I like the shape of the lowercase italic 'w'!

Pdf preview doesn't work on GitHub.

Code review __and__ testing.

I don't understand why so many people bring up compilers. The reason we don't have to* read the code of compilers or oss libraries is because the developers who created them have reviewed it to ensure that it works. But if you don't review your own code, who will?

* As long as it works

The comments are horrifying. They do everything they can to avoid reading the code they are responsible for.

You must read the code before shipping it to production.

"But I don't have time!" That's not even an excuse. At least one person in your company should be able to explain the code! How would you answer when reviewer asks why did you use this very algorithm?

"We have tests." They could help. But don't rely on them entirely because there's a high possibility that the tests are wrong.

I can't believe how many people proudly admit that they don't read code. I'm not entirely against using LLMs to write or review code, but not even trying to read it should be prohibited. Someone responsible have to review it.

Edit: I know that LLMs are very good at writing code these days. My point is that this is less a matter of quality and more a matter of responsibility.

Isn't this the most basic function of a video player?

They should have refined the site before launching it. CSS were not loading (fixed), images are not loading (not fixed), meaningless cursor changes, buttons were not working...

Also, it's funny that a site with only one chatbot to have this amazing domain.

It doesn't look like any human has reviewed this.

- Retro torus: wrong z index.

- Wireframe globe: Has wrong projection.

- I, Robot polygons: Looks too different from the actual game.

- Wolfenstein raycaster: wasd moves to wrong direction.

- PS1 affine warp: Shows a glitched plane.

- Utah teapot: Also wrong z index, and what is this?? This must be the worst Utah teapot ever created.

- Glenz vectors: Also wrong projection.

- Penrose tiling: Might a nitpick, but why can I drag to pan? It's not like you can zoom.

- Spaghetti vortex: This says it's from 2026, so not a retro? And the thumbnail shows UI(that I can't interact) only.

It makes me sad to see these projects...

Also the descriptions are too vague. For example, what does "GL workstation · 1993" mean? How about "Metaballs · 1995"? "IRIX · 1994"? I tried to find the original renders but I couldn't.

About forks alone I get it, but look at their issues.

- fstar: 2K issues, stars-issue ratio: 0.6.

- coalton: 700 issues, ratio: 0.4

- carp: 450 issues, ratio: 0.08

- c3: 1.9K issues. ratio: 0.3

Bend has 300 issues for 20K stars so ratio is about 0.02. Maybe their followers starred the repo as a fan activity? It could explain too many stars and too few forks/issues/prs.

Give that Dario is one of the frontiers of LLM development, literally started the LLM race, and have been dominating the market, so he'd be Russia, if we have to use the war analogy.

He took every benefits of being frontiers and now he's kicking the ladder.
