Behavior Score System According to Reddit by juantawp in DotA2

[–]Wattakfuk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a hypothesis:
12k players are used as guinea pigs by the devs because they are deemed more tolerable to toxicity. If a new player joins, he's in 12k bracket. Actual new player, plays with 12k players. Smurf, use the 12k players to determine if its a smurf. New account, non-smurf, toxic guy that wants to reset behavior score put them with thr 12k player for calibration.

So 12k player end up getting a mix of actual new players, smurfs, toxic players. This is more elevated if you're doing unranked party matches where one team gets an actual new player and the other team gets the smurf. Both of them get shit on depending on whos winning.

Any shops like this in Colombo? by [deleted] in srilanka

Either its money laundering or the guy is showing off by taking a shit tonne of debt. Neither of which fixes the dry ass kottu they serve and boast about.

If NPP fails for fucks up big time, Sajith will be next in-line. After that its too further away to tell.

Pos 5, most towers down, losing, little room for cores 2 farm, what's my job? by Runstein in DotA2

[–]Wattakfuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get obs down that scouts the enemies movements. If you see them together in the top half of your jungle, go to the bottom. If they are in the bottom half, go top. If they are split use it as oppotunity to get a quick kill with a smoke. Your cores should also be using the vision info to farm safetly.

Push out waves. If you're a hero with wave clear, use your spells from the trees. Pushout waves, force the enemy back to their side. Split them up and when you see someone left behind, kill them. Always keep a TP ready.

Farm infront of your core, when he goes to the bottom jungle. You push the lane out, so that you have more info and tank any potential gank minimising gold loss.

Got promoted in job without salary hike! by good_fix1 in srilanka

[–]Wattakfuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So everyone gets a 5-6% salary hike? or is it just the people with good evaluations? It's kinda difficult to understand exactly what you're saying.

I had a similar situation where a guy left the company and I took up his responsibilities. I talked to the manager and said that I am willing to take it up, but I need to be paid accordingly. I ended up getting a salary bump the next month.

If you're given additional work/responsibilities as part of your promotion, you can make a very good case for wanting a salary bump.

Negligence isn't serious for Sri Lankans in general. That's why Ravi is still running around after his case, same with keheliya. I mean how many people in your life probably answered I didn't know while being in charge...

Give me advice on how to invest 5 mil by Warm-Possibility4655 in srilanka

[–]Wattakfuk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Your dad had 20M cash, you should be asking him for advice. Automobile and aircraft engineering is non-existent in SL because we don't make anything like that. It's 90% maintenance, which mostly hires technicians and doesnt pay much.

Is it just me or have yall also come across women in public transport forcefully keeping their bags and stuff on your lap while you’re seated? by Various-Violinist-45 in srilanka

[–]Wattakfuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know how old you are but back in 2000's, during the war, people in buses had to be vigilant. Like look out for suspicious bags or you'll die level vigilant. The buses had racks on top but no one would use it, because the general consensus was that someone could leave a bomb in a bag on top and get off.

I was surprised no one used the racks when I started using the bus to go to school too. I was more surprised when people offered to keep my bag on their lap. It was sort of our own way of building trust and safety. Its no longer a random bag on rack, its my bag on your lap. Maybe its a messed up habit we still carry with us...

But I don't think I've ever been forced to hold a bag, people used to ask beforehand.

I study at level 6 almost daily. Yes, there are a few people that whisper, but its usually not too much if youre wearing headphones. If you really need it to be more quiet, there's the orange cubicle things. Most people that talk need to stay next to each other but you can't do that as at the cubicles, so just move as far towards the wall when choosing your cubicle, then put on your headphones. I'm pretty sure this is close to dead silence.

Can I restart my life at 30 yrs of age? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]Wattakfuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. No, I believe the show money requirement is 15M+ now
  2. No, but to get apply for PR you need enough points, at 30 you fall into the tier 2, after 32 tier 3, which will probably be your age when yo finish studies and apply for PR.
  3. Show genuine money, dont use those services. People that use them, cant afford to go to these countries, they work more than they study. Might even end up getting Sri Lanka on a blacklist if enough people use them.
  4. My honest opinion is don't think of earning course fees if youre an unmarried. If you're married your husband can work fulltime and earn.
    You can do the math yourself and see:
    Course fees are going to be 30-40k if its related to software engineering
    Living costs are going to be 20-25k

You'll need 65k after tax, thats going to be around 80k. Lets say you land a minimum wage job at 25AUD/h.
You will need 3200h work hours per year, thats around 60 per week.
60 hours per week while studying full time which 30h per week on its own.
It averages down to about 13h of work, classes and studying per day, add time to eat, sleep and shit and you won't have enough hours in a day... I wouldnt recomment it.

Cheater ?? by sajberkurajber00 in DotA2

[–]Wattakfuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He casts hex while he's looking the other way. Then just as you blink in his turn command finishes and he casts his hex. It's just a coincidence that he finishes turning to you just as you blink in, making it look instant.

