Thank you!!

i spent years trying to understand how it can be that some software that was supposed to corresponds to the well cited paper did not even come close to reproducing the results of the said paper,

This was my exact experience. I didn’t understand why I kept having it, and kept blaming myself for not being careful enough. My code must be wrong, or the data, or something.

Nah. It was the idea.

Kept feeling like a kick in the gut, until here we are today, when I’m warning everyone that Karras, of all people, might publish such a thing.

I really appreciate that you posted this, because I’m so happy I wasn’t alone in the feeling of “what’s going on, here…?”
