• What’s the most efficient way to get a 3D tracked camera into your Maya scene?

  You may wanna have a look at Mocha Pro or PFTrack, depending on your requirements and your budget. Source: over 1 year ago

• Anyone know how to get the lock down plug in for free ?

  Don't pirate. If you need mesh tracking, I've had lots of success with Mocha Pro's PowerMesh. There's a free trial, and one month is only $37 USD. Source: over 2 years ago

• First vfx video. Made my cousin spew laser from his eyes. I still have to learn mocha.

  Mocha is, at it's core, planar tracker, which means it tracks flat surfaces really well, but it's grown to become more of an "object tracker" that can track pretty much anything you want, the Pro version has a PowerMesh function similar to LockDown, powerful rotoscoping tools, and is generally considered to be incredibly useful in VFX. Here's the product page if you want to dive deeper. Pro is free for students... Source: almost 3 years ago

• Compiling a single-file app with csc.dll

  We use Buck company wide. Our packaging / deployment system, for example, expects to be given a Buck target to build, not a pre-built binary - I can’t just build my app with dotnet and upload it.

• Just: A Command Runner

  Oh excellent, then better (and more portable!) tools are available: http://pants.build https://ninja-build.org https://buck.build and, if you hate yourself: https://bazel.build. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Dev Discussions: Everything You Need to Know about Monorepos with Juri Strumpflohner of Nrwl

  Pioneered by tech giants like Google and Meta with tools like Bazel and Buck, monorepos are seeing widespread adoption across companies of all sizes and industries. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Using URLs for dependency management

  Buck has a http_file() that you can use this way, and it has first-class support for Java. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Is it possible to be an android developer ONLY with the documentation?

  That's a good bridge into saying that we don't use pretty much any standard tooling. Our build system is Buck, we use Mercurial instead of Git, and the IDE of choice seems to be Visual Studio (although Android Studio is supported, with some custom plugins required). Source: about 2 years ago
