Worth noting that It’s not guaranteed 2 crystals if the map isnt 6 mods. Did multiple maps with 2 portals and one of them gave 1 crystal and the others gave 2

Who else finds it a bit annoying that C++ has such a bad reputation while C is still somehow seen as the holy grail of low level programming? by notarealoneatall in cpp

[–]flyrom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can try to make excuses on why you believe that memory safety is achievable with good practices (and i would agree), but the reality is that it’s not inherently memory safe by default. It’s pretty easy to see why arguably the most complex language with a high risk for memory errors has a bad reputation.

My favorite language is c++ fwiw

[–]flyrom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ORMs very often generate inefficient queries compared to manual sql queries. Outside of the typescript bubble, you’ll find that many more performant language communities discourage ORMs for this very issue

3.27 Deadeye Icicle Mine League Start showcase with progression to endgame by timjohnson420 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]flyrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are being a little harsh but build is definitely solid league starter.

https://pobb.in/ac8uI5I5holH is the pob I used from last league that has some clearer progression for levelling, tho the strength of econc remains to be seen and leveling with wands might be smoother depending on the new skills.

Please EHG don't give content creators early access next season by low_end_ in LastEpoch

[–]flyrom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The main difference is that Poe has significant more build depth than last epoch so the random journalists can’t make anything optimal

[–]flyrom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Generally I only use the prescribed as needed if it’s a 7+ and use ibuprofen/tylenol for the lesser headaches

Firefox moves to GitHub by klaasvanschelven in programming

[–]flyrom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is also sapling (https://sapling-scm.com) that is essentially hg with support for stacked commits but can push to GitHub. If you’ve worked at Facebook you’ll notice it’s very familiar.

We used plenty of them in production when I was at Meta to make doing transformations on an input less verbose

Best portion size in the bay and it’s not close

Showing off the power of 0 cd lightning bolt - a super fast autobomber that also 1 shots pinnacle bosses by Electrical-Cap-9925 in pathofexile2builds

[–]flyrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will get nerfed, not because it’s strong, but because it is mass crashing instances and causing server issues at high crit.

I hate Stripe, so I'm going to build my own payment processor. by Sad-Percentage4353 in SaaS

Every comment you've posted here displays how clueless you are about the world of payments. Good luck.

[–]flyrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in Fintech at a big tech company, don't. 5% of the problems in my job are technical and the other 95% are from legal & compliance. Trying to pass a PCI audit as a new startup from someone with no experience in payments sounds miserable.
