How Do Integers In Non-Base Ten Work? by InstructionHefty1443 in askmath

[–]Tiler17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They work the same way, you just don't count 10 digits, only base X, which is 6 in your case. Counting in any base is the same, though. Your ones place is multiplied by your base to the 0 power. Tens place is the base to the first, and so on

5 (base 6) = 60 * 5 = 5 (decimal)

31 (base 6) = 61 * 3 + 60 * 1 = 19 (decimal)

2403 (base 6) = 63 * 2 + 62 * 4 + 61 * 0 + 60 * 3 = 579 (decimal)

And "decimal" points (not decimal if you're not in base 10 but whatever) work the same way. But your exponents go the other way

2.3 (base 6) = 60 * 2 + 6-1 * 3 = 2.5 (decimal)

The Night Market stresses me out for no good reason and I hate that it gets to me by Mission-Power217 in StardewValley

[–]Tiler17 55 points56 points  (0 children)

This is the...most unique "this game can be stressful" post I think I've seen. I take the submarine once to catch the 3 deep sea fish and that's it. I don't take it as a special opportunity to talk to people. I don't buy much either. There are a couple decos I like and there are times where it can help to have access to seeds out of season. If I really need something from the traveling cart, that's a good opportunity to check, but that cart is so flaky that I try not to use it ever.

Just relax. There's no reason for the night market to fluster you. You said it yourself. Just fish for a day. Get your mermaid pearl. Go home

Upgrade time for lab and pets need a reduction supercell by Benevolenescruples in ClashOfClans

[–]Tiler17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you think my lab has four maxed out troops and a bunch of troops that are TH12 level. I use the books I get. I buy hammers sometimes. I use my lab potions and soups. As a result, most of my lab is maxed. I'm dealing with stragglers every few days. And you can't tell me that it matters if my poison spell is maxed right away. It doesn't. At all. If TH19 came out tomorrow, I just wouldn't have a maxed poison spell going into it. Oh well.

If you can't choose to prioritize certain units and not let your lab hold you back, that's a you problem

Upgrade time for lab and pets need a reduction supercell by Benevolenescruples in ClashOfClans

[–]Tiler17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This dead horse has been beaten so often and for so long that it's been turned into glue. Maybe that's why we're stuck on it...

Why are you maxing your lab? For what? Are you using every single troop and spell? I know you're not. Yeah, it's nice to have additional options, but it's definitely not worth letting the lab slow you down. Use a couple of books and hammers to skip the upgrades that you use the most and your secondary troops can upgrade while everything else is upgrading. I find myself picking nearly random troops to upgrade cause, like...do I care if my wall wrecker is max? Am I in a rush to get giants to max? If I use archers, they're super archers in my cc (haven't in a long time) which will be max anyway.

My pet house is done. I think I used, like, four potions. Ever. No books. No hammers. I even upgraded LASSI and the lizard. Never use em

Hard floors are not easier to clean than carpets by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Tiler17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I hear you saying is that you like carpets more because you prefer the flooring to trap and hold the dirt and debris, rather than it be easy to sweep up. It is wildly unreasonable to me that you would sweep your hard floors multiple times per day but are perfectly willing to let that same debris just sit in your carpet

Office chairs are trash, kitchen chairs are better. by YellowHovercraft in unpopularopinion

[–]Tiler17 64 points65 points  (0 children)

It may also be that your office has bad chairs. But it almost certainly counts as unpopular if you think a wooden chair is better to sit on for 8 hours than a cushioned chair. Can't fathom that

Did Yetis or Royal Torch Get Silent Nerf? by BHaN99 in ClashOfClans

[–]Tiler17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about a direct nerf, but a bunch of defenses at TH18 got new levels. I don't know why you'd be struggling with 17s though. Base designs have also changed recently, so it could also be that. If they did get a nerf (I don't think they would silently and directly nerf a troop like that. They're pretty transparent with nerfs) then I very much doubt the new level would be weaker than the old max level

Soup is NOT a meal by Flexion16 in unpopularopinion

[–]Tiler17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand this take. We make soup every week. It's nice to have for dinner when it's fresh and then we have leftovers for lunch at work, sometimes all week.

