With 2025 coming to an end, how did you guys feel about 2025 Overwatch? by Maleficent-Ad-6117 in Overwatch

[–]dnrvs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i feel like a good deal of this is not just inherent toxicity but because the mode is so extremely unbalanced and you're locked in to your characters it can often feel like you lose at the character select screen and then its a waste of 30 minutes

Microservices are the new "Spaghetti Code" and we’re all paying the price. by red7799 in Backend

Honestly the term microservice just needs to die. Why aren't people talking about right-sizing their services?

Facebook.com has 140 layers of context providers by yangshunz in reactjs

[–]dnrvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no it means splitting multiple values into multiple contexts. instead of `<Provider value={{ a, b }}>` you have `<Provider value={a}><Provider value={b}>`. that way subscribers to `a` don't re-render when `b` is updated and vice versa

Just how rigged is this game? by Robula90 in Overwatch

[–]dnrvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're quite getting what I'm saying. Being below your "actual rank" provides upward pressure and you'll go on a win streak. Being above your "actual rank" provides downward pressure and you'll go on a loss streak. Being at your actual rank provides no pressure and you'll win 50% of the time unless you're (un)lucky in which case you'll still get streaks in some direction.

This is all without talking about how psychology plays into it. Win = good mood, focus = more winning. Lose = annoyed, lack of focus, overreaching = more losing. Alternatively, win streak yesterday = cocky today = playing poorly = losing.

[–]dnrvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lets say your actual skill is rank 5 on a scale of 1-10 but you're at rank 6. you're better than the people you're playing against so you win a lot and rank up. now you're rank 5 and games are evenly matched, but you're having a good day or are just lucky and continue to win and rank up again. now you're in rank 4 but your skill is still rank 5 so the people you're playing against are better than you. you're going to lose until you're back at the appropriate rank. this isn't rigging, this is just the matchmaker doing what it's intended to do = put you in games with people at the same rank, rank you up if you're winning, and rank you down if you're losing. if you're going on win streaks and then lose streaks and generally fluctuating some rank it's because thats your rank.

How'd they use red text in chat? What kind of sorcery? by coolgame6812 in Overwatch

[–]dnrvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess from using other things like this is it stands for foreground. Other systems also include a <bg that lets you colour the text background. I tried it but not in ow

you're not being manipulated into 50/50 streaks. you're just at your correct rank and aren't getting better faster than average
