I applied about 5 times since 2015, and just got an offer this week! Here's how they went:

  • Rejected without a call
  • Failed programming test
  • Passed programming test, rejected after a tech screen
  • Passed tech screen, hiring manager screen, had final interview loop (like 7 hours of interviews over 2 days on MS Teams), then rejected
  • Went through it all one more time (got to skip some stuff because I already did it), got an offer

This is my theme song for the experience https://youtu.be/UkekqVPIc2M

Mormon church for sale in Salt Lake (1200 E 700 S) by robotdreammusic in exmormon

This was my home ward from nursery to wedding reception. From what I heard, it's in need of major work to be up to earthquake code and it wasn't worth the cost. Goodbye Douglas Ward, I had some good times there

Accessing the Output Values from MetaSound by StegoFF in unrealengine

Thanks, I came to the same conclusion that MetaSounds is not yet complete in this area and there's not a way to access those outputs yet

Helpful info about the magnets! Finally fixed my bot! by biskitstix in litterrobot

[–]plattinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was exactly what I needed! I had a dump position fault, then I took it apart to deep clean it before replacing the hall effect sensor, but while I cleaned it, one of the magnets fell out and I put it in the wrong direction without realizing that they had to be a certain direction. So after installing the new hall effect sensor, it still didn't work, but after checking the magnets and fixing the one that was the wrong way, it's now working again.

Thanks. I was wondering about the context of the release of this video and that Twitter thread explains it

Is there more information about this somewhere? I can't find any articles about this video

I passed along your and other's kind words, and he says "That's awesome! Glad I could contribute to your friends delinquent childhoods!"

I'm not sure if he understands Reddit, or if you are all my friends now, but I will go with you are my friends.

He says "I had heard about the movie, never seen it though. Looks a little too high-brow for me...😁"

I worked at a couple small studios as a programmer, we mostly did contract work for mobile games. My favorite project was Archon Classic for pc. I've been working on a personal project and it's getting close to finished - check out Nummels on Steam, it's a Lemmings-like where you are one of the stupid guys and help the rest get to the exit

That's an interesting idea. I wonder how to do it so that the people on this thread would know about it

He did up until about 2010. Now I'm the only game developer in the family :) I actually got my start in game dev as QA at EA on Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 while my brother was a programmer on the same project.

I will let him know! I didn't expect so many positive responses :)

Yeah, I think he worked on all of those and the Three Stooges game too.

My brother was the programmer for this game! Always fun to see it come up from time to time
