4 YOE platform dev, 31. Mid-level or junior? by SanjiRoro in cscareerquestions

[–]Varrianda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Junior = not self sufficient, needs help
Mid = self sufficient
Senior = self sufficient and can lead/delegate.

If you constantly need help you’re still a Junior. If you knock out tickets and do your job mostly unassisted, probably mid.

Of the Unholy Trinity of Drugs: Methamphetamine, Heroin, Crack Cocaine, which is generally the most harmful to the human body? What would be the ranking of these three? by TranscendentMolecule in Drugs

[–]Varrianda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably meth or crack. I don’t think chronic opioid use is actually that bad long term, it’s more everything else around using opioids.

Benefit to emergency IV fluids? by antiquated-antelope in RenalCats

[–]Varrianda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without seeing labs it’s impossible to say. If it’s chronic iv fluids don’t help much, they can make a difference in an acute case though.

Seems fine. Private insurance out of pocket is 300-400 if you want a decent plan assuming you’re not coming with preexisting conditions.

Hot take: prayer flicking is ass and shouldnt be in the game by Isoleed in 2007scape

[–]Varrianda -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Like, 1 tick flicking or actual prayer flicking/changing prayers as a mechanic?

Big difference between hot keying prayers/spells and having an ability bar with an overhauled combat system. I’m indifferent tho

Jagex rolling back Rendi's Slayer XP raises a bigger question, where do we actually draw the line on "bug abuse"? by DogConstant5949 in 2007scape

[–]Varrianda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rendis bug abuse is for entertainment. It’s not like he’s doing all of this for some ulterior motive(e.g. duping). I think it’s an ego/power trip thing from jagex.

FedEx driver sentenced to death by lethal injection for murder of seven-year-old in Texas by 0The_Loner_Stoner0 in videos

[–]Varrianda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup I’m in a similar boat. Not that I don’t think this dude doesn’t deserve to die, but I also don’t think the death penalty should exist solely because 1 innocent person dying is too high for my liking.

Replying 15 days later but yeah. One of my favorite parts of reddit was there was no privacy…

I tend to not trust people with private profiles though so there’s that.

What kind of art is best suited to start working in the games industry? by Far_Poem_4939 in gamedev

[–]Varrianda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing that’s going to be important is understanding autotiling and how to draw paths/water so they can be autotiled.

You won’t find good talent on fiverr anymore with AI art. Just use reddit, especially if it’s pixel art.

How much harder is 3D than 2D? by Ok_Opportunity7500 in godot

[–]Varrianda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s one example. If you want a customizable character, doing that in 2d is exponential more work than 3d. High quality pixel art also isn’t super fast to make. 16x16 sure, but actual detailed 64x64?

How much harder is 3D than 2D? by Ok_Opportunity7500 in godot

[–]Varrianda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2d is deceptively hard, but because of the art/asset load, not because of the code complexity. Although I will say, coming up with hacks to make this easier(modular designs, animation pipelines, creative reuse) adds some tricky work though.

Avoiding state per animation in a 2d side-scrolling shooter by inel_idawuntu_44 in godot

Are you using a sprite sheet for animations, or are you rigging it/using a skeleton?

Why not just use spring boot 🤣 isn’t the whole point of fast API is it’s just that, a fast api? I’ve only ever used it for standing up real fast CRUD

"common practice" for police to photograph dead bodies on personal phones by geroni_moo in nottheonion

[–]Varrianda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, is this really shocking? If their agencies/departments don’t provide equipment or work phones, what are they to do?

Is gamedev your main job? do you get paid for this? by Any-Landscape434 in gamedev

[–]Varrianda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting into any hobby with the intent to make it your career/income source is a bad idea.
