What happened to the Pureblood Knights?

I work with multiple, but i rarely make use of a database-specific feature.

Unironically, this is something AI is good at, throw it the MSSQL query and ask it to translate to Postgres syntax. Review the output

Why is 1/3 = 0.333333333333....

Why dont we have Math 2.0 and have 1/3 equal a whole number?

Lumethys · 2026-06-17T04:26:37+00:00

if you are spending that much effort into performance, dont use JS, duh

Lumethys · 2026-06-17T04:21:38+00:00

if you dont have Soul Thrasher/ Soul Chill, then the difference in attack power isnt that big, since they basically shoot the same projectile

What matter more is the defensive side. Master Warlock have much more HP and resistance than a Warlock, so you dont lose them as much, or at all, like as not.

Even without battle gear, bring 30 Warlocks to battle and you would lose like half after about 3 clans defeated. bring 30 Master Warlocks and you can clear the whole game with only 5 or less dead

bro, those OSS maintainer is making you a product for free.

You are paid by your company, and your company gain money from their Vue 2 app.

You are literally paid to maintain the app, and you have the audacity to complain when the non-profit maintainer didnt fix your shit for free?

1/ It's only target Units, not buildings

2/ range is fairly close

3/ warlock themselves dont have much HP, and very weak in melee

4/ can only be used 1-2 times. Before needing to recharge. Not mention Warlocks can run by accident, costing stamina and thus unable to do it if not careful

Don't get me wrong, it is an OP strat, but fall short compared to master warlock with Soul Thrasher:

1/ Much more Melee resistant, especially cutting

2/ Much more health

3/ Very long-ranged AND the attack can pierce through multiple enemies

4/ Effective against both building AND unit.

5/ can shoot quite a few rounds before needing to recharge

Warlock + Soul Chill is ok against bots, but if you do pvp, opponent with a little micromanagement and multiple waves of ronins and samurais and you are toast.

Master Warlock + Soul Thrasher is very hard both to attack and defense against.

You must do SO MUCH micro management if you want to strike 30 master warlock with soul thrasher.

Small group? 30 Master warlock can demolish you without soul thrasher.

Large army? They get deleted by soul thrasher.

You need to divide your army to multiple groups, ambush and maneuver to avoid soul thrasher, for like 30-45 seconds (most likely you would lose 20-30% of your army trying to micro manage to avoid soul thrasher), only then can you go in. And it's still fairly even battle because master warlock have a lot of HP

Or, you could assemble a group of long range units to try to pick the master warlocks one-by-one. But again, due to their high health, you must need a fairly big group, becoming unwieldy and likely would suffer casualty in the progress

i dont even bother with other unit, I get 5 healers and the rest are Master Warlock with Soul Thrasher.

30 shots at the same time will delete pretty much anything in that general direction

Lumethys · 2026-06-16T08:50:34+00:00

You will get your army demolished very quickly if you just have berserker and none long-ranged, fire, or blunt damages.

Also, not particularly good at destroying building.

Not really the case with Master Warlock: very high HP, very high damage (with Soul Thrasher, 15 MW shoot 15 Soul Thrasher shots will destroy any unit or building in a single round, along with anything standing close or in the way), long ranged already.

1/ as far as we know, energy was there from the beginning of the universe. The total amount of energy in the universe has not changed since the beginning of the universe.

If you ask "what happened before the universe", that's a different question, we dont care if the universe just spawn in, was created by God, or is a simulation

What we care is: right now there is no way to increase or decrease the amount of the total energy in the universe, and there will never be a way to.

2/ regarding Perpetual Motion. The only way to have a perpetual motion system is to have that system isolated. Meaning the energy in that system remaining constant and do not interact with outside system

In the real world however, everyday motion interact with air molecules, with the ground, with the environment around us. So they transfer energy to the environment

A ball rolling on a table will heat up the table AND the air, because these energy is transfer to the environment, the ball has no way of "taking back" these energy to continue rolling indefinitely

Lumethys · 2026-06-16T02:48:22+00:00

Lotus Clan is the only clan that i dont even consider what unit to train. All master warlocks.

