It's super easy to design using OnShape. Hit me up with private message and I will show you everything you need to model 3D printable parts in under 5 minutes.

The website zombo.com is actually quite relaxing. I spend a few hours each day visiting it.

Is it that hard to: document.querySelectorAll("#some-form input").forEach(e => e.classList.add("error"));

That is common at the moment. Their servers are overloaded due to the wild popularity of ChatGpt and often the session will just "break", erasing any context or learning it had acq…

Do you guys plan on out of the box support Linux with VPE?

Why is this on hackernews right now? It's an old program, closed source, hasn't been updated in ages, and the author abandoned it long ago because he doesn't like people using it t…

I've always though about that fact myself. Can somone find the answer to why didn't the GLSL designers / video card driver people make PI built into their language?

It can be incorporated into a 3D scene as long as you can make a square billboard . You may have problems with clipping that' you need to address manually, but it might be worth it…

With a good phong it's all about the dot products and specular highlight (if you using highlights). Make sure you clamp the dot products and give yourself a minimum ambient light v…

That's very interesting. Thank you for the link. From what I read and see in the images, I gather he's done the same thing I have, as you guessed as well. Obviously he's going much…

I was around and writing OpenGL when we started getting the first programmable cards. Nvidia shot out first with their Cg language, but I held back and waited for the "Orange Book"…

Well first of you get infinite smoothness and better lighting (and reflections if you add them) because there is no underlying geometry. It's just math. It's also much faster, as y…

Lol, wow what a find. You notice the details. I corrected it. Thank you.

Fixed.

I fixed it. Thanks.

Here is a summary I wrote on my attempt to render balls using only a fragment shader. I am pretty happy with the result, and I've included a breakdown of the creation process.
