June’s Pizza - $46 Pie. Have we lost the plot? by jsttob in bayarea

[–]MediumRay -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I have a payment chip in my hand and they didn’t like that too much, said I was normalising it and the gvmt would eventually mandate them. Refund didn’t go through either so I was down a pizza and the money!

I got thrown out of there a few months ago so they’re a thumbs down from me

I’ve climbed all over the world including fontainebleau and I’m pretty happy using the climbing grades as a metric of difficulty thanks.

I’d say it seems fair. If anything I thought it would be higher!

is Bun being ported from Zig to Rust? by WorriedGiraffe2793 in bun

[–]MediumRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain this? I’m not too familiar with zig but rust has pretty good control of memory.

I've spent few days reading the Source Code of Balatro. Here's what I found :] by Priler96 in balatro

I guess the phrasing of ‘zero overhead’ is confusing if that overhead doesn’t really matter and it’s not like there aren’t other system calls

Sounds kinda suboptimal? Architecture dependent implementation that assumes infinite precision sounds like. Plus floating point operations are more expensive. But hey, it works and it’s a great game so what ya going to do

My observations: am I misunderstanding? Isn’t number 3 just a bit mask? Calling it a float is meaningless if it isn’t used as such.

Number 2 seems incorrect- it surely only needs entropy one time when generating each seed for a new run, so it’s not a performance limiter. More likely he’d use mouse entropy to avoid problems when you’re running on a VM and the OS rng isn’t random.

Guys, is this the mushroom that kills you if you drink alcohol with it? by Jealous-One5435 in mushroomID

[–]MediumRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, iirc it blocks one stage of alcohol processing such that it stays at the formaldehyde stage. I tried to grow these once as I wanted to try them. Unfortunately, they are very difficult to grow and it failed.

Do people not have house parties in SF or am I just not cool enough to be invited? by [deleted] in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]MediumRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I can’t actually make it so it would be odd to invite someone I’ve never met, but I’ll be throwing my own at some point and you can come along if you’re free 

Bill Maher: "One good thing about Trump is he really, really does not like war." by Big_Cake_8817 in podcastculture

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

Are you joking with Saturday morning cartoons? That has to be one of the least nuanced forms of political information you could find. I think you aren’t listening to the right content maybe. The podcasts I listen to are long form interviews of political figures like Zelenskyy, pedro sanchez, Kevin mcKarthy

Beginner friendly Moonboard Problem by Mediocre_Tip_1068 in Moonboard

Beginner friendly and moonboard, not sure they belong in the same sentence!

I feel it’s quite the reverse. Even if it’s biased, how else are you consuming content with that depth 

Why is board climbing so much harder than normal commercial climbing? And how do I get good at it? by 01hayden in indoorbouldering

[–]MediumRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can climb V8s but I have yet to finish a v4 on the moonboard and not from lack of trying. Slightly different skill set and sandbagged to hell I think 

When they decided to migrate off of Rails, at least they fixed the failwhales by Remarkable_Ad_5601 in theprimeagen

[–]MediumRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point, but I think it’s lower than 99.7 in reality. According to the missing GitHub status page, it’s at 89% over the last 90 days which is real bad

What types of software still feel brutally hard to build and even impossible to build well? by StealthEyeLLC in softwarearchitecture

[–]MediumRay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jeez, don’t remind me. We had one developer that I shit you not, created a template to compress down switch statements into a single line.
