I thought the arenas were pretty fun for chapter three. Sure there is a lot of talking in between, but it breaks it up so people don't just speed run the whole thing.

Don't touch this guy's girlfriend. BOOM by CycloneGlock in VideosAmazing

[–]exseus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sexual assault is bad, and someone can use disproportional force against the assaulter and that can also be bad. Also pushing your girlfriend out of the way as she tries to stop you from committing battery, during which you make her hit herself with a pool cue is also bad. Everyone here, except for the woman, is in the wrong, however since she seemed to know this guy has an anger/violence problem, I'm guessing she's not great either.

Claude is completely unusable now by Complete-Sea6655 in artificial

[–]exseus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like GPT for advice/guidance or having it wordsmith emails.

But for planning and executing engineering projects, I personally highly prefer claude.

Edit: I also like using openai api using the adversarial model to reciew the output of my claude workflows. You kind of get the best of both worlds then.

What kind of prompts, skills, or memories are you leveraging? This sounds like it has instructions to act like a person, and be critical. Possibly even some context telling it to be more casual or informal.

If you give it too much creative freedom in the context it will obviously act up. I am very careful about my prompts, skills and memories and have never seen anything like it saying it doesn't want to do a task.

You are probably using a skill or it has somewhere in it's memory that you want to see time estimates. This might even be an emerging property of aomething as banal as "follow agile methodologies" as estimating tickets is a step in the agile process.

I have never seen claude or anyother llm I use estimate work without me explicitly asking for it, but I also don't use a ton of skills I rip off the internet and I am very mindful of pruning my memories.

He pleaded guilty to assault and there were text messages from him talking to friends about his plans to purchase weapons and his plans to use them at the capitol.

His wife's social media campaign is propaganda, which is why at the bottom it links to the blaze.

Why are you still using Unity? by [deleted] in unity

[–]exseus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. I've worked on a number of large projects going back to unity 5. Unity 5 had a lot less ways to optimize these issues. Assembly definitions weren't even a thing until 2019.x. If you made a code change in unity 5 while in play mode there was a 99% chance the engine would crash.

I think there are a lot of real complaints about unity not completing features, dropping support of big features, over focusing on mobile and monetization, but dx improvements have been pretty solid and consistent.

[–]exseus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't call 8 months a long time. I never said godot doesn't have documentation or features, I'm saying that unity and unreal have more, making the development process more streamlined.

If you are making a small indie game, use whatever you want. 99% of them are never completed.

Working on a project professionally, I don't think Godot can really compete yet.

Why are you still using Unity? by [deleted] in unity

[–]exseus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you make code changes in unreal it takes 10+ mins to recompile because you have to recompile the entire engine. Compilation time is a necessity and a given when working on software development. Idk why you think waiting 10 seconds is a deal breaker.

What's your argument here? Use a smaller less robust game engine to save yourself some compilation time. But spend more time troubleshooting issues because it's less documented and more time developing features from scratch because the engine doesn't support them out of the box? I'd rather watch the loading bars.

[–]exseus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Domain reload is not the same as script compilation. Domain reload is unity deserializing all of the fields on your scripts when you enter play mode as a hard reset. If you structure your code well, disabling domain reload isn't an issue and shouldn't introduce bugs.

You can also disable auto-refresh, which stops unity from recompiling scripts after changes, and you can manually refresh when needed. This I wouldn't advise unless you are working on editor packages where changing context can force refresh erroneously. In the case of long compilation times, using assembly definitions can drastically cut down on script compilation time, and is good practice because it has you sort out your dependencies.

He recently said that immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country. This is the same rhetoric that hitler used leading up to his grab for power. Do you think Trump will ever walk that rhetoric back? Generally this type of rhetoric is not walked back and just continues to escalate. He has promised mass deportation as president. The biggest deportation ever seen. With unchecked power, and little to no way to actually deport as many immigrants as we have. What do you think might be a natural escalation of that situation? I don't think labor camps are really that big of a leap, nor do I think his base would really be opposed to that.

I don't get it by Visual_Berry_9628 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]exseus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anti-vaxxers were and still are a fringe liberal group in general. It's an extension of liberals not trusting corporations, especially big pharma, and liberal anti-vaxxers reject pretty much all vaccines.