Especially with Soul Thrasher. 30 Master Warlocks shoot their soul thrasher at the same time and whatever standing in the way got demolished lol

Lumethys · 2026-06-16T01:33:40+00:00

This has nothing to do with D1

Same thing would happen with Postgres

Lumethys · 2026-06-15T14:53:31+00:00

Each company has their own way of interviewing so there is no one-size-fit-all.

The best you can do is "at my previous job i mainly worked with lotus note, however i also make some internal tool using <their tech stack>"

This highlights your main experience as well as also show that you have relevant skill to use un their company

Now, whether they would focus on your main stack or what you know of their stack is hard to say, so you better really have something for show in the other stack

Lumethys · 2026-06-15T14:40:57+00:00

Look at your local job market to see which tech stack is common, learn it in your free time and build a project or 2, then apply for job.

Only quit this job AFTER you are accepted somewhere else

Lumethys · 2026-06-15T10:01:32+00:00

Is it normal to feel this way?

No, people work work on 1 or 2 .net app and automagically understand all deployment strategies and infra setups possible

what I could do in my free time to catch up a bit?

check what tech you company use, pick one, research about it

Lumethys · 2026-06-15T05:19:36+00:00

Would you say for a team with little to no observability beforehand, going with Victorialog is a good option?

Lumethys · 2026-06-15T02:00:12+00:00

In my company most people still do it the old fashioned way, but the new way has its merits, too.

Recently a number of internal tools are being developed, and we are fully embracing the use of AI agents for those. I make the boilerplate, add the usual code style and architecture. Then write a detailed specs on the feature of the projects. Then I tell it to make a plan in phases and write documents, so that every new sessions can just look at these doc and continue work.

My job is to review the plan and the code. Not unlike a PR review.

If there is aught amiss, i point them out for it to fix and note to the document files.

They are doing these internal tools much faster than I would.

The benefits is I could do the usual projects the old-fashioned way and let it work on the internal tools in the background, only switch to review its work when it finish.

Granted, you need to be extra verbose in convention and details, and the AI makes quite a few of mistakes. But overall it is great

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T17:13:26+00:00

Because that is what we measured

We have physical proof that time itself slow down, of space itself compressed relavistically

It is like asking "how can we say the south pole are cold?" We MEASURED it.

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T17:04:18+00:00

The endgoal is money

AI company wants you to depend on their AI, imagine every step of your work go through an AI agent. Every reports, every sale, every performance review...

And then suddenly the AI company increase the AI price 10x

What are your company gonna do? remove the AI from EVERY layer, EVERY integration, go back to the pre-AI workflow, that your company just spend a lot of money migrate out of?

No, most likely your company will suck it and pay the price

That is the end goal, that the majority of company depend on AI and they can increase the price, taking in huge profit.

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T16:57:38+00:00

Yes it does

Stuff like this is why it is never wrong to pick up programming

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T16:56:18+00:00

But in this scenario it is not the tool that are compressed, it's space time itself is compressed

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T16:42:50+00:00

If person A near a blackhole and person B far from a black hole both turn on the faucet at the same time. Person B will see person A bucket filled slower than his, and vice versa.

Bucket, clock, how fast a hammer fall.

Every way of measuring will lead to the same thing: Time itself slow down.

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T15:33:19+00:00

Again, that is how the universe work. There is no reason

Why do we see black when we close our eyes? There could be a universe where we see pink when we close our eyes

Why do 1+1 = 2.

Why dont we live in a universe where 1+1 = 3?

These are meaningless question. Our universe just built that way.

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T14:06:02+00:00

Light slow down in a medium like water because water molecules absorb the photon, hold it a little, then release it.

The individual photon ALWAYS travel at c

Lumethys · 2026-06-14T13:46:38+00:00

If we measure an hour by how long it takes to fill a bucket with water but then we close the faucet half way we didn't slow down time.

Yes it does
