Mmmm, seems like soft shadows made shader too huge and freeze browser on some machine. As it actually multiply number of rays per 8 (or maybe 8^2 ?...).
I disabled it for now to keep only reflexion/refraction.

I've spent way too much time implementing reflexion and refraction on my #BlochSphere viewer.

I should work on multi #qbits support instead, but.. you know... #raytracing is cool 😎

🎉 Wow, Apple Silicon support in Mojo! Because everyone was just dying to code on GPUs with the grace of a penguin in a tutu. 🐧🩰 Now every Mac user can finally become a GPU programming maestro and revolutionize AI—assuming they can find the motivation after reading this snooze-fest. 😴

🚀 OpenMP GPU Programming in Action! 🚀

We've optimized two applications using OpenMP offloading:

1️⃣ GAMESS - For quantum chemistry computations.
2️⃣ LSMS - Understanding material behavior with dense linear algebra.

Both utilized the "omp target teams distribute parallel" directive for enhanced performance. 🔥

📢 Coming soon: OpenMP 6.0 (mid-November) with new offload features enabling async target region execution! 💡

So, I’m low-key thinking of writing my first-ever graphics-heavy software. (Specifically, to do with VR / UIs, but not gaming.)

Thing is, my experience is with PLT & compilers, distsys, FOSS … but _extremely_ not graphics, GPUs, or single-host performance of pretty much any kind.

I need advice. If I want to learn some relatively-low-level graphics stuff, but I have _zero_ relevant background; where do I start?

Any resources for me (tutorials, books, well-known starter projects?)

(Also, any Mastodon accounts I should follow on this topic? Poke me if you're into this stuff and I'll follow you! :P)
