    When I looked, prismatic oil was 330c in Phrecia. I usually exclude those prices from my league start pob. Either way, I'd much rather they add more sources of target range. Weapon strike range might compensate, but that's not a common stat either.

    My run through Phrecia 2 made me really miss Siones and you'll probably feel it even more without giant EH aoe. Still, some interesting ideas. Not being able to utilize bleed always irked me. My guess is that some streamer will make a build video and it will get Katabasised.

    Now, to ponder whether Xevy is making a good faith argument that despite the evidence on this very page that I'm still enthusiastic about build theorycrafting, the game itself has changed deleteriously due to things like T17 affixes and PoE2. :emoji_thinking:

    Path of Exile

    I agree. After they nerfed corpse skills and left corrupting fever/cry to rot, I was having trouble finding a dirt cheap league starter. Which means this will be nerfed next league. I come back to these builds months later, when the reasons for decisions have long left my brain. In this...

    This is where I wound up. I'm not a fan of the phys max hit, I think this event needed more than just 65/65 block. https://pobb.in/lo3OfEpK9wX6 Were you really cycling through 3 warcries? I'm not sure I see the point of Intimidating Cry. Why didn't you put Hits Can't Be Evaded on both weapons?

    I tried abstracting so I could compare different weapons. Paradoxica, for example, is 2(double damage) * 1.56(attack speed) * 1.15(pen) * 6.5/5 = ~4.8. RWoE would be 1.375(MH attack speed averaged) * 1.35(base attack speed) * 13.2/5(OH crit averaged) * 1.1(DW attack speed) = ~5.4. A claw with...

    Red maps were rough. You certainly can't glass cannon a Wildspeaker on a few chaos of gear through that. Oddly enough, it was Beyond that killed me the most, it was really hard to keep them off idols. But, then again, the idols were doing almost nothing tangible. Maybe the strat next time is...

    Where/when do you guys decide it's time to cut and run on a feature? As in, it's not done right, but it works and you definitely don't have time to do it right. I hacked together some ugly after_script so that our pipelines would be less gay. This was unprompted, no planning, and well...

    I mostly fixed my macro. The lone problem ended up being that send the keystroke meant whatever other keys you had depressed, like shift for dumping, is now considered released and repressed, ruining what it was held down for. Since this doesn't queue, same problem?

    I just resort grepping the entire sandbox. Good ol grep and find. I'm not sure what it would take to get over my personal hurdles. I know at the very least my employer would have to pay for it.

    Considering the corruption and incestuousness of the AI industry, a pessimistic take might be that your employer is being financially incentivized to do this in order to artificially inflate AI demand and usage.

    What do you in the case of external dependencies that are resolved at runtime? I can't get my IDE to resolve those, so forever they remain red squiggles. In my original example, many of the code paths that I ended up touching were referencing external dependencies. How do you identify the...

    I still code, not as much as I'd like, too much managerial shit. But just this week I refactored a python function that was throwing multiple linter errors for complexity. You know, too many lines of code, too many branches, too many parameters, etc. Usually I ignore those but in this case I...

    Part of my job requires working with the entirety of the Android repo. Google has been moving more of their code to Kotlin, which if understand correctly is Java with aids.

    I know he's talking to a D2 streamer, but when was the last you heard Chris talk about playing PoE? It would be really interesting to have him explain why he digs up specific patches of Diablo 2(not LoD) instead of playing the game he created. But, I'm guessing this topic will never be...

    I'm a bit surprised that they're doing this. Events like this are usually to cover for schedule slippage and they seem to be doing ok in that regard(strictly on hitting dates, not quality of what's delivered).

    Me too, that's why was asking. I actually found that VSCode's remote extension supports WSL very similarly to how it does ssh, so I'm using that. Got my snappy ctrl e and ctrl shift f back.

    Good luck. Refactoring seems on the more reasonable side of measuring someone's aptitude than the typical tests. To some degree, it's why I'm complacent in my job and fear having to look for a new one. I did a path eliding question in perl, didn't finish, yet somehow got hired...
