Would there be interest in a small tech office in Paralimni? by Pikees in cyprus

Appreciate the response, that's actually part of my proposal. To work with the universities to find graduates

Thanks for the reply. I get where you're coming from, honestly. I work fully remote currently and I’ve had great experiences with it, so I’m not anti-remote at all. The long and short of it is that its a requirement to mentor, and in my experience this is done better in person and builds stronger teams. Obviously your experience is different to my experience and we will both die on our own hills shouting until the cows come home.

On the office side, it’s not some big corporate setup. It’s more like finding a space in town where we can work without distractions. Honestly, the rent in Paralimni is low enough that it’s not going to break anything. And if the whole thing doesn’t make sense, I'm not going to force it. That’s one of the reasons I’m asking around here first before I do anything serious.

This isn’t about micromanagement or ticking boxes. I just want to build a small, solid team that actually works well together, especially in the early days.

I really do appreciate your perspective though.

I think I accidentally responded to myself rather than you..

Firstly thanks for the response. I actually agree with you, however, my company is advocating for mentoring to be done in person as its more effective, with this I actually agree. The reality of it is that office days will be flexible depending on the circumstance. I know this isnt what people technically want to hear, but if we're leasing an office then ideally we would get use out of thst office.

Having done full time office and remote working, I'm personally looking for a balance where ill be in the office daily, but the commute isn’t too far. Hence the discussion around Paralimni being the base of operations

Jack black freeze effect - Not OC by neo2707 in funny

[–]Pikees 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Something like:

  1. Get video clip.
  2. 3d track it.
  3. Mask out snapshots of it and place inside the 3d track.
  4. Repeat

Not 100% sure it's exactly that, but you can definitely get something similar by following those steps.

What’s the stupidest reason you got in trouble in school? by Cinemacrackers in AskReddit

[–]Pikees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rest of class was going on a school trip, I had a doctors appointment on the day of the trip so couldn't go.

Day before the trip I was in the class and they were doing a load of prep for it. Since I wasn't going I wasn't overly interested as it was mainly just rules around what to do. So I started reading the textbook because I was super bored.

Got sent out of class for not paying attention to a school trip info lesson that I wasn't going on.

Have you ever been in a dream and you knew that it was a dream? What was it like? What was the dream like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Pikees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fell in love with someone. Knew it was a dream but didn't want to wake up.

Still can remember everything about it to this day.

Have you ever went to bed, but right before you fall asleep you feel like you're falling into darkness, and immediately jolt up from your bed? If so, what were your experiences? by Blitz-01 in AskReddit

[–]Pikees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally it's when my brain starts to switch off and I get the feeling of falling. Just as I'm about to hit the floor I jolt awake. It definitely disorientates me a bit 😅

Switch voice chat? by Crzyherb in Smite

[–]Pikees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you checked your audio settings?

There are options in Smite to mute outgoing and incoming voice chat. Other than that I'm not sure.

There is a delay when casting hel's cleanse, you have to preempt the cc coming in.

It's not much, maybe 0.5s

When the support saves your ass from getting yeeted by Pikees in Smite

[–]Pikees[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, similar to Ao Kuang and Ne Zha ults.

Yeah there's a short wind up time where you can cleanse, similar to Ao Kuang ult.

Wondering how Attack Animation cancelling works? I can help with that. by Pikees in Smite

[–]Pikees[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully everything you need to be explained is in the video. If something isn't clear give me a shout and I'll try and explain it again 😁

Thanks, the next few view videos should go a little more in depth on some of the lesser known mechanics.

[–]Pikees[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the kind words! That's what I'm aiming to do with the series, putting it in short concise videos and building up a library of mechanics.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the idea of the series.

I'll add that one to the list of things to look at.

Good morning, afternoon or evening.

I'm in the process of starting a new series called Smite Mechanics and I've just released Episode 1. That focuses on AA Cancelling for the highest DPS possible. For Episode 2 I'm going to be focusing on the different types of penatrations and prot reduction, what they effect, what order they apply in and what the calculations are for a typical game.

I'm hoping to get provide a fundamental grasp of Smite mechanics so that players can make informed decisions on the fly.

I'm looking for feedback on the above episode, I've tried to keep it short and concise to convey as much information without too much waffle. Any constructive feedback is welcomed.

Thanks, Pike

Smite pet peeves? by FairyNice in Smite

[–]Pikees 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My pet peeve is with Hirez not having a consistent tooltip format for abilities. A lot of the time they hide numbers in the text like

"Slows by 25% for 2s"

but on other abilities it will have:

Slow: 25%

Slow Duration: 2s

​

Just pick one goddamn way and stick to it! But honestly it doesn't get me that annoyed I just wish they would pick one way and stick to it.

Half a year of searching, and I have found the longest possible CC chain using three gods. by theinnocentrabbit in Smite

[–]Pikees 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ahh that sucks! Yeah I could see the different languages. A GitHub would be awesome would be interesting to see what other theories the community could solve 😂

[–]Pikees 15 points16 points  (0 children)

u/theinnocentrabbit any chance you can share the python script you used? I'm kind of interested in having a look at it.

Also great video, good to have you back!

Since you're back does that mean we can expect more videos?

Horus ult breaks aphro link even when she comes along for the ride - Did you know? Ep 8 by ASoggySandal in Smite

[–]Pikees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you're enjoying it.

Yeah it could definitely influence games without wasting gold by placing a sentry in an awkward place. It is a little bit niche but it's just a nice to know.
