A fly landed on my monitor, and I chased it off using the mouse pointer!

I remember the day my offspring stopped wanting to be read to. Many years ago, but still a tender spot.

Aside from hair simulation, what other uses do you foresee for compute shaders in Jolt Physics?

These days, I seldom eat potatoes or bread. It's not that I don't like them; I do. In my mind, however, potatoes and bread come out of the same carbohydrate budget as citrus and milk chocolate. Potatoes and bread rarely appeal to me as strongly as citrus and milk chocolate do.

A tomato watch means that conditions are "ripe" for growing tomatoes. A tomato warning means that tomatoes have actually been spotted; immediate action is called for to harvest, cook, and/or consume said produce.

The customary phrase seems to be "all hat no cattle," which applies just as neatly here.

Can you comment on the recently-added compute-shader interface? Is this intended to boost performance, and if so for what workloads?

I've lived in California for 39 years. Generally speaking, I love it. However, I still find the state's tolerance of drunk driving a bit difficult to swallow... calmatters.org/investigatio...

6 takeaways: California’s deadly failure on drunk driving
As DUI fatalities surge, a CalMatters investigation finds state leaders have shown little willingness to address the issue.
