Alright computer graphics twitter, here's likely the best full-course, intuitive introductory explainer on the core of modern ray-traced rendering techniques I've ever seen, and it has pitifully few views for its quality.

How Ray Tracing (Modern CGI) Works And How To Do It 600x Faster

In which we explore ray tracing, the reason modern CGI can look so convincing, and ReSTIR, a recent technique that allows images (and particularly animations...

Musings about developing in Rust: When people start in Rust, they often get into 'fights' with the borrow checker. This can be a source of much frustration, especially for experienced devs who try to use patterns they know from other languages which give them lots of headaches.

Today I spent time optimizing my path tracer for "low quality" rendering so that I can do iterative refinement of scenes. The image on the left below now renders in ~8 seconds rather than 45+. The image on right is a high quality version that took about 10 minutes.

This is super true and valuable, just wanted to add a bit of context from a technical standpoint: In terms of actual physical phenomena, hue variations come from three very different places and thus you have different "kinds" of hue variation (though they often interplay!) (1/?)

When I’m asked about how I choose my colors, I always push the idea of straying from neutral colors!!! Locking urself to those base skin tones can make ur portraits look flat, throwing in a lot of subtle hue variations can do so much for adding life into your subject matter!

Instead, you realize is that getting into 'fights' with the borrow checker is actually a *symptom* of a deeper problem of ambiguous data ownership in your program. This is really interesting because it can give you an early forecast of deeper issues on the horizon!

If borrowck is making your life hard, even early on in a project, it's a pretty good sign that *you need to reevaluate data ownership in your code*. I think this is something that experienced Rust devs sort of do without even realizing it; they've discovered over time that >

This can give off the impression that in order to dev in Rust you need to do overly complex lifetime annotation and/or runtime borrow checking in order to satisfy borrowck. However, as you get more experienced with Rust, you start to notice that this is not really true at all.

The point of this tweet is NOT that DX12 is bad. DX12 DOES NOT cause stuttering. If anything, it reduces uncontrollable stuttering. The point is that DX12 allows more explicit control of GPU by the game, so there's nothing a USER can do to fix a BUG that is causing stutters.

fighting borrowck almost never leads to good things, and so they sort of instinctively change things around when they see the first signs of trouble. And, I think it's really interesting to get this emergent behavior: borrowck was never really designed to be prescriptive, afaik!

Interestingly, the fact that borrowck isn't as smart as a human can be is often a good thing! It means that once you come up with a way to express what you want to do in a way that borrowck understands, it'll be simple enough that a human can more easily verify & work on it too!
