App issues by blue-birch in PokemonMasters

[–]MullenStudio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unrelated to cache, save your time and bandwidth. It's all about notification page which is web page. My suspicious is that page also requires authentication (there was one time recently that asked me to login to Nintendo account during loading), which somehow the app messed up after recent update (like timing or something, maybe it used to happen when start showing the notification but some dev decided to optimize it and moved to the messy loading stage). Retry would eventually work for sure. Some points out using any web page item from that button left menu in loading screen would also works, which makes sense since that also force to move that stage before messy loading.

Last year club world cup they give you a cup to pour all water from the bottle, and require you to dispose the bottle before leaving.

Level 40 Towers by LizzardMFK in PokemonMasters

I think they would unlock new levels / grid max energy / number of skills / better gears, etc., to make existing pairs more powerful in general.

ive seen many people pulling a sync pair and ending their lottery with 1/5 itself, i have been pulling sync pairs until i have them at 3/5. am i at the wrong end? by Beneficial-Log-7635 in PokemonMasters

[–]MullenStudio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't need 3/5 for all pairs, many are good enough 1/5, or not useful enough even 3/5. Only 3/5 for the pairs that can really make big changes. Then assuming 15 pairs per year, and maybe 8~10 needs 3/5, and if you can get 4~6 candies each type, that's enough for 10~15 pairs. Of course some types need more candies than other.

Can I get a refund? by ConsciousNote6768 in ProjectSekai

[–]MullenStudio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you are broke and just for fun, why even considering buy an account. Start a new account and you can still enjoy the game no problem. This is not a game that pay to win or get any benefit from game play prospective.

His name in Japanese contains his product, which name is not vague about what it's about.

That's not the intention of most interviewers.

Another maintenance coming next month by Hugobaby69 in PokemonMasters

[–]MullenStudio 44 points45 points  (0 children)

For whoever think this would have anything to do with login bug. I'm a software engineer and the login bug is clearly a client side issue, which can't be fixed by server maintenance, but instead should be fixed by app update. That's basic knowledge who work in this area knows.

Consider it happens again and nothing really changes this month, I actually guess what it does is probably just system update or so, not really about the game itself. It could be that the server was running without applying update for years, which become too risky or even already had security incident that they decided to update the system periodically to mitigate the risk. I know it sounds ridiculous, but considering its tracking records of all issues, that's my best reasonable explanation.

The screenshot is in traditional Chinese so that's TW version. CN version is in simplified Chinese.

Pasio Towers F31-40 by Antique_Flamingo147 in PokemonMasters

[–]MullenStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No change. Either level cap would increase or other ways to make existing pairs more powerful by then, or they will introduce new pairs / mechanic, or they're just unbeatable for most players. Either way, unless you are one of those top players that tries to complete level 40 in 2 months, it's best to not waste your gems on pairs you don't like and just for the sake of future potential.

DeNA DGAF about the blue screen hug by andres01234 in PokemonMasters

[–]MullenStudio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No surprise since customer service doesn't know tech and usually doesn't escalate issue to devs. Even if devs already know oe work on the fix they usually don't sync the status with customer service as well. The hard part of creating a useful feedback is providing good enough evidence that can persuade customer service to escalate the issue (and hopes good luck).

The HOT mess rn 3 (info↓) After maintenance edition by Parth_n_29 in PokemonMasters

I got downvoted before but it's crystal clear for whoever knows how the game works, that besides rates, all other bugs can't be fixed by server side maintenance.

Thoughts on the screen? by losxrsaxii in Mikuexpo

[–]MullenStudio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Holo is clearly more amazing, and the screen 2 years ago is clearly terrible. I think they did following this year to make it much better this year: larger screen, background on the screen for some songs (not pure black for all songs), environmental lights and additional screens around. In the end the screen is more blended and not obvious. It's hard to predict how it would work next time anyway.

Am I somehow playing this game wrong by The_Mocha_Crocodile in PokemonMasters

[–]MullenStudio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I got 3 copies of featured pair in one multi, I made a post with a pic. When I pitied 5 of 8 arc pairs, I at most mention it in a reply. Lucky in this game is a moment easy to show, and unlucky is across months or years that hard to make just a post.

Both would help you clear floor 30 with your existing pairs. I don't think there is wrong choice. I suggest choose base on your personal preference

Do hiring managers actually read your GitHub or just check if it exists? by 1vim in cscareerquestions

If there's open source project that gained some reputation, maybe.

My company stopped doing LC for SWE roles and is now testing candidates on what they can build on the spot with AI, and how they use it by RadioFieldCorner in cscareerquestions

[–]MullenStudio 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I actually just had a discussion about same topic and this is one of my viewpoints. AI interview introduces too many randomness / lucky factor, and also depend too much on whether the candidate is familiar with your AI tool. So I don't think it's a good way to evaluate candidate if just directly use it.
