You could try projecting rays from start through the obstacles to see where they intersect after a limited number of reflections. This should narrow it to a few candidate spots

Four years ago my sensei invited another sensei for a seminar and the other sensei said nearly exactly the same thing, but I never heard my sensei say it. Is your sensei Fujishima?[1] [1] https://twitter.com/themitak/st

The author might enjoy `git rebase -i main`, which allows reordering, renaming, combining or pretty much everything in your own branch before you rebase and merge it to the main branch. That way even if a commit message is not clear or you

Seems about right ballpark, if not undercounting it. My team doesn't releases a mobile client but we release desktop client / chrome extensions every week. It takes about a day of work for an engineer to go through the builds, QA,

I wouldn't underestimate the potential of that project. I know of other cases where well funded CEOs have tried bullying away someone who recently worked for them from starting a company in a related space. Glad that they weren't

Is there a minimal guaranteed optimal play for the game of tetris (not just hatetris as linked here). Or phrased another way, if you play against the smartest, most devious AI, what's a score that you cannot get past. The high score of

Thanks, that was a very helpful comment. I had to reason backwards from "in what situation I'm guaranteed a line", and then, how do I get there. I was able to get 4 lines with a few tries. Here's my base2048 encoded game
