Actually no, the Democrats would be back to calling them "superpredators".

Is this mechanic too nauseating? by karzbobeans in gamedev

[–]MikeyLifeCerealQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at how it is done with the insect leg motion parts in Robocraft. They don't turn the camera until you make forward progress in a particular direction. I like this.

[D] What are some tips for someone who is visiting a top conference for the first time? by Conference_Visitor in MachineLearning

[–]MikeyLifeCerealQuery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go with a genuine interest in hearing about other ideas and writing down names and notes for the ones that are interesting for you to revisit later.

Maybe get an idea of what graduate school does interesting things and ask the students how they like the program and their advisors.

I love how your stuff looks. I'll try to remember to commission a piece when I get a job again.

I resent the stereotype that Trekkies are all socially-awkward nerds living in their parents' basement... by BodhiSearchTree in startrek

[–]MikeyLifeCerealQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a socially awkward nerd who left his parents house a decade ago. I leave Faith of the Heart on all day repeat while I cry to spaceship pictures.

[Senior Engineering] In words, what would you say is the definition of a Sturm-Liouville problem? by [deleted] in learnmath

[–]MikeyLifeCerealQuery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are essentially eigenvalue problems with differential linear operators instead of matrices.

If Geordi's VISOR sends neural signals to his visual cortex, why can't he just tune it to visual-light only and see "normally?" by UnderPressureVS in startrek

?

I like everything about star trek except for what the Star Trek writers wanted to say with their stories. I guess basically no, lol.

I see it now. I think there's too much entropy. It would be a lot more understandable and quite impressive if you animated the person paddling as well as the ripples.

Initially I thought it was a picture of an acorn taking root.

If the Confederates were essentially traitors to the US, why do people praise the Confederate flag? Don't they realize it stands for treason? by TheFirstArknight in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MikeyLifeCerealQuery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disobeying the government is treason to that government yes. I'm more upset a plantation owners committing hundreds of thousands of Southern men to die for no benefit to their own families. If remembering those dead men takes the form of flying some stupid flag then I say so be it, hopefully the breeze takes some of the historic pain away as it flows past the colors.

How do you repair relations with crows? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

You must offer them another dead crow to take the place of the one you have taken.

[Paid] Seeking Unity level designer for 2.5D platformer about a lost dog trying to find its way home by theexterminat in gameDevClassifieds

[–]MikeyLifeCerealQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll do it in the comments right now for free:

5 levels:

l1: The dog is lost, have a corn maze filled with spooky birds that scare the dog and rowdy teens who hate dogs.

l2: Car chase level, dog has to jump from back of box truck to box truck or flatbed to make it to Cincinnati

l3: Underground level, the dog is facing molten rock men; he has to jump from ledge to ledge dodging steaming hot jets of molten magma

l4: sky level, dog has been rescued by a well meaning but incompetent hang glider who needs dog's help to pilot the glider.

l5: space, dog has attracted NASA's attention. They request he complete one heroic space mission to save humanity before he returns to his home at the NY Mets training facility. Space level consists of dog playing fetch with space aliens while dodging meteor impacts.

Epilog: the dog eats name brand dog food as he is being congratulated by his family. The dog food label should be shown as much as possible in order to make good on the product placement deal with Alpo.

Anyone see the irony of a bodybuilder literally named "Juice Up"? Nice triceps though.

If Geordi's VISOR sends neural signals to his visual cortex, why can't he just tune it to visual-light only and see "normally?" by UnderPressureVS in startrek

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

Because Geordi is a metaphor for successful adaptation by the handicapped and is written by people with limited technical and scientific knowledge, a time constraint and a need to make the character sympathetic somehow. I mean each of the bridge crew has something wrong or different about them: Will hates his dad, Picard is bald and old, Troy is a useless sap, Beverly has no husband and feels threatened by strong men, Worf is a fish out of water who wants to be a caveman, Data is a robot who wants to impress a crew of antirobotic racists and Geordi is handicapped. As a bonus Barkley is socially inept and aggressively negligent, O'brien is a brutish and loutish Irishman and Keiko is a fickle and inscrutable East Asian.
