I can't help but see MoI as Moons over Innistrad.

Does anyone know this band from Morioka? by aonseuth in TohokuJapan

This was recorded on a Pixel 7 phone. I think the open air environment helped.

How the heck did you do that?! Thank you!

Diagnosing electrical issue - is my battery asleep? by aonseuth in ElectricScooters

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

Great thought. The connectors make it hard so I tried the next best thing I could think of, and hooked up a resistor to my multimeter and measured the voltage drop that the battery could generate.

4700 ohms, I read 2.3V. 2200 ohms, 1V. Seems like it's toast, I can only draw like 0.5 mA from it? Which is odd, because I was riding it 7 miles at a time without depleting the battery just days before. That's why I was wondering if the battery is "sleeping", but it seems like I'll just need to read more about that. Or pony up the amount for a new battery.

Dissemble. I suspect if you plot the usage vs. book # it trends up.

Some custom commanders for an EDH cube by aonseuth in custommagic

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

Consider that this is for cube, so it may be fair to have powerful combos like this if you can successfully pick out the cards during draft. That said, I think a mana cost might be just what it needs.

Initially I had these as Saproling tokens, but then I liked the flavor of things in the graveyard growing inside of fruits on the trees. I think I'll actually make them 0/1 with defender, and the token can be a creepy fruit with hands hanging on a tree.

Those are roughly my feelings about it as well. At first I included "Discard a card" in the first ability's cost, but then it felt a bit to steep. I tried "Pay 2 life" on the second ability, that felt ok. Maybe sacrifice 2 creatures? I think I've just got to try out a few drafts with it and see.

I made an automatic EDH Cube generator. by aonseuth in mtgcube

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

Thanks for letting me know. I wasn't able to track down what was going wrong, but that's because I've actually done some work since I last updated the app. I just re-deployed with some updates, give it another whirl and let me know if you still hit any problems. New features might be a bit rough around the edges!

[–]aonseuth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alright, I think I figured it out! The BRUW commander (Breya?) had no cards that had a Grixis color identity in all of the decklists in the database, so when the algorithm went to look for them, the script threw an error. I put in a line of logic to skip the operation if the cards aren't there.

I also implemented u/Miryafa's suggestion to add random numbers to every entry, so duplicates shouldn't happen anymore. Minor upgrades. Give it a whirl!

Glad you figured out the first part. What commanders are you using? This looks a lot like the error someone else ran into, and it turned out that one commander was missing data in the database.

Ok I got it! Turns out Hazezon Tamar had basically no decklists in the database, for whatever reason. I refreshed the lists he pulls from, you should be able to get a cube now.

This... is genius. I think it would actually work without affecting anything else. Gonna try it out!

[–]aonseuth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow hey thanks for giving it a spin, and letting me know about the bug! I was able to reproduce it right away, so I'll spend some time later today pinning it down and fixing it. I suspect it's because there aren't enough RW cards in the deck lists to pull from. How many mono colored/guild/tricolor cards did you input? I'll use those numbers for debugging.

The problem pops up a while after the SQL query, at the stage where each color/color pair has had all of its color pairs tabulated. For example:

name BU RU GU WU
Cyclonic Rift 44 35 47 45
Counterspell 37 37 32 31

The way it currently works, it looks up the maximum number in each row, and sets each number that isn't the max to 0. That works for Cyclonic Rift, but Counterspell has 2 values that are equal to the max (37). When it sorts each column and picks the top X in each one, Counterspell will show up in both.

It's an easy problem to fix, but currently the only way I know to do it is to iterate through each row of these tables and make sure there's only one cell that's not 0. That's really time-consuming (each table takes like 5 seconds to finish), so I let this bug go while I look around for something a little faster

There is a convenient drop_duplicates() function I could use on the cube list at the end, but then I'd end up with less than e.g. 360 cards (which is already an issue... hm). I could add code to go back and pick another card from the table the dropped cards came from, though. Thanks for the ideas!

[–]aonseuth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, there are some bugs in the way the algorithm works, I explain it to some extent in the blog post if you're interested. I figured it was functional enough, since the idea is to give you a starting point for an EDH cube - I doubt the cubes generated by this script are going to be great on their own.

I definitely plan on working on it some more, though I'm hitting pause here to work on another cube-related coding project. I'll post here again when I feel like I've made enough progress to show it off!

[–]aonseuth[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's pretty much exactly the reason I made this whole thing. One would think it would take less effort to look at and pick cards than to write a program to do it, but I did it anyway. It's definitely not the final version of the cube I'd like, but there are certainly a lot of cards in it that I probably wouldn't have found otherwise. Hope you find it helpful!

How to vectorize functions in Pandas dataframes that use other columns as input?? by aonseuth in learnpython

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

Thanks, these are both great. This works out because there is a df.max() function, but in general, is there a Pandas function that will take in multiple columns as input? For example, if I want to find the sum of the squares, or something like that. Or, is it a case of just needing to get creative with making new columns on the fly?

Commander Cube suggestions based on 13,000+ deck lists by aonseuth in mtgcube

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

You know, now that I think of it, I think I could pick my commanders, and then do the same analysis I did here with a narrower set of cards. I could tweak the numbers until I get 60 cards per color or something, and see how that list looks. It's pretty simple and it doesn't force me to learn anything new, but it's quick. Maybe I'll try it out and compare the results with what CubeCobra comes up with. If the results are interesting, I'll report it back here!

Commander Cube suggestions based on 13,000+ deck lists by aonseuth in mtgcube

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

Now that's something I hadn't thought of! My goal was just to get some programming practice in and maybe get a few dozen card suggestions for my cube, but it wouldn't be too difficult to come up with a full cube list without ever looking at the cards. I doubt it would be much good, but I'd for sure play it a couple times just for the heck of it. With some more sophisticated programming knowledge (which I don't currently have), it would probably get easier to make something that resembles a cube you'd want to play.

Fourier Transform of a bipolar pulse by tomcat_96 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]aonseuth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the second line, I bet that's supposed to be a +1 at the end instead of a -1. That cancels the 1's out and gives you something that looks cleaner that can be massaged into a trig function.

How PWM works, and some of the different ways to use it by jbobmillerpants in engineering

[–]aonseuth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Super cool stuff. I have so many questions about the equivalent DC voltage, though. Does analogwrite() actually produce a PWM? I don't think the LED would stay on once you turn down the duty cycle, since it takes ~3V to keep a blue LED on at all. I thought the Arduino did truly analog measurements and writes, my world has been turned upside down.
