Watch your six! Soon I'll launch STARSPEED: Zero-G Aerial Combat in partnership with WorldLabs.ai 🚀 Multiplayer & campaign inspired by Descent/DOOM w/ a gripping story & synthwave OST 🎹 Here's a peek at the making-of w/ SparkJS + three.js -- early access is days away!

@toji.dev I'm trying to hook up WebGPU on WebXR in three.js using my Galaxy XR. The first frame always comes in with a null XRFame. Is that a known issue? Also, the browser doesn't always show the immersive scene even though I'm producing frames.

New game announcement soon! It'll be desktop/mobile-only at launch for a change, but of course I had to develop a mixed reality "stunt capture app" for it using WebXR 🤷 Check out that process along w/ a sneak peak of my next original title, and keep an eye out for more 🏃‍➡️↗️➡️↘️🛏️

After two days at Meta Connect, where I tried on the new Meta Ray-Ban Display, I visited the Computer History Museum and saw relics like the first mouse and keyboard and the first web server. Just a few decades of steady, incremental progress separate these devices. Play the long game.

Cool to see WebGPU demos on iOS Safari without a flag! This is still beta but should ship widely next week. Considering Apple didn’t ship WebGL 2.0 until like 2021, this is great to see Last barrier to me using it in production is the WebXR-to-WebGPU bindings, which I believe is in proposal phase?

I actually love this b/c it’s only going to demonstrate that even with pro writing, a real production schedule and a legitimate Hollywood budget, this shit is still going to suck

This has been my feeling for a couple years: LLMs are at or near their ceiling for capabilities, and will not improve dramatically from here, for reasons technical, practical, legal and economic. Recent evidence: arxiv.org/abs/2507.19703

The wall confronting large language models

We show that the scaling laws which determine the performance of large language models (LLMs) severely limit their ability to improve the uncertainty of their predictions. As a result, raising their r...
