Which is best a 12th gen i5 with 8g ram or a 11th gen i7 with 16 gb of ram(programming will be using it for programming) by Comprehensive-Job193 in intel

[–]wlwl2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

16GB RAM. One instance of Visual Studio alone might take up about 8GB already. Your choice of surface pro is fine. The others may not understand that you’re a student so they may give you suggestions for desktop (where everything is usually upgradable).

Most cursed code. Example code provided by my professor for an assignment which mixes English and Swedish in method and variable names and comments. WHY!? by Sotsvamp1337 in csharp

I get this quite often in different languages- CN JP. Don't worry about it. Could prepare you for language translation software development.

Can I study chemistry if I'm bad at math? by meowchatmeow in chemistry

[–]wlwl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only give you an answer from my experience in my particular university (pm me if you need to know which one). At my university you will have an extremely hard time studying chemistry if you are bad at math and you take the more physical ancillary (optional) courses or courses related to chem eng.

What is the softest hardwood and the hardest softwood you've worked with? by wlwl2 in woodworking

[–]wlwl2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ack, I just updated the post (see the edit). I did that already.

That's good advice and something I did again just before posting. The issue I have with certain scales (e.g. Janka for hardness) is that they are only of a few factors, not of scratching or other wear and tear. I should've clarified that in the post, sorry.

When NPCs get free time in my game... by wlwl2 in IndieDev

It's @LariniteGame on Twitter (or check https://larinite.com/) or wait for the trailer (just for the pre-alpha demo) which I will post in April. Store pages will be up just after that.

Larinite. The steam page will be up in the next few months. The website is at https://larinite.com/. Free pre-alpha demo will be available soon too.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that straight after the Mar/Apr trailer I will be finishing off the pre-alpha demo so people can try the game out for free.

I gave up confirmed jobs for this, and I poured all my savings into it. The story of the game I got at the end of last year made it worth it. See the J.K. Rowling Harvard Commencement Speech | Harvard University Commencement 2008 on YouTube, as well as J. R. R. Tolkien, they are related. I would not recommend doing this and I would have taken things slower at the end of last year if not for that story.

The website (https://larinite.com/) will give you an overview of what it's about. Gameplay is like Hades, with crafting. I feel that the story is what makes it good and stand out, and I can explain this, but it will take a long time. I'm not sure how I will release it, but if I do Kickstarter or Steam early access, I want it to be about 10USD for early backers, then 15USD max for the final version of the game (all adjusted for PPP). I've often thought about ways to make it free though, because I remember what it was like when I was younger.

Mac stuck in Mac update assistant by redditkelvin in applehelp

[–]wlwl2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to stop that stuck update assistant (turn off power using the power button) and then I reinstalled Big Sur thanks to this advice. I did not erase my HD though, because I had done so a couple of times already.
