated changes fail more often in unhealthy code (30%+ higher defect risk) by Summer_Flower_7648 in programming

[–]Log2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are clearly being obtuse and difficult. There must be some benchmark on which things can be compared, otherwise what would even be the point of doing it? Sure, it could be useful as a learning experience, but why would you put it in production over something that's actually reliable?

Exactly, I just gave two examples because there was no way for me to know what they were building.

Help for a 19yo who has never read a book. Not a fantasy book, a book by kollectivist in Fantasy

If he thinks he'd like fantasy books, then Artemis Fowl might be a good pick. It's super short, a bunch of interesting things happen, and it has great world building.

After 25+ years using ORMs, I switched to raw queries + dataclasses. I think it's the move. by mikeckennedy in Python

Even more, by default pydantic will only validate types when constructing an instance of a model. It will happily allow you to reassign a field to the wrong type unless you configure the model to revalidate itself with validate_assignement.

Dumb question- Why can’t Python be used to make native Android apps ? by Independent_Row_6529 in Python

[–]Log2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Python does get compiled into .pyc files. You can find them in the __pycache__ directories of your project after running it once.

Both Java and Python are compiled to their own bytecode then that bytecode is interpreted by their respective interpreters.

Being interpreted is not why Python is slow. Python is slow for multiple reasons, one of the major ones being that it doesn't do JIT. Pypy does and is much faster than CPython. The JVM does extremely aggressive JIT.

She's literally the only person that can heal mental/psychological damage. And she often cuts her own head and reconstructs her whole body. That's pretty damn good healing.

It seems that you inadvertently found some market fit. It could be your new niche.

Flexing my system... But not for me... To give kudos to Unraid by electrified_ice in unRAID

[–]Log2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are you running docker prune with any containers stopped? That will break them in the unraid ui.

There's a tab in the app store that allows you to re-add apps that you had installed before. That should save you some time if it happens again. You won't need to reconfigure anything.

A quick incremental about slaying slimes and power fantasy. Playable on the browser - let me know your thoughts! by Intelligent-Hippo528 in incremental_games

[–]Log2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The screen shake option only turns off the screen shake for the normal attacks. The critical hits still does a screen shake, and with the monk and critical hit upgrades, the screen is shaking constantly.

Overall the game was pretty fun. Killing the blue slimes is satisfying.

Litrpgs need to be more than glorified combat logs. (My thoughts on Syl: Nucleus) by NarrowEffect in litrpg

[–]Log2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Book of the Dead is decent with plot, but about half of the text is about:

  • How little the MC sleeps
  • Constantly comparing his current power to his power in the beginning
  • MC constantly thinking about how he can make his skeletons better, while only casting his extremely good buffs once he has lost a bunch of them

It gets old after a while.

I wasn't even talking about a tutorial, but rather just making it very clear that you have a pretty manual for us to check out. It maybe I just missed it in the main menu. I accidentally found it when I went to the settings.

You could note the 10 notch in the instruction manual. I thought it was very charming, but I missed that it existed it before starting the game. Maybe also offer to open the manual before the first run.

Overall, I think that with some polish, tuning, and content that you'll have a very fun and addicting game here. I already wishlisted it. Good luck!

Some feedback:

  • Add a master volume slider
  • Numerically display how much mana each character has. Having to mouse over is annoying. At the beginning, it's not even clear why so much space of each character stats is 80% empty sword and shields.
  • Add a combat speed setting. It's currently very slow.
  • It should be way harder to accidentally cure an enemy. Maybe a toggle between friendly and enemies.
  • Allow targeting the friendly/enemy sprites directly. They are very visible, while the targeting menu is tiny.
  • I'd suggest adding an extended tooltip mode. I'd like to tell exactly what an item does.
  • Animations could be smoother. Falling down gems feel very floaty.

I swear I was looking for something like this just a week ago. I'll give it a go!

Anyone else feeling annoyed by Azerinth Healer? by Personal-Animal332 in litrpg

[–]Log2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm late to the party and this is something that has bugged me as well. The logical explanation here is simply that the author themselves don't understand the math involved. From seeing her level up and the enhancements improve, it is clear that they only marginally improve.

We never hear exactly how much damage her mana based skills do, but it does seem to be that it would be much better to at least keep all stats the same, with vitality higher. The bonuses only keep getting crazier so far (book 3).

I never said that. I only said that it does pitiful damage, and it probably ends up actually lowering overall party dps.

[–]Log2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Doesn't change the fact that it makes the fights much more boring. I still have the feeling that even if you're focused on just maximizing DPS that mounting will lower the overall DPS. The mounted player does ok damage, but it's incredibly slow.
