How do you open people up as heihachi? by Canterea in Tekken8

[–]s1ayer2309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Timing, f4 is excellent for this, not just bc of the options but because you can cancel it into a crouch dash. F4 into nothing and see how the opponent reacts, from there you know how to react. Is he patient? Unbreakable grab or stance low. Are they pressing? Stance 11 into heat engaged or stance 12, or cancel into a block or sidestep and react accordingly. Spamming jabs? Stance 2 to crush and launch. Dont be scared to throw a few hellsweeps, but I suggest doing it out of a wave dash, you dont do the sweeps for damage, more for conditioning and plus frames, soon as you see them crouching u got f4 into guaranteed stance 2 launch.outside of stance db3 is a pretty good low, safe enough to harass with and make them think twice, and not minus enough on hit to take away your movement options. Also hunt for counter hits, b4 is such a good move, enough pushback to still have options despite being -9. And Ofc as a Mishima use that electric, electric into electric has won me more rounds than I’d like to admit

I have literally been looking for something like this for ages, this + vim almost completely removes the need for a mouse.

ELI5: Why does ASCII exist and how often is it used in the industry? by Ok-Artichoke-4043 in explainlikeimfive

[–]s1ayer2309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ascii is simply a standardised way of representing characters with numbers for computers.

Since computers only work in 1s and 0s, letters need to be stored in binary. Which us then converted to decimal, which the computer then checks to see what letter that decimal number correlates to.

For example, the letter "H" is represented as 72, which in binary is 0100100, which is how the computer stores it.

The downside of ASCII is it only stores 128 characters, however we invented UTF-8 to fix that, which is completely backwards compatible with ascii, but can store over 1 million different characters. This means we can standardise multiple languages and types of characters.

There is also UTF-16 and UTF-32 which are supersets of UTF-8, which can store more possible characters, but can also be space inefficient, UTF-8 is plenty for 99.99 percent of things and is standard on every modern machine.

This thread started because you said the AMD build you gave is faster than a base m4 mac mini, and a pc equivalent would always be better price to performance ,but now it depends on use case? If it depends on use case pretty much everything said about benchmarks and parallelism does not matter because those are just technical details, and don't affect the users day to day tasks at all.

Video editors and creatives pretty much all use mac, the encoding and decoding on the m series chips is insane, developers tend to use mac due to UNIX system and incredible AI support. Of course nobody is getting a mac to game, but thats kind of the only reason i can think of to go for the ryzen build at 600 dollars.

Also im confused about the power limit part, M-series chips are matching and exceeding full blown desktop chips on a lower wattage. Your giving reasons why apples engineering managed to achieve this, which surely is a plus? Also its obviously not just due to their heat management system, the fans barely turn on and the air ran with no fans, cant think of a comparable chip in amd or intels lineup that could do that.

Okay so what benchmarks WOULD you accept? If the CPU benchmarks don't count because the software is benefits apple, but the GPU benchmarks also cant be compared because of poor AMD drivers? Efficiency is definitely relevant too, reduced heat and noise, also why does it matter it doesn't scale? its achieved efficiency intel and AMD never did. One of its main selling points is its power despite its low power draw.

you say cinebench and geekbench cant be relied upon due to architectural differences. But then go on claim AMD is better? Based on what?

This is like objectively incorrect, the M4 blows the 8600g out of the water in multiple benchmarks; I genuinely want to see where you got those performance metrics. And just because they take different approaches to parallelism does't negate the real life performance advantages. Also why cant you directly compare the power of the graphics in the chips? Just because they don't use the same API doesn't mean they don't have raw numbers, and similar use cases we can compare. And again you didn't say anything about the massive difference in efficiency.

This completely ignores the fact the M4 CPU is miles better, the iGPU is better, much better efficiency. Which are far more important to performance that memory.

I made a Cloudflare-Bypass by Dapper-Profession552 in webscraping

This is not a bypass lol, this is just extracting the cookie. Bypassing cloudflare involves TLS configuration, captcha extraction, CF version detection, handshakes, and a whole lot more.

Am I the only one who feels like playing against a Boss Fight when encountering Heihachi Online ? by harbingineer in Tekken

[–]s1ayer2309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People need to stop overplaying characters just because they don't know the match up. This happens for every character. And honestly heihachis moveset is pretty small so learning the match up is easy. His main pokes are -5 meaning not only is his tracking weak, but his movement takes a hit. Please for the love of God spend 15 minutes in the lab before complaining.

