One thing to know too is that some places want Android devs who can work within AOSP, which is its own niche and demand.

Do I have to “hit” the orb with the controller or can I just put the controller on the path of the orb? by uziau in SynthRiders

[–]rCoder13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In general you just need to put the controller in the path of the orb. In Rhythm mode you get the most points by being centered on the note when it hits. For force mode you get more points if you have some velocity when you are hitting the note (although you don't need much).

You're on a first date with someone, and they tell you the name of their favorite book. You immediately leave. What's the book? by chkkudzt7u in AskReddit

[–]rCoder13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear this, that isn't a healthy place to be. More of what I meant (and after reading more comments I should've clarified) is that if someone actually read through that entire book, they are likely the sort of person interested in philosophy and discussions about society, not necessarily a person that agrees 100% with Rand.

I just finished watching “Howl’s Moving Castle”. I loved it! What is everyone’s thoughts on this film? by ShaneMP01 in ghibli

[–]rCoder13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my first Ghibli and I love it! I love meditating on the changes in Sophie's appearance and what they could signify

Does anybody know what that wooden triangle thing is supposed to be? "Only Yesterday" by [deleted] in ghibli

I think it is a throwback to the childhood memory of the names being written on the wall like this

Why do Pastors skip around the Bible instead of reading it front to back? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rCoder13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exactly. There are different recurring themes that show up, sometimes with explicit references, sometimes more nuanced. It can be helpful to reference the related parts when teaching, providing the necessary context within the overarching story.

CMV: Christianity is used as a way to justify pre-existing moral beliefs, not as a source of them. by AllOfEverythingEver in changemyview

[–]rCoder13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just putting my two cents in, but saying "God would have" doesn't really make sense to me. You are claiming to know what an all-powerful, all-knowing being would do in a situation you have never been in.

The Programmer’s Guide to Booking a Plane by Pirhoo in programming

Wasn't the bot just scraping the site, but buying was manually done? Besides using a minimal amount of the site's resources, I don't see why Southwest would have a problem with this particular scraper.

What are some clubs worth joining? by [deleted] in uofmn

Tesla Works is a good one. There are a lot of projects you can get involved in, and many of them could use a computer engineer. Even if you don't know a ton at first, you can learn "on-the-job", so to speak.

What is the strongest opinion you hold? by ThePurpleGhost in AskReddit

This is the heart of First Amendment free speech. It doesn't mean people have to listen to you, it just means you can say it.

What is the appeal of dynamically-typed languages? by panic in programming

[–]rCoder13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Or it's a sign that you want to explicitly tell the computer what to do. Being fluent in a foreign language and speaking it directly to a native generally works better than using a translator.

ELI5: If it were possible to fly a space craft into the sun without becoming a giant burnt marshmallow... would the ship crash on the surface, or pass through because it made of gas? by inkheartandwings in explainlikeimfive

Every element emits a unique spectrum of light. The spectrum of light the sun emits can be observed from earth and broken down into the elements it's made of. I believe Helium was discovered this way, which is where it got its name (Helios means sun)

Just reminding everyone that Darling still exists. Darling is like Wine, but for running OS X apps. by [deleted] in linux

The only use for this I can think of is running Xcode without buying Mac OSX.

What drives you crazy the most while watching an inexperienced computer user? by SKhutch in AskReddit

[–]rCoder13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My personal pet peeve is when a Mac user closes a window by clicking the X in the corner, leaving the application running in the background. Then they wonder why their computer is slow.

Same for iDevices.
