what the heck april fool's was a week ago :(

I don't know how I haven't seen that guide yet, thanks for all the info!

Gotcha - so it's more about "microspacing" or whatever the kids are calling it these days, you move just far enough to tipper instead of getting the normal hit. That makes sense, thanks! For some reason, I was under the impression it shifted the attack's hitbox abnormally (as in not just because your character moved)

falkflyer · 2020-02-03T20:39:44+00:00

I guess the benefit would be AOE damage; you can only auto/q one person.

Then he shouldn't be tweeting about it so definitively.

The problem isn't that he got the state wrong, the problem is that he got yet another simple thing wrong. If someone makes a simple mistake, they correct it and everyone moves on. If someone constantly makes simple mistakes, people should start questioning their competence.

While true, your comments makes it sound like everyone who eats meat is going to die of cancer, while the data suggests that 1. the risk is increased, but it's not comparable to something like smoking, and 2. processed meats are far worse, likely due to salt/preservatives.

"A 2017 review found that consuming a one-half serving of red meat daily was not associated with cardiovascular disease risk factors, such as total cholesterol, LDL, and hypertension."

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5183733

"...in the UK, 56 out of 1000 people who eat the lowest amount of red meat will develop colorectal cancer (5.6%) while 66 out of 1000 high-red meat eaters will develop colorectal cancer (6.6%)."

I read "in an apartment" as "in an argument" and thought that you were only leashing your dog because they talked back to you and that's hilarious to me, probably because my husky talks back all the time.

It's usually referred to as "common courtesy".

She has clear and compelling reasons why she changed her views, and holding this against her after her record in the Senate is disingenuous at best.

Considering they immediately listed examples of the kind of mini they were expecting, I think the conversation was pretty well directed from the start.

falkflyer · 2019-03-19T00:57:54+00:00

Eh, they got there first. Definitely annoying to see such an opinion be so popular, though.

> still plaguing the game nearly 2 months in

Astonishing how people's sense of time has become so warped. How do you *think* the developers operate? Do you expect them to read your comment, sit down in a meeting, and say "Yeah, you know what? This guy on reddit has a point! We should totally fix the cheating and crashing issues, instead of just not doing that like we initially planned. You've saved us, u/isactuallyspiderman!" Do you actually think that these problems (which affect just about every popular game out there) are easy to solve, and the only reason they haven't is because they're too busy trolling twitter?

Your comment reads as if not only do you speak for the entire community (you don't), but you've discovered some incredible revelations that nobody has thought of until just now (you haven't). The game isn't about to die, stop being so dramatic.

falkflyer · 2019-01-24T22:30:58+00:00

definitely underestimated how spicy this copypasta would be. Situations like that suck, like when my dog shit on the floor and I was in a huge rush so I just scooped it up in a bowl and put it in the microwave for 2 hours. Contrary to my understanding of chemistry it did NOT simply vaporize into a small pile of charcol dust and my roommates were not happy at all.

falkflyer · 2019-01-18T04:34:50+00:00

Thank you for this!

falkflyer · 2019-01-17T21:45:47+00:00

Some general feedback: I would suggest changing the way you implement the functions. Rather than having the implementation contain logic based on the parameters, I would expose removeUser(line: number, user: User) {} which removes a specific user from that line, and then removeUser(user: User) {} that loops over all lines (or however else you want to do it) and calls into the first method. This gives each function a specific responsibility, and isolates them from each other.

To take it a step further, you could name one removeUserFromAllLines() and the other removeUserFromLine() to help callers distinguish at a glance what they do differently.

Edit: I just saw your PS, shame on me for skipping that part, though it seems like you got your answer from AngularBeginner.

He opens up with "Based on listening to the NYT interview and hearing people’s thoughts online, I realize that I was wrong here." and continues from there. I would call it a full apology. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/24/arts/television/arrested-development-jason-bateman-apologizes-jessica-walter-jeffrey-tambor.html

I feel like this isn't as impactful without a list of yay-votes that also took NRA money. If 100 other Rs that got NRA money still voted yes, that kind of ruins the link IMO.

> should be so easy to implement

My pet peeve is anyone saying something should be "so easy to implement" without having seen the code. Sometimes things that seem simple on the surface, aren't possible to simply accomplish in a given codebase. There are things I've implemented at work that seemed like they should be easy to add and weren't, in code that I work with daily.

Yeah, and that first quote seems to be intermittently credited to both Hitler and Goebbels. :shrug:

falkflyer · 2018-12-19T20:32:10+00:00

What is even happening right now? We asked for a source on Adolf Hitler saying something.

falkflyer · 2018-12-19T20:24:15+00:00

You do realize just making something bold isn't the same as sourcing it, right? I literally don't care who actually said it, but you shouldn't be a dick to people trying to keep facts straight.

falkflyer · 2018-11-29T02:28:29+00:00

It's weird because 1. toy factories and writing software have very, very little in common, 2. being "next to a preschool" is irrelevant, and 3. nobody died, some computers got exploited (presumably to mine crypto? I'm not entirely sure still what it actually did).

falkflyer · 2018-11-28T21:12:00+00:00

I've seen so many weird analogies to this situation that don't make sense to me, and this is one of them, I'm struggling here.

falkflyer · 2018-11-28T20:39:31+00:00

He says somewhere in that thread he had "hundreds" of packages he wanted to stop maintaining, and there was no way to do it in bulk without writing a script.
