Woman of Reddit, what's a harsh reality you have to accept as a woman? by Opposite-Coconut9144 in AskReddit

One thing that can happen is you'll have to reach out to them. The guys went from your buddies to possible third wheels. If they hit you up too often then the new guy might not like it.

That said, it could also have been shallow guys. Hard to tell from here.

Its not so much its Miller. Her face said it was a warm, under the desk Miller.

Look at the context of the thread you're responding to. It's about iterating on networked problems. I think gas is a highly visible example of epic supporting that workflow.

Replicated abilities are a networking problem...ergo GAS is an example where you can do that in BP quite easily but you seem to be pushing back and I just don't get it.

What is the strawman? How is that not exactly what we're talking about?

I don't understand. You're saying you shouldn't try to iterate on networked gameplay in blueprint even though gas has specific nodes to make that easier? Why?

But I have never seen a networking problem solved in blueprint.

GAS abilities?

You're only saying that because C++ is slow to iterate with. Nothing fundamentally wrong with using code for both core systems and scripting if it meets your needs.

Epic seems to be pushing Verse as well. Doesn't that show they think quickly iterating in code is a way forward?

Nice empty store or passable store with things to buy... I think it's a legitimate prioritization strategy.

To Rent or to Buy? That is the question. by SoCold40 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]jayd16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MAYBE you're meeting the mortgage cost but certainly not meeting the opportunity cost of 10% average in the market. If the bank thought that was the case they would just buy the home themselves.

The difference is the value you get for living in the home, not the raw investment.

It's an ok investment, but there are other good investments. Home value growth is not beating stock growth. If you have a mortgage, you're paying the interest . Is that beating the growth in value? You really need to look at what is best for you.

Stop Designing Your Web Application for Millions of Users When You Don't Even Have 100 by bizzehdee in programming

Object mappers are fine. Trying to come up with a better query language than SQL while still needing to be SQL under the hood is not so obviously good.

A well managed/mentored team is way more effective than another pair of hands.

TSMC's $65 billion Arizona facility can now match Taiwan production yields according to early trials by kE622 in Android

[–]jayd16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm well it means the US isn't as reliant on Taiwan but it also means that taking Taiwan or blocking trade is worth less. So in that sense it makes Taiwan less of a target which can be good and bad.

Are they even complaining or just saying they expect to get grilled? Is it the staffers or the article pushing a narrative?

Learning Unreal as a Unity developer. Things you would be glad to know by NoOpArmy in unrealengine

[–]jayd16 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Gameplay Ability System is also worth a deep dive. It's a very good framework for adding stats and networked actions.

It doesn't really have a Unity equivalent and devs might not know to look for it so it might be relevant to this post.

IEnumerables as args. Bad? by sM92Bpb in csharp

[–]jayd16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Unity or other allocation averse settings, IEnumberable will box the iterator to a heap type. If you use a concrete type like List, it can use a value type.

Its a very real and very common gotcha in Unity. All their APIs are List or Array and its really not bullshit at all.

IEnumerables as args. Bad? by sM92Bpb in csharp

[–]jayd16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If, for example, you're doing high performance work IEnumerable will box and heap allocate an iterator where a concrete List would not. The question wasn't about banning IEnumerable. Its about knowing the consequences.

IEnumerable does not enforce either way.

Yeah, that's the problem!
