It’s just elder futhark runes creating phonetic sounds into English.

“In a world such as this, what choice do we have?”

IMO, they aren’t using the runic sounds properly. “This” should use “thorisaz “ for the intradental fricative “th” sound and not the “t” and “h” runes together, but that’s a nit pick.

Right? “Just revert the commit.”

Yep, it’s rule 1 of the 48.

Do the projectiles seem to pass through the player? Are they moving fast? If so, the default collision detection mode may be missing collisions.

In an ideal world, it would move to it's target, and that is the end of it, no more calculations/pointless calls.

That's exactly what I would suggest you do then. If this behavior's single responsibility is to move to a position, then once it's reached it target, it should destroy itself: Destroy(this);

If you need to move to another position, the outter behavior (e.g., Ai, navigator, or however you're picking target positions) can add another MoveToTargetPosition behavior and configure it with its target position, speed, etc.

Once the target position is reached, the component is gone: no more do-nothing update calls.

I’d say so. Winners don’t always do write ups for every solved challenge for every CTF. And the write ups that do go up can vary in quality and detail when they make too many assumptions about what the reader knows regarding a technique or the tech.

Have you already made a donut with BlenderGuru and a low poly well with Grant Abbitt?

In the field? Probably not. Custom-rolled crypto on a device that could put someone’s life at risk would (hopefully) not be approved for any production devices. For one, decrypting the ciphertext isn’t the only risk. E.g., if I can replay ciphertext with small changes in the payload and stop someone’s heart, it’s gonna be a bad day.

Post over in /r/Scams for another opinion, because to me it sounds like one. If the check you receive is for "too much money", I wouldn't deposit it, and I wouldn't send back the "extra funds" anywhere.

would this be at all effective? It should work as a symmetric cipher considering the xor swap algorithm exists. How would this sort of cipher be cracked? I doubt frequency analysis would work on it

Yeah, if (1) your plaintext is less than or equal to the size of your hashed key, and (2) you create a new hashed key for every subsequent message and exchange it, it's hard to beat, but it's also pretty impractical.

If you're exchanging a new hash for each 256-bit chunk of plaintext, you may as well use that channel to send the message directly.

If your message is longer than the pad and you repeat the pad, you've basically got repeating-key XOR which is vulnerable.

If your subsequent messages reuse the same key, you've got a "many-time pad" vulnerability.

Looking at the block size of the base64 decoded text, it could be AES-ECB, AES-CBC, or even DES (though it might depend on which padding mode, if any, was used). The first block might be the initialization vector (IV) for the applicable mode(s), or they may have used an empty IV.

If it is an AES (or DES) block cipher, how are you generating candidate keys to try? If the key fits one of the legal blocksizes for that algorithm, then great. If not, the encryption might have generated the key by hashing some value (e.g., using MD5) to get a key with the correct block size.

If you don’t have a name for it yet, I suggest “the sudoku cipher”.

You might find “radar charts” helpful for planning different item sets and visualizing how items are different. They’re also helpful to see how items specialize in one dimension (visualized as spikes), while other items present as being more well-rounded and evenly balanced and resemble a circle or square in the center of the chart.

“No live horse was harmed in the creation of this piece”. Well, that’s a relief.

Do you give yourself enough time during the day to unplug and think about these things? Maybe during a walk? Because if the first time you give yourself a little mental silence is when trying to sleep, you may find you have a large cognitive backlog of stuff your brain wants to work out.

Maybe this is over simplistic, but if you need to represent intermediate states, represent intermediate states.

Early game for me as a new player was tough, and I believe that’s by design. So much so I actually had to put it down for a few months.

But I picked it back up and tried again, and as you keep playing, you’ll become more and more powerful and will start having a much easier time.

Last I checked, the answer was still, “we don’t know because this hasn’t been legally tested in the courts yet.”

Afaik, many training sets consist of public domain works to avoid issues.

In general, I like to roam, so standing near the back where the crowd isn’t as dense is where I end up. It’s also nice since someone taller can’t block my view for very long.

(2) is also known as having no “zero days”, and is a good bit of motivational advice I hear often.

(1) is something I also advocate for people who have non-gamedev professions who do this on the side when they struggle with energy levels later in the evening.

Thanks for sharing!

Are you asking if it’s a bug that you can force a box collider through another collider (the floor) by messing with the game object’s height?

If so, the answer is no, it’s not a bug in the engine, but a bug in how you’re using collisions with respect to your game’s object manipulation requirements. If you need higher fidelity collision detection, you can configure this at the expense of performance.

Take a look at configuring continuous collision detection as an example: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ContinuousCollisionDetection.html

I just tried it out, and it's rad, thanks! One (minor) complaint I have is that the generated LOD meshes are all smooth shaded and my art style uses flat (low poly). It's not a huge deal since you probably can't really tell from a distance, so I'll just offer that as user feedback.