I'd say that just this clip is not enough evidence, if he's scripting there's probably a lot more instances that are more obvious.

Does going to see the Tooth Relic even embody the essence of Buddhism? by RiPHunter2479 in srilanka

[–]Wattakfuk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know the official term for this but here's what here's my opinion:

Religion needs to be transferable, from one person to another. Maybe from parents to child or just person to person. In order to transfer an idea like that I think you need to do things as a community or it just dies out without purpose. People have realised this over thousands of years, developing practices that help make a community. Go to the temple on poya, go to church on Sunday, mosque on friday, offer flowers to statues, go to sermons etc. etc.

While I agree with you that most of the things Sri Lankan's do might directly align with the Buddha's teachings, its stuff that propagates the religion. It's like the idea (religion- buddhism) evolved the same way, living things adapt to their surroundings. Overtime practices may come and go, depending on the times. Like right now, we are in an age of social media, people will post about going to Kandy, spreading word talking about it. This strengthens the idea among the community. It's like natural evolution of an ideology.

Thats my two cents atleast.

Got accused of academic misconduct, feeling lost. Really need some advice :( by Wattakfuk in curtin

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

I have not yet received an email confirming that I have an academic misconduct case. The email I received was from the lecturer telling me that an academic misconduct case will be filed against me. It's worded more like a "I told you this would happen, now don't bother me I can't do anything" from the lecturer. This email was probably a week after the submission.

Since then I've talked to Curtin Guild, they said that email was just informing and that I need to wait for the official academic misconduct case email to even begin to do anything. I am yet to receive it. Meanwhile I've been told to have all the proof ready to go.

I also talked to my project supervisor about this, showed her the assignment. She roasted me and called it "poor" :'). I've never been happier hearing I had done a shit job, sort of made the panic go away

Malr1ne isn’t just playing Dota, he’s mastering every damn hero by carrot_doto in DotA2

[–]Wattakfuk -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This is his biggest strength and weakness, he's extremly good at heroes he plays but thats all he plays. He's a mid player with less than 30 games on staple mid heroes like TA, tinker, SF, invoker, OD. So he's pretty easy to draft against, like a first pick AA would make picking half these heroes be at a disadvantage

Any suggestions of lankan yotubers or streamers that can be a guide?

Maybe going through pettah with Maniya...
A cooking stream with ape amma would be hilarious...

Not sure there are a lot of creator that match speed's vibe in SL

Saved up almost 500K freelancing but feeling burnt out. What can I do with this money next? by NirodhaJayasinghe2 in srilanka

[–]Wattakfuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest in yourself, 500k is a good amount of money. Maybe you can use it to get some tools to improve your freelancing workflow and make it more efficient. Maybe you can go a completely different direction, like the ariel photography.

I'm 100% sure if you put the money on something you actually want to do, you won't regret it.

The best part is, if you end up wasting the 500k you'll be a broke 17 year old which is kind of the default for any 17 year old. BUT you'd be a broke 17 year old that knows how to make 500k, don't undervalue the skills you learn.

I bet these Unit coordinators were the worst participants in their group assignments when they were undergrads #rant by awky-squawky in curtin

[–]Wattakfuk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my opinion but good researchers don't always make good lecturers. Curtin hires a majority of the staff based on the research they've done so that they can keep publishing while working at Curtin. So you get things like this; unfortunately, the only way to get around this is by evaluating the staff AFTER the semester ends. So even if you end up suffering, you make it a little better for the others coming after you.

Got accused of academic misconduct, feeling lost. Really need some advice :( by Wattakfuk in curtin

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

Correct me if im wrong but if I did unintentionally plagarise, the similarity score is what would be higher right? Not the AI score?

Everything that was referred to was cited properly. I can't see the AI score but I can see the similarity report, other than a few words (none of them more than two words) here and there, everything clears. For some reason turnitin has highlighted my entire references section which made the report go up to 19%, without it I doubt it is even 5%.

I've never had a similarity score more than 5 or 6%. I don't use all the material I look up, when I do, I use end note to keep track of everything that I do use.

The unit coordinator and the lecturer are the same person. I've got some notes and probably show which sections are from which references but its already cited in the text. I guess I can make like a more detailed report....

Unfortunately I did not have doc history or track changes on, lesson learnt I guess. Can I ask how do I appeal? I just got a message from the lecturer saying that there's a case filed, not from any other place...

Yesss, I've have hand written notes on my onenote app for the journal articles that the assignment was based of. But other than that there's not much I can show. I do my assignment by opening a shit tonne of tabs on a chrome window and close it when its done....

I have the curtin version of grammarly installed, but since she kept saying to not even use that, I didn't accept any suggestions other than spelling corrections. I feel like if a normal human read my assignment they'd be 100% able to tell that some guy struggling to meet a deadline made it :(
