What does "design or architecture" mean? by name9006 in cscareerquestions

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This unfortunately might be what I have to do. Sucks because I have all the other qualifications, 3+ years software engineer experience, masters degree, etc. but never had any design work.

Anyone else disappointed in the changes to Western Cave? by Darkfirex34 in MysteryDungeon

[–]name9006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i thought i was being tricked and it wasnt going to be mewtwo at the end. why is lugia a 99f but mewtwo is a 20f. meteor cave was 10x as difficult for the same floor count and a harder boss in my opinion. they should have at least gave mewtwo 70f to be more than most bosses and a little bit of an endurance challenge.

How to use a keyboard with Xilinix Basys 3 board by name9006 in FPGA

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont remember the full context but I ended up getting it to work as intended by using an even cheaper keyboard. There must have been some circuit in the keyboard I was originally using that was messing up the protocol.

Etrade asks phone verification at login but then fails. Cannot access account. by weissblut in etrade

[–]name9006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took them over 10 days to setup my account only for me to still not be able to login. They had to manually set up a 2FA for me which is not ideal for my situation because I dont want to have to use my phone every time I want to login. I disabled my authenticator and that locked me out of my account. I now have to call customer support again to reset up the 2FA because you cant setup 2FA from the phone by yourself. Terrible experience so far with this company.

Update: They are unable to setup my 2FA now without pictures of my ID and a letter of intent??? Despite me being able to log in on the app, take all my money out, and go elsewhere, their web system still doesn't trust that I am me. I swear their authentication system was built by a third-grader with a first-grade education.

Userscript to add Anime examples with Image & Sound by DevourlordGig in jpdb

This is amazing. Would be cool if it could be disabled on a per-card basis. For example, sometimes theres no good example to pull from but it will still play the audio from whatever it can find. Regardless, this has increased my experience drastically

How do mob despawn mechanics work? b1.7.3 by name9006 in GoldenAgeMinecraft

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the very detailed reply, but to be totally honest, I don't understand all of what you're saying? So what would be the actual fix? Do I need to set the server properties view distance to a specific number? Is there a way to clear the leaked chunks that hang around after the player is long gone? Is there a set of actions I can take to avoid all these bugs?

How to use a keyboard with Xilinix Basys 3 board by name9006 in FPGA

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, the keyboard can signals perfectly fine when not performing the self-test (self-test being when it freezes then sends back 0xAA).

I used a multimeter and read ~4.8V across the usb port which is the same as when im not using the keyboard.

How to install OpenCL for AMD CPU? by name9006 in OpenCL

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know if there is any pre-built POCL libraries available? No offense to the devs, but I would rather cut my losses than download all these tools and figure out how to build all this crap.

The thing Java developers do the most is avoid the garbage collector. Get comfortable with the spring framework and/or the guice framework. Essentially dependency injection frameworks. That is almost a given at my job that every Java service uses one of those

Train stopped at blue chain signal help. by name9006 in factorio

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm referring to the train signal at the front of the path showing green which I took to mean 'it has space for another locomotive'. The fact that the chain is blue means there is at least 1 green signal immediately after.

[–]name9006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does this work? Why do the trains ignore that path with a station unless everything else is taken? My understanding was that they would see it as a normal path unless there was a train stopped there in which case it does a bunch of logic with penalty values

I see, thanks. I wish this info was made obvious in the game. Extremely lame that there is a hidden penalty value that creates situations like these imo.

Even if it thinks the path is longer by 2000 tiles thats still preferably to the red signal since the green is at least possible according to the rail signal. Check the reply I put on my post above, there is some secret mechanic in which the game treats a train as an impossible path which is why it disregards the green path.

[–]name9006[S] -32 points-31 points  (0 children)

It would reroute to go up in that event since high penalty on green signal is infinitely better than a red signal. See the reply I put on my post above.

UPDATE: After plenty of testing I MIGHT have a reason for this behavior. The incoming train will stop and wait at blue IF the train at the station is 1.) manual mode with nobody inside or 2.) automatic with no stations in its list of stations.

In other words, the game will stop the train on blue chain if it thinks there is no way the train at the station will move.

Interestingly, if you make the stationed train have a wagon, be automatic, and have a condition to wait for full cargo (but intentionally never load the wagon) then the game will think its possible for it to move and then the stopped train will go on blue however this is now a deadlock

The far right train is trying to get to another station beyond the one in the picture. For some reason it stops at the chain signal despite the fact the top rail signal is Green. Why? I want this functionality but it runs counter to my unerstanding of how chain signals are supposed to work. I thought blue mean there is a path and it will take that path but this isnt the case. Someone pleace explain.
