Posted November 28, 2016 I've built my first serious x99 computer rig. Learned another 3 Web development languages. Written a list to minimalize my wardrobe because in my opinion fashion complicates my life. Watch documentaries on nearly a daily basis and generally prefer to never waste time unless I'm digesting new information. All this for the past 4yrs now.

Posted November 28, 2016 I've solved a Rubik's cube in 10.28 seconds (still not sub-10 yet, grr...). Other than that I don't really know what counts as "geeky" and what doesn't. "Do as I say, not as I do." -Because you actually care if it makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 28, 2016 well.. i've made an online version of "colonists of catan" with no UI what so ever, with all the game actions happening trough IRC, i guess that's pretty geeky beyond that, it's probably gonna be calculating a pythagorean equasion off the top of my head ending up accurate to like... 3 or 4 digits . for clarification: no piece of paper to write things down, just take the input numbers, brainmath, and output. EDIT: i know someone's gonna ask, so i'm gonna spoiler in how i ended up doing that: Spoiler first off, no it wasnt fast, i did it because someone told me doing math helps you sleep basicly, you can do addition in the bwainz pretty easily, multiplication isnt too bad either, squares are just a multiplication, it's the square root that's the issue, for that i used a combination of two things: - approximation trough doing square (for example if the result would be 10.5, you'd square 10 -> too small, try 11 -> too large, so you know it's somewhere in between, and based on the result of tthe squares you can estimate where between the base number your result will be) - i have a *REALLY* visual brain, and i've taught myself how to pretty accurately "simulate" these things, and basicly just back and forth-ed results between these two methods. at some point i had this 5 or 6 digit number in my head, and i realised the issue with this way of falling asleep: if you succeed before you fall asleep you really want to know if that result was right, so i got up, found a calculator, ran the numbers, and i found that my madness was 1 off on the 4th digit.

Posted November 28, 2016 I've done a lot of geek stuff in my days but one of the most recent was creating a game for my daughter because there were no good games on Steam for her, now I'm making an MMORPG for my family and friends to play because of how much fun game development is. -KuJoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
