Honestly, my life in startup land is proving to be much more stable than most of my friends working at large established companies that can supposedly afford to think long term.

I’m mostly a digital guy when it comes to guitar, but I’ve gotten a little bit back into the analog stuff and speakers in particular. Been having some fun.

I finally traded in my iPhone 12, haven’t felt compelled to upgrade at any point but the carrier promotion was solid and I was tired of Lightning cables. Five generations seems to be a nice sweet spot for feeling like a worthwhile upgrade.

As I'm coming up on 1000 hours on Hitman World of Assassination, I could really use a new game with the same general vibe. Meaning it's not overly dependent on precision or reaction times, more planning oriented. But not an outright puzzle game. Accepting suggestions.

I am currently fascinated by how every single light in this hospital room (5 by my count) brings its own unique flavor of unpleasant depression.

I’m probably going to buy a new iPhone soon, but I hate that I’m doing it. IMO Apple has made nearly everything about the platform and OS worse to use, and fallen far behind Android’s other capabilities. But I see no way to get an Android without welding my data to Google and I just won’t do it.

Awesome to see GN get over this bullshit abuse by the entirely ethics-free assholes at @bloomberg.com
We're fully operational after battling Bloomberg's illegitimate copyright strike. Here's what we learned about the process from within the YouTube strike system: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y_K...

I've got a new blog post for all of you fine folks! It runs through the additions to D3D12 since it was released, and finishes up with some of the things that have changed for me personally in my code.

Ten Years of D3D12
For those of us that have been using it from the start, it can be hard to believe that Direct3D 12 has been around for nearly ten years now. Windows 10 was released on July 29th 2015, and D3D12 has be...

I wasn’t planning on becoming an Orange fanboy, but this cab is thunder. Kinda makes a mockery of my Marshall 1960 actually. It’s the PPC 212 V, which is loaded with a pair of Celestion *Neo* Creambacks and a very relaxed 44 lbs of total weight.

Rec Room was fun, but had to lay off a lot of folks, so I am looking for the next opportunity.
If you are looking for a senior graphics coder to solve all your rendering problems on any platform, either remote or in the Seattle area, I'd love to hear from you.

The slow realization that Pokémon is much, much bigger today than it ever was in my childhood is absolutely baffling. We considered a phenomenon 20 years ago. I like it, but how strange.

I can’t believe how much I love this cute little Orange guitar amp. Just have it sitting on top of this cheap 1x12 with a Celestion V-Type and it sounds amazing.

Sometimes I reflect on confusing stuff that happened in the past, and it’s years later I realized OH! People who don’t like you will lie about you to authority figures to try and get you in trouble, even when the lies are stupid and easily disproven.
