[1:52:40][@flyingsolomon][Q: Don't forget that you can now indent your shaders (if you updated ~4coder)]
[1:53:21][@jojomunki][Q: Could the raycasting be bouncing off the bounds of the scene?][:lighting :rendering]

[2:21:10][@deravadom][Q: I've been having a lot of trouble staying motivated / inspired for new projects. Do you have any tips on how to take an idea and actually bring it fully into existence?]
[2:25:22][@printf_armin][Q: Did you get depends to work (the new version)]
[2:25:35][@stav_5][I'm fairly new to the series (only on Day 013) do you recommend coding along with the series? I personally like to just watch and learn rather than copying everything you type, but I don't know]
[2:26:37][@ieee754][Q: Have you considered applying for twitch partner? (I would subscribe)]
[2:27:21][@dragoonx6][Q: Consider getting a bitcoin, litecoin, and ethereum wallet, it's an easy way for people to donate. It's hard to get your money out of it, though, but I think it could be worth it]
