testing some more ways of doing webgpu wind line... LOD with WindBorne Systems weathermesh 6 datashow more

okay I think I have made the best webgpu... wind line LOD system I can. continuous adding / subtracting of lines to maintain screen space density rather than discrete LOD levels, morphing when changing wind layersshow more

tiled dynamic LOD wind lines down to three draw calls

threejs globe with satellites, ERA5 wind data, HDRI lighting, etc

making my threejs / webgpu star renderer (planetarium?) more... of a real thing. renders 44 million stars from the gaia star catalog at 120 fps. there's no LOD/culling. every star in frame is drawn. next is adding a nice API for agents to write "tours" that play automaticallyshow more

moving shader controls inside the CRT's ui. built with... threejs / webgpushow more

some volumetric testing in threejs

Okay I’m starting to see the vision more after... doing some more testing with itshow more

prototype of a recursive time helix calendar/history, with nested... coils from centuries -> decades -> years -> days -> hours -> minutes -> seconds. labels need some work but it's the start of something. based almost entirely on Tim Babb 's sketch/idea. in threejs/webgpushow more

started building a webgpu site for displaying longer writing... with shaders but ended up getting distracted by code highlightingshow more

ascii fluid. in threejs / tsl / webgpu

asked codex to download 106 days of hourly high... resolution rapid refresh wind data and make a video where each frame is one snapshot. it made this. (it's upside down. coding agent coordinate system flips are ever-present)show more

Doing 10 x with 40% less 🤯 “Our combined... West and Palantir Systems team is some 10x more effective in multiple ways of measuring than we were just 3 years ago, while also being 30% to 40% smaller than when we began.”show more

working on adding decent bitmap font support to my... crt shader in threejs / webgpushow more

finally got around to combining my threejs / webgpu... fluid shader, ascii shader, and crt shadershow more

The guiding wind and golden bird systems are still... two of the most creative and immersive ways to help players navigate in video games evershow more

basically rebuilt my crt shader so it's doing something... a little more realistic with how the beam hits pixels. added video playback, and terminal mode with a bitmap font. made moire controllable.show more

How do you keep a wind turbine running smoothly?... We climbed atop one with leading wind #energy researchers Wind Energy Institute of Canada to see. 🤳 They’re testing our lubricants for more efficient, reliable wind energy. See how we can help advance this growing industry.show more

raymarched viz of 50 vertical layers of 3km resolution... HRRR smoke data in a 500km x 500km patch of northern california, in threejs 115 days of hourly snapshots, final data is 167x167x50x2761, all shoved into the GPU so there's no streaming after load and seeking is instant.show more

"data stream" rendered in real time with WebGPU a... little teaser demo of what’s possible with the techniques i’ll cover in my upcoming blog postshow more

As many of you know, after 20 years in... journalism and a Pulitzer Prize, I traded my pen for a startup journey. Journalism was about connecting people with info; now, my mission is to connect the world with web data in groundbreaking ways. Next Tuesday, our stealth project emerges, ready to revolutionize data extraction, web automation and testing. More to come!show more
