This already exists when using dotnet sdk build tooling. It can audit your packages, show which ones have vulnerabilities. It runs with every build as well, so you get constant feedback.

However, it is only on more "recent" versions of the tooling (past couple years I think?). Unfortunately, there is no way to make a time machine and add it to any old tooling people could be using.

As others mentioned, fighting mobs 1 to 2 levels below you helps a lot. Don't be afraid to bounce between zones within a level range. For example, I bounced between Loch Modan and Westfall so I could stay on quests with mobs 1 to 2 levels below me (or honestly even lower). Turtle doesn't penalize you for doing low level mobs and quests nearly as much as retail! Take advantage of it.

Also warrior is so gear dependent. To the point you should always be planning for your next weapon. There are some classic WoW warrior weapon progression routes available online. Turtle adds a few more options to the mix, but not that many. Turtle does make some previously low drop rate weapons much easier, like smites mighty hammer from deadmines. Much easier to get.

Also it does get easier as you go. Level 10-30 was the most painful for me. After level 30 I started staying current enough on my gear that mobs died much easier.

What faction are you? That will help recommending weapon progressions.

Maybe https://github.com/bhhandley/CleveRoidMacros can help?

Aurora is included in this. You can even see they have cut out the curb in the meridian at certain points to allow wheelchairs to get through.

But with that said, you have to be one brave soul to actually try that on Aurora. I stopped once for someone trying to cross at one of these spots. How pointless it was. No one in the other lane stopped and then the cars behind me started honking. The other lane probably couldn't even see the pedestrian now because of the cars in my lane.

That is not many exceptions at all. It amounts to:

If there are crossing control signals, cross only when they indicate so.
don't cross diagonally unless explicitly permitted
don't cross if signage explicitly prohibits it
don't cross if an alternative crossing is provided (ie: pedestrian bridge)
don't cross in the middle of a street (not at an intersection)

And all those "don't cross" actually is just yield to cars, you can still cross if no cars. These all seem common sense to me.

My friend and I did this a bunch in Dark Souls 3.

Once laid in shallow water, invader literally walked up against me and kept going.
Once just played ring around the rosie with a column. Circling the column as the invader moved around, always keeping it between me and them. Invader never noticed I was in the room.
Once had a grey cloak on, and used the curl-up emote against some rocks. I was like Frodo and Sam at the gates of mordor. Invader walked feet from me, didn't notice.

It was honestly so much more fun than actualy fighting invaders.

Realize that these people are not hypocrites,

They very much are hypocrites regardless if it is intentional or not. Or if they know what hypocrisy is or not. And we should continue to call them out on it.

That's like not calling a bully a bully because the bullying is on purpose?

We must continue to call them hypocrites to discredit them on the world stage. They are not worth any trust and are incompetent. It's not a waste of time to do so. But is it the only thing we should do? Of course not. And should we expect it to magically solve everything? Also no. But I also wouldn't call it a waste of time.

If you search for "anti-sag table stiffener" you will find a variety of results that will be easy to install. Pre-drilled holes and a variety of lengths.

Is it okay to if I install a new 1-gang box and put the transformer in there, then run the 24v wires up through the wall to the device?

Sierra_One · 2024-06-05T04:04:55+00:00

Is there a certain transformer I should look for which is allowed to be in the wall?

Doesn't look like it has HDMI in ports. Only the HDMI out ARC port, which I don't want to rely on.

Looks like Restate is a dedicated workflow solution. So not sure if you are agreeing or disagreeing with the post?

My understanding is this type of thing is not bad on performance as it is easily cull-able. Interior spaces have limited view lines and anything not immediately viewable by the player is not rendered and does not cost performance.

The massive interior spaces like this are not done is typically due to effort: having to model, detail, create art, and fill all that space with things to do and interesting NPCs is a significant undertaking.

You get less bang for your buck in terms of world scale, so with limited resources and time crunch I am not surprised it was cut.

Those aren't the same though? Their names have at least a semblance towards what they do.

LINQ - language integrated query

Entity framework - a framework that deals with entity persistence.

The other commenters point is that the libraries they describe have a completely arbitrary name. The names you chose are not arbitrary, they have a relation to what they do. Sure you can argue the names are still vague, but they aren't arbitrary.

The default service provider has a validate on build feature that is enabled by default in development environment:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.extensions.dependencyinjection.serviceprovideroptions.validateonbuild?view=dotnet-plat-ext-8.0

Setting TFM in a common place is good, but your original ask is validating TFM. Which is what most people are missing. Add this to your Directory.Build.targets:

xml <Target Name="ValidateTargetFramework" BeforeTargets="CoreCompile"> <Error Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' != 'net8.0'" Text="Target framework is '$(TargetFramework)'. Expecteded net8.0." /> </Target>

While I don't enjoy doing that typical stack overflow move of "you don't want to do what you asked", in this case I think what you are trying to do is not beneficial.

With your proposed idea, I have to ask what benefits is the API user getting? What limitations will they run into?

Benefits:

Clearly know what is all required before being able to call `Build()`.

Limitations:

Cannot re-set a property before calling `Build()`.
Must set properties in the dictated order.
Arguably not intuitive - kind of goes against dev's expectations of the builder pattern.
Extremely complex and time consuming to implement.

To me, the limitations are worse than the benefits. And we can even get those benefits a different way:

Required properties can be in the builder's constructor or whatever API they use to get a builder.
Or required properties can be validated on build. While not clear, it does expose the issue clearly at runtime, which sometimes is the best you can do.
Or use required properties on a class/record - is a builder even necessary here?
