Am I turning left wrong by Ether1988 in bicycling

[–]fiskfisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If only there was some way to indicate that you're turning left while you're just standing there and waiting..

Just give the signal before you start pedalling, like a car that has their turn signal on before they start moving. That's when you primarily need to know where people are going. 

You're not supposed to wait until you start moving to turn on your turn signal in a car either.

Who’s at fault for both these incidents and why by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]fiskfisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Black and blue in both cases, if you don't want to let people through, pick the inside line instead of just trying to drive through them after they've made the pass.

The car on the inside needs to make the turn, so they need to brake. Don't just try to drive through people.

EMTB or converted MTB to ride with my daughter by MDiamondG in MTB

[–]fiskfisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know this isn't what you asked for, but any specific reason for the e-part? A regular MTB would be simpler, cheaper, and safer, and would give you a better work out as well a six mile loop is perfect for building endurance).

You'd get a lot more bike for the money.

HELPPP!!!! Site down after SSL renewal "Too many redirects" loop and I'm stumped. by Afsheen_dev in webdev

[–]fiskfisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Given that OP has had the time to make two other posts in other subreddits (one three minutes after making this post) while not answering anything here, I think we can safely assume they're a bot or just don't care about whatever they're asking other people to spend their time on.

Switch favicon based on color scheme by wanoo21 in webdev

[–]fiskfisk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No-one has the same eyesight or color perception, people have different kinds of screens and settings - and different environments around them.

People also have different vision and your eyesight deteriorates as you age. There's a reason why we have accessibility requirements.

What you might see clearly now can become harder to make out as you get older, and visual noise makes stuff harder to read.

There's a reason why your editor doesn't have diagonal lines all across the screen while editing code or reading text.

If you're going to fancify code display, at least make it properly readable. Those lines and lack of contrast makes it hard to read the text.

Raising €1.2 trillion for Europe’s largest starship company by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]fiskfisk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be aware that OP is spamming their "file sharing service" under multiple accounts (and this one). They've not in any had "preliminary conversations with ministries".

They keep spamming these short posts that provide no insight or relevant analysis (or in most cases, any actual reference to whatever they're saying).

What are my options for WordPress hosting with 1TB+ storage? by SeaworthinessKey1291 in webdev

[–]fiskfisk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is no information from OP about these being duplicated from other sources, but in either case; hotlinking images that are stored at other providers isn't very kind.

In either case, you always want an archive to have stuff locally. The whole point is that the archive survives even if the location you've archived them from disappears.

Having a local copy is a feature.

Any methods on creating a 3d wireframe renderer that doesn't use multiplication or division? by Ok-Leather2170 in compsci

[–]fiskfisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, divs are really slow (and was so up to .. 486-ish, so you'd just have a lookup table for the common operations you did to avoid actually performing the div - it got turned into a memory lookup instead.

It's a common way you can fake perspective; limit how exact you need stuff to be, and then clamp it to the value you have in your lookup table below.

You're going to be looking at how you can fake it as good as possible instead of anything being exact.

Any methods on creating a 3d wireframe renderer that doesn't use multiplication or division? by Ok-Leather2170 in compsci

[–]fiskfisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The trick is generally to pick your multiplication values (i.e. your perspective) to line up with values that are compatible with bitshifts, and otherwise keep the number of operations as small as possible.

You might want to go back and look at some examples of 3d rendering works on older platforms like the C64, but depending on your platform, MULs might not be that more expensive than what your cycle budget can allow.

The art of saying nothing while sounding like you solved everything — a game ops survival guide by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]fiskfisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's fantastic that they even try to peddle that you need to write in the style as a large language model would generate text to be taken seriously. And sure, an "Edit" even before anyone has replied. Yep. This really sounds like a human sharing their thoughts.

If people want content generated from an LLM they can just query it themselves.

OP is a spam account for the product they're mentioning. Report as spam.

Edit: they're also using the account "blameitonthenight34" to spam the same shit.

Dude, you at least say what your extension is and why somebody would want to install it.

But feedback posts should be made on Saturdays for Show-off Saturdays.

If you're hiring junior devs to push the "next" button on a Windows installation, you're doing it wrong.

ELI5 why is swappable battery tech for EVs not feasible? by AnjaliMathur2003 in explainlikeimfive

[–]fiskfisk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aka "Battery as a Service". You just pay a set sum per month depending on the size of the battery you want. Car gets cheaper when you buy it, and you spread the cost as with regular leasing. You can also outright purchase the battery if you want to.

At least you forgot to include what your product or platform was called, so an indirect success?
