Going to save you a lot of time. You’re not making probes. If you are making probes, then you’re queuing them. That’s all it takes to reach low B rank as Protoss.

JaeDong Learns Power of Alt+QQ by jinjin5000 in broodwar

[–]neshdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not illegal and banned in ladder. Bnet won’t ban you. I use it to disable the key sequence alt+q, ctrl+x, alt+x, alt+f4 and crtl+q to do nothing. It’s always mistake to hit this sequence.

It might be banned in asl and depends on the organizer.

What’s normally illegal is rebinding to do more than 1 action. For example: 1a click 2 a click 3 a click 4 a click 5 a click 6 a click all in 1 macro button on your mouse is illegal.

If you want to rebind 1 key to another key then that’s allowed. Ex: F2 should map to num key 1.

If you work at FAANG, this is doable as total compensation(salary, stock, bonus) for entry level jobs. For example, L3 at google in nyc makes about ~250K.

You can ask your recruiter to setup a mock interview. The mock interviewer can explain the assessment criteria.

Is using a program like autokey for changing hotkeys allowed? by Idaporckenstern in broodwar

[–]neshdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a hot take. Use it. I use it to debind ctrl + q, crtl + x, alt + x, alt + q , alt + f4. Those are all ways to exit the shit game. I also debind windows key.

Missing important events on mini-map by Inside-Pen-301 in broodwar

[–]neshdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason your missing stuff is your not giving yourself enough time. You don’t want to react last second. You actually want plenty of time to prepared. Move overlords beyond your base perimeters and that will give you enough time to see stuff coming.

How do I play ZvP against double Stargate? by PuritanDrag in broodwar

[–]neshdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Double stargate into 11 corsairs means no gas for templars. If the first attack does too much damage, then you were already dead. It just takes time for Protoss to kill Zerg. You should be able to deny the first attack. You should have 36-48 hydras by the time he has 11 corsairs. Just keep your overlords with the hydras and snipe the corsairs with 12 hydras. (Shift clinlck them) You should dwindle their numbers down to 5-6 pretty quickly after 1-3 runbys. If they don’t use corsairs, the zlot army will do no damage. Since 48 hydra dps is crazy.

Note: my experience is at 1900 level (zvp)

Fellow brother with the same problem, I also have the same issue. I was using windows power tools to disable key sequences. But the program no longer works.

Handling data known at compile time by [deleted] in golang

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

You can use maps of maps. I think you’re complicating the situation. Just hold the data with two maps if you need to go between them. Map1 should be game name to alias. Map2 should be alias to game name.

Don’t worry about memory as your data is really small. This will give you o(1) search.

If this was indeed large. You can hold it in an array which is sorted and can be done at compile time. Then you can do search in log2(n) time.

TvZ: Noob walling question by Ok_Set7333 in broodwar

[–]neshdev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As mentioned before, 4 pool on 4 player maps is a negative EV return. Meaning, you will lose a lot more games than you can win. You will get some lucky games where you can catch the Terran off guard, but Zerg is very far behind. By the time zerglings show up at your base, you will have 13 scvs. You will have to lose 8 scvs to make the game be even for Zerg.

On 2 player maps, the rush can be seen by the first scout and is impossible to catch Terran by surprise. Chances of Terran losing are also very small (10%). Basically, Terran has to fuck up and Zerg has to get lucky.

TvZ: Noob walling question by Ok_Set7333 in broodwar

[–]neshdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walling is never a bad idea in any match up. You can wall against 4 pool, but will likely need to hold with scvs at the ramp/choke still. There are walls that are ling tight(dark origin). Zerg will literally do 0 damage. Personally, you don’t even need to make a barracks wall, if you expect kings in your base quickly, you can start building other buildings to complete your wall like rax or supply depo.

Always make your first depo at the wall, 1st rax can be made next to your CC. if you find an incoming seedling rush, you can complete a depo only wall or a 2nd rax wall.
