If how they make their games lead to anti-consumer practices then yes, they should alter how they make their games. Should USB-C law not have been created, because it alters how companies make their phones? This logic is inane.
Reflecting on the "stop killing games" conversation. I think folks don't realize that the petition is bigger than what fans want . Fans want a right to repair and for volunteers to be able to tinker and reverse engineer.
But the petition wants developers to alter how they make games

My latest article is about one of my favorite techniques in graphics - Müller's method of Polar Decomposition.
It also details some variations, including one which is ~2x faster to compute with more regular convergence.

I wrote about video game shadow techniques on my blog:
📜 30fps.net/pages/videog...
I've always liked different ways to draw shadows in games. I went and tried to find visually distinct examples and explain their differences. I hope you'll find it inspiring!

How are Kernel Smoothing in statistics, Data-Adaptive Filters in image processing, and Attention in Machine Learning related?
My goal is not to argue who should get credit for what, but to show a progression of closely related ideas over time and across neighboring fields.

I believe comments are important and it's a no-no to accept that programmers won't maintain them (maybe naive but progs should be taught to treat them seriously?).
On an old game I started using _standardized_ FIXME comments to ensure they can be grepped. I still use that technique nowadays.
