Any idea on what technologies/toolkits are used to build Bloomberg terminal?

Slight tangent: I made a similar but simpler project that runs DOOM on a custom RISC-V emulator: https://github.com/lalitshankarch/rvcore

Hi, I didn't follow any specific guide on this, but asked ChatGPT about the bare minimum environment needed to run DOOM. From there, I figured out how to execute the instructions using a switch-case and how to make a custom syscall to trigger rendering.

I made a post a while back that details the entire process: https://www.reddit.com/r/EmuDev/comments/1t1or4j/doom_runs_o...

Great work!

This reminded me of a project I built a while back: a RV32IM emulator in C++ that can boot and run DOOM. Initially I implemented only RV32I, and implementing the M extension provided a massive speedup!

If anyone's curious, here's the source code: https://github.com/lalitshankarch/rvcore

Pretty much yeah

Lights in games use real electricity :)

Leetcode monkeys with little dev experience will do that.

By compression they mean dynamic range compression, which loudens softer sounds so they are more audible.

Pop songs for example, are heavily compressed because "compressed" music sounds "better" on cheap external speakers with bad dynamic range. Kinda like increasing the saturation on a cheap TFT panel.

Just when it was included in S&P500 :(

This is a small EPUB reader I made that uses the system Webview to render EPUB documents!

Not a good idea for someone with memory loss to use an LLM, especially when they are prone to hallucination!

There are some cheap android phones which come with an IR sensor. But the app for such functionality needs to be custom made.

It does work.

Automated builds are here: https://github.com/deevus/zed-windows-builds

Example of an almost instant webpage today: https://www.mcmaster.com/

Because the compiler ends up looking at all the functions anyway, only for the linker to discard them all.

The jokes write themselves!

Enabling FAT LTO reduces the final binary size but it isn't a permanent fix.

Quite likely no, as even grayscale antialiasing is going to look amazing in 4K.

macOS has grayscale antialiasing on by default.

Can someone comment on the effect lcdfilter has?

Seems like full hinting + RGB antialiasing is the way to go on non 4K displays.

Hello! Going through your tutorial and it's been a great ride!

Thanks for the good work.

I am a beginner in graphics programming, and I came across this amazing frame profiler.

This blows my mind. It's so fast and responsive I never expected a WebAssembly application to be!

What are other cross platform (as in cross-GPU) tools other than RenderDoc that can show GPU debug info?

I found Microsoft Pix, but it's not very useful for Vulkan except showing some performance counters.

Honestly, the most welcoming open-source project I found was Blender. They are quite open to criticism, and follow ups are timely.

Only contributed a couple of fixes, but the experience was great overall.

I would like to thank the developers for keeping the codebase maintainable!

It was very approachable for me to fix a few UI bugs a couple of months back.

For me, contributing to a large project feels great, knowing that people will get to run my code (even though the changes are minor).

GPUI works on Windows too now.

Can build Zed from the main branch.

I don't think it's US specific. Have faced a similar situation with the last two budget phones I bought in India.

The 'a' in imgui stands for accessibility.

Sometimes, it's useful to have a quick and dirty GUI toolkit. I think Slint fills that gap.

Apps are available for all platforms, and it's possible to achieve transfer over a LAN connection.
