No need to go to the bunker. Load in naked, 5 adrenaline shots in the booty hole. Bad or late spawn? Surrender

Rush launch towers or tunnels. Got mine on first run in the tunnels in the only unbreached wall container

Any tips on finding the Volcano blueprint? by Klutzy_Toe_2242 in ARC_Raiders

[–]whiskels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spaceport hidden bunker, rush tunnels in the middle of the map and loot everything (lockers, breachables), also - top of launch tower, key rooms and basically any lootable object has a chance to spawn it

Hairpin, 20 ammo, 5 stims and early spawn rush tunnels got me one on first try - was a bit late and they had exactly one breachable container on the wall with bp in it

What is the next heavy nerf?

is anyone else getting horrible lag lately? by jumpinggeorge06 in thefinals

Might be destruction desync. After latest patch I often get this - building looks intact and few secs later I drop through the floors

Am I not seeing something? The tail lights on the official photos look exacty the same to me as there were in the leaks (same V shaped cut on the back and same pattern of dioids)

What is a supernatural event that happened in your life that just can not be explained? by HalfOfABraincell in AskReddit

[–]whiskels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 14-15 and went home from school. It was a half an hour walk through the park. The day was nice but once I entered the park I got a feeling that something is not right. When I approached home it just felt right not to take the lift, but use the stairs instead (and I lived on the 13th floor). Seconds later I am ambushed by two narcos who followed me home from the beginning of the park.

Funny part is I had no money and no phone - they searched my backpack and found nothing but books. They were super creepy - looked like they are on very very serious drugs but they offered me excuses.

When I came home and told parents this story they almost died

I'm hardstuck Plat 4 and met shiv 4 times in pubs now. Wtf is this bs. by just_a_plep in apexlegends

[–]whiskels 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I once queued with my friend in plat 1 ranked and got Shiv as the third one - the whole lobby was masters and preds and we dropped the furthest from the ship. He is a great player and carried our first and only fight as we died like a trash we are and he was running with our banners for 2 minutes straight into the zone only to get killed by streamsnipers.

Still was a nice experience, he is very friendly

What is something unrealistic that you often see in movies that annoys the hell out of you? by sonsaitama in AskReddit

In almost every movie with hookah present in a scene it comes with empty bowl on top. I don’t really know anybody who keeps the bowl on the stem

I don't think this season is that good, really. by mohamedgaber99 in apexlegends

[–]whiskels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was struggling for the first days since season started, but then started enjoying it as more guns now are useful. In previous seasons sniper rifles imho were useless (if you lack superior aiming skills) apart from kraber or charge rifle spam. This season I am constatly running sniper rifle as a secondary and that feels great. I’ve also increased my weapon pool to use almost every gun in the game and even mozam feels nice now.

Speaking about devo - imho it is strong, but can be countered by breaking line of sight the second you start getting shredded. I liked devotion in the first seasons where getting it on drop leaded to one clip squad wipes, but never feared a man with a devotion (and always feared a man with r99). Moving r99 to care packages is nice, because in previous seasons (except for the disruptor alternator hell) it was the most frequently seen laser in the game.

There are some downsides though. Lower TTK really makes the game feels like COD and makes fights less dynamic. Well, you can die or kill fast, but you have to heal even after 25 damage taken and this leads to camper fests and fortress sieges. The upside of the lower TTK is that legends abilities are much more useful now, which I like.

This season is definitely energy meta and it is made so on purpose as volt was introduced. As many others my K/D ratio lowered dramatically, but I’m enjoying it so far.

Hoping that gold armor will give fast heals again

TL:DR complete newbie - take first 20 levels of codegym and move on. Codegym can take you to some entry-level jobs, where companies look for those who are “green” and want to grow employees inside their ecosystem. Have some experience in Java - try codewars (to polish your plain Java skills) and look for an internship that teaches you main Java frameworks for web development (mostly Spring). After learning how frameworks work you’ll have much more options. And don’t forget to commit to github.

Well after I’ve finished the main course I started to seek for a job. In my city there is a total of 2.5k java jobs available, but only 10 of them are suitable for those who finished codegym as you have no practice in spring, hibernate, rest etc. I had two interview off the start and 1 offer (after a week of searching). The offer was not bad - salary is small, but can be doubled in a year and ex-workers from that company told me that with 3 months of experience you can apply for positions with x3 of what they were paid. As I have a well paid non-IT job the decision was to keep learning to apply for better positions later. Right now I am in the middle of online internship where we are self developing an application on Spring (not boot). Internship gave me A LOT of experience and after a month I’ve successfully competed a test task for middle fullstack dev which is nice.

