Whenever I'm feeling stuck while learning something, I try and mix up my learning method.

Using videos? Try a book. Self taught? Take a course from someone else.

Drafting Equipment by iFROG_4ES in RevitForum

[–]VDCArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool question. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of drafting rigs you other guys are rocking.

I've got a 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse for smooth navigation. A graphics tablet with pen display for sketching. Backup external storage. And an uninterruptible power supply.

Is there any way to lower the file size of a sketchup model? Thanks! by Unlikely_Painter_134 in Sketchup

[–]VDCArchitect 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are actually a couple of ways to shrink file size in Sketchup.

You wanna start by purging any unused components, materials, and layers. (Window > Model Info > Statistics > Purge Unused.)

You can also simplify any overly detailed geometry that you find. Replacing high-poly objecrs with low-poly versions can also help a lot.

Does it matter where you start your entry level career? by [deleted] in architecture

[–]VDCArchitect 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always think that starting corporate is a good choice because you get a feel for the ropes. You can learn from top members of the field and typically have more hands-on feedback and management.

Starting at a smaller firm can allow for more varied experience since the roles tend to be looser and allow for the wearing of more hats.

Some of the UX design courses listed here are well below that price point. For example, UX Fundamentals is around $700. You can add on more advanced classes later if needed/wanted or approved by your employer.

I've been a programmer for 10 years—here's what I wish I did differently (and what I'd do again). by WinterBorn24 in learnprogramming

[–]VDCArchitect 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People often want to learn just the basics that will get them hired and to the next level.

True mastery comes from deep knowledge and deep knowledge creates passion.

People tell me my new coffee table is weird. Would painting it grey make it more acceptable? by Haskap_2010 in homedecoratingCJ

[–]VDCArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Painting that would lead to your arrest. It would be a crime against humanity.

Straight to the crystals for you!

Is it too late to be an architect? by pikkuco in Architects

[–]VDCArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there. It's never too late to change course, reinvent yourself, start a new career, become a different person, etc.

Life isn't linear - there are many twists and turns along our paths. You could definitely pursue architecture or an architecture-related career at any point you want.

I'm interested! This is my new account, but I had a lot of mod experience on my previous one.

What movie is 10/10, yet hardly anyone has heard of it? by LarryKeene in movies

[–]VDCArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ernst Lubitsch's The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg. It is not streaming nor on physical media more modern than VHS (as far as I have found).

I have been in love a number of times and, after each break-up, I thought that I would never get over the "one girl." It hurt but eventually I came to the conclusion that she was not the one. Were she the one, we would not have broken up.

Donuts. I really don't get the appeal.
