A huge milestone: Fearless SIMD 1.0 is published: linebender.org/blog/fearles.... This was a real collaboration, thanks especially to Sergey Davidoff for pushing this over the line, Laurenz Stampfl, Andrew Jakubowicz, valadaptive, Benjamin Saunders, and Daniel McNab.

thinking about Warren Buffett's School of thought on market efficiency if the market must improve efficiency to grow, where does that efficiency come from?

this is like The Game, but instead of going "ah dang it I lost" you go "oh, we're still platforming Nazis..."

burdock @ns.agency · 14/09/2026

I can see how that might happen

I've cancelled claude. Astra is leagues better than fable and deepseek flash is leagues better than opus.

so I bought a PS3, bought many games for it, both online and single player. lost online, now they delete my account, and I lose access to everything because I didn't spend MORE of my money on their other hardware? and I have no legal way to play games I bought and paid for? noted :) #fucksony

the battery is a static value, and the "gain knob" here is used as an inverter on the battery, which leads into the "clamp" which uses that value's min and max -- bc angular velocity can be +/- and _that_ leads to the "attenuator" which is just division for velocity / max velocity, to give you a %

if anyone's curious what the symbols are: G is for the GHK algorithm, to turn (input) events into interpolated samples. Then we take the G(x) and G(y) and turn it into a polar coord, then the circle-y boi next to it is "angular velocity" which spits out radians/s, then low-pass to block some bs

burdock @ns.agency · 10/09/2026

ok, but what if we slapped a low pass filter in front of the joystick's angular velocity, clamped it to ~160 RPM, mapped that to the frequency of a sine wave, and then output _that_ to the speaker? that would be a pretty cool tech demo #rust #bevy #gamedev

burdock @ns.agency · 09/09/2026

tech demo: left joystick events are interpreted as a discrete signal, which controls the frequency (x) and volume (y) of a sine wave little clicks heard near are because there's no interpolation on inputs while we only have 7 bit joystick axis data :^) #rust #bevy #gamedev

I really loved LittleBigPlanet, but wished there was more we could do with analog logic :3

burdock @ns.agency · 09/09/2026

owo mvp lfo sin wav out via dsp mcu i/o~ mul and add ops for lfo ctl too! ok I'll stop the 3 letter bit now -- weeks of effort are paying off! we can hook a bunch of basic chips together and get a signal out! next time I'll record the audio output too :3 #rust #bevy #gamedev #pixelart #dsp

We should be more brave on saying "Atmosphere Account" regardless of people understand it or not. Just like Fediverse bros did. Atproto can't be a common thing if people are too afraid to say it.

I would like to hear more

teledildonics 👍

getting people to understand that authentication happens _at your PDS_ is certainly a challenge. I've been using "atproto account", but it doesn't quite roll off the tongue 😅

hey, what the fuck

do you feel like you're getting good use out of the "diy DSL" powers? that's the part that intrigues me the most ^^

this is kinda so hype ngl I didn't realize there was so much that needed to go into all the routing logic for the UI/UX, but I think I've got most of the kinks worked out x.x that microchip has a closure wired up to it, and the wire colors indicate "types" in a sense ^^ #rust #bevy #gamedev

how are you liking fennel so far? I've considered similar lisp-y tech in my games, but didn't want to commit to Lua 😅

this is how I found out I have astra thx byeee

the first microchip is looking kinda pretty I think I'm gonna want like a 6x6 icon and some bottom-text so that you know what microchip does what #bevy #gamedev #rust
