12 years ago, asking for raylib on official OpenGL forums

12 years ago, asking for raylib on official OpenGL forums

On this day, 12 years ago, I asked on official OpenGL forums for a simple and easy-to-use library to put graphics on screen.

I got no answer so I created #raylib.๐Ÿš€

And now you and #raylib are an inspiration to many, including me!

Oh this is such good timing! I was just tinkering with wgpu + odin to learn how to make a graphics library.

5-panel comic. (1) [teacher with long hair next to whiteboard] TEACHER: Iโ€™m supposed to give you the tools to do good science. (2) [teacher addressing students] But what *are* those tools? Methodology is hard and there are so many ways to get incorrect results. What is the magic ingredient that makes for good science? (3) TEACHER: To figure it out, I ran a regression with all the factors people say are important: [embedded list in sub-panel, cut off at end] Outcome variable: correct scientific results. Predictors: collaboration; skepticism of othersโ€™ claims; questioning your own beliefs; trying to falsify hypotheses; checking citations; statistical rigor; blinded analysis; financial disclosure; open data (4) TEACHER: The regression says two ingredients are the most crucial: 1) genuine curiosity about the answer to a question, and 2) ammonium hydroxide. (5) STUDENT: Wait, why did *ammonia* score so high? How did it even get on the list? LONG HAIR: ...And now youโ€™re doing good science!

SHENZHEN I/O stream where I try to teach some assembly by playing an assembly-inspired game is now up! This is very much an experiment, so please let me know if this format was still entertaining + educational :)

No-engine gamedev using Odin + Raylib Games can be made in many different ways. Many games are made using big, general purpose game engines such as Unity and Godot. I enjoy using the Odin Programming Language combined with Raylib. Odin is...

File Pilot - Next-gen file explorer File Pilot is a file explorer built from scratch for light-speed performance, with a modern and robust interface.

I have completely replaced File Explorer with FilePilot in daily use. That's probably the fastest I've ever permanently switched a bread-and-butter tool like this. FilePilot beta is more polished than most people's finished products :)

An Interview with Zen Chief Architect Mike Clark Zen is one of the most important microarchitectures in the history of the x86 ecosystem.

I recently had the honor of interviewing Zenโ€™s chief architect Mike Clark! I tried to fit in as many microarchitecture questions as I could, including x64 vs ARM ISA power efficiency, 4k vs larger page sizes, 64-byte cache lines, scatter/gather and more:
