    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There is a massive snowstorm. Granted Stannis got caught harder because of his giant host but I don't see how the deserter would make it to Winterfell so rapidly nor why Winterfell would raise the gates for a stranger when they know they're being marched upon.

    Ramsey is super smart. They've shown him as such. He doesn't seem to act without a plan behind it. I don't think he's going "Hurp durp I can beat Stannis with 20 men hurrr look how strong I am, daddy!" No he's got something else going on.

    I don't think so. If the point of the system was try-before-buy why not make it so an individual account can download any game and play for 2 hours?

    I wonder if Steam will flag accounts who take advantage of this. Basically using the refund system as a try-before-buy.

    Infinite Crisis - Warner Bros/DC try to cash in on LoL/DOTA popularity

    Someone on the Heroes of the Storm reddit said he was a pro in IC and the pro scene was so small he could just play casually be still be at the top of the heap. The finals between NA and EU had a 25k prize pool and combined for 300 viewers.

    Illidan players are the absolute worst. Supporting an Illidan can be even more frustrating because he dives so far that you are forced to dive with him only to get your ass handed to you or let him die. Neither are great options.

    I assumed Tyrion is taking on the role of my boy Barry. Even in the books Barriston acknowledged that shadow deals wasn't his strong suite so now they have a character who does have that character trait. Dany will marry her dude, she'll fly away then Tyrion will be left in a similar capacity...

    The shop used to be alright then last patch they decided to make it really difficult to use. Anymore if you want to buy stuff I find it easier to do it from the Hero Select screen. Just click the hero you want and pay with either gold or real money. Same for skins and mounts. I only go to...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It is odd how much women hate being said they're acting like their mother. My wife bitches relentlessly about her mom yet does the same shit she complains about all the time. I called her out on it once and things did not end well for me.

    At the very least she is not way above or way below the current roster of warriors. I feel she is actually pretty well balanced out the gate. But it seems like now people expect new heroes to come out wildly OP these days.

    Heroes of the Storm

    She is the best at anti-disengage in the game at the moment. With talents her shield slow is absurd. I think that people underestimate her ability to Unstoppable on demand as well. But she really, really needs a team to follow up.

    Yeah QM as Tass or Tyrande sucks because you're labelled a support for the purpose of match making but you ain't supporting like a Lili or Uther anytime soon.

    I think he makes a pretty decent QM tank. You just have to build her for self sustain. I found myself getting decent mileage by going Regen Master at 1 then that Heal-on-blind talent at 16(??) I am just not sure if she can fit the role as primary tank. She has absolutely zero initiate...

    Does Infected Tychus not come with that big bundle anymore? The skin is total tits as well. Especially infected Odin. Doesn't hurt Tychus is by far my best hero. I feel like I can carry 4 scrubs on my back with that monster.

    Developing on OSX is about 1000x nicer than developing on Windows. It seems to be the people who think Apple makes garbage development machines are the ones who's only exposure to programming is playing video games and going durrrrr PC Master Race LOL!!

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

    If you write code to solve difficult problems unit testing will always find bugs, expose edge cases and give a sense of security for your code does what it needs to do. I have worked in code bases with limited to no unit testing and not only is the code always a nightmare but you don't know if...

    Because your tests are basically If your tests are insanely complicated in terms of logic then you've got a problem with correct unit testing. I don't see how anyone can be a competent developer and not see the benefit of unit testing. And for the testing new requirements if the requirement...

    Assault Egg is pretty legit as well. If you are active about moving your egg around it can make a fantastic ward and also when people see a Murky egg they get a murderboner for it. So you can force them to spend some DPS skills on your egg making it so your team can swoop in and kill them...

    Heroes of the Storm

    If you PS the egg to knock Murky into a 40s rez timer you are guaranteed a 4v5. The main purpose of Murky is to try and turn a 5v5 into a 4v4 and hope they blew some important cooldowns on you and eventually run your way back into the team fight. If your squish isn't getting puffer+octo...

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

    Yeah the webservice I'm on is pretty rough to test as well. It was clearly written by someone who knew how to integration test but not unit test atomically. The logic that you want to test is side by side and coupled with the various JMS queues, HBase put, all the persistance stuff and...

    I was playing as Nova yesterday and my team mate told me to stop killing Murky because quote "It is worthless." Apparently I was supposed to let him just freely split push and rampage team fights. He even went bubble build so my Q+W could kill him in one rotation instead of having his ass...

    Don't give a flying fuck about the lore or storyline but XCOM gave one of the best outright games and one of the best platforms for modding in a very long time. Consider me on the hypetrain.
