slate drift

carmine frigate
#

US is allright.. i have no idea what a midterm is for tho

slate drift
#

Senator house I guess, but still it's weird

carmine frigate
#

or why some1 would get margin called for it

proud jay
#

stocks are influenced by politics

soft night
#

like elon stocks?

proud jay
#

generally when repbulicans come out on top some stocks go up

#

because they are corrupt af and do everything for companies and their fat profits

carmine frigate
#

@snow pawn mayB dont take stock advice from ur Qanon buddies πŸ˜„

proud jay
#

I'm just here in the basement of this pizza store with some kids watching the stock market go up and down

#

technical analysis based on midterms?

carmine frigate
#

I bought nintendo when i was 15 cuz i liked mario kart... its hella up

proud jay
#

who is buying stocks at 15 lol

#

so are you a multi millionaire

slate drift
#

That red is what keeps me away from getting into that realm

proud jay
#

why are you not filthy rich if it works 70% of the time

carmine frigate
#

cuz the 1% makes the 30% happen offc

#

but only 30% loss right?

proud jay
#

you sound like you belong on r/superstonk tbh

carmine frigate
#

he just came from there is my guess

soft night
#

some could just launch firesale

carmine frigate
#

i had stocks for many years and never been margin called πŸ˜„

proud jay
#

step 1: don't trade on marging

#

step 2: don't trade options

foggy path
#

19k is more money than most people have

#

:p

#

it's such a ridiculous idea that people are like "ha ha yeah I casually lost 19k on a trade"

carmine frigate
#

i lost 1000$ on first hand in a poker tourney once πŸ™‚

carmine frigate
#

pre flop all in

#

but then mid terms came and i lost it all

proud jay
#

I would never risk 19k lol

#

that's like a year of savings or more down the drain

#

I guess it's easy if you make 700k a year as junior web developer in america πŸ₯²

foggy path
#

lol

proud jay
#

unfortunately rent is 60k per week

carmine frigate
#

may we ask what you bet it on?

proud jay
#

hookers

foggy path
#

step 1: low cost index funds
step 2: ???
step 3: profit

#

lol

proud jay
#

that's what I did

#

and then there was this corona thing

#

and then it recovered

#

and then there was this war thing

#

I'm still down like 4%

foggy path
#

I actually increased the amount I'm investing into my fund portfolio in the past years

proud jay
#

which is better than a lot of people though lol

foggy path
#

Help take advantage of the drop in value :P

proud jay
#

need that phat downpayment money

foggy path
#

Ah

carmine frigate
#

it sucks when you run out of $$ when you get too the roof part

#

here homeless is call : roofless

foggy path
#

I finally realized my cryptocurrency profits a few weeks ago, fun times with huge tax bills lol

carmine frigate
#

so it doesnt matter if you have a home w/o a roof its still the same as homeless

foggy path
#

I sold them a long time ago but I had sat them as fiat in the exchange in case I wanted to rebuy... but it go to a point that I don't think I will rebuy, so better to take the tax hit than wait for the exchange to get hacked :p

carmine frigate
#

i like to gameble sometimes... but only with money im willing to lose

#

and when it takes too long too lose it i try super hard to get it too 0

#

its weird

#

but than im done with gambling again for a few years so its allright

foggy path
#

I just play the lottery with numbers that combine to form 1337

#

lol

carmine frigate
#

ahh i never do lottery

#

only poker .. or active gambling

foggy path
#

I might do it a couple times a year so not very often

proud jay
#

I don't gamble

#

I don't like losing

foggy path
#

last time I gambled was while playing Yakuza Kiwami 2 and I had to cheat to win

carmine frigate
#

i did some stock options and futures but its just too time consuming

foggy path
#

Yeah that's why I don't do those... just stick with funds

carmine frigate
#

i have a bucket of silver.. thats pretty cool

foggy path
#

I actually do own some stock for a holdings company based on the local telco that used to be here

proud jay
foggy path
#

Back in the day you had to buy a share in the telco if you wanted a phone number, and when I was born my grandparents gifted me a telco share

proud jay
#

and more importantly, can you burn the bucket

foggy path
#

Eventually the company was merged into something else and through some shenanigans the shares became shares in this holding company thing and now I own shares on that lol

carmine frigate
foggy path
#

this was in the 80s mind you

carmine frigate
#

well it has a % silver

proud jay
#

you can invest in me by buying ACKB

#

they're a holding that has 20% of our company

#

I get nothing of it 😭

carmine frigate
#

not giving you any sounds like a smart thing too do, ill lok into it

foggy path
#

I own around 10% of the company I work at... not worth much unless the company gets acquired which so far has not happened lol

proud jay
#

or if someone else wants to buy your shares

#

are you like founder or like early employee

#

or just one of the benefits

foggy path
#

Early employee would probably be most descriptive although I'm considered to be a part of the founder team for some reason

