Is the coast right?

Obligatory Dijkstra: Testing shows the presence, not the absence of bugs.

Getting affirmation of no regressions could take forever, but if you haven't heard from testers for a while they probably haven't found anything.

There was a time when user agents didn't download all content automatically.
If that's still an option it would fix this issue for all sites.

Simultaneous reveal of the moves makes Diplomacy what it is. It's a completely different game if you definitely know what other players are doing. That said, I entertain the possibility of allowing this for unranked games; they need not be taken so seriously. 8-) I believe that arranging live stream...

The new GitHub ChatGPT Copilot feature is really neat, I just typed if( !is_null($Game->sandboxCreatedByUserID) And it actually generated this as a suggestion: if( !is_null($Game->sandboxCreatedByUserID) && $Game->sandboxCreatedByUserID != $User->id && !$User->type['Moderator'] ) { libHTML::notice(...

there's a good argument for making the 31st of April vegan pi day

There are only 30 days in April.

The Internet connects billions, so that you can't turn right or left without offending someone, because the readers can take offence at anything.

Negotiating in a game that gets dragged for weeks would be too much; I don't want to commit so much time to it. What happens on the board is all that matters anyway.

The new RR calcs are a lot more complex because they put turns into different buckets, and there may still be a bug or two lurking there, but it's O(1) instead of O(N).

Couldn't you just

Code: Select all

newRR = 99% * oldRR + 1% * current_turn

?

It is the player who takes over whose GR is used to calculate the changes at the end of the game, and the player who drops avoids the hit (or increase - but let’s be real, the vast majority of drops happen in bad positions) to GR. It is unfair as it artificially inflates some folks’ GR and deflates...

It looks like my 100/101 would be high enough for the list? Hi learnedSloth, You were added on the list for the October 11 report, but your GB GR fell below 101 for the report on October 18, so you haven't been on since. Sorry. There's always another game... Doug 8-) I see that now. Appending the l...

I just realised that someone may find himself in the aforementioned situation that he is afraid to come to the light. I don't want to leave you to despair; people often find themselves in situations that are impossible - for them: THE word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Arise, and go ...

This discussion reminds me of There is enough light for those who only desire to see, and enough obscurity for those who have a contrary disposition. The purpose of this setup is qualification: 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be r...

Το someone who said the Bible refers to days for the creation: 1. The idea of millions of years was inconceivable for the people of the time, so it was necessary to be given in terms they could understand. Millions of years were needed to accommodate atheistic origin myths. They have become popular...

I don't see how you arrived at that. The site says that if the world is made through natural processes, it's different from God making it. That's quite different from saying that God can't work through nature or natural processes, but I still can't figure whence you read so, nor can I imagine that ...

I don't think Christians have anything to fear about evolution http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/FAQ43.html Going through some of these and it's kind of weird. 1. They're claiming evolution would require miracles in the same line they're saying evolution doesn't require miracles. Which is i...

Oh, I don't know, maybe point out that the referenced real-world pet doesn't actually have a flaming tail, so the risk of fire damage is miniscule? I think that you understand the point perfectly well, though. I don't want to give much thought to this hypothetical scenario, but I think that I would...
