A huge audience is missing out learning to do these things themselves, so my plug is we're running an indie conference [0] with Kaze as the featured speaker.
We should follow in his footsteps.
It's alot of cool work, but the way he presents it to laymen is kind of annoying. Even if he had never heard of data orientated design in the original video series (where he claims to not know what its called when you organise data to improve throughput) he should by now because clearly he does huge amounts of research. (Case in point at 9:30[0] he talks about localised memory patterns as though he's the first to come up with it).
Again, love his work, watch every video and even submit to HN because I think others would. But that doesn't mean he's not very annoying.
This seems like an uncharitable interpretation to me. When he says "I'm not sure if anyone else has ever used this approach," it's pretty clear from context that the "approach" he's referring to is interleaving the sine and cosine tables to improve cache usage. And he doesn't even claim to be the first to come up with it, just to have independently discovered it.
If you look at previous HN threads on his content many have similar complaints.
Every one loves the content and premise of revisiting SM64.
Many don't like the presentation.
If anything I think I'm being charitable assuming it's optimized for the lay public.