carmine frigate
#

i have a bucket of silver coins

foggy path
#

I don't even know how I would go about selling them even if I wanted to lol

carmine frigate
#

take me too ur leader

#

ill grab my bucket

proud jay
#

like don't you have proof that you own 10%

#

you sell that

#

probably through some lawyer guy

#

notary more probably

#

just give them to me, I'll take care of it πŸ‘€

carmine frigate
#

i also have some 50 gulden coins somewhere

#

currency of the future

foggy path
#

I have a chocolate coin

carmine frigate
#

it not near future

#

but you can buy my hand drawn bills with silver coins so its 1 way interchangable

proud jay
#

why is it called gulden if it's silver

#

such a fucking scam

carmine frigate
#

the new coins were nikkel or something

#

those are not worth much atm

proud jay
#

double scammed

carmine frigate
#

ill keep my bucket of silver coins i think.. its super fun too have

#

its hidden like a pirate treasure

#

also its super heavy so its more easy to use bank monies

#

i totally recommend gettin ur own bucket of silver... never in my life i thought .... damn i wish i didnt have that

proud jay
#

in contrast to the piano

carmine frigate
#

yea glad that thing is gone

fleet tangle
#

What about a bucket of gold?

carmine frigate
#

hmm i dont know.. i dont have 1

#

think i own verry little gold.. not a big fan of jewel type stuff

#

i had a teacher at school that lost his ringfinger when he jumped over something and his ring got stuck

#

seen a girl on a bike get her earring stuck in a treebranch

#

thats stuff is just pure horror .. not for me too dangerous

fleet tangle
#

I mean more about its ability to hold value.

carmine frigate
#

i didnt study metallurgy or economics

fleet tangle
#

You don't need to know about metallurgy.

carmine frigate
#

gold can be created.. it just takes massive amounts of energy

#

at some point cold fusion might happen or it might take less

fleet tangle
#

The same goes for silver.

carmine frigate
#

yes.. but than i still have my bucket πŸ˜„

#

also the coins hold collector value

#

but i dunno much about that, im not a coin collector

is epic ignoring my bug reports or do they take longer than usual to respond with an case id?

primal summit

celest musk

well... it's all working as programmed tho πŸ˜„

even if it is a bug

Death Stranding

timber viper
#

it creates catmull rom spline on top of regular A* path to make it curvy

thin aspen
#

There was a GDC talk about how they did path finding for enemy AI because of the terrain and restraints

timber viper
#

and path following component gets direction from spline while following its regular a* path

#

and it looks more natural

thin aspen
#

There’s another aspect where the npc gauges risk vs reward or something like that since they too can lose footing

celest musk

"more natural"

i walk like an bad programmed NPC then, shortest possible route πŸ˜„

That framerate tho

regal pecan

At 0% resolution scale

quasi mantle
regal pecan
#

8:32 to 10:46 it's at DLSS 0% resolution scale, whatever that means
Curiously it hits 120 at the intro but pitfalls to sub-20 at the character scene

#

makes me wonder what's eating up the render budget

quasi mantle
regal pecan
#

It zooms in close on the character at the end, hits 60 fps. Definitely the environment. But at 384x216 (sic) I can't imagine it's work on the GPU that's slow.

#

Maybe a voxel-based GI solution?

quasi mantle
#

Probably ray tracing? I don't know the details on Unity side, but it's likely less sophisticated than Lumen

regal pecan
#

Ray tracing would scale with pixel count, unless the ray depth is unreasonably deep.

regal pecan
celest musk
#

yea you are right, it's probably less geometry to raytrace against? 🀷

#

it's kind of weird how they praise it in the comments

#

it looks awesome without a doubt, but doesn't help that it doesn't even run reasonable on high end systems

Today's nonsense news in Finland: A game programmer had "accidentally" reported his income as 133 700 000 eur

As if this wasn't already the reality in the US with their insane credit score system lol

#

It works the same way as everything else in the US seems to work: To make sure the poor stay poor

#

:P

#

Yeah you need to spend on credit cards, you can't be too much in debt, but you also shouldn't pay off your credit card debt in full

#

the more you learn about it the more obvious it seems like a scheme concocted to ensure the financial system keepers can get as much money off you as possible

#

The only real "score" that is tracked here is whether you've defaulted on your bills or not

#

If you don't pay your bills, you can get a flag in your financial records about it... but for it to get to that point you have to have let it intentionally happen because they're required to send you so many notifications about it and I believe it may even require some level of court involvement in some cases

#

Yeah something like that, I don't know the specifics of who keeps the data about it

#

Yeah, I know it's mostly used with things like loan applications, doesn't really affect much else

#

You might even get a loan despite it, but most likely with higher collateral or interest rate

#

Meanwhile in the US you might not be able to get a cellphone plan with bad credit

#

????

#

I've heard stories to the opposite. Obviously it's one of those things that probably varies quite a lot

Depends on who you try to get service with

Uhh yeah if she's making claims that beautiful has something to do with be you to full I don't think she is making any claims that have any basis on reality alex

#

that has nothing to do with linguistics

#

intentional misunderstanding of linguistics at best

#

Huh?

