Since we first announced it last year, our Vulkan wrapper KDGpu has been busy evolving to meet customer needs and our own. Our last post announced the public release of v0.1.0, and version 0.5.0 is available today. It’s never been easier to interact with modern graphics technologies, enabling you to focus on the big picture...
I just want to build requests and read the responses, why the hell does everyone suddenly want me to make an account?
New language promises to reduce compilation times by using all threads and gpu cores available on your machine. What's your opinions on it so far?
A while back, I created a repository for all the C/Cpp projects I’ve worked on, ones I’m still creating, or projects I’ve really liked from other people (including their licenses and credits). It’s essentially a big collection of C++ projects you can browse or use....
Traditionally, algorithms for counting distinct items in a stream of data would store all the items. A new algorithm, called CVM, uses randomization to estimate the number of distinct items with minimal memory usage. The trick is to keep track of items by recording them and then randomly deleting some. The probability of an item...

"Programming: Principles and Practice using C++ (3rd Edition)", aka PPP3, is an introduction to programming for people who have never programmed before. It will also be useful for people who have programmed a bit and want to improve their style and technique - or simply learn modern C++. It is designed for classroom use, but...
I have forge accounts from three respective sites: GitHub, GitLab and Codeberg. In all of these forges, I've opted to use secret e-mail. The reason for this is that when I had my original e-mail, I was spam-bombed job roles by a company from Shanghai within the Linux foundation, called Zilliz. Apparently, they extracted emails...
The Khronos® Group, an open consortium of industry-leading companies creating advanced interoperability standards, announces the immediate availability of the OpenXR™ 1.1 specification. This release evolves the widely adopted OpenXR open API standard for high-performance, cross-platform access to VR, AR, and mixed reality...
By project, I am talking about a "virtual" instance. I get to use a computer on their server, but how? Are those virtual machines, or containers?...
I saw the video for C23 by ACCU, and I couldn't help but feel that C2x has gotten a bit stricter than what I had learnt. Since this is based on my intuition, and that is not reflective of the reality, I was wondering if modern versions of the language post C99 is a little bit strongly-typed?
This is a small program I've come up with, with the intention of finding the root of a perfect square. I wanted some comments on the performance impact, as well as the use of resources....
Here's the program:...
While the task of writing a brand new standard-compliant browser engine is infamous as being almost unachievable nowadays (and certainly so with Chromium coming in at 31 million lines of code), the Rust ecosystem has been brewing up a new web rendering engine called Servo. Initially created by Mozilla in 2012, Servo is still...
