Do you think that if Mozilla ran a similar campaign it would see more success? Somehow I don't think so.

Also, Vulkan is going to support extensions like OpenGL did which fragmented the hell out of OpenGL. Nvidia is already beginning the lock in and fragmentation process by making Vul…

Or it can be a very nice object based API instead of a state based API that made sense in 1992 as the slide deck said and certainly didn't make any sense in 2008 when the industry …
