    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I'd be sharting my pants not knowing if I wouldn't get paid for almost 3 weeks. GLuck noodle.

    Path of Exile

    I can't fully explain it but I literally hate swapping gems. It takes maybe 5 seconds but I hate doing it every time. With my Cleave build I'd want increased area on clearing then for harder bosses swap in conc. For whatever reason I hated doing it every time. So I vastly prefer builds where...

    Relocating to Orlando Florida

    I never really understood Orlando. FL kind of sucks as it is but central FL? No thanks.

    Path of Exile

    I liked Arc until I had to kill Uber Lab and I had to run around doing piss for damage. Shame because I loved chain lightning sorcs in D2. But the build just kind of felt tedious since every map has a boss you have to chip away at. Maybe I should have looked into a secondary skill.

    Path of Exile

    It is simple budget math that basically every game uses. The game may also have a ton of skill gems but realistically only a handful are used and even then the main thing is damage skill + 5 supports which are basically all +more damage. It seems overwhelming at first but the game at least I...

    Overwatch

    Moonmoon could be pro if you believe Kotik's statement on there being 75,000 pro-level OW players. Fact is Moon doesn't scrim and has never scrimmed so he's just assuming being pro is simple mechanics. Professional Overwatch is a completely different game than Moon duo queue in Comp.

    Path of Exile

    Even streamers who play the game for 12 hours a day are mostly just chain running maps. Doing events like uber, rigwald, breachlords, shaper can happen but the majority of the time you're spamming maps. -edit- I made a mistake and said maps implying serious farmers run a variety of maps. I...

    (JRPG) Cosmic Star Heroine (PC/PS4/Vita)

    Graphically it looks nice but the sales pitch seems weird based on the trailer. It seems to have a static party so I don't fully understand the Suikoden reference, it is turn based instead of action based so not really CT-style (I guess maybe because you encounter mobiles on the open world and...

    Rick and Morty

    Is this now Tyen's personal thread to just crosspost whatever is #1 on the rickandmorty subreddit? I get your overall strategy in life is to just copy and pirate other people's work but most people here already see this shit.

    Wat. I'm looking at less land for $650k. Those house specs aren't too dissimilar to the house I sold in Ohio for 225k. I think you're living in a pretty decent housing area.

    We don't use Hibernate we use MyBatis which does some of the Hibernate-like work of mapping objects from the result set into Java POJOs but it gives you the ability to write your own custom SQL to accomplish this. I'm not 100% convinced it is better than Hibernate (9/10 it is a simple SELECT...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Depends on how DB heavy the operations were. If it was mostly business logic then sure it probably should have gotten ripped out. But back in the day the cost of paying for the database connection could be rather expensive if you need to make it a bunch of times and especially bad if the...

    Which is funny because literally everyone in a giant stack that is 10+ years old is actively ripping everything out of the DB layer. If the people never increased their skillset they're probably out of work now.

    Path of Exile

    They really should salt names. I think the original intent was PoE would play out more like an MMO where you'd get invested in a single toon. In reality that doesn't happen. So just let people share names.

    Overwatch

    I wish Seagull played more heroes. It feels like 9/10 he's playing either Genji or Pharah. Sometimes Mei and sometimes Zarya. It gets really repetitive to watch especially since I play neither of those heroes.

    Yeah Jin Yang gets an appropriate amount of air time. Any more and he would just be too comically stupid. He's much better in small doses.

    What confuses me is how HooliChat will use PiperChat since PiperChat was just using Richard's compression as a service. Hooli has a sort of working version of middle-out but they made it seem like it is Richard's v0.1 version. PiperChat was basically just HooliChat with Richard's compression...

    Does cologne go bad?

    Liked Woods but didn't like Fierce. Then again this is coming from me being in high school so who knows. I remember Fierce being too citrus. Woods had a nice masculine smell but not overly musky.

    I actually don't care one way or the other but since DW does a bunch of work in Python he probably is a bit more hot and heavy for proper whitespace usage than me. I actually hate Python for it's "whitespace is meaningful" shit.

    Your IDE should auto convert anyways. Files aren't space bound so there is really no point in using tabs over spaces (our C++ standard at work though IS tabs) since tabs offer less customization for indention if necessary.

    ESPN Layoffs

    Personally I'm glad ESPN is dying. Their on air personalities seemed way too self important and their ludicrous contracts for CFB while not paying the athletes made me always raise an eyebrow. ESPN is a dinosaur who should be put out the pasture.
