Another large speedup to SDF brick rendering (-20-40%) that... is obvious in hindsight: When baking bricks, calculate the texel bounds that actually contain the surface, and then rasterize/ray-march just those bounds rather than the full brick bounds. 1/show more

Sparse allocation/rendering of SDF bricks is now working! The... pipeline is fully GPU-driven - a series of compute shaders that manages brick allocation/baking in a 3D texture atlas, followed by draw-indirect for rendering. Still a lot more work to do, including automatic LOD.show more

Here is Jaxson Dart, earlier this season, spearing a... LB in the head on the sideline. That is a cheap shot, not hitting a QB that is still in bounds. It's pretty simple: if you don't want to get hit, then go out of bounds. If you want the benefit of the doubt a step from the sideline, then don't headhunt a LB that is giving you a path out of bounds.show more

🎺 The Gabriel's Horn also known as the Torricelli's... Trumpet is a mind bending geometric paradox where an infinitely long shape encloses a strictly finite volume with an infinitely large surface area. The reason for the juxtaposition lies in the different mathematical rules used to calculate 3D volumes vs 2D surface areas when dealing with exponential quantities to infinity. As the horn stretches out infinitely, its opening gets so narrow that it becomes smaller than the width of a single atom. But the paradox exists only in theoretical math, in the physical world an enclosed volume is proportional to the surface that bounds it. 🔗show more

Look at #27 from the Cardinals who recovered the... Dallas fumble He stepped out of bounds and then back in to recover the ball. That’s an illegal touch How did the refs miss that?? How is that not reviewableshow more

Jaylen Wright.... You've got one of the best open... field blocking linemen in the NFL keeping pace with you 20 yards downfield. Just show a little awareness here to gear down and let Brewer add to his highlight reel rather than taking on a hit that is almost certainly going to take you out of bounds.show more

Got the BVH (AABB tree) working with a nice... visualization. (The circles and arrows show the hierarchy of the tree.) This is all CPU-side for now, so next is to ship the BVH to the GPU for accelerating SDF brick baking. It's already in a flat buffer so that is straightforward.show more

👑 Consumed by money and greed that knows no... bounds. He sees himself as a god, above the law, and consequences. You might just recognize him... It is Sam Dogman - Fried, also known as SDF 👀 Taking mercilessly from the poor, trampling all in his path... Will a hero rise? 🏹show more

This is why watching raw game film is important,... instead of just watching highlights So we don't over-hype a prospect & can make more accurate evals This was all just in the first 7 mins of the game - vs a mid major team: -Loses ball out of bounds on a drive -Misses a box out, his man then gets offensive rebound & scores -Turns it over again, resulting in Abilene Christian layup He's a very good prospect but watching the raw game film rather than just the highlights is key 🤝show more

This video show the network requests that Twitter is... currently making when I attempt to view a tweet. Just gonna go out on a limb here and speculate that maybe the actual problem is Twitter trying to refresh itself 20 times every second, rather than "scraping".show more

Another really good drill here to help with the... 40 start. Loading / weighting correctly in deep shin angles is a skill that needs trained in ways other than actually accelerating. Good for all sports that test linear speed, not just football.show more

A brick? What am I going to do? Mini... pieces of art and history that l'm making with casting molds. Each one's a copy of a stonewall brick with my artwork on it, inspired by the Stonewall legacy and our communities resilience. The plan? Drop them around NYC - hide them in corners, parks, random spots - kinda like a city-wide treasure hunt. Each brick tells a story, sparks convo, and hopefully makes someone stop and feel something. I'll also be selling these so you don't need to be in nyc looking for these to get one of your own! But I don't wanna do this alone. I'm tryna team up with powerful voices - brands, orgs, people who care - to make this bigger than just art. I want these bricks to raise awareness, represent the community, and be a reminder that our history is everywhere - not just in museums. Let's make noise. Let's make people look. Let's build something real. One brick at a time One story at a time One city at a time If you're down to collab or know someone who might be, hit me up! Bricks dropping soon More soon...show more

"Hello. I am Dave Portnoy and I think Jew... jokes need to stop and are out of bounds. That being said, it is still okay for me to say the N word and make jokes about r*pe because I think it's funny and that's just what I do." Dave Portnoy is a clown and a pawn with no control over his decisions or his own business. He is nothing more than a mindless and spineless puppet.show more

Today we introduced two major graphical enhancements: advanced upscaling... & ray-traced shadows. Upscaling is an innovative graphics technique that boosts game performance by rendering at a lower resolution and intelligently enhancing the image quality to match your display's native resolution. Ray-traced shadows offer unparalleled accuracy in shadow rendering. Read the full Dev Blog here: #EVEOnline #Tweetfleetshow more

Another brick added to Broccoli's house! 🏡 The Broccoli... community extends its appreciation to PancakeSwap for whitelisting our official $BROCCOLI contract address!

We are grateful for the support and look forward on building! This is just the beginning! 🚀🥦 #BuildAndBuild #BuildOnBNB #KeepBuildingshow more

Added "corner radius" / rounding, which is easy to... apply to any SDF shape that has an exact (outer) distance function - just subtract the radius from the scale and then offset the computed distance by the same radius. So you get rounded shapes "for free" with 1 subtraction. 1/show more

🚨 Breaking | Operations Command of the Syrian Arab... Army: We announce the destruction of Target Site No. 12, which was previously published on the broadcast and platforms of Syrian Al-Ikhbariya. It is confirmed that this site was a large ammunition depot belonging to the terrorist PKK militias and the terrorist SDF militias. The so-called “Internal Security Forces affiliated with SDF” in the city of Aleppo issued a lengthy statement claiming that the targeted site was a hospital. In reality, the targeted site is not a hospital, but rather a large ammunition warehouse belonging to the terrorist PKK militias and the terrorist SDF militias, which has been destroyed, and explosions are still continuing at the site as of now. We affirm that the Syrian Arab Army opened humanitarian corridors, extended deadlines multiple times, and published these maps solely to protect civilians and ensure their safety — not the opposite. Meanwhile, the terrorist PKK militias and the terrorist SDF militias continue targeting, killing, and injuring our people in the city of Aleppo. Note: You have been provided with another video published moments ago by a resident of Sheikh Maqsoud showing the ongoing explosions at this ammunition depot. #Syria #Aleppo #PKK #SDFshow more

At some point when reviewing plays, the league should... consider adding a speed threshold for anything involving the element of time. When you slow plays down to 1/100th the speed, it distorts what actually happened and makes it look like, in this case, Cooks possessed the ball for seconds prior to losing it. The game is not played in slow motion or frame by frame. For a catch: A) Secure control of the ball ✅ B) Two feet down in bounds ✅ C) After (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, clearly performs any act common to the game (e.g., extend the ball forward, take an additional step, tuck the ball away and turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so. C is where there is a judgement needed since A and B are clearly met. Now consider this note to the rule: If a player, who satisfied (a) and (b), but has not satisfied (c), contacts the ground and loses control of the ball, it is an incomplete pass if the ball hits the ground before he regains control, or if he regains control out of bounds. Because Cooks did lose control of the ball when he contacted the ground and the ball never contacted the ground, it was ruled an interception by Denver.show more
