This mess is a stress test of Bevy 0.19 with 2,000,000 instances of 100,000 separate meshes. Runs at 60 FPS on my laptop. Each of the 2M mesh instances is a separate entity. There's no special "instanced mesh" component needed; the GPU driven rendering does all the batching automatically.
In my fave 2026 Joe Rogan redemption arc he joins the entire cabinet in a legal ibogaine + mdma driven book club led by the pope where they read the will to change, my grandmothers hands and all about love, followed by utterly repentant mass resignation letters, weeping and dissolution of the church

Ethan Mollick@emollick.bsky.social · 4mo agoMy most popular Sora video was “elaborate regency romance where everyone is wearing a live duck for a hat (each duck is also wearing a hat), a llama plays a flute, prestige drama” I am not sure why OpenAI has decided their compute has more valuable uses & is discontinuing Sora.

PSA: by default, Claude Code deletes sessions from its local history after 30 days. To increase this period: add the property `cleanupPeriodDays` to `~/.claude/settings.json` with the integer value of your choice. I set mine to 36,500 — which will probably suffice.
