Szlia, what point are you making here?

from the non-spoiler thread: can't wait...

It's a ruin and a while ago used to be much more functional.

Because they're just a macguffin that is thrown around when needed rather than being a coherent and predictable element of the universe. If the maesters just had a book with a catalog of 300 of them in Westeros it'd make them lose their mystery. LF just happening to have some valyrian dagger...

Yep, these are all big problems that have no easy solutions. A lot of my unit tests verify mathematical algorithms and some rely on so many mathematical operations that performing the math by hand is infeasible. So I verify qualitatively that the algorithm is working, then set some typical...

Valyrian steel - A Wiki of Ice and Fire - A Song of Ice and Fire Game of Thrones

All the show producers are hyping up the last two episodes, so I'm super pumped.

She had a good bit and filled the gap of intelligence for the wildlings after Mance died. I mean when you're next to Tormund, Rattleshirt, WunWun and a Thenn it's easy to be a leader the audience can identify with. And she's only hot if you like strong, tough women. Shitlords like yourself need...

I like doing unit testing for test driven development and write tons of it. I like TDD because instead of deleting your shitty temporary testing harness you use to run your new code you end up with a suite of tests that not only help future validation but also document and demonstrate how your...

FO4 is almost a sure thing. Bethesda rented out some huge theatre for their E3 thing. I don't even know what other games to look forward to, but in general I'm hoping for some new VR titles.

I dont think you understand the problem. The article describes it very well but the paradox isnt that we dont see other civs like ours. It is that we dont see any civs much beyond our tech tree.

To be the best you have to beat the best. Jon Snow has to fight in real tournaments to be ranked. His kill list is impressive but he has plot armor and a lot of his kills, including the WhiteWalker were sort incidental.

Wow, being able to snipe the gatehouse out of cannon range is a really bad defensive design. We have the gatehouse protected almost as well as the lodestone. I actually think our castle is the best protected castle I've seen. I've for you to take a trip to Kyrios to check it out sometime.

There's also a very sparse catalog of the Valyrian steel blades, both in terms of what, say, the Maesters know and in what is exposed to the reader. Allegedly there are thousands of them and hundreds in Westeros, but they are exposed to the reader only when it's relevant. Valyrian steel - A...

Yeah I was shouting at my tv to row harder, the night's king could've easily just swarm-fucked the boat. Hell they probably could've just sunk it via throwing rocks n' ribs.

lol A few ideas on Ramsay: 1. He takes Reek with him because lulz, Reek gets captured and then helps Stannis the Mannis in some way like the books. 2. He lights their encampment on fire. Melisandre finds some way to leverage to burn Shireen. 3. With Ramsay being away, Sansa plots...

What was your strat? What did you do with the siege towers?

reveite s'il vous plait?

Did you try the, "If you're concerned that a given database is modifying your data after a save, why don't you unit test for that and keep the recheck out of the customer facing software?". As for QA testing software, I'd rather they focus on testing stuff at a system or integration level...

What kind of defending force was there? There hasn't been a real siege on Kyrios since the wall nerf and everyone has ironclads and doesn't want to get mortars.

Episode 8 didn't end an argument, but you changing a major stance in two posts did. Think about your opinions, formulate some backing then step up. If you're going to come, come correct.

They aren't capable of having an action sequence like that in every episode.

Oh and good job fucking Samwell Tarly, telling the guy who is thinking about icing Snow to, "Follow your heart and do what you think is right.".

Oh yeah, Big K Lanny coming back to town guarantees it's going to be Colonel Varys in the Tower with the Crossbow.

Also Jon Snow in the wildling meeting was awesome. Kit Harington aced that entire episode. Going to blow my mind when he gets et tu ollied.

Welp, that episode had possibly the best battle scene of all time in the GoT universe. My wife said she's been waiting for a whitewalker attack like that since the first scene in the first episode and she's 100% right. Who knows, but I'm guessing Ramsay will be successful at whatever he does...

I went and saw this again. Am I the only one who wants to have a daughter and name her Furiosa?

Melisandre is hot just because you don't know what kind of kinky stuff she'd pull out.

They explicitly said that Petyr killed Lord Jon Aryn which pretty much set off the entire game of thrones book. I think the consistent theme with Petyr is that he sows chaos without getting caught, works with all sides then capitalizes whenever he can. Ned could've played his cards better...

Hah, was just about to post that, or rather the more direct article: I Fooled Millions Into Thinking Chocolate Helps Weight Loss. Heres How. One thing I couldn't find was a list of news outlets that reposted it. Daily mail, huffpo, daily star aren't faux-science news sites, so them reposting...

lol, dunno but I talked to TT6 last night so I think the reports of their death have been grossly exaggerated.

I agree with Rezz. LSH did shit in the books but be a nuisance and I only liked her because I thought she would give people I didn't like a what for.

I think people don't like Sansa, they like the Starks and are tired of the Starks being fucked over. People also want to see retribution happen and hope that Sansa will deliver it. It was sort of the same with show watchers and Robb. Everyone hoped that Robb would deliver vengeance for his...

I'm not sure why people get the attitude of chosing whether to blame the tester or the creator for a problem that exists in the creation. It's both people's fault.

The "Take the overall budget foudn in some marketing material, divide it by the number of seasons and assume they pay X dollars to make each episode" is an oversimplification. It'd be interesting to see a budget breakdown to see how much they pay for sets, costumes, special effects, extras...

Nice kickstarter. It's hard for me to be interested in a bird's eye view MMO though =\

Hoss has already admitted that his wife didn't like MadMax, and so he's not allowed to like Mad Max either. He's trying to cope with being so whipped by mentally wrestling his memory of the movie he tricks himself into thinking it's bad as he gives forehead kisses to his wife.

This would be hilarious if he rolls in like Neville Longbottom weilding the sword of gryffindor or whatever.

The dude gave up his mortal wealth, carved a seven pointed star in his forehead and is dedicating his life to poverty and crashing parties. I'd say he's being punished enough. The big question is what's going on with Olyvar and why he isn't in chains.
