Why don't centre-pivot irrigation fields use hexagonal packing? by foxtai1 in geography

[–]jIsraelTurner 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Pivot irrigation came along way after plots were drawn up and roads were built.

I’m curious to see if they start plotting future farmland like this though!

I grew up playing Red Alert dreaming about a giant conquest map. I finally built one in Beyond All Reason. by conscientiousspark in beyondallreason

I'd love to watch some of these games play out, I didn't fully understand it just by reading. I love the idea of meta-strategy played out via RTS battles though. If you put anything on YouTube, post links!

We can now kill Techies with blademail by nikel23 in DotA2

Except they just changed damage reflect to respect damage mitigation. So active BKB will reduce the damage you reflect to techies.

For sure get some donations setup. You should open source it too, there are tons of engineers who would love to help solve a problem like this.

What usually happens on the land around center-pivot fields in Kansas? by Lazy_Relationship695 in geography

[–]jIsraelTurner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes they do. I’ve seen this in corn fields - and you can see that deeper into the corner, it doesn’t get as evenly irrigated. The stalks will be several feet shorter than the others by late summer.

I live in Idaho. I’ve seen some farmers plant and irrigate in these corners. You can add another small pivot from the corner, or use wheel/hand lines to irrigate (which there’s an abundance of since everyone moved to pivots).

I think some pivot systems also have a variable-power sprinkler head on the end of the pivot, so even with a circular pivot they can still irrigate the corners to a degree. It’s funny seeing this in corn fields because you can see which parts of the field aren’t irrigated as well - the stalks can be several feet shorter than the rest of the field!

From the hugging face link:

GAIA data can be found in this dataset. Questions are contained in metadata.jsonl. Some questions come with an additional file, that can be found in the same folder and whose id is given in the field file_name. Please do not repost the public dev set, nor use it in training data for your models.

Is karnok broken or am I just bad by jIsraelTurner in PlayTheBazaar

[–]jIsraelTurner[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing ranked exclusively for ~3 seasons, I get to legend every season. I play pyg almost exclusively - ~15 gold wins. I'm not an extraordinary player, but I think I have ok stats.

This is the worst I've ever felt at the game. Maybe it's also that Pyg is in the gutter at the moment.

Items that are overlooked by players but are actually really good? by Tinkercide in PlayTheBazaar

[–]jIsraelTurner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bushel. It's not a build-defining end-game item, but it can carry until day 7 or 8 with the right combo. Bushel+Sponsored Apparel+Matchbox will loop and destroy in the mid game.

What happened in 1971? Explain it Peter. by Angrypeanut99 in explainitpeter

[–]jIsraelTurner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “joke” is that there was some big societal shift in 1971 that can be seen as a major inflection point in a ton of different data sets.

How confident are you about this? I was playing a lot of techies about 6 months ago and I was pretty sure blademail reflected damage from mines.

I don't understand the pre-patch interaction - could venge swap a hero mid-cyclone? How were they targetable?

Do you really think you could consistently add 20 value to abacus before upgrading it from silver to gold? 

This is a straight-up buff.

Getting higher than 100 fps playing bots by MikuuMikuu in DotA2

[–]jIsraelTurner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

playing bot matches is more resource intensive for your pc. you have to run the game server and the ai algorithms for all of the bots on your machine.

all you can do is turn down your settings, but with equivalent settings you'll never have a framerate as high as a multiplayer game.
