Interactive, immersive and performing code via C++, OpenGL, SuperCollider, live coding w/occasional poetry and photography... I know some other words, too.
Mysterious lights over Brandon, MB tonight were light pillars, a phenomenon seen when ice crystals align horizontally in the calm air like tiny mirrors. It appears the lights are beaming straight up into the sky, but, like many things, it's "all in the eye of the beholder."
The ICLC 2025 (International Conference on Live Coding) website is now live! It will take place in Barcelona at the end of May, and a lot of people are hard at work making it happen. @toplap_bcn

The call for submissions for the International Conference on Live Coding (ICLC) is now: Live! The conference will be held in Barcelona, in May 2025. Besides submissions of papers, performance and workshop proposals, we're also looking for reviewers.

@tvaneerd Rename variables to be clearer and more descriptive.
If some longer expression (e.g with container element accessing, or a chain of struct member accessors) is being used multiple times in a block, replace with a (const when possible) reference to the specific thing.
@parityprime Marking menus have been around for (at least) thirty years; the first time I remember seeing them was in Maya. For more, check out:

@PounceLight @OdaTilset Congratulations @PounceLight on the Tiny Glade demo, it's a beautiful thing, I just want more space to create... Looking forward to the final game/experience.
I just noticed that my English-language books seem to have the spine text upright when the book is lying on its back, whereas Spanish (and French, Catalan) books seem to have it inverted! Does this mean something, culturally? 🤷♂
Or is it another case of North America rebelling against against the European way of doing things...? (except that UK-published English books also seem to go for "upright")
There are a few exceptions, but very few (in my library).
@SebAaltonen Of course I will want Aurora Borealis (I'm from Canada), so I guess we'll have to use some LOD system with a secondary local coordinate system to represent the intricate detail of pine needles (<1mm thick), fine moraine rock (<0.125mm) and mushroom spores (even smaller). ;-)
@lefticus I'm sure you've already come across this, but you should use "matchers" when comparing floating point numbers with Catch.

@jasminezroberts@marknb00@ARstories @skydeas1 @avibarzeev @auradeluxe@debfx@ImmersiveJourno@SkipRizzoVR@melslater True! Unfortunately a lot of pioneering people and projects, especially from those pre-smartphone, pre-web days, aren't really "recorded" in history very well. All we can try to do is access the old grey (and getting greyer) cells from time to time...
