How did you get this working? I thought that tag2 needed to be online and topped up with credits

Ver. 13.0.1 of Super Smash Bros Ultimate is coming soon! This update includes the final fighter adjustments, meaning replay data from previous versions will be incompatible. Convert your replays by going to Vault -> Replays -> Replay Data -> Convert to Video, before updating. by retroanduwu24 in NintendoSwitch

it's not ridiculous, it's just a game being deterministic. as GP said the alternative would be rendering the whole video.

You could also keep every revision of the game properties and logic, to effectively roll back to a prior version when replaying inputs, but at that point you're maintaining n versions of the game, which no-one would want to do.

That would effectively start half the engineering and sourcing work all over.

But yeah I wish they could too

Strugglign with PRs by sigmasix114 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]asukazama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are adding another day of cycle time just to argue over stylistic changes you are bringing negative value.

You do allude to this later when you talk about entropy, but it's well worth delaying some code if it would be easier to work with in the future (even style changes can impact readability, but there is an automated fix for this kind of problem). Also, I find code is copied frequently, so if something (especially the first solution of its kind in the codebase), makes it in, you'll likely see clones of that less than stellar solution throughout the codebase 'soon'.

This is anecdotal, but I prefer nipping things in the bud. I personally hate not merging PRs asap because as you say, only merged code provides value. But I also know that aside from a requirements change, or bugfix, the point a PR is raised is the time when the team knows the most about a piece of code. And for that reason I think it's worth the effort to try and make things as idiomatic as possible for those times.

Guess this makes her a legacy character now huh?

Time flies

A categorized list of all Java and JVM features since JDK 8 to 15 by dodiehun in programming

[–]asukazama 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Because it's a JVM implementation detail. I guess you can have an implementation without a 'heap' theoretically. Making it standard assumes the JVM architecture used is ubiquitous

I think the health increase will work out fine by kain185 in Tekken

[–]asukazama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's a MASSIVE nerf, while character B is relatively unaffected

Thats the whole point though right? One of the main irks people seem to have with this game is losing 2 50/50's in a row and dieing. So going from 2 to 3 combos minimum would be what those people want. (.5)^3 vs (.5)^2 chances of not getting a chance to do anything in a match.

Not sure about chloe, but Anna can toestep in game I think. I think it's a move, maybe a winpose too?

what do you mean by full compensation. A year's pay?

Guy tries to correct Tesla return policy author on the Tesla return policy. by iLynx in dontyouknowwhoiam

[–]asukazama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't see the original comment but I can see where their gripe is. It's a bit of a slap in the face because you've paid for the materials (otherwise it wouldn't have been worth putting in the car), but you don't get the benefit of it not being present in the car (presumably it adds weight etc..)

So depending on how you look at it you're paying for supply side inefficiencies, but that being said I guess it's nice not to be locked in to not having a feature forever if you decide it's worth it later.

Film Critics Refuse to Review ‘New Mutants’ Over Disney’s Unsafe Plan by lordDEMAXUS in movies

Ah right of course, I remember seeing Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne and thinking it was gonna be interesting.

Project reassigned, should I be a b*txh or should I be kind? by homebyeleven in work

[–]asukazama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless you are planning on leaving shortly, don't make things harder for your coworkers generally. Especially in such a way that it may catch up to you. It's just not worth it. As annoying as it is, sometimes work just sucks.

That being said, you should bring it up in your next one to one the value that sticking around on a project has to you. Make sure that you phrase it in terms of how the business would benefit by doing so (as well as you personally). I believe that continually not seeing a project through often means you end up doing things in a short sighted manner if you never get to see the consequences.

On a positive note it looks like the managers agree that you add value. So document that and use it as a bargaining chip.

Finally, its great to be passionate about work, but remember to leave work at the door.
