(Curious) How did Edsger Dijkstra sound like an indian name to you?

Yeah that seems weird. I wouldn't expect it to do that.

Imagine writing GlCreateContext yourself, for starters, as has been done in the link I posted.

Yeah it's quite something. If anyone wants a preview, here's the triangle hello world in vulkan: https://gist.github.com/Overv/7ac07356037592a121225172d7d78f... But the…

Nope, I haven't come across a work that does that. But I also haven't looked in a couple months.

Yes, pictures. It's quite useful. Opening images on remotes for one. Viewing plots arbitrary python scripts create for another. Off the top of my head.

Yeah, lichess does this. On lichess.org/analysis, each move you make adds a history item, lichess.org/analysis#1, #2, and so on. Pretty annoying.

Didn't mean to belittle any 'X' developer. By "what web devs expect", I meant the settings that are usually used for databases in web apps.

Yes, if journal_mode was not sticky, a new process opening the db would not know to look for the wal and shm files and read the unflushed latest data from there. On the other hand, foreign key enforce…

Yeah, better is the filesystem API

It depends on what counter. [ All from my experience on home GPUs, and in lah with 2 nodes with 2 80GB H100 each. Not extensively benchmarked ] Events like kernel launch, which this profiler reads rig…
