If you move fast enough, you can glitch the ball against the slides and get stuck.
You'll want to get rid of glTexImage2D completely except for application startup (allocate a pool of N images up front, then re-use them and update with glTexSubImage2D). And short of being able to optimize the text render, which seems to be awfully stupid, you'll want to render offscreen to those textures ahead of time before you need to render them on-screen.
And dolphins and whales, no need to go to submarines.
Edit: also, the pop-up menu on the right side that completely breaks your scrollbar. Putting that UI/UX degree to use.
Edit: I just profiled it and it spends 42% of exclusive time in texImage2D. It would be better to allocate a set of textures up front and then use glTexSubImage2D to update their contents. glTexImage2D allocates a new texture every time.
Catching up with that 1hr interview...

This is just hilarious. Remember to get enough sleep after a life-threatening heart attack, folks!
But your comment resonates very much with me. I am tired of this capitalist culture that reduces the human essence to value output and shames people for not pretending to be working hard enough. Part of the reason I like working from home is that I can take that fucking 20-minute nap after lunch and be infinitely more productive throughout the rest of the day.

Why not raise the price in urban areas, where pollution is greater, as is the standard of living? Then throw in some more public transportation to make up for the difference. The lone white boy chugging gas in rural California and living paycheck to paycheck can probably take a break, and his emissions, I suppose, are largely irrelevant.
There's no way that C implementation is easier to read than the Python one. There's no high-level abstraction going on there and the list comprehension reads like natural language.
I agree Rust often gets distracting with unwrapping and lifetime notation.
I often download books before buying them because I otherwise have no reasonable means to judge their content. This is not much different from flipping through the pages of a book in a library before buying it. The appeal of reading from an actual physical book is not something that any digital form can replace, so the book being available in digital form won't stop me from buying a copy. I also have no interest in Kindles and DRM.
Music, on the other hand, might be a different story except for select audiophiles who prefer vinyl.
So I don't think we can generalize to "product" like you do in your argument. Details and facts actually matter.
