Me at work all day, basically:

@SebAaltonen I know you'd looked at Slang a while back for similar reasons-- wanted to note that we now have WebGPU / WGSL support (you can try it live at https://t.co/yDygUPpeXu )

@FlohOfWoe @SebAaltonen @DaKangz Looking at the commit history on it, I think it was probably added for use from Chrome and/or Skia, which might go some way to explaining user-facing docs being a bit scanty.

@SebAaltonen Hey @DaKangz , anyone ANGLE-y still around on Twitter who might be able to help here?

[Shannon Woods 💚🎮🦡📱 @ShannonIn3D]

@SebAaltonen Chiming in here alongside @csyonghe -- we have started work on direct output of WGSL, and expect the first pieces to start landing soon. I'm interested in hearing about specific feature needs & timeline if you're willing to share (I am slang's program manager at NV).

WebGPU in Chromium 113, excited for the web and great to see this ship to stable!

@KendraWrites I used to have that problem except with Timothy Leary and Tom Lehr.

Welp.

@AdamdelCano @WheeBonnieLass @UrsulaV Later in the thread it's stated that it's only main branch that's read only, and development continues on branches. Beyond that, read-only doesn't stop anyone from drafting local changes, you just can't push upstream.

@pati_gallardo For me, flavors have sounds or pitches. I don't *hear* them, but I think "ah, yes, that's a very high-pitched flavor" or "this porter has a lot of bass". I sometimes describe flavors to other people this way but I don't think I really ever expected others to get it, I think?

that was fast

@maggiekb1 I have no idea how one goes about grating American cheese.

What's your "soloing the school group project" style?

-> Go off and do all the work on your own, turn it in for everyone? Engineer
-> Wing it and ace the presentation on force of personality? Product manager
-> Coax each person to do *something*, finesse it into coherence? TPM

@basisspace It's honey-flavored candy, what's not to like??

[Shannon Woods 💚🎮🦡📱 @ShannonIn3D]

Candy corn is good, actually.

@ai_metal_bot If someone does not make some power metal cheese with death vocals sped up like chipmunks, i am disappointed in the internet as a whole.

Had not heard Catherine Wheel's cover of "Wish You Were Here" until tonight, and I'm glad that has been remedied now.

@sheredom Thanks for this rec, enjoying it!
