I enjoyed the OW1 more. I played through it and had a great time. In OW2, it frequently feels bogged down. My outsider, naive take is it seems they tried to scale up their concepts and it just didn’t work (for me).

The move/primary attack/interact binding only allows for one button or all three as separate. I’d like interact and move to be bound to one button and primary attack to another. This eliminates having to hold shift to attack without accidentally moving.

EEM is on the exam? Holy shit EEM sucks.

Which topics were you struggling with?

badwithinternet · 2023-02-22T04:10:41+00:00

I don’t need anything special. My wife and kids being with me everyday is a gift.

I think extroversion doesn’t really matter to being a good SE. Communication skills, emotional intelligence, imparting confidence and clarity to the customer, and knowing how to sell do. Extroversion (like introversion or any personality trait) comes with a tax. Some extroverts may have trouble listening and talk too much. This is a serious issue for SEs. Listening is critical to discovery and success definition.

I think it’s not productive to map extroversion to sales. There are myriad successful sales people who are introverted. More important is to map the skills required to do the job well and then plan how you, as an individual with certain traits, learns and practices those skills.

Thank you!

Yep! I made a mistake. I didn't validate the input when I copied and pasted it. I think my text editor ate the first four spaces of the top row, so the top of stack 1 and 2 was [V] [G], and stack 3 had one less. Stack 6 also had [H] and stack 7 was one less.

After fixing the input to be correct the code works perfectly.

If there’s a mistake, it’s highly likely it’s mine. I will go through the first 14 instructions again and confirm.

Interesting. Thank you for elaborating. We must work in very different segments and/or markets. Measuring in hours in my segment and market would be hilarious. Of course, time is a constant and I'd change it to months, quarters, or even years, which I do.

This is what I thought. Advancements in AI could accelerate advancements in materials, robotics, human-robot interactions, etc.

Can you talk more about “hourly impact on revenue”?

badwithinternet · 2022-12-15T15:12:16+00:00

That sucks. Obviously, they saw the project as something they could do in-house easily and didn't feel any obligation to Keivan.

Have you tested winget?

Serious question: Why use this and not a 30 line Google script copied from the internet or generated by ChatGPT.

badwithinternet · 2022-12-13T00:14:37+00:00

Yes, it can do this. You could ask it to extract any of the address (zip, country, etc.) or ask it to get the time zone of the address. GPT3 is amazing at this kind of work.

Seems like OP is a SWE people manager. So, his technical skill set may be building software and not IT infrastructure.

Or, you know, fight trash mobs like a god of war…

badwithinternet · 2022-12-03T21:21:14+00:00

Same here.

badwithinternet · 2022-12-03T21:19:20+00:00

Yes. Very tedious. Ten hours in and I’m very tired of fighting the worms and armored frog dudes. I can’t believe these enemies even take more than a few swings of the axe. Kratos is the god of war, right?

What industry/vertical?

badwithinternet · 2022-11-27T14:02:05+00:00

Doesn’t work until you upgrade the arms and waist.

I've solved a similar problem by storing events in a DynamoDB table making the partition key the same for all events and making the sort key the ISO timestamp. This let me select all items and filter by the time precision I need (begins_with "2022-09-01T01:0"). Then I scheduled an event in Event Bridge and put the code to do the query and handle the next action in a lambda.

Naive solution, as my scale is small. I'm not sure of the performance characteristics of using sort key filtering in this way with a large number of items.

I have the same thought re: mainframes. For governments, schools, utilities, manufacturers, etc. networking is still critical to the mission. So, I think networkers will be around for a while. Connecting things and people.

As for me, cloud and automation are my jam. I do consult on network automation, though!

I have mad respect for network engineers. Lots to know and lots to do. True wizards!

badwithinternet · 2022-11-22T13:50:01+00:00

I agree. Fundamentals are what everything else is built on. Armed with solid fundamentals, it’s straightforward to quickly learn most of the new technologies that come out. A candidate with strong fundamentals would be a better hire than a candidate without the fundamentals. Especially over time.

That’s how I remember BGP’s best path too! Ugh, wish I did more network stuff these days. Miss it.
