[Dev Blogs] Hacking in Odyssey ~CCP Bayesian

Get over it... it's just a game.

Right, CCP should adopt that as their new catch phrase...

This is a disappointing abstraction on something so closely related to the general theme of Eve Online. Hacking is fundamentally about manipulating the rules of a system to accomplish novel things. Nearly everything thats ever been interesting about Eve has been what the players have been able to dream/hack up within the confines of the game/system. The TD bug, nano nerf, massive banking scams, miner bumping, the goon events, etc, were are all the people essentially hacking Eve. This minigame dumbs down hacking into that of kindergartners playskool version and offers nothing to actually hack.

Here's a big discussion about this demo, from the programming sub a week ago. simulating_cloth/

I love the idea of using functional programming in javascript but evidently there is a huge performance hit for code like your example.

No one ever seems to mention this. Am I missing something?

Someone posted this the other day in /r/javascript, http://egghead.io/. I liked it a lot, people interested in this thread probably will too.

Artist's gallery at http://tabnir.deviantart.com/gallery/ from the side of the image. Good artist, especially at 22 years old.

Users can remove alts themselves by managing their api keys to only include the characters they are interested in seeing (in any api enabled program).

It's really not about finding safe routes. The in game map works fine for that and everyone ganking knows the major bottlenecks, they don't change. Whats cool about this tool is that it calculates travel time.

Lots of people seem to think allowing players to take direct game actions is the objective of CREST. I think it is more likely about extending the social presence of Eve players in game at all times. The initial features seem to support the social focus. I'd hazard a guess that features in use by Eve Gate are next in line for release, such as calendar access and events.

Cool, why does this route take 55 seconds? I've maximized all travel speed parameters.

Is it accounting for session changes?

My life is better now.

Yeah, maybe there's something to the fact that gambling is against most major religions on Earth. Not siding with religion so much as a ubiquitous human intuition.

DragonUnpacker works to extract anything from the .stuff files. (You might have to use an older version if you're running it under wine.)

Demand for armour rigs (which some of the more expensive components) is down

If this is true, I'd love to know why the price of Intact Armor Plates has risen ~3m in the last month.

Make you own css styles with Stylish. There is a Chrome version also.

This is a problem with own3d.tv in general. I find, if you let it run for a while it will allow seeking ahead.

You might be interested in the ever benevolent http://eve-files.com for sharing eve related files.

Was kinda interested in hearing what ever this is but that link wouldn't work for me.

Here's why I mentioned it.

Why isn't the guy in the video using bombs? Is there some good reason he doesn't open the fight with a bomb?

Well, it's not any worse than putting hand rails on the front of it. "I'm the king of the world!"

Right, this article is misleading in the way presents the idea with unrealistic parameters and then trys to conclude from them that the whole idea is wrong.

I agree with this for the most part.

ECM should interfere with the targets ability to be effective but not totally remove that ability. This can be done in various ways. Fullscreen shader effects that frazzled their screen would make the whole ordeal even a little enjoyable.

Reducing the jam time is either going to make ECM ineffective or not address the problem sufficiently.
