When I first moved to Australia, I felt weird about the "no tipping" culture here. Now, after 4 years, I've done a full 180. It feels weird when I go home and am asked to "optionally" subsidize low wages and pretend it's a form of enticement for better service (even if there isn't any service).
Replaced is suuuper stylish! The combination of pixel/voxel aesthetic with heavy atmospherics and a cinematic camera is really nice. Character controls/animation have a satisfying weightiness to them as well (reminds me a bit of Flashback). I recommend giving the demo a go!
AI execs keep giving advice that young programmers should focus on AI instead of doing internships, etc. this is abominable advice, for many reasons. I’m going to focus on two:
3D Phi spiral with golden cubes.
Star spiral rose progression.
Ornamental knots created through trigonometric parameterization.
Edwards-venn diagram.
Introduction.
Since 2014 I've been using Excel to create math art. Post-processing in Krita.
Spent some time trying to do conservative culling of geometry for distance function evaluation. Turns out I ended up reinventing something like GJK (which I really have no clue about or experience with) with exact bounds.
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.
(And yes it's really been 10 years 👴).

Dissecting the NVIDIA Blackwell Architecture with Microbenchmarks arxiv.org/pdf/2507.10789
Ok so when Microsoft was making the first Xbox I was doing Flash ads for them and they had an 800 page brand standards binder and when I used a green that was, and I quote, 6% off, I got my ass chewed out. Fucking losers now. Have some goddamn self respect.
Here's a sneak peek at the new camera coming soon to LiquiGen! Zoom and orbit to point of interest, get up close with your scene!
Another 🧵 on (almost) everything (interesting) about evaluating distances and closest points to quadratic Bezier curves
Improvised a marble elevator with some lego technique and regular legos, for a lego duplos marble run we had around.
You forgot the “t” 😄

And that’s my point exactly, it’s a division about something so trivial in the grand scheme of things. Which of course is not to say that autistic people have a trivial time with their own struggles, that’s a separate topic.
Assuming “allium” is just a mistake, I am not even convinced it’s quite as important to find the causes than it is to harbour a society that accepts mostly harmless differences amongst its population.

This means someone who earns min wage in Brazil needs to work 3 months without spending a cent to buy a Switch 2.
Without any games.
Tried setting up some hardcore viscosity test cases earlier. Non-dimensionalized viscosity is roughly 20,000, for those who know what that implies, using 3 substeps (so roughly 6500 per substep)
Convergence for the implicit solver isn't perfect. I need more time to tune it.

I will be heading to GDC this year! I am extremely excited to chat with everyone, and this is also my first GDC ever!

I posted a few days ago the shader ISA code for the atan2() instruction, the size of which appeared to catch people by surprise. This inspired me to write a blog post to discuss the “hidden” cost of shader instructions a bit more. interplayoflight.wordpress.com/2025/01/19/t...