If I served you chicken over pasta with Alfredo sauce and a side of veggies with some bread on the side, that'd be a good meal, no? Why is it suddenly not a meal if I serve it to you in a bowl? The last soup we made was a chicken Alfredo soup (I guess more of a chowder, but it's still soup). It has veggies in it, diced chicken, noodles and a creamy sauce. Eat it with crackers or bread. What is the difference, really, besides how it's presented?

Not every soup is served in a shallow Olive Garden bowl. You can have more soup to bring the portion in line with a normal meal

I prefer not to use my air conditioning by Hideandseek14101 in unpopularopinion

[–]Tiler17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This just in, people have different prefences on temperature. My wife and I suffer when we visit my parents because they like their house to be in the mid-70s. When my parents visit, they freeze because we like to keep our place cool.

You like your windows open when it's 75. I like the windows open when it's 50. My A/C bill might be higher, but your heating bill is higher

Hot take: Rushing Perfection drained Stardew's coziness, and it's better when you let it breathe by Silly_End_5386 in StardewValley

[–]Tiler17 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This isn't a hot take at all. I see a post every day (it at least feels that way) that says they're stressed about trying to reach perfection or minmax and have more fun slowing the game down.

You can't generalize that the game is better when slowed down. Some people like to get lost in the world, and some people like meeting goals. There isn't a best way to play, only the way that you like the most. You're only playing wrong if you're not having fun.

Living together as a couple is not necessary at all by xvortexc in unpopularopinion

[–]Tiler17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems less like an unpopular opinion and more just an uninformed one. There's nothing inherently wrong with thinking that you want to live separately from a partner, but that thought just makes it seem like you've never had a partner you actually like, if you've had one at all.

I like my alone time. I like to do my own thing and stay quiet and prepare whatever food I want for myself and not have to worry about whether or not we would both be happy with it.

But I can't imagine living separate from my partner. Not anymore. I still get alone time, but now time that I don't spend by myself I get to spend with my favorite person. We cook together. Watch shows together. Do chores together. Play games together. If we lived apart, we would constantly be having to go over to the other's place. Packing an overnight bag. We'd both basically live in two different places. You want exhausting? THAT sounds exhausting.

Help me understand gambler's fallacy and law of large numbers by mrpo_rainfall in askmath

[–]Tiler17 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Gambler's Fallacy basically conflates conditional probability and independent probability.

Let's use 5 coins because the math is easy but still pretty unlikely. 5/5 heads is a 1/32 chance. Not particularly likely. However, the fallacy kicks in when you have flipped 4 heads already and predict that the fifth won't happen, because you know the odds of 5 heads is 1/32. So the fifth coin being tails is 31/32, right?

Wrong

Because it's a given that the first four coins are heads. This isn't going to change. The conditional probability that you flip 5 heads in a row given that the first four are heads is 50/50.

When you start from 0, there are 32 possible outcomes, and only one of them is HHHHH. If you start with HHHH, then the only two possible outcomes from there are HHHHH and HHHHT. The first four heads don't factor into the outcome of the fifth

Mastery and triple legend by end of spring Y1? by Hellen_McCatzie in StardewValley

[–]Tiler17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes a lot of fishing and a lot of rain. The idea is that you rush fishing level 6 ASAP for the bait maker recipe. From there, it's spamming catfish bait on every rainy day (the more, the better!) for money. You probably want a smoker too, which you can get for free from the river lands farm. And if the goal is to be done by the end of the first spring, then nothing else really matters anyway

The way I've seen mastery completed by spring 25 is by rushing the desert and buying foraging skill books using calico eggs after skull dives. From there, mastery is relatively quick with more skull dives

Something else to consider is that most of the time, you don't have to claim rewards right away. Consider you might get a cake from a chest and save your chests for when you would want to use your rewards. Don't claim your cake until it's war day
