Same task, multiple coding agents. Full article, source, prompt: aedm.net/blog/square-...

Please make the F1 key invoke the command palette in every app. We should finally recognize "help" on that key as a failed experiment and a waste of what could have been the most useful function key.

#wgsl is so cool: I can use the same shader source for multiple vertex and fragment shaders and they share data structures.

Trying #leptos for frontend dev these days. Having static types on FE is great, elminates most of the guesswork. I finally know which fields & methods these objects have without trial & error.

First render after rewriting my toy engine from Vulkan to #WebGPU. I'm awestruck, again. Upside down, GUI missing, shadow map bug - but not a black screen. Those were common for me in C++, it tells you how you _can_ use an API, but #rust tells you how you _should_. And #wgpu & #vulkano are awesome.

This is my 3D transformation matrix naming scheme. Just remember the same space should stand on both sides of multiplications and you'll be fine.

I clicked on the "update docker" button and it uninstalled itself. I admire the honesty.

My displacement shader just applies normal mapping on the original surface normals as if no displacement was happening. I was worried about that when I wrote it. Turned out acceptable. Adjusting the gradient is a bit more involved as it needs info about mesh topology in the vertex shader.

A 2x2 Lego brick looks big enough to host two USB-C ports, a small STM32 microcontroller and an RGB led. I'm thinking about an electronics extension to Lego, and connecting blocks to each other could be an easy and fun way to build.
