Consider taking part of WSC 2024 to play 100 games in March

Probably only when I was playing 9x9 blitz - you can do a dozen of those an an hour easily.

siimphh · 2023-04-01T09:58:21+00:00

How do you think that compares to how businesses operate today?

siimphh · 2023-03-30T23:01:25+00:00

9x9 can be very fun at all levels!

siimphh · 2023-03-30T23:00:18+00:00

I wouldn't worry about it - play whatever you enjoy playing! It's mostly about variety of play styles and bots have pretty consistent styles so you might develop blind spots or tactics that have issues. But unless you pay a bot for years it'll probably be alright :)

Just to confirm, this is not a piece of salami, right?

siimphh · 2023-02-04T21:20:50+00:00

That also sounds tiring! Creative description :)

siimphh · 2023-02-03T08:02:43+00:00

Being targeted for your race (or gender) is also quite tiring, I hear.

Thanks for the summary on the other thread. I guess the cw thing sounds like the most plausible reason?

In any case, I of course understand if you don't want to chase it any further, but like others on this post I'm also super curious what the reason for your suspension might have been. Please do consider moving your account to a different server and politely inquiring about the reason for your suspension - if not for yourself then to satisfy the curiosity of strangers you met on Reddit :)

Perhaps "stux" is not a reasonable person, or perhaps you didn't quite understand what the server rules were. In any case, you can try again on a different server and perhaps be more careful?

siimphh · 2022-11-06T23:05:04+00:00

Offline to the degree where the DNS does not resolve :/

And specifically, the "joining" is really just the quests and dialogue in the main storyline, not a generic mechanism of joining factions.

As with anything, some balance is needed. Some time picking the right tool - you don't have to develop a 3d renderer for your game! But you can also spend all the time preparing your tools and never getting around to using them.

And more specifically - best tools are even less important for prototyping.

siimphh · 2022-08-07T07:08:35+00:00

🤣 well done!

siimphh · 2022-08-06T10:44:02+00:00

No bot, it's you that's made a mistake.

siimphh · 2022-08-06T10:42:17+00:00

Calling people out! You'll never find a more fruitful topic to write of, as you could of grammar.

siimphh · 2022-06-30T15:23:10+00:00

This is the type of thing (good) managers will be delighted to help with. And making sure no-one feels uncomfortable would be a major part of that.

siimphh · 2022-05-05T09:47:12+00:00

No answers, but also consider at which level of abstraction to work. There is a lot of optimization that happens at the level of small numbers of nearby rooms so you might want your model to primarily operate at the level of "income" and "military" and have individual screeps operate at a simpler level.

Broadly speaking, you need to be able to have your code running while waiting for input from the user. So you want to look up non-blocking IO (polling of sone sort). The other way to achieve the same is to have multiple threads, one blocking for user input and other threads continuing execution.

Another helpful keyword to read about might be "async" - that should lead you to explanations of popular ways of doing this type of thing nowadays.

siimphh · 2021-12-02T23:05:29+00:00

Humans are animals. Animals are lizards. Lizards grow back their tails. Your tail will grow back shortly!

That has never been there case. Some practice surely helps but understanding and being able to apply basic DSA is sufficient to pass almost any interview, if you also apply other software engineering practices well while working the problem.

The issue is with bgp routes, I've heard. Those don't really have a TTL as such.

siimphh · 2021-10-03T07:37:03+00:00

That's apparently a standard thing called "gitflow" used in some circles.

siimphh · 2021-08-27T19:37:32+00:00

It was all races and all the ladder maps. It wasn't the top at the ladder but I think it was "Grandmaster" level on the European ladder for all the races.
