Dad of the year award goes to the guy sitting in the bus with two small children reading a book, with a construction hearing protection on to have his peace XD

We got Mesh Shaders to work on #wgpu!
https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/7197#issuecomment-3668283192
Mesh pipelines are great for many things such as skinning, LODs, and procedural meshes.

Props to the engineer who is implementing #webgpu support for mesh shaders by himself including the DirectX, Vulkan, and Metal backends.
Currently at 20000+ added lines of code over 9 months if I counted correctly.

Bei der Auftaktveranstaltung der #HightechAgendaDeutschland betonte BM Dr. Karsten Wildberger die Schlüsselrolle der #KI: 🇩🇪 Stärke liegt hier darin, KI mit den Daten aus mittelständischen Industriebetrieben zu nutzen, um sie in die Anwendung zu bringen. Ob #Cloud|lösungen, #Gigfactory|s oder #Datencenter: Wir müssen das alles skalieren, nur dann erhalten wir unsere digitale #Souveränität! @BMDS

My takeaway from math lectures is that the didactic competence is antiproportional to their competence in mathematics. The more they know about mathematics, the more "obvious" steps they skip over when teaching and the more they prefer inner monologue over talking towards the audience. So far […]

I didn't know you could install a custom TTS software on Android. Since EOS only ships with the equivalent of the robotic MS Sam voice, I've replaced it with SherpaTTS, which can fetch voice models from Huggingface. And installed the Glados model :3

The most headache-inducing bugs in my #webassembly plugin for #resonite have been fixed. It's working so well that I decided to make a video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-NQ2PgGRYw
I've added a text-based module asset which lets you write assembly code directly in the game and see it run.

After the splittening, pretty much the only complaint I hear from people about #resonite is the bad IK. Rightfully so. But I think this is a good sign, because almost nobody is complaining about bad performance any more.

I was a bit late to the #resonite block party, but it was nice to see people. Also got to try out blood on the clock tower for the first time, but I think I'll need to try it again at some point since that round was pure chaos :blobcatsweats:
