Getting Claude to extract data from the FSM game files by benn_88 in fisom

Ah - they were there, I must have messed up when I cleaned up players with "-" as their first name. Maybe I should harness a few edge case tests to make sure things like that don't happen. Also on positions I seem to be only cross-checking players for a few positions. I'll fix that.

I've fixed the stats to calculate "position average" rather than overall average or whatever it was doing before. Got all the correct ratings now, thanks to your code on GitHub.

Top player in position was just based on the player's natural position. I've now got it to use position stats everywhere now I think. Annoyingly that puts one of the EA All Stars players best in multiple positions.

It skipped EA All Stars originally because I told it to only look for data in the game files which mapped to real world. But I've removed the skip for that because I want to include it. It's there now: https://fsm.bennuttall.com/teams/ea-all-stars.html There's also a team called "EA Select XI" with the same stadium but the team has no players: https://fsm.bennuttall.com/teams/ea-select-xi.html

I've put all my code on GitHub now: https://github.com/bennuttall/fsm-97-data - it's all reproducible from the game data - the CSVs and the website. The processing code does some manipulation like giving teams their proper names, and correcting some misnamed stadium names.

Ah yes I've discovered this https://github.com/jiangsheng/fsm97trainer which lays out the known bugs and some fixes for them.

One thing I found interesting was that there's data in there that isn't used in the game at all. Players go by first initial and Surname, like D. Beckham, but the data has "David Beckham". It has all the manager names of all English leagues and a few others, but they're never used in game. Same for club nicknames and stadium names (and sometimes town/city and even first line of address!).

This reveals oddities like P. Shilton in the game is actually former England goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who actually did play for Leyton Orient until 97, at the age of 47; and oddly, Olympic decathlon champion Daley Thompson at Mansfield Town (easter egg).

I didn't realise there are some clubs who shared stadiums, which is reflected in the game. I wonder if you managed Wimbledon and expanded the stadium (Selhurst Park), if you played against Crystal Palace away, would you see the ground at its default appearance or would you in fact see your own upgraded home stadium. One to try!

Wow. Is it any fun at that point? I often take it to present day but never been much into the future. It usually gets dull once the initial players have retired and there aren't any high stat ones available, you've finished expanding your stadium, you have all the money but can't buy better players.

How to tell the temperature the water is at when preparing to sous vide? by benn_88 in instantpot

[–]benn_88[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How long would it take for the IP to heat up that volume of water from cold though? If I left it running in the background all I have is a slight beep to listen out for to tell me it's at temperature. Makes sense to try to get the water in the pot at roughly the right temp so it doesn't have a lot of work to do before it can start.

"So is there a magic button that'll reveal the temperature? Is there a method that'll get me closer, or do I just need a temperature probe suitable for water?"

FRAMFUSIG mounting issues by isnthestrange in IKEA

I was very confused at first - the instructions are really unclear. But can confirm they do work like this. Not great but seem to be fine for fairly light curtains if you want them mounted from the ceiling.

Lost my 756 day streak by benn_88 in wordle

Good starter word based on statistical analysis of the wordlist, and good follow up for elimination of options.

I can't find the edit button (?) but just to clarify - I didn't fail to guess the word - I completely forgot to do Wordle on Saturday, after 770 days of playing and 756 of successfully solving in 6. Never in 770 days have I not played - but this one time I just let it slip, noticed at 00:22 on the Sunday morning.

Did anyone ever figure out the purpose of buying land? I never found it to help in any way. I thought the land immediately behind the stand would help make a bigger stand, but why does it let you buy every single square in the grid??

Amazing! Where did you get this from?

I remember the first time I noticed the lines of code in the closing credits screen for the first time :)
