Isn't the only difference between rotors, as defined in this article, and quaternions the sign of the second 3d component? And this only happens because the planes are defined as "xy", "xz" and "yz", rathe

I mean, no, they didn't actually occur, that is the good part. That doesn't let Ross off the hook for attempting to make them occur.

Because there was no need to, the other charges were enough to put him away for life. There's really very little reason to doubt he did it, either.

So: Short a large amount of bitcoins, 51% attack until value plunges, earn massive amounts of money. Of course, the problem with this is that there is no exchange that you can trust enough to actually do this.

There are many more ways to make money off a 51% attack than just altering transactions.

WebGPU is a simpler API for doing modern rendering, with less tradeoff. OpenGL is not simple if you want to actually do useful things with it.

I mean, that is exactly what WebGPU is, so I am not understanding why you are so determined to complain about it.

And it became increasingly less of a good fit with each one. By now, it is ridiculously mismatched to the task it needs to perform. Just leave it to die.

OpenGL absolutely is a legacy API today. It has been an awful impedance mismatch to modern GPUs for about a decade now.

That will most likely be the already mentioned WebGPU.

OpenGL really is a legacy API in 2020. There is a massive mismatch between modern GPU design and the OpenGL API design. The only reason it wasn't left behind a decade ago is that there wasn't a decent replacement. Today, with Vulk

This I/O device thing seems to be a feature of one specific wasm engine that just exposes a simple framebuffer, so, it has nothing to do with anything else.

Sure, those that have their own culture do exists, but a lot of times, it's not even that. It's a weird mindset, and it's definitely tied in to the toxic streak of white supremacy that runs through all of American culture.

Sure, if you don't care about transitions and animations at all. If you're wanting to do a really responsive and nice-feeling app, the react model hinders you far more than it helps.
