@regameyk Any RX tips on making these kind of VO edits transparently?

@DavePanfilo Regardless of my opinions on the current direction of AI, this apparent water usage argument reads like satire. Haven't heard that one yet.

[Alex Zahn @AlexZahnAudio]

@BrianMndzf Agreed. I find my C background super helpful for approaching problems with an understanding of what the computer is actually doing under the hood.

It's good manners to act surprised when they reveal it is, in fact, the amen break

High level language built on Rust that automatically parallelizes parallelizable code in a thread-safe manner. Big neat. Will he watching this space 👀

RELEASE DAY

After almost 10 years of hard work, tireless research, and a dive deep into the kernels of computer science, I finally realized a dream: running a high-level language on GPUs. And I'm giving it to the world!

Bend compiles modern programming features, including:

- Lambdas with full closure support

- Unrestricted recursion and loops

- Fast object allocations of all kinds

- Folds, ADTs, continuations and much more

To HVM2, a new runtime capable of spreading that workload across 1000's of cores, in a thread-safe, low-overhead fashion. As a result, we finally have a true high-level language that runs natively on GPUs!

Here's a quick demo:

Can anyone recommend a solid resource for learning the fundamentals of #GodotEngine shader language or #GLSL?

is he… y’know… *imitates crab claws*… from maryland???

@BSlickComposer @falloutonprime AHHH YEAH. We watched the first two episodes last night. I feel like they've stayed true to the feeling of the Fallout universe. I am pleased.

@MasonLieberman Look at those freaking flares!

My PR for ubershaders and pipeline pre-compilation for Godot is up as a draft (likely headed for 4.4).

The benefits are immediately apparent when running a game for the first time without a driver cache. Most of the stutters are gone!

Left is the current master, right is my PR.
