    "Switching between Borderless and Exclusive Fullscreen no longer requires restarting the game" Afaik GLFW does not support this. So maybe that is part of the motivation for switchi…

    If you are trying out the Citation-X with X-Plane 12, I can really recommend the XChecklist plugin and the checklist file for the Citation-X. To help you with finding all the diffe…

    That probably took a lot more tokens and iteration than normally invested in generating code.

    A Clojure port of XinJingHao’s PPO implementation using libpython-clj2, PyTorch, and Quil. PPO is a reinforcement learning method which has become popular because it addresses the …

    Bad code is usually more costly once you are beyond 100 lines of code.

    My Windows gaming graphics performance dropped by 40% after some update. I already was using Linux for everything else except gaming for many years. So I tried out Steam on Linux a…

    I did a bit of scripting trying to automate the TDD cycle given a task description. The problem is, that the LLM tends to jump forward and submit a full implementation instead of a…

    Yes, the main function is the worst part of the code. Whenever I discover a pattern, I refactor it and put it in a module.

    Yes, I forgot. However Clojure multi methods are more generic in that the function computing the dispatch value can also be defined.

    In the past I have done some rigid body physics in GNU Guile (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBq3kW2jVxs for example). Of course if you need to simulate many objects, you will…

    I use a few macros for creating contexts (i.e. with-texture, with-stencil, with-scissors, with-tar). Also I have macros for rendering (onscreen-render, offscreen-render). However I…

    Implementing array operations basically requires macros and JIT compilation. I have implemented JIT compilation of tensor operations in Scheme using LLVM. Maybe I should redo it in…
