This Week in Bevy!
This week there are a bunch of Bevy Jam submissions in the showcase. I've chosen to include only those that were shared separately from submission and only cover each superficially while voting is still active (for one more week). More complete coverage of the Jam will come after voting ends.

git commit --allow-empty -m "trigger build"

An overview of Component Hooks and Observers for Bevy.

Avian physics sensors and collision events used to power higher-level enter/exit observer triggers. Allowing "follow player if close enough" behavior and generalizable to other ideas like stationary turrets with distant sensors.
Punching Bag follows player when it can "see" the player.

This week in the Bevy ecosystem we see Tiny Glade ship a Steam demo, live VJ sets powered by Bevy, screen space reflections in the deferred renderer and more.
We've also got the usual showcases and a couple really interesting crate release for 2d lighting systems and gpu particles.

controller support plus 32-angles of sprite rendered out for each animation. Makes it feel much more "3d"-y even though its all 2d sprites.
isometric projection is now also being applied to the directional input and the raycasts, etc.

This week in Bevy we've got some project changes relating to contributing, PR review, and the formalization of working groups, new color grading and state-management features, as well as some exciting experiments and demos.
Particularly interesting on the experimental side of things is a new crate and some experimentation with Bevy/Vello integration.

The fact that I can just *look up* why a thing is like it is in #rustlang is amazing.
What's the motivation behind this clippy lint? Just check the original motivating issue.
Why does this function work like that? It's over here in that rfc.
etc

and we're done. First time I've completed all 50 #adventofcode stars.
Here's my entire playlist including videos for every day (day 25 coming out tomorrow morning). Using #rustlang and even some #bevyengine for visualizations.

@npub129g…4kwg I don't plan on calling this out personally because telling people they can't use the language before they read the book isn't something I believe is true.

I'll be back in person at RustNation UK speaking about how #bevyengine makes game programming accessible and the techniques in use powering these ergonomic #rustlang APIs.

@npub129g…4kwg I'm having a hard time understanding the benchmarks here.
Why is the benchmark calling the serialization function a variable number of times per N? Why is the data set up with bitshifts[0]?
No stress if you don't have time for this or whatnot. Was just reading the post and got curious about how the numbers were generated and such. I haven't used Divan yet, so I might be missing something.
[0]: the numbers generated seem like an awkward progression: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2021&gist=5a06b19f5248428ff45c7e71771faf46
