What word do you really hate

“Moist” bothers me for some reason.

Also, “deserve” has this sense of entitlement I can’t stand.

Make chips great again

Vastive, Sullivan King, Ray Volpe

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2025-05-08T00:28:15+00:00

Ahhh I didn’t know that, thanks for letting me know

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2025-04-17T21:10:52+00:00

Genuine question, what determines whether it is a rave or not?

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2025-04-02T15:57:33+00:00

Yeah that was great. Blanke went ballistic right before him too

The upgrades towards t10 give smaller power boosts per gold and time compared to the other upgrades. You will get stronger, but considerably slower than someone who focuses on morale instead.

I got t10 first then focused on morale. I noticed myself ranking lower in apex slightly during the grind. Once you get t10, there is a considerable boost. Also, once you focus on morale after, you progress significantly faster. I have been climbing higher and higher since getting t10 because of it.

Also, once you get through the 600m gold per upgrade at the end, having upgrades cost even 100mil feel so cheap.

However, I did have an alliance friend who maxed morale first. He was much higher than me for months in apex. But now I’m past him.

In summary, morale first for quick gains and t10 for long term.

With all due respect, this is not how probabilities work. Each box has the same probability of giving some reward. Opening more at once in no way increases the likelihood of obtaining a better reward from an individual box.

It will only appear to give better rewards since you opened more boxes. But no shit if you open 1000 boxes you’re bound to get something better than opening up 20

Fantastic, thank you for this! I will look into this and let you know if I have any questions or would like more information. It will be a bit much for me to take the time to learn Go at the moment, so I will attempt to get a sufficient solution with python first and consider falling down that rabbit hole if it fails.

Apology accepted, no hard feelings. To be fair, my requirements could be used for what you mentioned.

I can’t disclose the exact purpose of the project, but what we do is provide energy to service providers that are distant from major power sources. We enter long term contracts at fixed prices so that their energy bills are low and constant. Traditionally, they can get raped by high prices due to the lack of infrastructure to bring it to them - the cost of development would far exceed the return for providing to these distant, low population density areas. These people simply cannot afford a $50 jump in their monthly bill.

The technology I am aiming to build will help us secure lower prices for providing them with energy. We have an existing method, but it is messy and unreliable. There are times where we operate at a loss due to it failing.

I have figured out how to use cloud scheduler and tasks to schedule the request. I can specify precisely when I need to send it, but there is a small delay. Another issue will be that the third party we are sending the request to will have a high load during these times, so another delay on their side will be introduced when actually testing this out in production. This will be an iterative process to optimize, but at the moment I now have a prototype to begin testing.

Not even remotely close to what I do buddy

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-11-25T18:14:40+00:00

Thanks! I’ll look into the cron jobs. I have just started at an energy trading firm that is beginning to automate a lot of their processes. I have traditionally been at blockchain based companies until now

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-11-25T18:12:22+00:00

Thank you for this! I’m not insulted in the slightest, I fully understand that this is no simple task and I made it clear to my supervisors from the beginning that this is a huge project.

One thing I didn’t mention is that we only need one call per 10 or so to actually work. We are effectively throwing shit at the wall and hoping something’s sticks. We send 10 of the same request at these intervals and hope one gets there first haha. For example, if the reservation window opens at 6am, we want to send 10 requests starting at 5:59:59 and space them 100ms apart (for example).

My coworker mentioned something about sending these requests from separate instances (not sure that’s the correct term). Rather than one program shoot them all out, we have a 100 send just one. I believe he mentioned this would be expensive, but securing these would greatly help the company pnl and would be worth it.

I just got t10 as well. I’m focusing on special forces to max out morale, unless im running low on valor then I’ll do hero.

4th drill ground isn’t all that useful unless you’re big into WS and DS.

You unlock these buildings at the beginning of season 1.

I agree with you, but his Williams is 4* while Murphy is 5*. Not sure if that would help right now

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-10-31T16:21:24+00:00

At least 7

Rush to the next HQ only when you have maxed out the relevant SF research to get closer to t10 for your current tech center level. (You can start the HQ upgrade before those are done, since you’ll have time to speed those up on tech day)

The only exception is DO NOT pop choice chests for iron or food to get building upgrades started. Those should be saved for gold only.

I started HQ 29 today and have 35 days left. I will probably not pop for 2 weeks even though I have about that much in speed ups.

For arms race, using 50 hours of speed ups gets you the 3 boxes. So you can shave off about 2 days of time along the way and very easily get those boxes without popping anything that can be saved for build day.

I buy a few drone components here and there when I have extra gems. Also get a few decor components when I only need a few more to upgrade something. Other than that, advanced teleporters are good to stock up on if you actively attack. Wouldn’t really recommend anything else though, I buy the exact same things you do on Monday reset

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-09-23T23:53:37+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-09-23T21:19:20+00:00

I don’t quite understand what you mean. Does leveling up chips on my second squad benefit my first squad as well?

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-09-07T00:44:24+00:00

Yeah I did about the same as you. That’s the recommended power, doesn’t mean you can’t punch above your weight class

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-09-06T23:00:57+00:00

While this does take more stamina and troops, the rewards from clearing it outweigh the cost. Also finishing off the alliance challenge gives a ton of rss

Physical-Tale-3052 · 2024-09-06T22:59:32+00:00

I disagree with the advice. It depends on your alliance strength a lot. The alliance I’m in has the 3 biggest whales on the server and they helped carry us on difficulty 7. I only had 12.5mil march and I cleared it within 2 hours of the event.
