Getting #GodotEngine oiled up to the state it is now, where development speed is so incredibly fast and there is such good harmony with foundation, contributions and community took many many, _many_ years of refining processes for development, contribution, release management, moderation, etc.

I will do a talk about it at GodotCon in a week explaining parts of this process!

Pressing the fork button takes a second. Learning to do what we do takes a tiny bit more 😞.

@ivan thats why its called low level programming ❤️

🚨 INCOMING SKILLSHARE 🚨

join us next week September 26th at 5:00 p.m. NYC time as worker-owner @nasser walks us through the coroutine system he developed that powers most of his personal practice and a lot of EMMA projects! if you're interested in unorthodox control flow, architecture for interactive software, or writing code that exists in physical time then this one is for you!

Testing "decal mode" for MRMO-VECTOR.

Objects designated as "decals" sample normals from a "base" object, causing them to be culled when facing away from the camera.

We're hiring a Technical Administrator at @spritelyinst! This position is both technical and organizational... more or less you'd be helping the Executive Director (me) carry out the mission of the organization using FOSS tools. https://spritely.institute/news/come-work-with-us-hiring-a-technical-administrator.html

You don't have to be a programmer to take this position, but you do have to be comfortable with using and *learning* FOSS tooling (such as Emacs and Org-Mode, which are used heavily in the organization).

Non-traditionally CS paths to using FOSS tech are welcome; particularly excellent for someone who is early in their career as a free and open source enthusiast, or a humanities graduate student who uses technical tooling to organize their work, or someone who has established experience in the organizational end of FOSS ecosystems. If you feel that assisting in the organization of a FOSS nonprofit while using or learning particular FOSS tools is appealing, apply! https://spritely.institute/jobs/2024-09-12-technical-administrator.html

Came across "ethically sourced Lena image" recently https://mortenhannemose.github.io/lena/ and found an excuse to make use of it in a test today 😁

I was explaining to a friend what issues I was having when trying to work with vector stuff, and then mid-explanation understood what I'm supposed to do to get results like this :D
