Lies, damn lies and IT support. by phishf00din talesfromtechsupport

[–]llimllib 7 points8 points ago

When I was in high school, I worked in an IT department. We wanted to test the dead-camera theory, so we put one in the ceiling tiles facing the office bulletin board in the lunchroom. It was unattached just like yours, except we wired a blinking LED light to a battery and taped it to the camera to give it some realism.

Then we taped a dollar to the bulletin board.

When that didn't get taken for a week, we taped a 5.

When that didn't get taken for a week, we taped a 10.

Finally, somebody was daring enough to take the 20... I still suspect an inside job.

Help settle a team scrimmage argument: is it body contact while playing cutter defense a foul? by Lifacein ultimate

[–]llimllib 1 point2 points ago

For USAU players, and anyone interested in comparing, here are the relevant USAU rules (best I could find):


H. It is the responsibility of all players to avoid contact in every way possible

H.2. Contact resulting from adjacent opposing players simultaneously vying for the same unoccupied position, is not in itself a foul.

H.3.C. blocking fouls

H.3.C.1. When the disc is in the air a player may not move in a manner solely to prevent an opponent from taking an unoccupied path to the disc and any resulting non-incidental contact is a foul on the blocking player which is treated like a receiving foul

H.3.C.2. A player may not take a position that is unavoidable by a moving opponent when time, distance, and line of sight are considered . Non-incidental contact resulting from taking such a position is a foul on the blocking player.


Very similar, although it looks to me that WFDF's "indirect foul" is a bit more strict than USAU's H.3.C.1, which applies only if the defender moves solely to prevent an opponent from taking an unoccupied path to the disc.

Also, H.3.C.2 is, as gfshoexc notes, routinely violated in the upper level college and high level club game in the US. The rule as it's practiced, in my experience, is more like:

"A defender may take a position that is unavoidable by a moving opponent so long as he is set in that position before the offensive player reaches the position."

(Kind of like the charge rule in basketball)

Python built-in functions are awesome. Use them ! by BaltoRouberolin Python

[–]llimllib 0 points1 point ago

I concede all those points.

I'll still use divmod, because I like how it looks better than x/y, x%y, but you're absolutely correct.

Using seperate operators is actually more concise.. and not really any less clear

d, r = 7/3, 7%3

is more concise and clear? Doesn't seem that way to me.

more performant

At least for integers, the / and % operators are defined in terms of divmod, so you'll be doing the same division and allocating all the same variables twice instead of once.

edit: float is too

[–]llimllib 30 points31 points ago

The one I always forget to use is:

>>> divisor, remainder = divmod(7, 3)
>>> divisor, remainder
(2,1)

shrug I don't think it is, and I've had it done to me after being beaten by some of the players you're watching in this video.

edit 1: Reasonable people can disagree.

edit 2: Unless you really believe Aumann

I've been playing for 15 years too, I just think the dancing and celebrations in this video are fun and silly.

No worries, and glad we could have a civilized discussion.

Too bad they still lost the game :)

[–]llimllib 4 points5 points ago

As a specialist defender of deep cutters, I have strong feelings about when I feel taunted after I've been scored on. We disagree, so I'll try to list the cases when I feel taunted:

  1. When the whole team rushes the field around me as I'm still on the ground after a bid, nobody helps me up or even worse they run into me. Nothing makes me angrier. Especially when it's not a significant point (early in the game/up a bunch of points)

  2. Any sort of spike on or towards me or a teammate.

  3. Looking me in the eyes as the celebration occurs or pointing at me; generally any attempt to make it personal.

And that's it. I think it's funny if you celebrate an easy catch, spike the disc away from me, or celebrate in any humorous way without making it personal. It gives a little more fuel to my fire but doesn't offend me at all, and I don't see why I should get offended about it.

Basically: as long as you're not looking to start a fight, I think celebrations are great.

[–]llimllib 6 points7 points ago

You can celebrate without taunting, and that seems perfectly compatible with SOTG to me.

I wish the NFL encouraged endzone celebrations. Why not? Ridiculous celebrations are fun.

Yes. Always attack the disc.

I suspect he didn't think Rico had a shot at the disc.

I helped "coach" the CCSU "team" once in... 2003 maybe? earlier? When they were a group of guys wearing sneakers and playing in a courtyard on campus. I tried unsuccessfully to convince them to limit the length of their end zones.

Connecticut ultimate has come a long way since then :)
