Today's updates to the raycasting engine.
I can change the color of the blocks (and load/save the map).
Biggest difference today is that the POV of the player is rendered on the right side in the pseudo '3D' that these engines typically produce.
Using my barycentric coordinates to implement vertex color interpretation.
I can use the same alpha, beta, and gamma values for depth buffer calculations, so I can have good looking intersecting triangles.

Due to the impending shutdown of my old server, I'm moving here from my account @deoxys314@neovibe.app. And so a new #Introduction is in order! I'm a software developer with a degree in #Geology and #GIS. I mostly work in #Python and #CPlusPlus. My personal interests include #Dinosaurs (#Stegosaurus is my favorite), #LEGO, #mtg, #MagicTheGathering, #Math, #cooking and #Reading, to name a few.
I have some old posts I'll bring over here, mostly longer threads that are worth preserving.
Today I learned two important lessons. One of the lessons is that sometimes changing 1 line of code can take 5 hours.
The other lesson is enclosed in the following PR:
I bit the bullet and added face sorting so that I can do convex objects. It's not super clever, but it will draw all camera facing triangles in Z-order. This means that triangles at the back will be overwritten by ones at the front.
Here's the model in blender.
#284 Given the following in C++
template <typename... T>
void f1(T......); // A
template <typename... T>
void f2(T..., ...); // B
Without checking, which is valid:
A. A
B. B
C. Both
D. Show results
Was writing C++ code that deals with very large files in memory. Sometimes the files in question are larger than physical memory. I wrote my C++ code to catch memory allocation failures and terminate gracefully,
But that is not what happens. On modern Unixes, the kernel's OOM (out-of-memory) process will kill a process to terminate it before the process itself gets a a chance to terminate gracefully.
How do folks deal with this?

"profiles are very easy to sell. They reassure people who don’t care about safety that they don’t have to, and they reassure everyone else that there is a path forward. And we can blame users or implementers when it ultimately fails to have a meaningful impact"
Sneak peak of upcoming C++ code coverage reports in #Doxide, featuring an interactive sunburst chart (using #ApacheECharts), sortable tables (using #tablesort and Material for #MkDocs), and annotated source code listings. These interactive reports let you drill down into areas where further testing may be warranted. #opensource #cplusplus #cpp
TIL: zero size types take up no space in the calling conventions for x86_64.
Hence tag dispatch is totally invisible, not taking up any of the useful calling registers or padding out the stack space. This is not the case for armv8, these tags take space.

So I think that means that it is preferable to do tag dispatch as the last argument of a function. The idea is not to waste useful registers. Is that a good take?
Hardened libc++ is a practical and effective way to enhance the safety, reliability, and debuggability of C++ code with minimal overhead

Update to my Truchet mode on my RGB matrix art panel.
I pick a random tile every half second and rotate it in a random direction 90 degrees.
I like how this feels like something complex and intentional is going on behind the scenes.

Whatever you do don't supply a custom comparator to std::sort that can be true for compare(a, b) and compare(b, a) simultaneously: it starts making up entries and then blows up