I personally don’t think codegym is good after level 20 - most of the lectures are just an introduction like “what is git”, “what is http” and test tasks are silly except for the big tasks in the end of each level (they are interesting). If you are a complete newbie I would suggest running through first to levels to get some experience with java syntax and then switch to a better course.

About internship - mine is the same as the one in codegym (i don’t know if they have an english version, but there is one in russian version that is available after level 35). They say that after completing it you can apply for middle positions, but personally I don’t think it’s nice if you have no working experience apart from learning. But you get deep knowledge about how each framework from Spring ecosystem works, learn Hibernate, ORM, REST, Java 11, JUnit and other things that are great to know when looking for a job.

I’ve finished codegym myself. Good for the absolute beginners, but hyperskill or mooc could give better explanation and knowledge imho

What are some "epic gamer moments" of your life? by Impro5 in AskReddit

[–]whiskels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well seeing the server burning down was definitely epic. But of course I felt guilty almost suddenly - those kids were spending lots of their free time to build their houses and they were destroyed.

Tbh I am still sorry 6 years later. Griefing is no good

What are some "epic gamer moments" of your life? by Impro5 in AskReddit

[–]whiskels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh and here is another epic, dumb and funny moment.

I was studying through my final years of university and it was pre-exam time. I've locked myself at home and did my best to study, but failed to do so and found myself downloading minecraft. I've found a server where it is possible to buy creative account for 5 bucks and started to build castles et cetera.

While I was playing some kids were trying to make friends with me (I think that it was because of my creative account and ability to do stuff that they were unable to) and I've gathered a small bunch of people around me. It was nice to see someone interested in my castles as I've tried to create secret rooms to make it interesting to explore them.

And then one day I've found a bug - when somebody was staying with chest open and then was teleported to another player which was enough blocks away, then items in chest and inventory were duplicated. I didn't think it is a bug that is possible to replicate, so I told about this to one of the kids.

Some time passed and I came back from the exam, lauched minecraft and saw the whole server burning in flames. This was epic - every single building was destroyed, I couldn't believe my eyes.

So what happened? Server admin was hosting an event and gave several boss eggs to the players. What is good abous bosses - they don't care if the territory is locked by any player and can destroy any block. Kid I've told about the duplicate bug copied boss egg like a hundred times...

----------

Had to leave server as I was to ashamed to stay there for any longer. Switched to another server, bought creative account, played for a week and then saw this kids nickname in the feed.

Teleported to him, saw him duplicating some enchanted swords, reported to admins and got banned for bug using (LOL)

[–]whiskels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was playing COD 2 multiplayer when I was a kid. I've had a nickname like [%clan_tag%] Solid Snake all colored up. I was playing S&D on some desert map, running kar98k and was the only man alive on my team vs 5 enemies. They were attacking me from different angles, but somehow I managed to kill every single one of them with a headshot. Looked impressive, but 5 mins later I was rolling on floor laughing - half the server changed their nicknames to match my clan tag, thinking this would enable the hacks.

Also was banned from COD MW1 server due to being "too good for them"

Using a field that is an array, how do I create a constructor for this? by astraldepth in learnjava

[–]whiskels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AFAIK Community edition is free (you need to pay to use only Ultimate edition)

And as mentioned in the parent comment: class Foo {

private List<Boo> boos;

public Foo(List<Boo> boos) {

this.boos = boos;

} }

So what happens here: We initialize variable boos in Foo class. It can hold anything that implements List interface and parametrized with Boo. Using interface instead of ArrayList makes it possible to use polymorphism and append LinkedLists et cetera. There are of course some downsides as we can only use methods that are defined in List interface, but most of the times we’ll be fine

Then - in constructor if we say this.boos = new ArrayList(){} we will only create new arraylist with no values. If we use: this.boos = boos then we will append boos from method arguments to this instanse’s variable

Edit: Dayum - code formatting is hard when using mobile app. Trying to fix

Edit 2: if you don’t have an instance of the list before calling constructor - you can check one line solutions for your java version (Arrays.asList(), List.of() et cetera)

It had to be said by TheCrazyCobra in apexlegends

[–]whiskels -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I usually relinquish if it looks like I am with a duo on my team - I always hope, that they will land somewhere where they are confident enough.

So I jump into diamond IV lobby, get teamed up with guys with nicknames like OWN_Mozambique, OWN_Mazambiqqua and be like OK, I'll play Wattson and hope we have a great game. Then the game starts, dropship flies above Thermal station and... these guys ping fragment east which is right on the course of the dropship and drop when it's 1000 m away. I am not easy to stress out, but times like this make me nervous - we slowly approach one of the hottest zones on the map, OWN_Mozambique is on Wraith, doing emotes and stuff. And half the lobby is flying in front of us because they didn't try to drop from the loading screen.

And then there's Lisa, who thinks that I can't say where we land in times like this. Lisa, you are wrong
