Light version of Zero-Byte-BVH here:
skal65535.github.io/BVH/

The idea is to order the triangles as a binary tree by groups of 6 triangles, each group defines a bounding box to test. If hit, recurse both half of the remaining triangles.

from my work buddy, deep
Perhaps unsurprisingly, I have a bunch of Opinions™ on work-life balance and time management. Lately, I've been particularly bugged by the common belief that employer incentives don't align with employee well-being. So, I wrote a thing (with graphs!): thesquareplanet.com/blog/about-4...
