Watching a movie written by Lev Grossman and... oh, hey, look, it's an Austin Grossman cameo. Weird choice, but okay. Hey, waitaminute...

This is actually the 7th person confirmed infected from one measles flier. Measles is one of the most contagious diseases that exists, and a lot of people in North America have it right now. People can be contagious days before developing any symptoms, and it can be spread simply through breathing.

I know everyone is loving the Musk schadenfreude but we have to stay on the alert for the possibility that Musk is going to turn his sights to those centrist dem conventions going on and further entrench transphobia and anti-immigrant sentiment. And they would easily work with him.

"The process of coding with an “agentic” LLM appears to be the process of carefully distilling all the worst parts of code review, and removing and discarding all of its benefits." Very insightful post on #GenAI by Glyph I Think I’m Done Thinking About genAI For Now

Part 2 of "Problem Solving of Filmmaking" by ponysmasher (David F. Sandberg). IMO nothing can touch the greatness of part 1, but still interesting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2nX...

Jonathan Joss’ murder is not the news it should be. Happy pride, I guess. It hurts that he wasn’t invited on a king of hill panel and stood up anyway to speak, informing the show runners and the audience that he was in big trouble (the very situation that killed him.) Days later, dead. Just sayin.

For various temporary health reasons (no call for alarm), I haven't actually gotten to start on either of these things. I need to reorg my music room AND set up a Win11 gaming machine so Steam starts working again. So, not yet, but guitar pedals I bought but have never used, I'm coming for you.

So glad to have migrated from one social media site that has bugs in the little number by the notification icon to another social media site that has different bugs in the little number by the notification icon.

I just spent so long trying to figure out why I couldn't find a sensible algorithm or formula to solve a problem, all because OpenGL GLSL drivers don't warn about a comma operator with no side-effect: (max(weight.x,weight.y),max(weight.z,weight.w)) I left out the 'max' at the beginning

Odds that the 2028 Democratic presidential candidate campaigns on restoring all the federal programs that Trump/Musk destroyed?

BTW... I'm not suddenly posting random graphics ideas and OpenGL now and not previously because I was forbidden from doing those things at Epic. I'm posting because I'm actively writing graphics code again and having throughts and opinions, which I wasn't really doing while I was at Epic.

Back on this bandwagon: Abandoning OpenGL Immediate Mode was a huge mistake. It hurt education, it broke thousands of existing tutorials, and the performance overhead of Immediate Mode--even a lower-performance-than-tradition implementation in a driver--is irrelevant to e.g. indie game developers.

This is Tim 11 months ago. Generative AI will make it possible for two people to make Breath of the Wild, but also games will become so complex they'll actually require hundreds of people to make. Please don't think about what these two views imply about the economics of the situation.

God, have any of these "dark mode" whiners ever read a book? They just want to send us back to the dark ages. What? See, books have white pages, so I guess reading a book would blind them. Also "dark ages" has the word "dark". Look, I'm not a professional racist comedian used to dunking on kids.

Oh hey, some of this is old news but that I had never heard. Remember that CEO who in 2015 lowered his salary to $70K and raised all of his employees to $70K also. Apparently, that was a scam, his company was a scam, and the guy is total scum. www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6AT...

Currently my favorite distraction on TikTok is this man who is CLEARLY in like, THE BEST shape, finding things that other athletes can do (and often the things they're doing are typically femme) and seeing if he also can do that With the "assistance" of the best dog named Dootie I love this