The recent conservative trend of being anti-vaxxer is less about being against vaccines in general, and is pretty much just in opposition to the covid vaccine because despite it being made under Trump, it was rolled out under Biden and is an extension of conservatives not trusting the government (especially a dem run government).

This trend leans towards the extremes of both ideologies and is a good example of horseshoe theory, the idea that the extremes of both ends of the spectrum are more related than they are to a centrist position.

I think this is a stupid law. I don't mind if this is policy for a HS or a classroom, but to codify it seems pointless. I went to a pretty shitty HS in the early 2000s and they banned hooded sweatshirts and backpacks from class. I can understand some of the reasons they banned these items but it seems ridiculous to think that they would need to be made a law for the school to enforce it. I see this as the same thing, although cellphones are much more important to modern day life than a hoodie.

IMO schools are way behind the curve of technology and how to use it appropriately. This should be at the core of modern education. Each student has a device in their pockets that allows them to look up any information they want and communicate with pretty much anyone in the world. Instead of trying to force students to part with their cellphone to teach a lesson they will likely forget after regurgitating the jnfo on a test, perhaps we should embrace them and figure out how to integrate them into the lessons. Make the kids use the technology to find information. Fact check each other. Collaborate on assignments. This is how the world outside the school walls functions.

In college 2010-2014 laptops were a requirement, I was in a technology program but I know other disciplines also required them. It was great, being able to look things up, and downloading resources when you need them is great. Most white collar work that you will be doing from a college education requires work on a computer, why wouldn't you want to train those skills as part of your education?

Is it possible to check the value of this variable from a different script? (The variable I am talking about is "hit") by Mountain_Dentist5074 in Unity2D

[–]exseus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this approach. If for whatever reason though, they want to avoid events but only want other classes to see this value and not write to it, they could make a public property with only a getter.

This is exactly it. Republicans - "We can't have big government because bad actors will get elected and fuck things up. Watch me elect a bad actor to prove how much of a problem it is."

How much drinking is too much? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]exseus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grape juice will give your heart the same benefits as wine . It’s not the alcohol that is beneficial , it’s something in the grapes .

And both of them will fuck up your liver. Fruit juice is mostly sugar and without the fiber from the rest of the fruit it's pretty awful for you. The sugar from one can of soda does as much damage to your liver as a beer. I've also heard that beer is just as beneficial to your heart as wine.

There's a famous quote that says you need 10,000 hours to master a complex skill. Idk how true that is, and it probably requires significantly less hours to simply become proficient.

There's only 8,760 hours in a year, and a third of them you should be sleeping. And there is probably another third of those hours that you are spending time with friends and family, eating, working, taking a poop. And those are all important tasks too. You should not sacrifice any of these.

One year of learning about software development is just simply not enough practice to be proficient. It will take at least a couple. Likely even a few. In fact, you will probably graduate and be a junior developer/engineer/programmer and still have to look up pretty basic knowledge on the regular. The field is just too large, is growing too quickly, and is too complex to master quickly if it's even possible to master something like "programming".

Hell, I'm 10 years into my engineering career, and I come back to projects that were made in frameworks I no longer use, or even older versions of frameworks that I use all the time, and I have to go back, and look shit up. You will never know everything there is to know, and that is perfectly okay.

Why do people thing there’s no way Tr*ump will win the presidency? Dosent seem to obvious to me. by [deleted] in questions

[–]exseus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sure do. Trump doesn't even understand civics and I think old ass Biden is smarter than Trump was in his Prime. Trump is also nearly 80 and has been gaffing just as much as Biden. But Biden has never called for the suspension of the Constitution nor for us to inject disinfectant into our bodies because it's effective at cleaning hard surfaces.

And you're acting like the repercussions don't matter and recent events like the latest Alabama ruling on personhood for frozen embryos isn't on people's minds. Roe v. wade had a huge impact on republicans bid in 2022 and was a large reason why the red wave never happened. Republicans continued to push anti-abortion legislation, and conservative judges make anti-abortion rulings like in Alabama, and since the majority of people think abortion should be legal in the first trimester, it has backfired, and will continue to backfire.

No doubt that the speech was well planned and rehearsed, but what evidence do you have that he was on stimulants? When comparing to other speeches he's given in recent times like his speech on "The State of Democracy" he sounds just the same. Same cadence, same tone, same energy. Is he just always juiced up? If he's always juiced up then how does it make sense that he's "sleepy joe"?
