I'm unfamiliar with the majority of these customization apps as I remain on Windows 10. Are the two apps mentioned (ExplorerPatch and StartAllBack) the most common user tweaking utilities atm?

Since this is on the front page I guess I'll post the resource that the graphics programming industry actually uses (note, I'm an author): https://raytracing.github.io/
It's included in the "Useful Websites" in the article above.
Also note that graphics is large enough that there no longer exists a one-size-fits all solution to learning graphics. If you want to learn graphics I'd recommend finding a mentor.

Oh FFS.
Writing code is like writing natural language.
It's editing that counts. Not the first draft.
Whether or not you should throw out your first draft is in proportion to its value at getting you to the final draft.
Not some axiom you thought of for a specific use-case and specific code base
> For example, if I have a &own T I can reborrow it into a &mut T but not a &pin own T.
From the table can't you do both? Maybe they mean "not a &pin mut T" ?
