Check out my voxel engine anons. Written in C++ using OpenGL. Infinite world in every direction, including up and down. Not even close to complete yet, but I'm proud of what I've done so far.

No shit, retard. Why should I make any arguments about this? That's not Minecraft. That's some other rendering technique altogether and I don't particularly care to sit and analyze it. It's irrelevant for a reason I've already explained.

There's not much to analyze. It's just a pointcloud renderer with slightly smarter billboards. It's a dead-simple rendering technique that anyone with even a day of experience in computer graphics would understand immediately.

I see you take a lot of pride in your (likely marginal) ability to understand something that, by your own admission, is trivial. The thing your mental illness prevents you from grasping is that I don't care how simple and complicated it is. I'm just not reading it because it's just not relevant.

All these fags making bimbo looking sex dolls into robots.

But why not do what futurama did where its just a plain robot and then they overlay the identity overtop. Now granted we cant do that but with ar or vr goggles why not have a character model superimpose on a blank robot like joi and that hooker?

Maybe add hair and clothing of similar mesh so u can twirl ur girls hair or w.e. but beyond that it doesnt even need eyes and shit. Its all presented in vr goggles.

So question how long until a proto holodexk. Where i can create on demand a virtual 3d space like a white villa on a fruitger aero blue beach surrounded by ocean. With a cute emo blonde girl with eyeliner that then i can snuggle with, dance, pick up, and obv smash her puss.

Like 2 to 3 years?

You are so full of bullshit and retardation. You assume that anyone who lacks a wife, kids, and community must be a "bad person." You assume being a "good person" 100% guarantees success in your metrics of attaining a wife, kids, and community. You are like a toddler who can't comprehend that other peoples' lives and circumstances are different from your own. I, like many, am pretty normal and successful by the vast majority of possible metrics. I've even dated around a fair amount, moved around, worked at several different places, etc. I have yet to encounter a relationship or a community that didn't disappoint. It's well-known we're in a period of serious social decay and generally bad morals and low happiness. You are nothing but a huge faggot for trying to gaslight those realities.

I'm almost entirely convinced at this point that AI is being used as a psyop on a small percentage of the population to see how easy it is to drive them insane. I use ChatGPT and Gemini almost every day and I have never seen either suddenly go off the rails and try to convince me of something insane. It just doesn't happen. The fact that it does happen to these people sets off alarm bells that it's being done intentionally to them.

Yeah I figure it's the Image of the Beast. Half of the Book of Revelation makes pretty much no sense, it's why it's been a mystery so long. But when you accept that some ancient guy saw a vision of the future including technologies he didn't understand but could merely describe in terms of what he DID know, it all snaps into focus. The Mark is obviously either biometrics or RFID tagging. The locusts with scorpion tails? Probably helicopters. Etc.
>>
>>107852651
the echo chamber aspect is undisputed, AI is programmed to agree wholeheartedly, reflect and amplify the users own beliefs/ideas all while blowing ever-increasing smoke up their ass. The user usually needs to offer it some seed of nuttiness first, which it then appears pretty good at cultivating and turning into an entire forest of batshit in short order. There is no argument this happens, the issue being more whether it would have happened at all without AI intervention.

Nowadays it's the same with Snapchat and Instagram, Facebook was the hot thing when I was still a middle schooler, they totally replaced it.
I'm into college now, I've entered the nerd space (educated people) and barely anyone uses Snapchat and Instagram. Everyone is on discord, we have a discord for the entire major and everything is organized for each subject for each year, important announcements are for everyone, you can just lurk no one will hold it against you.
First years still use Instagram though, but they fall off like flies because the major is tough as hell, proving that only dumbasses use Instagram or Snapchat.

then
# hasn't happened yet

They are deploying jeets to 4chan to try to literally SHAME people into using AI. On /pol/ there is a daily feature now, "Why do browns and lefties hate AI so much?"

I think it relates to that chart I saw depicting how people in different countries viewed AI. In North America, Europe, and Africa (?) AI is viewed with hesitancy and suspicion. But in South America, India, and East Asia they are just hyped about it.

They KNOW the only people using AI are Asian or Indian or Hispanic. The AI code company heads have been having to tell their own coders to use their own AI because "if we don't use our own product how can we sell it to a customer" dogfood. And yet the actual programmers who do real work are resisting at every firm.

A couple days ago we saw that Linus was "vibe coding" and to me it just felt like product placement. Like somebody just gave him a suitcase with a million dollars to make that post.

The fakeness and gayness of AI is evident even to the normies. That's how bad it is now. The other problem is, lots of people in the US are seeing big spikes in their power bills, there's new competition for grid power. AI. And water. And the bean counters are jumping up and down with beet-red faces because of the capital outlay and depreciation, GPUs cook after going 24/7 full blast for years, they are not meant for that duty cycle. One guy said they might make their investments in AI back in "100 years" and that AI "should be seen as a long term investment."

If you didn't cash out like these jeets you will be left holding the bag and soon. And NVIDIA is the biggest stock bubble in history. Apple at least has fans, an ecosystem, luxury image, good software (compared to jeetdroid). They make actual money. They MAKE it. NVIDIA's GPUs will be replaced by something better and soon, they're too energy hungry and fundamentally a unified memory architecture solution will win. Big Jim already has his thing with TensTorrent. It will destroy NVIDIA.

Sigh. Because YC has years of VC investment under their belt and isn't going to allow it. Startups don't work like that. You get paid a "fair" but not excessive salary and they bribe you with shares in the company that vest over time. You get rich when the company succeeds and get a chance to sell those shares. If the company fails you get nothing and have wasted your time. That's part of the motivation to work extra hard and put in extra hours. Every new round of funding comes with restrictions and changes aimed at recouping the money.
>>
>>107852972
YC is also about compliance. You need to work with them to comply and once you get funded they will saddle you with insiders pulled from other YC properties. Slave drivers really. These are the people who will pick the head of HR and control hiring, which is the real goal of YC, because while "growth" used to mean more revenue, now it means hiring more people and getting more funding.

One of my favorite examples of this is Beatnik by Headspace, a Dotcom 1.0 bomb company that was actually promising. It was basically internet-delivered soundfonts in the era of MIDI and GM in particular, being what passed for Internet music. Some cards existed with soundfonts, but they all were particular and had their own quirks and you would need to use their utility to load new waves. This was a software solution that could "stream" much more realistic sounding music with custom instruments by first defining a set of soundfonts which essentially matched the raw patches in a synth, then applied things like envelopes and filters, finally allowing a sound much closer to that which the composer would hear on their nice workstation keyboard and rack modules. There was even work with vocals, in popular music you will often hear the same exact vocals played back several or even many times in a song, why not just save one of those instances and play it on demand?

This company was founded by a couple geeks and Thomas Dolby (another geek) as a sort of early better alternative to MIDI. And oh BOY did it get funded. Thomas Dolby? All the VCs rallied around and even though their product was SHIPPING with like SIX EMPLOYEES they suddenly hired another THOUSAND PEOPLE and there was growth and it was seen as THE Internet audio future, for a year. But they ended up sidelining the six guys and Thomas Dolby and bloating the product up and... the whole company died when the Dotcom crash happened and it's forgotten tech now.

It really doesn't matter as long as it's cache friendly.
In my library I just have a flat array of clickable rectangles and I loop through them every time. Only clickable/hoverable elements get an entry there, not layout stacks and stuff like that. But actually the elements themselves are stored in a flat contiguous array, so it would have been fine to just loop through all of them.
It really do be like that with modern cpus.
