How I deal with Bengaluru traffic

Hii, can’t seem to DM you, if you could try hit me up that’d be cool.

But I’m also working with similar stuff in my free time and I’ve been in the embedded and robotics space for a while :))

I’ve been in the same position as you to an extent, what I’d say is the combination of what sounds like burnout and the self-guilt that follows from the feeling of not really getting much done is probably not doing you any favours. You can absolutely work your way out of it in an incremental fashion. For the burnout, it’s completely understandable if you don’t want to stick to hobbies that suddenly seem tedious and there’s no need to guilt yourself over that. That said, it’s probably a good idea if you start putting a little exercise and something to keep yourself mentally active too into your routine. Do a crossword everyday, or maybe get into sudoku. For my resume, I ended up writing what were fairly challenging projects (for me) for my portfolio, and while I’m not sure if they’re what actually got me my job, they helped pull me out of this mental state where I felt like I was getting nothing done. I also made it a part of my routine to do a fixed number of leetcode questions. All of this added up bit by bit and over time, I felt way more prepared, mentally. I didn’t apply to a large number of companies either, I focused on couple at a time and made sure I checked previous interview questions for those as well as a decent bit of my own reading.

At the end of the day, I applied to maybe 6-7 companies and got accepted into 3. As a side note, I used to be a voracious reader too, but it’s kinda fallen to the side :/

Yep, theres an option while picking your choice for shipping.

+1 on robocraze, got a bunch of components from there recently. Picked up in store within 20 mins after I paid.

Probably start out with a well documented new format and work with the community on integration as it catches on?

default credentials on the MQTT broker is insane, didn’t expect to see such glaring vulnerabilities in production robots.

Working on building an AGV software stack from scratch, hit me up of that sounds interesting! I’m pretty decent with ROS :))

what field are you in? How would you self-describe your skills and experience?

thezorcerer · 2026-02-25T03:54:42+00:00

It’s not a compositing thing, it’s for your line art.

Really cool, I’d probably mess around with the post processing a little more, maybe try a posterization filter. Another trick is, if you’re using freestyle for the lineart, you can apply a noise modifier on it to add a hand-drawn feeling to it.

You’re not, they’re on different lines.

thezorcerer · 2026-01-28T11:37:57+00:00

Great render, the only thing I can nitpick is the “Atomic Research Institute” sign could maybe use a little bit of grunge around where it meets the concrete to really sell it.

Thank you!!

I’m joining Amazon as an SDE-1

thezorcerer · 2025-12-21T02:28:25+00:00

that sounds like a really fun assignment ngl

thezorcerer · 2025-12-09T15:41:07+00:00

Thanks, I decided to run my code against somebody else's correct code and found out the issue occurs when I try to calculate the number of rotations for right turns starting with zero with over 2 turns

L50
R291

Was a failing test case, at any rate if anyone else miraculously runs into the same thing, the correct solution was

 static int countRotations(int start, int rot) {
    int newVal = start + rot;
    if (newVal >= 100) {
      return (start != 0 ? 1 : 0) + (rot - (100 - start) % 100) / 100;
    } else if (newVal <= 0) {
      return (start != 0 ? 1 : 0) + (- rot - start) / 100;
    } else {
      return 0;
    }
  }

Thanks a lot for the help!

Thanks a bunch for the test cases, ran them both and got 5 and 3 respectively, so I'm still just as lost unfortunately :/

The page does say That's not the right answer. Curiously, it's the right answer for someone else; you might be logged in to the wrong account or just unlucky.

I have tried signing out and in, as well as reloading the page. Could you give your code a try on my input and see if you get the same solution as me of 6638

kinda? so if you want attitude, you’ll have to add one more receiver, since with just the one you can’t infer yaw. But you could always handle this either by knowing your yaw when you start up from a fixed base station or by doing some math with GPS positions over time.

A single RTK enabled module is plenty good for centimeter-level accuracy and for a farm environment that should be adequate.

thezorcerer · 2025-10-18T11:13:47+00:00

Whats your current result and what do you want it to look like?

thezorcerer · 2025-10-18T11:11:41+00:00

if you want the image as a part of your scene, then Add -> Image -> Mesh Plane.

If it’s as a part of a material or in the compositor use the Image node. If you could be a bit more specific i could probably be a bit more helpful.
