    @Evil Multifarious how far are you into SW:Jedi Fallen Order? I feel the story does get better as it goes. Also the later fights are so good.

    Still early, just beat the first campaign mission on
    Kashyyk

    Just went back to explore Dathomir

    I'm on Jedi Master, still trying to figure out parry timings for monsters. They seem to want you to parry really early, much more than e.g. Sekiro. Does not feel reliable yet. Even the basic stormtroopers are kind of annoying to parry so far.

    Having to manually parry blasters to deflect them back at the attacker is really fun, though.

    Sad nerdy thing I learned this weekend:

    The First Order TIE interceptor that FFG released this weekend (and based on Star Wars: Resistance)...

    swz62_ship_art.png

    ... is not the same TIE Interceptor that Kylo Ren flew in Episode 9.

    TIEwhisper-TROS.png


    This seems like something minor that the powers that be for LucasFilm could've coordinated?

    And naturally both of those are different than the TIE Silencer Kylo Ren flew in Episode 8...

    swx68_preview3.jpg

    I don't envy the lady in charge of Lucasfilm right now. But I really, REALLY hope they get their own version of Kevin Feige... Or maybe Kevin Feige.

    The funny thing about writing JavaScript is that it's so fluid and has so many frameworks and syntax tricks you can exploit (and things that only got added in later versions) that writing-style in JavaScript is absurdly variable. Like you look at something from eight years ago that's made of traditional-style closures and jQuery and then you look at some modern ES6+ React components and they might as well be entirely different languages (even if you're explicitly excluding the JSX).

    Also I get the strong sense that there is a culture among JS devs where they want to style on everyone else by having the weirdest, most compact syntax that exploits the most strange loopholes in JavaSript just to demonstrate they know how to pull it apart or to save themselves a couple lines of code, and since JavaScript is mostly disposable and we'll all be on to a new framework in two years no one ever really cares about readability or maintainability.

    Like in JavaScript using unintuitive implicit type coercion and exploiting the way JS handles boolean evalution isn't just allowed by best practice, it's a way of life.

    So, dumb math question because I haven't done real math in forever and I'm getting confused. Seriously, don't look in the spoilers, it will reveal how dumb I am.

    I think I'm being really dumb here, looks like its percentage of the population, not actually number of rabbits, so my brain was going in the wrong direction entirely.
    Veritasium released a video talking about a bunch of stuff, but I'm stuff at 1:45 because he shows the equation

    Xn+1=rXn(5-Xn

    and if you put it in a graphing calculator, you indeed get an inverse parabola. But the whole point is that its supposed to be a population chart with a population limit of 5 (his formula had 1 for the limit, but that involves a lot decimals, using 5 gave me more integers to work with). And when I plug in Xn=0=1, Xn=1=2, Xn=2=3, I did indeed get an inverse parabola. But my understanding was that X is population, not year, so it would be Xn=0=1, Xn=1=8, Xn=2= -48...

    Is there something dumb I'm missing here?

    Edit: I guess what initially gave me pause is that given a limit, your population would plateau like a log, not sink back to 0 like a parabola, right?

    Okay. Your comments make sense to me.
    Dathomir is my favorite planet in a lot of ways. Kashykk was okay.

    I think also it is good to think of this being like a metroidvania with very different combat.

    Hey @credeiki , what's a standard team comp in League these days? One jungler, two carries, two support?

    Or let's assume I can't teach people who have played less than 5 hours of league to jungle, is jungling necessary?

    The best part is trying to do something that was trivially easy in jQuery and now is almost impossible and requires all sorts of weird hacky shit because React fundamentally doesn't work that way.

    And then explaining to your boss that yes, while our legacy site easily manages this thing you want me to do in a single line of code, I'm going to need to make feature-sized PRs to two different open sources packages just to be able to get our new site to do it.

    @SniperGuy you’re thinking of it like dota but that’s not quite the way people talk about league meta

    In league you have one toplaner, one jungler, one midlander, and then two people botlane, one called adc/bot and one called support.
    This is always true (in someone’s first 10 hours of play they may see duo toplanes and no jg but this will evaporate as soon as people have any idea how to play the game); the positions are mandatory and coded into draft pick/ranked.

    ‘Carry’ is a nebulous term. Everyone farms except for the support. The support starts with a gold generation item that gives them income. The jungler only farms the jungle and should not farm lanes (after lane phase is over, the jungler might split push and farm lanes though). You can play as mage supports that do more damage than the rest of the team and build full damage, so does that make you a carry? In general, the term ‘carrying’ refers to someone doing well and having an impact on the game rather than to the act of funneling farm into someone.
