What an incredible game

Hades II 1.0 as well! Though for me personally, 2023 is still a slightly stronger year.

My first 3D software!

That wouldn't surprise me, or at least Pixel chips haven't improved nearly as much as QC (and definitely not Apple). The Pixels have 50% more RAM than comparable iPhones though.

It's not a regression though, the 10XL is still faster than the 9XL according to Geekbench. Just that Pixels were never near Apple perf, which isn't new.

Your cone solid angle sampling post reminded me of this!

There are a bunch of follow-ups, and the libdivide library to do this at runtime:

Or maybe do precomputation on a CPU and give the values to the GPU for the divisions? Maybe good for finding cells in a uniform grid that is not a power-of-two size.

I don't think this is bad at all. In addition to being well documented, it's well contained. Hacks like these are often necessary, what really becomes problematic is when they're spread all over the place through the codebase and make other code brittle.

Oh this looks great! I've been looking for an easy-to-use C++ library parser.

Yeah, me too. But that still doesn't support their statement that someone is interrupted "every 2 minutes". That's the most extreme assumption - that every message is an interruption. The opposite extreme is that only one single message each day is an interruption. Both extremes are wrong.

By their metric, one 30 minute conversation with 50 messages is the same amount of interruption as a unique message every ~10 minutes throughout the 8 hour workday. In one of these cases you get 7.5 hours of uninterrupted focused work, and in the other you get interrupted every 10 minutes.
