Does this website run at 10fps for anyone else? I'm on a mac M4 w/ safari. Really doesn't help the author's point.

You should! And you might enjoy this video about making a CPU rasterizer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyJ-hdISgnw Note that when the parent comment says "software rendering" they're referring to software

RGB doesn't map to a single line, you're thinking just about the hue. RGB is a proper vector that addresses a whole 3D color space.

Does anyone know if this tech (or Iroh) is suitable for real-time networking for games? Basically, once connection is established, what's the overhead on top of UDP in terms of latency and bandwidth? Edit: after digging a little, Iroh

Take a broader view of what "building secure systems" means. It's not just about the code being written by ICs but about the business incentives, tech choices of leadership, the individual ways execs are rewarded, legacy real

Everyone's talking about the music but I also love the dot rendering system you're using for terrain and plants! Very neat effect, simple but it's a nice style. I'd love to see a whole forest done like this, maybe a flow

Steve put the nail in the coffin but the downfall started and was primarily caused by Macromedia being purchased by Adobe, IMHO. All the problems of Flash were solvable had it continued to been driven by a team and leadership that understoo

This is missing much, including that we've outsourced our manufacturing (and thus CO2 from manufacturing) but we still buy lots of stuff that requires intense manufacturing.

Damn, I wish they had filmed this restoration and put it all on YouTube, that would have been an incredible channel. Like Tally Ho[0] but for a plane. [0] https://www.youtube.com/@SampsonBoatCo

Roblox uses a heavily customized version of Lua, and in it they've fixed many of the pain points of Lua and JS. One example is their Lua allows value types/copy semantics, native number types like f32 / i32, and simd. These a

“Since” could mean yesterday. But i would like to hear more details of the corruption if parent is willing to share. This is pretty much my worst nightmare scenario.

Pretty sure these are very different phenomena both called "ubershaders". As far as I understand it, outside of Dolphin, when people say "ubershader" they mostly mean a large material shader that has branches and constan

I've tried many but never gotten into any Zachtronics games for one simple reason: they are all puzzle games. For me the motivation just never materializes. Contrast this to 100s of hours w/ each of Factorio, Satsifactory, and DSP

Yikes I hate that Thierry is using "#freefortnite". You can be completely on board with the DMA but still see Epic's behavior as entirely profit motivated and "freeing Fortnite" should not be any official's pri

Most indie games have a publisher and publishers have a lot of control.

I’ve always preferred the Wolfire approach[0]: animation should “do no harm” to player control, it’s only there to add flavor, never at the cost of game responsivity [0] https://youtu.be/LNidsMesxSE?si=W7xnQfXt5ulfHklR

Yeah, definitely a sloppy analogy ironically enough. But as a woodworker I’ve realize most people when they hear plywood they’re really thinking OSB or cheap particle board. Quality high-ply with a hardwood outer layer isn’t in their vocabu

I read and loved that book however nowadays I highly recommend playing the game “Turing Complete” instead. It does a fantastic job taking you from nand gates all the way to function calls but in a delightfully interactive way. Instead of ju
