How did they managed to pull this off so quickly? Given how long WebGPU native is in development and still not finalized, you would think it will take SDL GPU API even longer because it supports more platforms.

1. Modern C++ is obviously a huge topic but if I had to describe it in one sentence I'd go for "use smart pointers and containers instead of raw pointers and raw arrays" or "c++ is more than c with classes". If you

Free will never made any sense to me as soon I started to think about such things. Events are either deterministic or random. None of that involves freedom of choice.

This is more of a humor (obviously), but * Blockchain - this is usually the first that comes to mind. * Rust - "hmm, where would I use it now?" is the question you'll ask if you just learned Rust but knew C++ already. * Vulka

OpenGL 4.5 has named objects which makes working with OpenGL feel less archaic. Also 3.3 version doesn't have tessellation shaders. But for some reson OpenGL 3.3 is still being called "a modern OpenGL".

That's good news. I think I've read some time ago that guitar sales have plummeted all over the world because people don't play guitars anymore these days. I hope it was just a phase.

I'm using both Linux and Windows, but what attracts me to Win10 is Direct3D 11 and graphics drivers. On Linux you either have to use OpenGL that feels ancient or Vulkan that is a bit too complex for average-sized projects. D3D11 is an
