So if I finally ate at 6pm, hours later than 6pm I would feel like sleeping.
If I finally eat any later than 6pm I will start getting weak/shaky beyond 6pm.
This isn't a result of lack of acclimation. I've done fasting for 4+ month stretches multiple times in the past 6 years and have even experimented with 24+ hour fasts on a regular basis.
Items in-game of course can "nudge" the formula.
Doing this on the block-chain is an interesting idea a few people have suggested to me, but ultimately it didn't mesh with my idea of what the game should be.
It's a monster-collecting game, so I really can't figure out what the link is there to programmers.
Thank god I'm only doing this as a hobby because I bet such a connection would be obvious to anyone more entrepreneur-like than I.
I'm not buying that it's a scaling issue personally.
Sounds like you might've been the first to ask!
This instantly brought me back to the 2003/2004 Computer Magazine articles with customized TiVo Setups or homebrewed alternatives entirely running on a media center PC.
Why would using your left-over time and effort for a side project that may improve your life a bad thing? Does your employer have the right to "own" that effort as well?
If so I think the pay scales need some adjusting.
Even things done a million times can be turned on their head.
However, if you "do" all of your ideas, you may have to face the cold reality that none of them worked out or were that great/enjoyed after all.
So there's pros and cons.
Ultimately, there's a reason they pay you to work.
More Data Collection < Less Data Collection
disregarding transaction fees of course, otherwise it was horrible :)
I wonder why you disqualify your multiplayer mode? Sure on the SP it would be unrealistic but I see no reason two players couldn't share an original model GBA, holding one end each.
Frustrated with music recommendation services I built a ruby script this past weekend to scrape my favorite artist's last.fm pages and then iterate on each follower, compiling a list of their likes to sort of crowd-source music recommendations for myself.
This too resulted in failure, it seems that the problem is me, I'm far too picky.
I'd love to get your insight on any alternative strategies for finding new artists if your likes don't necessarily fit squarely inside genres.
No doubt a similar time sink as checking the discussion on 3-4 pages on HN.
If more of your favorite artists were not available on streaming services you'd probably be ok with spending the time.
It was a real problem.