#

the statement "the most linguistic language" makes no sense

#

linguistics is the study of language, you can't have "the most linguistic language"

#

#

I don't know if you're using that term correctly which might be the reason I'm so confused

But [id Software and Zenimax] rejected this on Marty’s concern that if he admitted fault publicly, that would negatively affect his reputation.
Reminds me of all the C-level executives that utterly trash their company and resign with benefits rather than getting fired.

i recall it wasnt optional

no.. everything looks correct skelewhy

then one of these conditions are failing
if (IsFlowNetMode(NetMode) && NotifyTag.IsValid() && HasBegunPlay())

or you didnt add the gameplay which is i believe its not the issue

#

I dont use this feature btw

#

I use gameplaymessages on flow

#

same thing in the end, just seperated from flow

terse wasp
#

Pray tell

#

Is that the lyra stuff

timber viper
#

yeah

#

i cant have flow component on every actor πŸ˜„

#

so i needed an independent system

terse wasp
#

Yeah, I don't plan on that.

#

I just wanted to see how to get it up and going. Wasn't going to actually use it like this most likely.

timber viper
#

for me there is only two reasons its interesting
1- badass editor utils (debugging, diffing, graphs, guids, saving/loading)
2- its too easy to create node inputs/outputs and latent stuff it provides out of the box

#

and node based system encapsulates behaviors into FlowNode classes etc etc

terse wasp
#

I admit - I do like the idea of just slappin' a new mission together in something like this. Pretty organized in that sense.

#

So I need to work out the communication between the two.

timber viper
#

I think if I would using both my current system (that is identical to what you explained in #cpp) I would have a single flow node that runs given UMapMission and UMapMission would be communicating with flownode to execute output pins with success, failure etc

#

so flowgraph would be just execution flow

terse wasp
#

Yeah, pretty much what I was lookin' at using it for.

#

A visual layer for the sequence of objectives more or less

timber viper
#

but if you watched the video on readme, its intended use case is actually creating missions in the graph

#

but for bigger scope ofc

terse wasp
#

I figure, good enough for Witcher, good enough for me

terse wasp
#

@timber viper So yeah - I just can't get this NotifyActor node to work.

timber viper
#

I have no idea at this point sadly, you gotta debug that function

#

I never used them too so not aware of edge cases

terse wasp
#

Well I did find out the graph was wrong a bit

#

When doing Actor -> Flow, use "OnNotifyFromActor" node

timber viper
#

so docs was wrong?

terse wasp
#

Nah - I misread that part

#

@timber viper You're 100% right. NotifyTags is not optional

#

Docs are wrong

timber viper
#

i guess mothdoctor was ambigious there πŸ˜„

#

like "you can set it to null but it wont work, but you can set it to null so its optional" πŸ˜‚

terse wasp
#

As long as I have some kind of tag there, it executes

#

@timber viper Last ping, I swear. But here it is. The NotifyTags container won't be valid if it doesn't have any tags I believe. And it won't add any tags to the ValidatedTags array because there are no tags to add. And it won't broadcast the event because πŸ₯ the ValidatedTags array's count is not > 0

timber viper

Last ping, I swear.

In the end, they're all just instructions.

#

The fact that python follows those instructions really, really badly is its own fault.

timber viper

Isnt python mostly relying on natively written libraries anyway

be it matplotlib or numpy etc

it more like acts like a function invoker and an environment to use different libs

I guess they aren't the slow parts...

timber viper

i remember reading a StackOverflow post about not using for loop

quasi mantle

For me it was hundreds of anime emoji at my disposal, ready to be used elsewhere

#

Though that being said, Nitro saves a lot more for a couple of boost

#

Subbing couple of boosts on themselves costs as much as a Nitro sub

#

And whaling for Level 3 Boost ($70/mo) costs as much as subscribing Slack for 8 user per month (with monthly billing)

#

It could give advantage for internal team server as everyone gets the perk, and assuming majority of employees would make a new account each just to join the internal server

#

From my testing with illicit BetterDiscord plugins, private server names do become visible, but threads were not (thankfully), and isolated role members are safe from high level doxxing stage

Okay, Indonesian firearm law. Civilians may possess firearms, however it must be semi-auto or manual action, it can't be full-auto. Also larger business owners may possess a firearm for self defense

#

Still, average joe joko can't own firearms as easily as one would in the US (or maybe Canada)

#

Also considering proper firearms are expensive, those who legally had one would own something at huge value at stake - their pre-meditated death can means collapse to their business

Also I think the largest allowed caliber is either .45, or 9mm

But I know anything more powerful than that is a no-no

Yup. 10min in and its technically out of the backlog and can be put in the "played it" pile

sometimes I lol at ppl in the parking lot who dont know how to park. Theres a guy trying to get his trailer back to the door, but he's blocking the whole lane, jackknifed, and it looks like they're dropping the trailer still half in the lane
