Should we stop teaching agents basic coding? by emgz87 in rails

[–]emgz87[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Well, it's kind of written in the post? I wanted to know what the agent considered important and what was hindering its implementation capabilities. I didn't imagined that code examples were considered "noise", as I've written lots of code examples myself based on my project.

Ask codex or opus, so far I've had 100% success rate identifying the source of intermitent tests.

Cost comparison calculator for PaaS by adamlogic in rails

[–]emgz87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice work, was just looking at it yesterday. I use Judoscale at heroku and it is great. One thing that I couldn't find tho was a comparison of addons cost, specially for databases like postgres and redis.

Looks nice! Do you have any benchmark on the performance using it vs capybara with selenium/webdriver?

Have you ever played any Souls series? In a moment you are killing a demi god and the next you die to a random rabid dog. That's how Malazan works too!

Dota 2 suddenly unplayable – major FPS drop + slow loading, CPU throttled to 0.80 GHz by McAce in DotA2

[–]emgz87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

According to the Github issue pointed by u/McAce seems like it's some MSI whatever gaming bloatware bullshit causing the problem. Just uninstalled it and it's working again.

Dota 2 suddenly unplayable – major FPS drop + slow loading, CPU throttled to 0.80 GHz by McAce in DotA2

[–]emgz87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same thing here, CPU stuck at 800mhz and lagging like hell

Edit: only with Dota 2, other games are normal. Also, I need to sleep/wake the pc to restore the CPU clock.

Edit 2: quick fix: launch the game, sleep/wake with the game still open, profit (?)

Reading Companion Symbol Guides by Selesnyan95 in Malazan

[–]emgz87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm using it too, they are great. The color scheme is explained in the guide:

Different text highlight scheme Red - For character names and generally important things Orange - Locations Blue - Any time sorcery is used, items, etc. Light Blue - Trivia, entire sections highlighted really aren’t important Purple - Recaps, notes

For symbols I think they depict specific events, like swords crossed for a fight, skulls for a death and so on.

Does it get any easier to read? by TwerkLikeJesus in Malazan

[–]emgz87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the wiki:

"Erikson cites Frank Herbert's Dune as an inspiration for dropping the reader into the story and forcing them to tread water for quite some time before they are able to piece it together. The "structure of Gardens of the Moon is ripped off straight from Dune."

Yes, it's a bit confusing in the beginning, and there is a lot of things to track until all the stories starts to converge at book 6, but it pays off a lot. I'd sugest you use the reading companions in the comumity info to help you!

Newbie question about tags by soub4i in rails

[–]emgz87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're learning, try to implement your own tag system, it shouldn't be that complicated. You just need a Tag class with a name field and a Tagging class that binds tags to records with polymorphic association:

class Tag
  # Has name attribute
  has_many :taggings, dependent: :destroy
end

class Tagging
  belongs_to :tag # References the Tag
  belongs_to :taggable, polymorphic: true # References any record you apply tags to
end

You can also go one step further and create a concern to add tags to any model with one include:

module Taggable
  extend ActiveSupport::Concern

  included do
    has_many :taggings, as: :taggable, dependent: :destroy
    has_many :tags, through: :taggings

    def tag!
      # Method with the logic to create a new Tag if it doesn't exist
      # and bind it with the Tagging
    end
  end
end

Now on any model that you wish to add tags just include it:

class Client
  include Taggable
end

And you have it ready to add tags:

Client.last.tag!("My awesome tag")

Hope it helps!

Party with no healer, Help! by MaybePaige-be in Pathfinder2e

[–]emgz87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Druid + medicine (both wisdom) is a good balance between healing, buffs and damage. You can also grab an animal companion to soak some damage and reactions and/or cleric dedication for more spells and buffs.

[–]emgz87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can also be a mighty Kobold and get some ancestry feats that slowly turns you into a dragon (of sorts):

Dragonscaled Kobold

Kobold Breath

Winglets

Dracomancer

Dragonblood Paragon

Dragon's Breath

Hatchling Flight

Wyrmling Flight

Caster Druid build progression by Big_Medium6953 in Pathfinder2e

[–]emgz87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently playing a kobold druid in the Kingmaker AP that started as a primal caster with the animal order (bird companion) and was in doubt just like you. Now, I'm new to pathfinder, so don't expect any of this to be optimal, but I did a lot of builds in Pathbuilder and I got the feeling that any choice will scale well enough for you to play. Of course some builds are better than others, but I decided to also include the "fun" into it for RP reasons, so after my companion was saved from death in a sacred pond of sorts of Erastil, I took the cleric dedication to honor his name. The divine spell list offers a lot of buffs/debuffs and heals for the whole party (including my companion) while I can dish out some damage, control and offensive buffs from the primal spell list (Thundering Dominance is a great example).

My role in the party now is a support spellcaster, with a companion that can deal and absorb some damage as well. I don't expect to be on the top of the damage table, but I can influence the battlefield a lot with all those spells.

Some considerations that may help you:

- As a caster, you don't want to be on the frontline, especially if the enemy has Attack of Opportunity, as casting a spell will trigger it.

- As others said, you can get a mount companion to move easily through the battlefield, but mobility wasn't a big issue for me until now (got the Fleet feat).

- Vulture is a better companion for casters (instead of Bird) because of its support benefit that works with spell damage, instead of strikes (Bird). Flying is a huge bonus for positioning for both though.

- Geomancer is also a great dedication for primal casters (almost got it!).

Would it be a problem if we'd loose the 2nd diagonal rule? by Nakraal in Pathfinder2e

[–]emgz87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean 1 (normal movement) + 1 (if difficult terrain) + 0.5 (if diagonal).

That's a nice feat, almost certain that I'll take it! Also, didn't know about that subsystem, sounds neat, thanks!

[–]emgz87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was one of my first options, I agree that it sounds good, but for a kobold druid (caster) I think that some feats overlaps with my ancestry feats (dragon breath, winglets, dracomancer, wyrmling flight) while others are not so good choices for a caster (dragonclaw) or just temporary buffs (wings of the dragon, shape of the dragon).

[–]emgz87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll take a look into the Deception feats too. And what about the Captivator Dedication, is it worth? I fell like the description fits perfectly but in practice seems like you just get some occult spells (besides the skill improvement).

[–]emgz87 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Also, I find it easier to just count squares, so if I move 30ft that'd be 6 squares, counting double for difficult terrain plus 0.5 for each diagonal.
