Ender of Games

If you wanted an open-source streaming-economy RTS, I’d very quickly recommend Zero-K.

I hadn’t even heard of BAR before, so I got something to try in the next few days.

That producer didn’t throw Kojima out, everyone loved working with him. The company that wanted to make money by shoveling out small bits of shit instead of making good games didn’t want to pay Kojima.

More specifically, can you explain the joke? Why am I not worrying (but secretly worrying) about this guy with DNA tests almost the exact same every time?

The rules are universal, only the mnemonics used to remember the rules are different

The rules and the acronyms describe different things. If you have to make more rules to say M and D are the same, and that you go left to right when you do them, then the basic rules you followed were flawed. The universal conventions of mathematics don’t need these acronyms confusing people.

high school Maths textbooks

I haven’t seen anything since early elementary school, not middle school, and certainly not high school. Regardless, if a textbook has it, it doesn’t make it right at all. If the acronyms are useless to learn, having them in a textbook doesn’t validate them.

and order of operations worksheet generators

…that’s one of the two examples you used? Did you think about that before you typed it out?

It’s always 2. #MathsIsNeverAmbiguous

IT IS AMBIGUOUS IN THIS POST AND ALL EXAMPLES I HAVE SHOWN. That is the problem at hand.

There is no real problem solving in trying to decipher poorly written shit. It’s the equivalent if English classes took time out to give students worksheets with “foder” written on them, and expecting students to find out if the writer meant “folder” or “fodder”- no sentence context, just following a list of “rules”. It is not difficult to write mathematical expressions with clear context to how numbers relate, even with the lazy shortcuts and shorthand that mathematicians love.

If you have both multiplication and division then you do them left to right. PEMDAS doesn’t mean multiplication first, nor does BEDMAS mean division first. It’s PE(MD)(AS) and BE(DM)(AS) where the bracketed parts are done left to right.

You are adding more rules to protect a convention that doesn’t work and doesn’t mention them to begin with. If all that matters is higher orders first, then why bother having an acronym? Just say “Brackets, then higher orders”. Bam. Solved it with less words than any of the acronyms.

Left associativity means it always operates on the following term. i.e. terms are associated with the sign on their left.

As someone who studied mathematics, computer science, and engineering in university, I certainly don’t you to tell me how to do bare bones arithmetic. I know operators apply to the numbers to their right. Everyone does. You jumped right on by the point.

With 2/2*2, you don’t know if it is 2*2/2, or 2/(2*2). When you are dividing by numbers, you put them all in the denominator. If I had to put it in a line, I would at least do 2/(2)*2, to show what is in the denominator. If it is ambiguous, you have done it incorrectly.

By the rule of left associativity.

BY CONVENTION, as I said. You don’t have to repeat what I said a second time.

No it doesn’t. How on Earth did you manage to get -2?

wow. geez. I wonder.

If you can’t follow the steps guided for such a simple example, maybe we just shouldn’t have this conversation. It’s not like you could have tried in your head different orders to combine 3 numbers.

Of course it is with age. No mammals are born lactose intolerant. We drink milk as infants.

Almost universally, all adult mammals become lactose intolerant. We humans are lucky for those of us who tolerant.

Yes, the fundamentals the same, higher orders come first. BUT…

-Multiplication comes before division in some forms, like PEMDAS. In the example I use, this changes the answer.

-When you apply an operation, you should specify what it is operating on. In all of these acronyms, addition comes before subtraction, but with a different example:

2 - 2 + 2

The minus sign only applies to the middle term, by convention. It is the equivalent of “adding negative two”. You can quickly see that this expression is equal to 2.

But if you use one of these acronyms, you end with this expression evaluating to -2. I would say it is almost universally accepted that 2 is the correct answer, and -2 is incorrect. Basically, all these acronyms end up being useless waste of time.

I don’t know if I conveyed this the first time, but, as a lover of pure mathematics, this is something that does not have application in life or in study. It’s an utterly useless waste of time. There is never a case where someone give you numbers like this, where it is not clear what order the numbers should be applied in.

You know, magic that makes liquids isn’t rare in different campaigns… like endless water supplies, etc.

So I think summoning a bottle of alcoholic lemonade would be a perfectly fair effect of the spell.

Even your “BODMAS” isn’t universal, lots of people learn “PEMDAS” or “BEDMAS”

At any level of mathematics after elementary school, you never see terrible expressions like this. Well, except for facebook and twitter

Take for example: 2/2*2 It is 0.5 or 2 depending on order. But if I were anything after high school (I was more complacent in high school, I guess) if someone gave me an arbitrarily solved equation or expression like this, I would be livid and raise hell at them for trying to do that.

The part directly above the species is the genus. Family comes after that, and is Cannabaceae in this case.

wtf is KAPWING and why is that text so much bigger than the meme?

This is actually a second Super Mario 64 Maker. Kaze Emanuar made one a few years back.

The SM64 hacking scene is so broken for hardware that I do all of it on PC recompiles now. I’ll have to see if this is any good if I can work it on PC.

Is that not the joke? The cat ate the bird’s head?

She doesn’t really look all that bothered to run.

Like she’s playing with the cookie monster like a pet.

The conspiracy is growing.

But there was a level entry form. So he entered it, but then disqualified it? Or someone else entered it on his behalf?

Ahoyo hosted, and lots of creators were invited to submit. When Ahoyo discovered TASing tools for WiiU, TTH was his way of showing it off. With a tendon issue, they couldn’t make and play a hard kaizo level anymore. So, yes, Ahoyo entered TTH themselves, then made sure it was disqualified. The point was for people to see the playthrough and accuse it of being a TAS, which would be the reveal, as per Ahoyo’s message. The viewing of the levels with the judges was live streamed, so the audience was supposed to see the levels and call it out, too.

Then no one noticed, and the TAS tools seemed to have died out. <strikethrough is broken for me for some reason, just assume some nonsense here>

Edit: My bad, I heard talk of TASBot trying to get their jank tools to work for WiiU, I didn’t realize this but someone has already cleared TTH with TAS. Just those streamers going for last 7 days of RTA clear attempts.
