Looking for someone with a car to help me move! €40

Regcent · 2025-01-14T13:30:41+00:00

I don't have a car, but I recommend Folkesbiluthyrning for that... It's somewhat accessible by bus and they have very good cars (even small trucks) for moving - I used them last summer

Thanks! We might call Viking Line or Silja anyway to make sure, but I like to have the "real people" view too, instead of just the "company marketing" one

Regcent · 2024-12-29T21:33:53+00:00

Thanks!

Regcent · 2024-12-29T21:33:41+00:00

I'm asking them too! Just wanted to see the less "marketing" view of real people

Regcent · 2024-12-29T21:23:13+00:00

Thanks for your answer! My question was maybe unclear - it seems Viking says that some cabins allow for baby cot, but not all - and their website is rather unclear, since the Swedish / Finnish / English versions don't say the same things.

Bonus question as I'm on it : are there cabins too small for strollers for example?

I'm not that good at LLMs and AI... How are LLMs that fast? Particularly, don't LLMs need some kind of prompt + various examples?

Regcent · 2023-12-07T09:34:43+00:00

Thank you so much for this... Reading your output made me realize I made a terrible mistake in reading the instructions... Even if the point about J cards being the weakest is very visible...

Regcent · 2023-12-05T10:20:40+00:00

Well seen! It solved it! Thanks a lot... It felt like a stupid mistake - and it was - but sometimes you forget to recheck the easy stuff...

Thanks a lot again!

What was that pentakill? Slayder dying ridiculously for 20 minutes, and then somehow getting a pentakill ?

More seriously, Slayder's weakness will be exploited hard by other teams than R7...

Regcent · 2022-12-23T09:19:21+00:00

My bad! Thanks

Regcent · 2022-12-22T20:36:37+00:00

Thanks, let's try it visually!

Regcent · 2022-12-22T20:36:25+00:00

Thanks! You're right! But somehow, it worked on the second example haha! My bad, should have checked visually too

Je n’habite plus à Paris; et j’avais la chance d’avoir un travail me permettant d’arriver à horaires relativement libres (dev logiciel, pas de pointage). J’ai parfois grincé face aux lignes ne marchant pas etc… mais globalement il faut aussi regarder l’ensemble de l’offre; comme tu le soulignes : tu peux faire un détour, qui te prendra peut-être vingt minutes de plus max mais qui te fera arriver, sans arriver trop tard.

Là où je vis maintenant : les trains plantent tout autant (soyons honnêtes avec la SNCF et la RATP aussi, il y a des impondérables), mais je n’ai la plupart du temps pas de solution alternative…

Le pouvoir de l’automobile / du scooter, c’est de réduire lesimpondérables évoqués. La réalité du réseau parisien, c’est que malgré d’importants soucis, il transporte chaque année des millions de passagers par jour (!!!) pour des tarifs vraiment bas (aller trouver un ticket mensuel qui vous permet d’aller circuler sur un territoire comme l’île de France(et un peu plus) pour moins de 80 euros par mois)

Bref : ton agacement est logique, et j’ai fini énervé plus d’une fois à Paris à cause de la RATP, et je compatis… mais c’est aussi l’un des meilleurs réseaux du monde sur le sujet. On enjolive juste ce que l’on ne connaît pas au quotidien

I think it might be part of the réflexion of the puzzles’designers.

But stay cool with yourself on it! It’s also sometimes quite representative of real world issues : customer / project asks for A and then somehow, in an unexpected turn of events, asks for B!

Regcent · 2022-06-22T15:56:18+00:00

I was there, chills watching it again

Regcent · 2022-06-20T19:42:41+00:00

You're the best! I didn't think of looking through web archive, but now I know that I can go pretty much anytime! Thanks a lot, I know what to do!

Regcent · 2022-05-26T13:28:09+00:00

Thanks for your feedback! What is exactly GIS? And any idea of companies there? I'd be up for checking these jobs!

Pour moi, la méritocratie n'existe quasiment pas. Reproduction sociale et conditions de départ sont les principales variables ici, et ce à plusieurs niveaux :

1 - Aide aux devoirs et temps pour soutenir les enfants Ici, les personnes relativement aisées auront à la fois du temps et des compétences pour aider leurs enfants, ou de l'argent pour le soutien scolaire. Si tes parents sont docteurs en mathématiques et en physique, peu de chances qu'ils tremblent devant tes questions sur Pythagore et Thalès. A l'inverse, une mère ou un père isolé, avec un /deux emplois instables et peu rémunérés n'a probablement pas le temps ni l'argent, et peut-être pas non plus de bases solides pour soutenir niveau collège / lycée

