So first entry of my rebuttal against the Clean Coding book. I actually like the book so far and have little bad to say about it by page 40, but I do have a few things. I'll start out with a practice I follow that I actually like, but can see others not liking: I find that functions perform...

Few of us will ever get paid to create a binary search tree. Even fewer will have good reason to create a binary search tree. You'd have to have a really good reason to need to implement a BST over the standard map in whatever language you're using. However, every true CS person knows what a...

It is still not a full pvp server. A server with zero peace zones would be great. But the reaction from most people is thwt it is too late.

I like solo combos when timing is involved and you have that extra spectrum of micro to utilize. Ex: figbting games.

Crispr is a really unfortunate name for a genetics modifyi g technique. "Hey wouldnt you like to put your unborn kid through our crispr system?"

Maybe I'm alone here but I don't know of anyone in this community who wants them to release stuff before it's ready. The negative folks, including me, say the scope creep in this project combined with their poor track record of releasing their modules increase the risk of this thing blowing up...

lol @ that belly to belly suplex

Bullet sponges are awful. The way you make Fallout hard is by: 1. Making resources very scarce. 2. Make playing the game poorly take up more resources than playing it well. 3. Make it so that enemies can kill you easily when you fuck up. It seems like with Bethesda games I need to add a...

Yeah we are in full agreement.

I'm sure you will get stuff like that, wheel or no. Dragon Age 2 had a wheel option that was "jackass response" and it was pretty funny at times.

A huge part of PvP is predicting (or finding out via spies) what your opponent is doing. Probably a third of my effort when leading largescale pvp is trying to predict what the opponent will do and how long it'll take. This is easy when fighting PUGs and very difficult when fighting organized...

I still like this game, like you and am glad you're posting about SC here, but this is the kind of virulence that comes out of a fan who is losing confidence in the product =\

There is a not insignificant chance if we have a girl next her name will be Furiosa.

Id like to hear more about this problem.

I bought it blindly when someone recommended it and I saw it had good reviews, it wasn't till I opened it that I saw agile and was a little disappointed. I feel like agile (And other 'how to write software' techniques) gets a worse reputation than it deserves because of the people being...

I bought this book: Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship: Robert C. Martin: 9780132350884: Amazon.com: Books because it's been a couple years since I've read a 'programming' book. After spending a small amount of time reading it I feel like it'll either have things I...

Why would someone be against multiple returns in a function?

Wow amazing.

Apoc looks dumb. That artist had way too much fun drawing Rogue.

I don't like strong rules but generally I agree. Exceptions shouldn't be used to control program flow, they should be used to jump the control up some number of layers. Some people overuse/abuse exceptions and it can end poorly. When I find a library written by someone who really likes...

what's that from?

This movie looks so terrible.

That gofundme seems really hmm, useless. SeaShells is one of many hobbyist types building an EMDrive, just she's trying to get outside funding to do it. Would be interesting if Roger Shawyer published good results of his second generation drive, then made a coherent kickstarter campaign to do...

Maisie has lost a lot of weight. During her scenes with the hound it was getting hard for her to look boyish.

wow Gwendoline Christie was on point in that.

I'd love an answer to: "Based on the estimated expenditures of RSI, the current cash inflow and the poor record of releasing content, it looks like the major modules in Star Citizen won't be released before RSI goes bankrupt."

Going to be an exciting week, this is the first pic I'd classify as 'good'.

Unsuccessful People with big egos are jealous of other peoples succcess, especially when they feel superior to those people.

I agree. I thought his acting job was both harder and better performed. Harrelson had to show more range, MM mostly just had to look troubled and cool.

Is it possible at all to sell the ship assets?

Thats the shittiest of shit posting..... Mobile Ned stark. Whats the blue diamond theory?

I tuned out when i read "i unfriended chris roberts"

I had something like that happen today where I'm searching for some obscure problem, after a few pages of searches I find someone with the exact same problem as I have. I hurridly scan through the thread to see if he found the solution, knowing that a lot of these end up with either "edit...

Risk: GoT edition: Get the details on Risk: Game of Thrones Edition Every game of Risk feels like it'll end sometime after GRRM finishes asoiaf.

I'd get mad at how bad this thread is and how much shit popscile is pumping into it, but really this thread sucks because this season sucks. I'll watch the rest and care more if it starts getting good, but man episode 3 was so flat and uninteresting. The only intriguing part was when...

Finally beat DS2. I really didn't like DS2 as much as DS1 and I guess I'm not sure why. I think it's a combination of not liking the levels or the encounters as much as well as being exhausted from Dark Souls gameplay. Maybe it's just using the controller but I never really felt like I got good...

Do people use tanks for Anthalon?

Popsicle you better step up your game in this thread.

I didn't read the whole thread because who cares but whenever the administration says this: You know it's a moderation shit show. edit: Skimmed the whole thread. The above quote is a good summary of how dumb their community administration is. Then again if I were in charge of their...