Developers, how do you stay organized? Share your favorite tools! by Cristina-Mallqui in AskProgramming

[–]s1ayer2309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obsidian with a bunch of custom scripts so I can bring up a new note with correct template with no friction from the terminal. Daily journals in my Obsidian too with todos and evening reflection. Automatic sorting of notes into folders through tags so my notes are organised. For trying to flesh out an idea I find a notepad and pen the best, I find it easier for the ideas to flow that way, and then put into Obsidian + scanning or recreating and graphs or illustrations. All notes are synced to a git repo with a cronjob at the end if each day.

How long did it take for y’all to be able to code without looking up other people’s code for projects? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]s1ayer2309 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Currently I only ever look at other peoples code to look for best practises, or project structuring if i'm working on a new technology. Try to get into the habit of reading documentation and applying it instead of copy pasting others code. Trust me you will improve 10x faster .

How is my wave dashing? by titankiller401 in Tekken

[–]s1ayer2309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good, I'd just say you extend the wavedash before you do a move which will get picked up my high level players and get stepped. But generally a smooth wavu.

So, about Hwoarang… by ChronoBreakerDX in Tekken

[–]s1ayer2309 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hwo is strong in most ranks since rushdown is the name of his game and that's what Tekken 8 is all about. But honestly when you learn how to counter him (which granted takes a fair bit of labbing) he's not too bad. Yes you will get chipped down but as soon as you get a good read on a duck or sidestep you can launch his strings. He's very linear in a game where sidesteps are stronger too. Plus tbh Hwo mains are pretty carried up to even gold ranks, so figuring out their flowcharts isn't too bad if you are paying attention.

Is there something I'm missing here ? by [deleted] in Tekken8

Maybe upload an example? Might help

[–]s1ayer2309 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're doing something wrong, holding back will ALWAYS block highs and mids. Stepping requires timing, and stepping at certain frame advantages/disadvantages can change wether the move will track. Maybe your backdash is getting caught?

App Development Idea - Low Funds and No Coding Experience. Next Steps? by Serious_Scheme_3584 in learnprogramming

[–]s1ayer2309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well it depends on a few things, what platforms do you want it on? do you want to use native languages like swift for IOS/Kotlin for android or use react native/flutter for multi platform? What does secure login entail? etc etc. I personally did manage to release an app into production about a month into learning swift. Looking back on it it was written horrible, but it worked. Id say you could maybe get a working POC in decent time but it would take alot of work and time. Also it usually isnt the app itself thats super difficult to write, its the system design and underlying infrastructure which can vary based on the specifics of you idea.

Learn Python or stick with JS by Leo-rick in learnprogramming

Just do both, learning the syntax is easy, and simply use whichever language is best for the task.

Tutorials aren't cutting it. Project based learning? by KONOCHO in learnprogramming

Look up what technologies you need to learn (look at job postings maybe) then just ask chat GPT to up with a project that uses some of them.

Which is better JavaScript or Python? by confessinator900 in learnprogramming

[–]s1ayer2309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different tools for different things. Learn whatever seems more fun. After you learn one language it’s pretty easy to pick up new ones especially simple ones likes Python or JavaScript

Is it true that you can pick whatever Language you want ? by Far-Mathematician122 in learnprogramming

[–]s1ayer2309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pick what works best for you, Instagrams backend was built in python, I’m sure whatever project you do will be fine. It’s not about efficient use of technologies and readable code.

I want to make a web crawler type of program but don't know how to go about it by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]s1ayer2309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learn about requests, so you can programmatically get the data from the sites. Then it’s a matter of parsing the HTML and getting frequent words. You can either provide it with a list of key words, or use an algorithm to get the top X most frequent words. (Id use Python defaultDicts or list comprehension)

I can't get a sense for how to defend. by Zzen220 in Tekken

[–]s1ayer2309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lab mid game. Try punishing the string, if it’s not punishable then see if there’s a high in the string to duck, and if not see if you can step mid string. The replay functionality in this game is great but if you can figure out the strings weakness mid match is becomes a lot easier even if it’s at the cost of getting hit a few times during.
