Java programmer who loves everything tech!

@DaisyGames3 Exactly this! I can gain an innate understanding of how to approach certain programming problems / structures, but ask me to identify what it's called (if anything) or to relate it to other theoretical concepts and that's where I fall apart.

@ShakeDrizzle He got hacked and it's actually the funniest thing ever.

@ericwastl Also, some of these findings I came to the same conclusion of, but I didn't make it as far as this person! Props to them.

@ericwastl I loved the Synacor Challenge! It really brought out skills I don't use often. I haven't found anything else like it besides certain AOC puzzles, unfortunately.

@MinecraftWikiEN It’s also interesting to me that the graph shows a tick up in occurrences at around 107 and higher. Based on the code, the chances should be just as equal at 107 and higher as below, since it is completely uniform. I guess this must be due to the higher density of netherrack?

@MinecraftWikiEN Specifically, while the code of 20w06a defining the distributions is quite different from the code of today, it appears clear (to me) that the triangle distribution from y=8 to y=24 and uniform distribution from y=8 to y=119 are the same.

@mysticatyay @Legundo If on IntelliJ, generally that means you need to go File > Invalidate Cache and restart and then if that doesn't work, try refreshing Gradle in the sidebar (including a gradle clean command if nothing else works)

@gwidion @ericwastl Thanks for the offer! I might try to do them in Python after I get a working solution in Java/Kotlin. We'll see. I like to go for leaderboard, so it's important I know the language I'm using very well. :)

[SizableShrimp @SizableShrimp]

@ericwastl Also, I have a large library of utils I've made in Java that make it easier to use a JVM language. Like Manhattan distances, coordinates, z coordinates, hyper coordinates, unions, intersections, etc. My favorite one is probably my 2D boolean grid letter parser!

[SizableShrimp @SizableShrimp]

@ericwastl I told myself last year that I would learn Python well enough to use it for the leaderboard this year. That didn't happen, so I'm going back to my roots with Java/Kotlin. Last year, I wrote my solutions to each day in both Java and Kotlin and it was fun to learn Kotlin that way.

Thanks @ericwastl for all the AOC joy! I learned about AOC in 2018, and today I just finished 2017 + 2022, marking the last years I had left. It feels good to be done, but also sad that there's none left.

@ericwastl Most recently I learned to never underestimate the power of cubes :)

After lots of work, Forge is semi-functional on 1.19.3! With the new default player skins, Dev is getting a makeover!

[SizableShrimp @SizableShrimp]

1) This appears every time you start the game.
2) It will always say you were "recently" reported regardless of how long ago it actually was, even if permanent.

What it looks like when you are banned as of Minecraft 1.19.1 Pre-release 1:

@ForgeDevTeam 'Twas a wild ride, that 1.19 be.

[SizableShrimp @SizableShrimp]

@bolbmas Woot! Wild party!

[SizableShrimp @SizableShrimp]

@jimmywu74389584 @ericwastl I do have a lot of helper util which you can find at https://t.co/vA831cEkJ0, but on this day I used nothing more than a list and some string/integer parsing!

[SizableShrimp @SizableShrimp]

Thanks @ericwastl for such amazing Advent of Code puzzles! First time ever placing and it feels🎵so good!🎵
