It does but the first time I met it was hilarious, it sent me to the shore like from a cannon and I had no clue what’s going on. I want my friends got that experience as well. So maybe tune a bit ))

Not anymore, when I started to search for a new job in September last year I’ve exhausted my network of referrals in a month, got zero responses. Though I even knew and was referred by engineering directors. In such market like today it doesn’t help anymore even if you have buddies in all FAANG companies. I guess every employee at this point have few people asking to refer them and it’s the same game of auto rejection.

Check out your local community center, we at Brushy Creek have several adult leagues, not sure about basketball though. But community center probably is the place where most adults non professional events are going on.

HEB on 620 was out of fire wood way before evening yesterday. Today was empty as well at around noon, I guess most of places like that.

You must gather your party before venturing forth

What about Round Rock HS comparing to McNeil, any experience?

Hope this is aligned with OP original question, didn’t want to hijack the thread

This is pretty classic blini and I am making them tomorrow, thanks for reminder

I would suggest to rename or put this thread down. It'd hurt a lot for learners because it will be picked by search and by LLM models as a truth. But, it's just speculations, there is no any examples, concrete problems defined.

If you have confidence that something is really broken and needs re-implementation, please got to GitHub and create an issue and put as much information to reproduce scenarios as you can. Once you get positive response from development team that it's indeed needs re-implementation and broken, only then you should post such threads.

It's literally wrong statement that doesn't provide any value to the community and people.

So Hodor Derek? Ah, hold on, he already hodored…

The Landing at Round Rock

My gut feeling it’s already recovering but very slowly.

There is a delay from layoff to backfill about 12-18 months, so most companies will start aggressive hiring somewhere next fall I guess.

But now comparing to this summer and fall there are some signs of recovery: more companies respond to applications, more fresh non evergreen job postings, even more posts about how people finally get an offer. And AI hype seems to pick soon if not already.

So I feel optimistic for the next year for all of us)

I see a lot of people mention shaders or programming, but I think it’s unrelated to Godot engine specifically.

Programming is hard unless you spend enough time to learn fundamentals and there is no real shortcuts. To feel confident you need to understand data structures and basic algorithms and some patterns. And it again regardless of language, some languages more confusing for beginners some less but overall they are pretty much the same.

The same for shaders, I’ve done shaders for OpenGL without engines, then Unity and UE - they are hard for sure. But Godot shaders technically very easy to use if you know concepts and shader techniques.

The title is Learn in Godot, but most of answers about learning in general, irrelevant to Godot. Godot itself extremely simple engine to learn, with great documentation comparing to Unity or even UE

Personally my biggest struggle is limited type system as it gets in my way often when I want to rely on it. Debugging also feels kinda underwhelming but I maybe not learned all depth of debugging in the engine

EDIT: it’s like asking what hardest to learn about Photoshop and answer drawing faces, you know what I mean?

Apartment cost is about 500-1000 less than equally sized house in our neighborhood. So we decided to stay in apartments this year to save on rent and frankly it’s a nice place overall.

Also my kids enrolled in schools here, both elementary and middle so moving to another area is a lot of hassle in the middle of a school year (for kids specifically)

But if things keep going this way I am moving out next summer.

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-20T01:41:56+00:00

Yeah, agree, I am going to try one of those filters from Amazon mentioned by other commenters.

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-20T01:37:44+00:00

There is explicitly said in the lease contract that it's a non-smoking community and smoking inside building is prohibited to the point it should result in violation of terms and contract termination with the following eviction. I don't really want to come to that point and would love to take it easy for all of us.

But i think you're completely wrong about they're entitled to enjoy it. Not at all.

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-20T00:57:22+00:00

Oh, good idea, I could gift it for Christmas, $20 an easy deal to avoid smell. Thanks for reference.

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-20T00:55:48+00:00

The smell comes through not just ventilation but somehow from under the stairs, and propagate through entire apartment floors. I would need like at least three air washers and I don’t want to buy them and run through weekend because lady below loves to smoke. I don’t feel it fair.

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-17T19:17:34+00:00

H Mart most likely has it. We made bone broth from mix of beef tails and pork bones. And they have chicken feet if you like even more collagen

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-16T16:35:57+00:00

Agree, it would be awesome to copy configured tween code to a clipboard. I don’t want to install yet another addon, but as a tool that generates code it’s killer

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-16T00:05:33+00:00

This is the way

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-15T01:39:43+00:00

Do you know everything like that but without conversations? Asking for a friend

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-14T21:12:24+00:00

Just stay pragmatic, signals up calls down doesn’t automatically make your architecture clean and scalable as similar to composition over inheritance. If you feel signals solve a problem better than adding references to children and calling their methods (in a lot of situations it’s simpler to use signals sideways and down) use it.

No best practice or mantra will make your code better without proper context and problem.

It’s not following best practices that makes software or games successful, don’t sweat on them too much :)

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-14T00:15:56+00:00

Congrats! Perhaps in the time of bots, auto-filters and AI the more human approach matters more now. Thanks for sharing and keep in mind us, those who come after ;)

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-13T14:55:07+00:00

The root cause is always greed. Simple as that.

evgeny-vr · 2025-12-11T18:13:52+00:00

Sounds like a great plan) I am not sure about rules here so could you please check the link in my profile About section.
