This is the beauty of open source in action - everyone can benefit. Valve are no stranger to open source, and as it turns out they're using a little bit of code from Godot Engine now too.
in programming, tx is the abbrev for transaction sometime. also for “transmit” in the context of receive and transmit when a stream (of data) is duplex (both ways). I never questioned the tx abbrev until now, but just yesterday I used it. hmm
edit: apparenty it’s pure coincidece between tx for transaction and tx part of duplex abbrevs.
