This opens up a lot of options for us on internal projects.18 May 2026 18:16 +0000at://did:plc:5e3ahd5skyvcmtsaa3qbvimi/app.bsky.feed.post/3mm5iceb46s2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/liamegan.bsky.social/post/3mlo5bbehec2vI've wanted to make this for quite some time; a WebGPU sand simulator using compute shaders and persistent states (none of the messy WebGL texture workarounds). it turned out to be surprisingly solid (even if there *are* some funny limitations like sand sitting on water).12 May 2026 15:49 +0000at://did:plc:5e3ahd5skyvcmtsaa3qbvimi/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlo5bbehec2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/liamegan.bsky.social/post/3mlbfaosthc2l07 May 2026 14:07 +0000at://did:plc:5e3ahd5skyvcmtsaa3qbvimi/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlbfaosthc2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/liamegan.bsky.social/post/3mk6dyn7b7s2223 Apr 2026 15:41 +0000at://did:plc:5e3ahd5skyvcmtsaa3qbvimi/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk6dyn7b7s22https://bsky.app/profile/liamegan.bsky.social/post/3mjnwmfdfgs2jI've been reading Shadow & Claw by Gene Wolf, and I'm struggling with it. It feels almost like Canterbury Tales if it were written by Tarantino, which should be amazing, but I'm just having difficulty finding the motivation to pick it up every day.17 Apr 2026 02:59 +0000at://did:plc:5e3ahd5skyvcmtsaa3qbvimi/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjnwmfdfgs2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/liamegan.bsky.social/post/3mjcdjvwmhk25So much of the online AI discourse just sounds like performative rationalization.
