gnerkus··on Ask HN: What is your new year's resolution?
Sort of.

1. I want to start with working through applying shaders to a 3d scene using the Panda3d library (https://github.com/panda3d/panda3d) . This repo covers that: https://github.com/lettier/3d-game-shaders-for-beginners.

2. Create a simple, custom, graphics-only (no collisions / physics) game engine using Entt (https://github.com/skypjack/entt) and Panda3d. The engine would rely mostly on simple inputs, like mouse clicks, and 3d graphics.

3. Configure clangd to error on features outside C++11 then refactor both projects (1 & 2) to use C++ 11.

4. Run experiments on the game engine while working through the Vulkan book: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Overv/VulkanTutorial/maste...

You can combine "play more video games" and "learn a bit of Japanese" into "play more video games in Japanese only"!

It helps you practice listening to and reading Japanese.

I'm not really sure what 'access to electricity' actually means.

Would it still count as access if the electricity was only available for an hour a day on average? Or would it count if said access comes mostly from privately-owned diesel generators?

If the answer is 'yes' to either question then those numbers are quite accurate.
