Downside is you see ads in your stream with mobile twitter which I don't see with desktop twitter.

Very nice.

Hopefully it also gets rid of the super annoying "While you were gone" sections.

More detail on the GPUs in the system:

Works pretty well, had a minimal X11 + GL app up and running in minutes.

Issue 1: Visual Studio doesn't pull header files from the target Linux system so Intellisense was useless.

Issue 2: Every time I compiled something or started a debug session, four new sshd processes and a new sftp-server process would start on the target Linux system (Ubuntu 14.04 running in a VM). Eventually I had 16-20 of these processes running and they never exit.

I think he was just saying that Unity is overkill for simple projects and that was part of the impetus for creating VR Script so people wouldn't need an entire game engine to display some panoramic content.

Yes, framebuffer reads (glReadPixels) are bad for everyone.

326 GFLOPS is with 16 GPU cores. Most likely it has 4 GPU cores which would be ~82 GFLOPS @ 600 MHz.

Tegra K1 is 365 GFLOPs @ 950 MHz. Tegra X1 is > 1 TFLOP @ ~1GHz.

No, this is something the GPU front end controls.

Most GPUs group together individual ALUs into larger units (sometimes called compute units or clusters or SMs) and each compute unit can run independent work.

"Last Fall, Nvidia released the Geforce GTX 970. It has 5.2 BILLION transistors on it. It already supports DirectX 12. Right now. It has thousands of cores in it. And with DirectX 11, I can talk to exactly 1 of them at a time."

That's not how it works, the app developer has no control over individual GPU cores (even in DX12). At the API level you can say "draw this triangle" and the GPU itself splits the work across multiple GPU cores.

In OpenGL ES there is no default precision in the fragment shader. Applications must explicitly specify the minimum precision as highp (FP32), mediump (FP16), or lowp (10 bit integer).

If the application uses mediump or lowp the GPU is free to run those computations at a lower precision.

It's amazing to me that cake.c with minor modifications can still compile and run on modern Windows.

Khronos, not Kronos.

Or just buy a $9 mold: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007ACTN54

Driver optimizations are a competitive advantage.

No longer a prime number :(

Thanks!

I tried with another app and was able to trace OpenGL calls trivially. Very nice work.

Very cool.

I tried this with notepad.exe on Windows 8.1 64-bit and this command:

frida-trace -i "CreateFile*" notepad.exe

produces this exception after saving a file from Notepad:

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 16: '0x7ffb216c62b8L'

$70 instead of $100, not $100 off.

No, they haven't quite reached the last generation (PS3/Xbox 360) yet and they're a long way away from the PS4 and Xbox One.

I wonder if that is vs DirectX (easier) or vs OpenGL (harder).

I was hoping for a mechanical keyboard laid out like the Microsoft Natural Keyboard. This one looks just like every other mechanical keyboard.

The OS could lie to the app after permission for some aspect was revoked and respond with no data or garbage data.

For example if you revoked permission for access to pictures or something else like music, when that app queried for the number of pictures/music on the device the OS would just return 0. For something like GPS you could return a valid location (like say somewhere on the Google Campus).

The j/k shortcuts work great now, thanks!

Only other comment I have regarding styling is there doesn't seem to be any highlighting of read vs unread items like Google Reader which shows the title of unread items in blue and read titles in black.

Do the keyboard controls not work in the example or are they not the same as Google Reader? Was trying to use j/k to switch between articles.

I quite like your design by the way. No wasted space showing a list of subscriptions, no social crap, and ~99% of the page dedicated to showing the actual content of your subscriptions instead of flashy UI.

Here is a more interesting look at this: http://aht.seriouseats.com/archives/2010/11/the-burger-lab-r...

The Android issue is entirely caused by shitty drivers. Pretty much all mobile hardware after the original iPhone fully supports OpenGL ES 2.0 shaders which haven't changed since inception.

Would be nice to be able to selectively disable some PEP 8 rules in the style checker. I don't care about lines longer than 80 characters and I don't like separating functions by two empty lines.

I assume so, the current Firefox for Android fully supports WebGL.
