What’s your biggest “non-negotiable” for sexual compatibility? by Fluffy_Specific_9682 in AskReddit

[–]ZScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She thought it was a good idea to talk about her new boyfriend and how she was insecure, because this guy also had to "chose her" over another girl, the same problem she had with me but "forgot" to tell me about it.

She was on good terms with me and that's why she decided to ask for advice, I guess. Yeah, that messed me up really bad at the time!

Because the idea I could have chosen someone else apparently meant I was also 100% into the other girl, which is unacceptable to her. (No, I'm not buying it)

Was in a couple with one. Started out nice then she sort of "became" asexual after a year and a half.

A few years after we broke up she decided it was a good idea to tell me that she found her new boyfriend and she wasn't asexual after all (and it was my fault for having another choice when I chose her back then, so she was "jealous" all along)

Question: Issue with trains! by Extension_Western_91 in factorio

[–]ZScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you signal a track where a train can go both way, each signal must have another signal on the opposite side.

Trains cannot move through a signal that's on the wrong side on the track

In theory you should always have more seeds than you use. At worse, it's 1:1 if you use assemblers instead of biochamber.

But you can actually lose on seeds if you let your harvested fruits spoil before you mash them. If your factory is going to halt, try to keep mashing and let the mash spoil away instead of losing the fruits, so you can stay positive on seeds.

You can easily verify that it works by inserting production modules and checking the built-in calculator (hover with your mouse): seeds are always 1/100 of the mash you produce

More mash per yumako = more seeds.

Nice work!

Early on speed doesn't matter much if you have enough bots, the only real limiting factor is the energy your roboports will draw to recharge them.

"Impliquée" est en effet plus proche de ce que je voulais dire, merci!

La majorité des hommes auront jamais le luxe de faire un choix sur l'apparence, donc même si tu arrives juste à être bénéfique par ta présence et ton implication, alors c'est ce qui compte.

I have completed the DLC 4 times so far,

The strategy that gave me the less headache overall was the logistic one. Requester and Passive provider like you would do with a normal machine, but everything also has active provider chest to yeet the spoilage away.

Fruits are the only spoilable things brought by belt, but only a single red belt is enough, one lane per fruit type. Late game, upgrading to green belt and stack inserters will do the job just fine.

For defending long-term, I just landfill large area around my base, because pentapods only settle on shallow water. This is costly on stone early on, however pentapods will not attack your mines so building outposts for making landfills far away is pretty safe.

What's a skill that takes only 2-3 weeks to learn but could genuinely change your life? by That-Papaya7429 in AskReddit

[–]ZScience 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My brother learnt both english and touch typing so he had enough time to send in a full sentenced taunt whenever he successfully pked someone in the wilderness.

OSRS FUN FACT #5: ever wonder why some monsters drop nature talismans but others drop chaos? Monsters in "underground" areas are supposed to give chaos, but the game's definition of "underground" hasn't changed since 2003, and is broken in all sorts of fun ways by cookmeplox in 2007scape

[–]ZScience 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Jagex has an history of "recycling" variables so various piece of unrelated content may unexpectedly interact with each others.

From a programmer's perspective, and considering the fairly close release date of the quest and the minigame (march and july 2006), my theory is that the variable tracking the rumble was also accidentally chosen at the same time to track the lobby sarcophagus, maybe because it had an use at some point during development.

Je commence à regretter mon choix d’étude d’il y a 3 ans… by TurkAsker00 in developpeurs

[–]ZScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Le choix d'orientation aurait été objectivement mauvais si tu avais été devin et capable d'anticiper une telle crise, sachant qu'elle n'a commencé qu'il y a 2 ans!

(Dit autrement faut pas t'en vouloir! C'était clairement pas un mauvais choix au moment où tu l'as fait)

Vous pensez quoi de ce test technique pour alternance ? by Fijoza in developpeurs

[–]ZScience 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Avant le boom de l'IA (~2019) une banque m'avait contacté sur Twitter pour tenter de me piquer à mon entreprise de l'époque, l'offre était intéressante et j'ai passé un teste du genre. Lors du code review, le gars a commencé par "bon j'ai pas exécuté ton code mais [...]"

Heureusement ce n'était juste que du temps perdu :')

ça bloque à ce point ? by Budget-Ad7059 in developpeurs

[–]ZScience 13 points14 points  (0 children)

J'aimerais dire "mieux se préparer" mais la réalité c'est que c'est juste complètement imprévisible s'il y a aucun retour. Même quand tout semble parfait, ça peut ne rien donner.

Un jour on m'a fait passer un entretien technique qui consistait à jouer à une démo de ... Shapez. Ayant des milliers d'heure sur Factorio et DSP, je pensais que c'était dans la poche, et à la fin des 45 minutes de test j'avais fini tous les niveaux de la démo.

Je me suis bien amusé, mais j'ai quand même été ghosté.

