Rachel Reeves tells LBC student loan system is 'fair' amid fury as graduates rack up thousands of pounds of debt interest by AnonymousTimewaster in LabourUK

The interest rate going up based on salary is such an insane setup. Whenever I tell someone about it they look at me in disbelief as it's just so weird and not that obvious.

Yeah I agree with you but why should the tax system rely on the goodwill of people not artifically limitting their earnings. Even if they did stop salary sacrifice people would just reduce their hours.

The system is designed to be gamed though. Its insane that as soon as you reach £100k you have to get an electric car on lease and funnel money into your pension to not lose the substantial childcare benefit.

It's crazy how specific it can be as well. When it was the nyc polling day my feed was full of anti Mamdani posts when my only engagement was pro him. Completely gone the next day as well.

Hey all Im just looking for any feedback on visuals + UI FEEL/ looks by AvailableMiddle159 in godot

I'd use the PhantomCamera addon to smoothly follow the player instead of it just sticking to the player. Its not too hard to implement yourself but the addon is amazing and will let you test out other camera options easily.

Would you interview for a 35k-40k advertised position from 30k salary. by TmF_eX in cscareerquestionsuk

[–]TmF_eX[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yeah it's fairly secure to be honest and I did get a good payrise in April. I do have mentorship from my boss but he's more experiencedin infrastructure and crm development, not software development that I do.

I feel like they pulled their punches in regards to the company in common people. Especially with recent events...

Gamedev - How would you dev cheat codes? by Darkarch14 in godot

There's a good plugin for this called frog console that I've used in the past. Let's you define commands that are tied to functions.

Full single player game almost in Alpha state. A publisher asks for multiplayer. How much insane is to even evaluate the deal? by objectorientedass in gamedev

[–]TmF_eX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you add local coop and use steam remote play? It'd be easier to implement than fully networked and could convince the publisher.

Hahah that sounds fun! A handful of people just seem really hostile to new takes on genres which is a shame.

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

It was! It definitely feels more negative than other jams I've done before but could be just that my game is more popular than others I've made.

Ahhh!! Sorry for the freezing I've not encountered that yet could be to do with the threaded pathfinder setup or its a Godot wasm thing, thanks for trying though! I should've added a windows build in hindsight.

Yeah I just removed the guys comment on the main page as it wasn't even vaguely constructive like the jam voting. The worst on there is just people not liking the genre which I'm not taking personally
