I think NASA JPL missions are like the cathedrals and pyramids of our time. Some take 2 or 3 generations over many excruciating decades to plan, design, fabricate, test, travel, do the actual science in location, return the results, and study them to plan the followup mission.

The reason I've never been able to use any open source library is that "you only need python, npm, node, yarn, make, ninja and ssh, but only some pecific versions, and then type these things in the command line like it's still the 90s, only they never work, fuck this shit".

I did a comparison of Posit32 vs Float32 numbers. Posit gives such better precision for the same bit size, but is 1.7x slower (I compared software implementations).

I talked to Łukasz | Wookash Podcast about some low level programing, C++, graphics, 3D, shadertoy, VR and many other (sometimes rabdom) things: youtu.be/F1ax1iJTHFs?fe…

I've been giving a serious attempt at using Cursor in a C++ code base. I might still be using it wrong, but I've only managed to get it to write code that compiles and is also actually useful, once every 20 attempts or less. When it does succeed, it's limited to very narrow

A library I'm considering uses Boost for a few basic containers (small_vector, bimap, etc). Because of Boost's non-modular design (every header includes most other headers), build times are ridiculous. I removed the Boost dependency and implemented equivalents to all required
