in the wake of 3DGS, the Triangle Splatting has made some rounds lately (trianglesplatting.github.io). I quickly toyed a bit with them here: skal65535.github.io/trisoup/index.… => the blending function is a bit too complex to my taste. Maybe use some barycentric coordinates instead?

Although less useful than circumscribed circle, the inscribed circle has -imho- easier equations, esp. w/ barycentric coordinates. See: shadertoy.com/view/tXd3W4 (it came up in trianglesplatting.github.io triangle splatting, where phi(s) needs the inscribed circle. @rvandeghen)

Light version of @PierreTerdiman 's Zero-Byte-BVH here: skal65535.github.io/BVH/ The idea is to order the triangles as a binary tree by groups of 6 triangles, each group defines a bounding box to test. If hit, recurse both half of the remaining triangles. @DaKangz : WebGPU!

reading LLM answers to math problems reminds me of grading bad students' exams: runs in (logical) circles, throw some real knowledge nuggets randomly, doesn't answer the question. But it feels like 'maths'. meh.

Well, at least one domain -sycophancy- where AI already surpassed humans. Does it count toward AGI?

'vibe-coding' is the worst expression coined in 2025 so far. But the night is young...

IA everywhere. Can you spot it (sign) error? Would you fly a plane with IA?

la @CNIL, dans un grand élan de courage, ne va finalement pas faire de procédure simplifiée pour porter plainte contre la securité-passoire de @Xavier75 (piratage de Free). Bien au contraire, c'est la croix et la bannière sur leur site pour déposer plainte! :( Il faut UN mois!!

one thing that triggers me in Rust: assert!(x); i always read mentally "assert( !x )"... ...followed by a "?!?" moment. Using '^' for macros (e.g.) would have removed this mental friction... [as in: 'assert^(x);']
