mmozeiko "fixed" windows native development, just use their script. Also PortableBuildTools already exists https://github.com/Data-Oriented-House/PortableBuildTools

The proof that rendering is not _that_ hard because the flutter team did it when they switched off skia (although technically they still use skia for text rendering, I'll admit that text rendering and layout is hard)

Claude code is perfectly capable of writing low level rendering and input code and it can be equally as mindless as vibe coding web apps. E.g. just say "write a c++ gui widget library using dx11 and win32 and copy flutters layout philo

This is another common excuse. You don't need to use microsoft's or apple's or google's shit UI frameworks. E.g. see https://filepilot.tech/ You can just write all the rendering yourself using metal&#x2F

It is baffling how these AI companies, with billions of dollars, cannot build native applications, even with the help of AI. From a UI perspective, these are mostly just chat apps, which are not particularly difficult to code from scratch.

A few years ago I was experimenting with using Frank-Wolfe for collision detection in a toy physics engine. I never knew about the connection to GJK so I was pleasantly surprised to find the paper mentioned in the blog. Since I had never se

No AVBD is a solver, they use standard collision detection routines.

> But you have to look at numerical error. Yeah I agree, the error analysis could be many blogs in and of itself. I kinda got tired by the end of this blog. I would like to write a post about this in the future. For global solvers and it

This is the epigraph form of the problem. You try to find the point with the lowest height in the epigraph. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigraph_(mathematics)

Do you mean non-convex shapes? You can do a convex decomposition and then test all pairs. Usually games accelerate this with a BVH.

Braid was not made with XNA. It used a custom game engine. I think it was just on XBLIG?
