It’s kind of funny that all of the complaints about optionality apply equally to Vulkan. Google even created the same profile solution with “Android Vulkan Profiles (AVP)”. I suspect Vulkan suffers from the same design by committee problem

I expect the formatter/linter to be run as part of presubmit and/or committing the code so it doesn't matter how it's edited and saved by the developer. It's strange to hear of a specific IDE being mandated to work

Sublime does it, at least with Merge. It’s weird to think Linux programs would somehow be different from Windows in this regard. Why would a program running in Linux are more altruistic (for lack of a better term) than one running in Windo

Both of the examples in the quote give you the answer: talk to someone that’s actually done it. It’s always amazing to me how often the person 3 desks over has already solved the same problem, but is never asked how by the next person. Inst