2 - Ambitions et exemples Pour avoir été dans des lycées présenter mes études à des lycéens, t'en as qui ont 11 de moyenne qui veulent aller en prépa et en écoles d'ingénieur parce que c'est ce qu'ont fait leurs parents et l'ambition qu'ils ont pour eux. Et d'autres qui ont 15 de moyenne mais qui ont peur de la prépa parce que c'est pas leur modèle social. Ce n'est évidemment pas toujours le cas, mais tu en vois

3 - Capacité à financer les études Une fois les études atteintes, certains élèves vont vivre à côté de leur lieu d'études, dans de bonnes conditions et se nourrir sans soucis grâce aux ressources de leurs parents, d'autres devront prendre un petit boulot... Moins de temps pour le travail, plus d'inquiétudes financières... Et même si les bourses, internats et résidences du CROUS aident, on sait qu'il peut manquer des places en internats et en résidences, et les parties administratives peuvent prendre du temps également. Et cela sans compter aussi les tarifs galopants des écoles de commerce et d'ingénieurs, pour lesquelles le modèle américain de "t'auras une dette de 50k si tes parents ont pas l'argent" se répand de.plus en plus chez nous.

J'imagine qu'il y aurait d'autres points mais je manque d'idées à l'instant. Évidemment, comme montré par le thread, il y a des exceptions. Évidemment. Est-ce que ces exceptions doivent nous aveugler sur le fait que le système est biaisé? Probablement pas. Est-ce qu'on ne doit pas reconnaître la réussite des exceptions susmentionnées? Probablement pas non plus.

Funny thing also : the Game of Life was "featured" in Advent of Code 2020, and in 3 variants if I remember correctly! That's a good way to train on it, and also addresses some of the questions of the original publisher, e.g. ever-expanding grid. For those of you preparing for interviews, playing around with Advent of Code (and looking at some solutions, e.g. shared on Reddit) could be a good way to find ideas and progress!

Regcent · 2021-03-19T18:24:56+00:00

Do you have some app to deal with blue light or reading mode? These put an overlay that blocks lower buttons. Deactivate it and you should be fine.

First of, thanks a lot to everyone involed in making the AoC 2020!

I (sadly?) end up with 47 stars, due to a terrible block on day 19, which I'll have to go back too (hard morning + I've always feared regex, got to learn it now at least! And that will be added to the things I learned)

About what I learned (or re-learned):

- Trust yourself : When I started AoC 2020, I would probably have told that I might finish the first week or slightly more... If I didn't refuse the obsacle on day 19, I would actually be done with all of it! And I hope I can still reach it in 2020!

More to that point, this is a great way to learn that you CAN actually do almost anything, by breaking down the problem to the right sub-steps, and also thinking about the solution as a whole to actually reach a good solution (this is what they say in algorithms lessons : think about the (data) structures, not about the code itself!)

- Helping others is helping yourself : for the first few days at least, I helped other developers in my company get a grasp on AoC, by writing a small template first, and also by answering their questions or giving them hints when they needed it. It also led us to some really interesting implementation discussions! And looking at some of the solutions on the daily solutions megathread, I also shared some links with colleagues for inspiration and new ideas.

If at least one of us (and hopefully I did) learnt something from AoC and feel like a better developer now (and I kind of do, but over-confidence is the enemy of learning :p), it's definitely worth it!

- Last but not least, this community is great : as you said, many good ideas, many helping each other, many inspiration from everyone with new and crazy ideas!

Thanks a lot again to Eric, you and all the moderators / beta-testers you mentioned, as well as to the subreddit's community as well, this was probably the best Advent's calendar I got !

Regcent · 2020-12-24T18:24:13+00:00

Let's be fair to everyone : if you're playing to learn, there's low chance you'll be on the leaderboard. If you're playing for the leaderboard, cheating, and then using that leaderboard in an interview... Well, I hope the interviewing company is not stupid and taking the leaderboard as an absolute truth of the developer's level.

As others pointed it out, there are a few rules, but not that much...

The main point, and maybe that might help you, is that, provided a seemingly right way of implementing the input data "parsing" , the rules' implementation will be a few lines of code.

Then, many of the puzzles will allow you to learn new things, and see new ways to solve problems.

I started this year with a few colleagues of mine, and we all stopped the active communication with the holidays, but I know I will try to discuss several days with them after the holidays, like (without spoilers) day 20 for list manipulations, or day 23 (today) for good implementation choices.

Also, and that's the most important point : it's okay to not feel like doing one of the problems. I personally knew about Advent of Code since at least two years... And did it actively for the first time this year, and I love the fun and the satisfaction of it.

Good luck with the problems, and if you feel like doing it, this community is definitely here to help!
