When your naked sister turns up in a dream that's normally not a good sign

This the place where you get robbed of your organs

Okay maybe that one shader variable was important after all...

Least complex rust type signature

Oh boy I have to interact with some C++ library code again, please kill me now

I was just hit by this wave of depression. I don't even know why to be honest, but somehow it feels like things aren't going how they should

This sucks man

My imperative dumb ass me trying to code in ocaml:
👁👄👁

Some people say linux is better than windows because it's better suited for development work

Let's be honest: It's not linux, the tools just suck ass

And no I'm totally not frustrated with installing ocaml on windows 🤐

In vulkan we don't say it works we say

and I think that's beautiful

Writing an efficient, modern renderer is truly an exercise of patience. You have a good idea? Hah, fuck you, GPUs don't support that. Okay but what if I try to use this advanced feature? Eh, probably not going to support exactly what you would like to do. Okay fuck it I'm gonna use the most obscure features possible. Congratulations, it doesn't work even on the niche hardware that supports that extension

If I sound jaded, ya better believe I f*cking am! I cannot wait for more graphics cards to support features like mesh shaders so we can finally compute shader all the things and do things the way we want to god dammit

Just finished a little proof of concept of a reprojected multisample antialiasing technique and daaaaamn it's looking good. First time ever a rendering technique I invented isn't complete shit so that's an improvement

It still has some (pretty big) issues with both spatial and temporal ghosting but I have some ideas in the pipeline

I wish I could show you guys comparison images but as it turns out most anti aliasing techniques look pretty good on still frames but only the good ones stand up under motion and I don't know of a good way right now to capture pixel perfect clips like that

Software is such an awe inspiring concept if you really think about it. We literally create our own reality from scratch. Binary for the wrong architecture? Don't worry we can emulate it. Network? Fully software defined. Heck, the servers don't even know if it's real or all in software. You know what? Fuck it! The machine isn't real either! All virtualized or software emulated

I'm really bad at putting things into words but the idea of software truly amazes me

Still having problems with samba doing weird shit. Now looking through the logs and

Hm... *that* doesn't seem right 🤔

Why do SAMBA network drives have to suck this much? Yeah I understand that compiling to a network drive is probably a bad idea just for performance reasons alone but can't you at least not fuck with my git repo?

Man fuuuuuuck, there's nothing more frustrating and scary than fucking up a local git repo. Because you know for a fact you won't be able to restore it

And I even had god damn backups of the .git folder. But reverting leaves me with more files than I started with fuuuck

Okay so I don't really know what I did but somehow my Rust executable that implements a parser for an assembly language all the sudden needs more than a minute to compile and is over 700 MiB in size 🤠

chumsky moment

Nvidia is currently running a competition on their Omniverse platform to win a top of the line RTX card

All you need to do is create a visually impressive raytracing tech demo... which requires a powerful RTX card... to win a powerful RTX card

Thanks guys

Yes! I finally did it, a taskgraph in Rust!

...time to run the compiler and cry 😌

int* foo(); and int& foo();

if you're a

int *foo(); and int &foo();

kinda guy, you're fucking weird. And also wrong

Youtube you alright???

Shoutout to the homies wihout a horrible father figure in their lives. Can't say I'm part of the gang

Maaan, why does Latex have to suck /this/ much. I know it's very powerful and you can do complex layout and typography but COME ON. Surely there has to be a better way

After days of trying I finally got Vulkan to render something and I regret it I absolutely regret it

Sometimes I wish I could focus my dumbassness on something productive

No-code platforms always like to forget that writing the code is *literally* the easiest part of software development 🙄

I am a clever man. I am not a smart man

Everytime I think I'm smarter than the compiler, I'm... absolutely not smarter than the compiler lol

It pains me to say this but MacOS > Windows > Linux
