Can't thank Sascha willems enough for the goldmine that is Vulkan samples/examples. Hands down the best tutorial for Vulkan.

Back from twitter after more than a month, and damn I didn't grasp how bad my feed was. The topics I followed, or liked were never suggested, all there were those 100k likes tweets. The twitter algo is dead

Computer graphics community must be so weird to outsiders. Everybody is just posting literally the same image of the same scene, and everyone else is congratulating them

The spacex hate here is crazy ngl. I don't like musk either, but you can't just be happy for some spacex launch failure. The tech is really good and has been doing innovations faster than other corps/govt agencies and I'm all in for it.
Don't turn bsky into another echo chamber

GPU Zen 3 is out!

I want to draw attention to the 96(!) page article I was a small part of detailing all the work from tooth-to-tail we put into making ray tracing a reality in Cyberpunk 2077. It is exhaustive and should be a reference for anyone looking to make RTX a reality in their own engines.

Graphics is pure evil. I have been trying to fix a texture not loading onto the screen for hours to no avail. It just doesn't render, even shows up in renderdoc and I have no freaking idea.

Mastadon is an objectively better platform than bsky but is divided by different servers. There is something janky about this like slow scrolling, slow opening times etc tho still better than twitter

I need to leave twitter for good. It's an annoying platform filled with midwit and political tweets. The only reason I'm on SM is to learn, not fight for things that don't even affect me