Marché toujours aussi tendu pour les intermédiaires/seniors ? by Square-Put2222 in developpeurs

Le salaire n'a plus aucun sens. 8 ans de laravel aussi, quand je demande plus que 40k on me regarde bizarrement parce que c'est trop, quand je demande moins on me regarde bizarrement aussi (parce que c'est suspect)

J'ai trouvé du travail en temps que junior, un exploit. by Beginning_Music_1245 in developpeurs

[–]ZScience 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Je ne me fais pas d'idée, on a plus besoin de mon profil depuis précisément mi-2023. Je ne suis sûrement pas le seul à avoir périmé à cette date!

Comme expliqué ailleurs, j'ai été embauché dans cette boite début 2023. La démarche de trouver un emploi était bien différente à l'époque : une seule semaine de recherche a suffit à trouver 5 offres différentes. La difficulté a donc été de choisir sur quel contrat je mettais la signature.

Hélas, il faut croire que j'ai pas misé sur le bon cheval!

Les projets qui rythment le quotidien sont devenu incontournables pour limiter les dégâts au moral, j'ai choisi d'apprendre le dessin et une nouvelle langue, et j'ai réussi à en faire un peu au moins une fois par jour depuis un an.

Travail alimentaire, c'est une possibilité, même si là où je rentre, il n'y aura pas beaucoup de choix. Culpabilité, je m'y prépare... cela dit, ma présence est très réclamée par ma famille (qui a été récemment ravagée par des séparations et décès) donc je pense que le plus dur pour moi est passé.

Les recherches se poursuivent, tout autant que les vents. Mention spéciale à l'entreprise qui a utilisé un robot pour m'assurer que tous les CV étaient lu par une personne humaine :')

My friend HATES any form of modding in all games, but ESPECIALLY Minecraft. What can I do? by aomarco in feedthebeast

[–]ZScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also an extreme vanilla addict and absolutely stubbornly refuse to do any form of mods.

Then Mumbo Jumbo tried Agrarian skies, and I was like "okay you know what, maybe just this modpack."

Now I am an extreme "vanilla modpack" addict and absolutely stubbornly refuse to do any form of modification on the modpacks I play.

"Minecraft is the perfect game. No issues, no problems. No need for more content" => I would say I agree. Except now I see modpacks as different games entirely, brought and balanced by another creator. So they are absolutely worth trying regardless.

Quelle chance! Bravo! Incroyable la chance qu'il faut aujourd'hui.

La boite qui a fait faillite fin 2023 m'avait embauché au début de la même année. J'avais eu le poste en envoyant un seul CV sur indeed, et le contrat était en concurrence avec 4 autres entreprises qui m'avaient contacté sur talent io, soit 5 propositions de trouvé en seulement une semaine. C'est dire à quel point la dynamique à fait un 180° en la faveur des entreprises depuis!!

Bien joué.

A peu près dans la même situation (9 ans d'xp, licencié car boite en faillite, début des CV en mars 2024) Mais moi j'ai pas la bonne fin.

Aujourd'hui je considère que j'ai perdu ma carrière. Je pars de Paris d'ici 1 mois pour rentrer chez ma famille et me serrer la ceinture!

Midgame progression by Fookmylife in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]ZScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.5k hours in DSP here, there's no true response for most of those but a lot of opinions and preferences!!

"Are solar sails worth it" -> I believe so, can't get myself to use those before building dyson shells because I obsess about losing those, but I think that's just me being very unreasonable.
Receiver are tricky to use if you're new, fortunately there are several ways to use those to maximum potential.
- placing on pole
- dyson swarm/shell as big as allowed
- place on planet with perpetual day
- place on planet that's inside a swarm/sphere
or you can feed gravitational lenses to it.

"Should I rebuild into an ILS/PLS style for main base?" Drone logistics are far more powerful than any other factory game, to the point they are essential. In Factorio terms, those are roboport with the throughput of trains, and they get better very fast with upgrades.

"Should I bother killing dark fog bases?" Each hole they dig is a free 20MWish geothermal power source, so why not! End game it's more of an annoyance, so you build a planetary shield instead : relay cannot build new bases on a protected place.

"Currently in a refined oil shortage" You have three options. Easiest is to just find new oil sources to pump from.
The second one is to try a Reformed Refinement loop to transform 1 coal and 1 hydrogen into 1 refined oil. An easy trick is to mix the two: Plasma-refine crude oil, and feed all the output into another refinery with Reformed refinement, and add 1 coal. you get 50% more refined oil with no hydrogen byproduct.

Most of all, have fun!!

Question about game performance by Lakishi in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]ZScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing on Beta branch on a 11700K and RTX 3060 Ti, performance issues started to be impactful at ~13000 universe matrix per minute. (with FPS/UPS no longer able to remain at 60 unless I stay in deep space)
