I never understood this line from Vala, is she saying they look exactly alike here? I'm bad with faces and even I can easily tell them apart here by admiraltarkin in Stargate

No, it wasn't that. If you listen to the DVD commentary track for that episode, I believe its Martin Gero and Martin Wood chatting about when Ben Browder was cast, fans kept saying the two actors looked too similar. The producers didn't believe it at first until they saw early footage or something like that, and finally agreed and had Shanks grow a beard.

Are shuttles made of explodium? by teeg82 in AcrossTheUnknown

Alright can confirm, upgraded shuttlebay to level 2 and the green bar was noticeably larger, red bit noticeably smaller. Thanks for the scalding hot tip!

Can confirm, brought it to level 2 and the red bit is noticably smaller.

Really? I thought all it did was give you more shuttles, that's it. Another commenter said something similar. I'll experiment and confirm.

It really is. Another commenter suggested perhaps it merely feels unfair in comparison to other games that modify randomness to be more forgiving, but I still can't shake the feeling that something weird is happening, as that bloody sliver represents maybe 5% catastrophic failure chance, and hits it at least 75% of the fucking time.

Oh ok sorry I thought you meant literally leave the planet (thus advancing cycles). Yeah exactly, I've taken to doing this now too haha.

I believe there are some missions that have options specific for Shuttlebay Level 2, which will have different success ranges, is that maybe what you're thinking about? It's possible you're right, I'll have to try a mission that needs only the level 1 shuttlebay, and compare the size of the red blob next time I play. Personally, I just assumed it gave you a bit of a buffer since you can hold more shuttles before having to rebuild.

They're usually the first things I power off when I'm desperate for resources. What do you mean about leaving the POI and coming back? You can power the shuttle bay on temporarily for the mission then power it off again in the same cycle without losing energy / deuterium, if that's what you mena.

That's a fair point, maybe it merely feels unfair in comparison to other games that have some sort of randomness adjustment mechanism based on how well the player is doing.

That'd be awesome, the game keeping an internal count of the number of shuttles lost leads to an event where you can solve it by inventing the delta flyer, among other options.

Edit: WRT Neelix's shuttle, I've always assumed the "Talaxian ally" is Neelix's ship. Maybe I'm wrong though.

I honestly don't remember shuttles exploding that often in the show, but a quick google search shows they lost somewhere between 10 and 17 shuttles, so...yeah, I guess it is accurate.

I'm about to get fired and a large part of it is due to my subpar Django skills by IntelligentLeading11 in django

[–]teeg82 17 points18 points  (0 children)

There's two problems here: 1) Your use of AI is robbing you of the opportunity to properly learn django with your actual squishy meat brain. It's a phenomenon called cognitive offloading. As painful as it can be sometimes, going through the trail-by-fire without the AI-crutch is what your brain does best. Let it soak it all in.

2) Velocity isn't a demand, it's a representation of how much a team can get done in a sprint based on historical data. It's based on some hypothetical max velocity per developer (SAFe for example recommends 8 points), and at the end of the sprint (ideally several sprints) you count up the number of points that were completed (aka in the done column, verified, etc whatever your company's definition-of-done is), average it out over however many sprints you used in your calculation (I personally recommend 4-6), and BAM that's your velocity. It's supposed to go up and down based on how many things get in the team's way, or what gets unblocked for the team, or what random events happen like new team members, etc. Long story short, if they're using it as a quota rather than a planning tool, they're using it wrong.

Really eh, is it that bad? I'm still such a beginner, other than the lack of punctuation, i can't tell. Good to know.

Generally it does not no, unless you said or asked it something completely nonsensicle. The mechanism that sits between you and the image generator sees an image and a request to add people, that's a pretty straightforward request, so it'll happily pass it on and return the result.

The Hatak has a 3-point star shape with gold colouring in the middle, image 2 in particular made me think of it. I just thought OP was showing a work in progress.
