#ImWidgets hack of the day, I décided to move all the styling in a json file, and allow texture and micro procedural gradient description in it. Here some examples, all are pure #DearImGui with my rendering layer on top, compatible with #ImGui test engine too!

This is what I'm talking about: Shows the PVS of a cell on hover in the map editor.

Stuck tooltips on screen from programs stay when you switch to another program. Not just imgui apps I think. Any idea why it happens and why Windows can't handle it?

I’m happy to announce the release of a new open source 3D physics engine called Box3D. I’ve been working on this project for a few years now, but it represents over 20 years of experience writing physics engines for games. Read more here: box2d.org/posts/2026/0...

We're finally bringing our powerful and user friendly CPU profiler to Linux! The beta version is now publically available, and it's free for 60 days during the open beta, so there's really no excuse not to try it out! Just download, extract, optimize. superluminal.eu/applications...

You may have noticed how AI company logos look like buttholes velvetshark.com/ai-company-l... and in Norweigan, "promp" means "fart. So we should call their users "promp engineers", farting out slop.

@martins.ninja Hi, found a bug on line: gist.github.com/mmozeiko/22a... The check should be if (SuspendThread(thread) != (DWORD)-1)

Companies that were stressing about GPL contamination for a couple decades are now happily using generative AI tools that were trained on GPL code.

Where are the police raids of AI companies in the same way they did for ThePirateBay? The difference is the AI companies actually downloaded all the warez, TPB merely provided meta-links.

Updated my Acer Swift 5 laptop to Windows 11 some time ago, then noticed there's no support for the hdmi-ouput anymore... Today when booting, it has no audio device anymore to drive the internal speakers. Is this standard practice by @Acer ? Do I have to install Win10 again?

The Cost of AI alextardif.com/AI.html

Generating AI-slop for hobby programming, is like paying to skip levels in Angry Birds.

Quite often when using tools you don't really get enough information about what system resources it is using. This is something that specially bugs me when using resource heavy apps, so from the next version of Ark VCS it tracks all its resources in real time. #gamedev

YESSS! This is the baseline latency we should expect from a CI pipeline. Nice to see what can be done when you're in control and not github actions or whatever. (The time it takes for the little package icon to turn white or red is the duration my VPS takes to compile and run a trivial c file)

PSA; PowerToys' Grab And Move replaces the old AltDrag tool

Web icloud.com/notes checkboxes are now black squares and doesn't change looks when clicked. (you had one Jobs!) Suggestions for alternatives? Preferably self-hosted.

Old naming: AI generated images. New: Computer-Rendered Artificial Pictures (CRAP)

Another interesting small optimization to SDF brick rendering: I'm already tightly fitting bricks to the surface and doing occlusion culling, but this is another small win on top. If the camera ray intersects the brick at an "inside" point, discard the fragment to avoid ... 1/

This LEGO keyboard makes me wonder...

I fixed collision bugs in raytmx: github.com/luphi/raytmx... I will switch to LDTk instead of Tiled, but from what i saw it has no overlap functions, and it can export to the tmx format too, so I thought I might as well fix this bug either way. any LDTk libs do collision detection?

What did Donkey Kong say when asked who "DK" is? - IDK!

#Windows11 everybody. gives a tooltip when hovering the weather widget that just has the same text as the widget, but covering itself. Also, this shows up in Swedish even though I have Windows set to English, with only my keyboard layout set to Swedish. 30+ years and still wrong.

Prompt engineer? Sloperator!

I just released my video about the engine (and game) I've been working on. The engine is based on dynamic SDFs, and the video describes how it works and what it makes possible. Link in the reply! This is my first YouTube video and it took forever - please repost!
