@STANN_co Can even hit that square in the first place

@STANN_co Well it depends on how many threatenable pieces there are. The best option would be to only do this for squares that present a threat, i.e in regular chess where the king is, but here it might be squares around the king for AoE attacks and then going from those to what pieces ..

trying to figure out how i could detect stuff like "pins" in code, for my special chess game with extra pieces. Not sure yet, it's a bit of a conundrum

@STANN_co If you only have diagonal/cardinal moves, simply raycasting from the king is enough! A general solution requires a full simulation of possible moves though! Should be possible to do in a backwards reaching manner though while the player is waiting on animations to finish and such

@STANN_co i.e you need some way of detecting which moves this frees up, this should be similar to a raycast but depends entirely on what moves are possible in your game

@eibos3d Watercooling?

Hot 2 Cold was the joke. We're making it real. 🧊 We brought the heat. Now we're going cold. April 14 — make a guess

@weibchendinge @ItIsHoeMath And even if we did measure genetic similarity, doing so without context is stupid. If we knock out an essential gene in E. coli and compare it to a wt the difference between ”cannot live" and "can live" is pretty fucking large considering theres practically no genetic difference

@weibchendinge @ItIsHoeMath Further, such dimensionality reduction techniques fundamentally cannot be used to make estimates about genetic similarity, they are not measures of similarity, they are visualisations of what genes cluster together when a high dimensional embedding space is projected downwards.

The average person is so stupid that they will say "haha you have a cheap car, that means you are creepy and dangerous" and then turn right around and say "this obviously different species from the other side of the planet that actually rolls around in shit all day should move in next door to me in unlimited numbers because we are all the same"

@flowVSgravity @RifleCCXXIII @daloore @davepl1968 They are not limited to uppercase anymore, it is just passwords created before were all converted to uppercase meaning to now produce an identical hash users must manually use the all uppercase password

@RifleCCXXIII @daloore @davepl1968 There is virtually no situation this ends up acceptable. They either are incompetent now or they have been incompetent and try to get better. Limiting alphanumeric passwords of a financial system to uppercase is bonkers - no matter why

The only possibility is that they stored the hash of the upcased password. So: s = hash(toupper(password)) If they had stored the plaintext password, they wouldn't be in this situation. But why don't they simply do the same thing - upcase whatever you enter, hash, and check? It would make passwords case insensitive, just as they describe.

@The_HRforges @chhopsky @vxunderground Well, to be fair, math isn’t real

@chhopsky @vxunderground This reminds me of when people freak out when a site that says it doesn't store your CC info in plain text immediately knows whether your card is visa or mastercard. Like just because you don't understand how doesn't mean it's not possible.

1. This isn't fake. 2. Credentials are stored as hashes. It should be literally, with no exaggeration, impossible for a vendor to know your credentials while uppercase UNLESS they weren't storing passwords as hashes. What the fuck is HSBC India doing?

@dangitman50 @Lucas_Politics @ryankatzrosene Notice how you didn’t adress the actual point. Wine grows at 10C; a map from the 1500s is not at all a reliable source of information unless you also believe the earth is flat (in that case see "pretty fucking stupid") and there could have been a river there

My opposite conclusion is because I know history. We've had warmer times in history, to the point where Scottish wine was barred from France because it was overtaking French wine business. A fishing village was recent dug up in Israel from 2500BC that was 2 miles inland. A map from the 1500s shows the coastline of Antarctica without ice. The evidence is there if you bother to look.

Just your regular reminder that climate skeptics see dead people

@dangitman50 @Lucas_Politics @ryankatzrosene Of course it does. However you would have to be pretty fucking stupid to believe the opposite conclusion (i.e climate change isn’t real) is less likely to be pushed

@JuJulienDev @Lucas_Politics @ryankatzrosene Government paying the paychecks for "scientists" have a certain pull with those "scientists" such that the words "you'll find what we want or we'll pull your funding" comes around in pretty much every field, ESPECIALLY climate "science."

@dangitman50 @Lucas_Politics @ryankatzrosene How does "big oil and every single corporate entity on earth are killing the planet" positively affect a scientists paycheck lol

@Lucas_Politics @ryankatzrosene The problem comes from CREDIBILITY. When scientists' conclusions DIRECTLY affect their paychecks, their conclusions CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

@DireDudez @gleb_alexandrov Probably because the waves are interfering constructively

@gleb_alexandrov i think the water at the edges is moving WAY to much for to long, this is like a wave pool of constant motion

Now, that's a generational fluid sim. I'm speechless.

constant generics are so cool

@Josh95523782 @namiwifer @TeoremaPark @Liamjsm A lot of plants can also grow for a while in the dark so what now

@namiwifer @TeoremaPark @Liamjsm I’ll concede that you do need minimal observation (wait, but fungi grows in darkness? etc.), but I wouldn’t go so far as to call this kind of thing midwittery. It’s more like a slight misunderstanding of first order principles.

Ah yes let me loop over all data when I need a subset of it, but lets do it branchless. I am very intelligent
