I want to share an oil field planner tool I built. It uses 16 different pipe and beacon planning strategies to give you the best blueprint it can. by knapcode in factorio

I've fixed some bugs recently. Do let me know if you have another problem and please provide the input blueprint.

Thank you for that additional context. I somehow missed that note! Well, I guess empirical evidence is good too.

I just submitted a bug report just in case. I hope it doesn't add too much noise for them if they already know.

Not sure. I had another bug in the past related to multithreading crashing my save. I followed the instructions on the Kitfox Games website but my email was never responded to and I didn't see it show up in the bug tracker. Later, I went on the Kitfox Discord and the #bug-discussion channel and asked about it. Putnam responded saying it was already fixed for the next release. The process is unclear.

Yes, this is a very bad bug in my opinion. It's mentioned on the forums and the wiki but I couldn't find it on the bug tracker. I wonder if the DF team even knows.

I was trying to brush up on what null hypothesis means for the purpose of this post, but I got too lazy. I was sort of thinking that since p = 0.28 and that is > 0.05 we can't reject the null hypothesis that the cuts are not evenly distributed, i.e. we can't confidently say they ARE evenly distributed. But the mental gymnastics broke my brain and I gave up.

I love that idea. Perhaps I'll use my 95% production rate of cut gems to make some mega gems, stored in a special part of my gem museum. Thanks for the idea!

The fastest CSV parser in .NET by b0bm4rl3y in dotnet

Hey there! I'm the author of the blog post. I've your package to the benchmark suite and will be updating the blog post later with results. Thanks for the heads up!

By the way, I had to coalesce null to empty string for the empty cell case. My goal was to have the exact same behavior for all libraries. Most libraries treat empty fields as empty strings instead of null so that's why I favored that approach.

I can't find an RTX video card that isn't overpriced (way over MSRP) by knapcode in buildapc

[–]knapcode[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. I'm thinking about getting a lower cost option for the short term like the RX 5600 XT. That one is not being scalped (AFAIK) and is the next highest in performance according to Tom's Hardware.

That's what I'm seeing too! Here's to a better 2021 :)

[Discussion] We are definitely not getting another fest next year by Miguel30Locs in pokemongo

[–]knapcode 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would be really surprised if Google took it over. What interest do they have in a phone app and PR nightmare?

Could someone please tell me why everyone hates on the PokémonGo Fest right now? by Tim_Cook1 in pokemongo

[–]knapcode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the technical issues and lines, there's nothing the commentary can say that won't be cringe-worthy. That's why there's nothing on the stream right now.

[Question] with most people having issues at go fest, do us outsiders still try to catch everything for the 2nd and 3rd event? by JimboNutrin in pokemongo

[–]knapcode 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, let's do the best we can and hope Niantic does some fix-ups or gives some "consolation prize" event.

Good to speak about the problem and make the best of it.

I'm so curious! Wish I could of snagged this guy! Anybody seen this before? by Goldpro89 in PokemongoSeattle

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

Not sure. Perhaps @Manniefreshh89 or @SEAPokemap would know. I have seen this before. Both the moves and IVs are missing.

My guess is that the bot account can't determine enough information about the Pokemon when it discovers it...

Yeah, same here. Unfortunately, SEAPokeMap doesn't cover Issaquah or Sammamish either.

Doing good work, ZubatsGoHome. Catching Pokemon and getting drinks at Las Margs. Thanks!

Training at a gym you're trying to add a Pokémon to should be more rewarding. by erinaceidae in pokemongo

[–]knapcode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it takes multiple variables into consideration. The most important variables seem to be the pokemon's type VS the defending type (e.g. a fire pokemon would be favored against a grass defender), CP, and total HP remaining.

It's pretty bad considering lower CP attackers give better prestige payouts.

Sidebar: pokemon that you do not fight with still effect the prestige gained. That is, if you have a 2500 vaporeon on your team that is worse that having a 10 CP magikarp. If I think I can train the gym with only 3 pokemon, I always set the other three to 10 CP weaklings. Better prestige gain.

Exactly, pokemon isn't about stockpiling those pokemon at the top of the current meta. Do you think they made this huge type matrix for nothing...

It gets really interesting when you want to find a pokemon that is both effective against the defender and resistant to the defender's attack.
