Wow, this is good. I gave it "Configure your pipeline state object with a compute shader that consumes uniforms and vertex buffers." and it came up with this: Note that the compiler will add a compute shader at compile time and require you to configure your pipeline state every time. This is the equivalent on a more traditional GPU where shader compilation occurs between the GPU and CPU. For example if you want to se…

> It's a very compelling illusion of actually understanding the topic. I've seen less coherent responses on Stack Overflow and, dare I say it, Hacker News. I think you've highlighted a very interesting angle. A lot of writings by users on the internet have common grammar mistakes or more like, the apathy towards adhering to correct English grammar.

After arguing and correcting people on the Internets for the past 20 years, the semantics became more urgent than the syntax, and as a result, I often read my own writing in aghast-the realization that when people write tl;dr they really meant it-because as soon as you hit submit the original meaning is lost and with our limited cognitive resources we choose to filter out only what we want to read and ignore the rest. One moment is worth 2, when it's only one second worth 4, when time has a finite amount you should stop reading everything and enjoy yourself. In this way, people stop reading before they know what they're looking at, and they are in the process of filtering out their own words and expressions. "How does this change my reading?," was my initial reaction, and it turned out to very different than how I thought it should change me if people realized the literal meaning of their words. Once people stop reading, they become increasingly interested in the meaning, and so they are not only more engaged in the conversation, but they actually have become more open to their own words and expressions.
