It works so seamlessly on macOS at 6016x3384. What a delight.

Also a TR1-4 level and cutscene viewer at https://popov72.github.io/TRN2/ .

Interesting that its HDMI is 2.0 and not 2.1. Hopefully it's still possible (for those that really want) to connect modern 4K TVs at 120 hz via the DisplayPort 1.4 output.

I'm using it ocassionally - whenever I have time to do further WebXR development beyond what I've already done, and when an interesting new immersive video or 3D movie becomes avai…

Maybe time passes at a different rate for it, making it an easy "mistake" of not accounting for that for it to make.

I am at Google, but that's probably not relevant since the reason I was curious about this is that my personal website currently implements a git server over HTTPS[1], and git's CL…

What is the current story for serving jj repositories over HTTPS? Git has https://git-scm.com/book/ms/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protoco... . Does jj have something better, equivalen…

https://dmitri.shuralyov.com/ More infrastructure than content, but in principle it’s capable of hosting Go packages, complete with a simple issue tracker and code review system. I…

Also similar to Gerrit's support for stacked changes. [1][2] [1] https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/intro-u... [2] https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/review/git-code…

I’ve noticed something like this while playing the game Hollow Knight: Silksong. Most of the time when I was trying to beat a difficult boss, I wasn’t trying to beat it while it’s …

A difference there is no one's claiming the machines in the factories are going to reach AGI levels of intelligence within some years.

It’ll be interesting to see how quickly this chip becomes available in the MacBook Air and Mac mini. So far those still have the previous M4 only. If it doesn’t happen later this w…

Glad to see that unlike last time with the M4 release, this time they released M5 in more devices than just the iPad Pro at the same time. That said, there’s still room for improve…

A random recent example off the top of my head: view photos in AVIF format. It does work in Photos app, but not in Preview app nor in Messages app somehow. At least this the case o…

The claimed 1.6x increase in video game frame rate compared to M4 seems pretty good. Looking forward to seeing it tested out in practice.

If anyone’s curious to see what a lossless 6016x3384 screenshot of OpenTDD would look like: https://dmitri.shuralyov.com/temp/6K/OpenTTD.png (25.6 MB)

It's a very nicely crafted article. It was quite jarring to see a box containing the following text: > If you open this on a computer instead, you will have a chance to play with s…

Yeah, as one data point, https://staticcheck.dev/docs/checks/#SA4006 has existed since 2017.

The toolchain management added in Go 1.21 sounds related to this. Hopefully you’re already aware of it, but if not, see https://go.dev/blog/toolchain .

To demonstrate some contrast (heh) with another data point from someone closer to the other extreme, I’ve owned a very HDR-capable monitor (the Apple Pro Display XDR) since 2020, s…
