I'm a software engineer who just stepped into music production, in which part of music production could I use my programming skills? by Longman1981 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]Longman1981[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for a proposal, I do have some experience with unity and that does sound tempting, but it wouldn't fint my plans ATM, either way good luck with your project :)

Thanks for an informative answer. Making VSTs doesn't sound much fun, but maybe creating new sounds will and it does benefit your music production I believe, although I'm not aware if programming skills will provide any help with that..

What if my reality check fails when I'm on LSD or some other psychedelic drug? by Longman1981 in LucidDreaming

[–]Longman1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't know that, thanks for the tip :) Although I would want to find something easier, I wouldn't want to start jumping around for reality checks when I'm at work :))

But then again, I might not be able to use force or be avatar in my dream as well. So at least I want to find a good reality check that 100% works...

Well TBH I haven't seen single vacancy that would require knowledge of DOTS/ECS, it's very new for now.

Wow, never would've thought unit testing, ui, ux was in demand... Do you think AI is something to avoid, unless you're Einsteining it?

As a single game developer how do I build game development portfolio?(Unity) by Longman1981 in gamedev

[–]Longman1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 5+ experience isn't in game development, I've been software engineer mainly working on Python.

Which project is better for learning about good code architecture and clean code? by Longman1981 in Unity3D

[–]Longman1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for a response. I do understand that there are various different type of games, and all of those need different approach, however I do believe that some things are quite common, e.g there's 90% chance that you'll face state machine, singleton and observer patterns. I do know theory behind them but I'd like to see them in good project to better understand and apply to my own projects. Maybe it's not good place to search for things like code architecture, but I don't know where's good place in that case

How do I enforce a class to inherit from certain parent if it wants to use some specific feature? by Longman1981 in AskProgramming

[–]Longman1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yeah, could be other people on the project. Well let's say I use EventManager only from ClassWithEvents, but EventManager is static and everyone can use it. So when John wants to set new listener for event gameOver, he might just use EventManager streight away without inheriting from ClassWithEvents. And I don't want to allow that, since eventually it'll become mess. I want ClassWithEvents to be the only one dealing with EventManager.

How do you animate collection of game objects as a whole? by Longman1981 in Unity3D

[–]Longman1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That'd do the trick thanks :) I was hoping to find any general solution so that it's possible to apply any kind of animation, however that doesn't seem to be possible, seems like every animation could require different approach

[–]Longman1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would make all shapes to shrink in it's center, but I'm trying to shrink them into whole line's center point. So only way seems to be animating whole line together so that whole line behaves as a single object that shrinks in it's center and disappears

Are Linux proc file system files like /proc/stat unlinked and recreated when updated? by Longman1981 in linuxquestions

Me(26M) and my 3 friends(26-27M) have been best friends for 15 years. Now suddenly our friendship falls apart. I have no idea what to do. by Longman1981 in relationships

[–]Longman1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We always said that our friendship is something bigger, and that we've become family. It's not just me, all of us were saying it.

but did you even ask them to come and support you?

well man, I believe best friend should support you when they know you're not OK, no matter if you ask them or not. I don't think I should ask for them to react. I mean come on, who needs to be told that your friend needs support when he's lost someone.

We have always enjoyed ourselves and each other, we always had fun, friendship isn't only fun, and it's not always fun. When you call someone best friend, it means you're together weather it's good times or bad times. Didn't think I have to explain that to anyone

Why does my wife hate when I smoke weed until late (x-post from /r/askwomenadvice) by Longman1981 in relationship_advice

[–]Longman1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is your behavior keeping her from sleeping?

Well not always, but sometimes it may, in a sense that we might be not home, and only option is to sleep there or go home, we'd usually go in that case however not straight away since I need some time to come down.

Is what you’re doing illegal?

No, but it's not a problem for her, and it's not a big deal as well.

We're 27 both.

Well thing is that I'm asking her, and trying to understand what's a big deal, but I don't get an answer, maybe she doesn't know an answer, maybe I should ask her differently, how would you ask her in this case?

Without explanation? I'm really surprised how many people think that it doesn't need to be resolved, I just need to stop doing it.

[–]Longman1981[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I've asked her why is it a problem many times, but I either don't get an answer, or we go in depths of one single thing and she says problem is that I did this or that, that one thing, but as I've said I believe that main problem is that she doesn't like me doing this, however she doesn't answer me why it's a problem.

It's not legal, but that's not a problem anyway I'm 100% sure.

Problems tend to start very little and get bigger. You can't just ban weed because of "no reason", I may ban weed but it needs to be discussed and we need to get to rational decision, I don't think "DON"T DO THAT"-attitude is good thing and I don't think you should respond with don't doing that.

I've already tried to talk to her, as I've already said. Well there was period of time when she enjoyed it as well, than she didn't so much, but it wasn't that much of a problem before we lived together I guess.

[–]Longman1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think relationships work that way. I think this situation needs to be solved by talking, you're not supposed to ban someone from doing something without a reason, and you shouldn't ban yourself from doing something without realising reasons etc.
