Why did you do this?

Relax, I only have one Sunday to work on idea, literally my weekend project. So I tried Deepseek to see if it can help. Surprisingly, it works and it saves me another weekend...

What is your setup?

Just chat.deepseek.com (cost = free) with prompts adapted from this gist.

Does it work in one-shot or I have to prompt it multiple times?

The Sane Rendering Manifesto

The goal of this manifesto is to provide an easy to follow and reasonable rules that realtime and video game renderers can follow.

These rules highly prioritize image clarity/stability and pleasant gameplay experience over photorealism and excess graphics fidelity.

Keep in mind that shipping a game has priority over everything else and it is allowed to break the rules of the manifesto when there are no other good options in order to ship the game.

Do not use dynamic resolution.

Note: this guide was written in 2020 and will probably be outdated for modern systems. You probably want to look at a different guide like https://lvra.gitlab.io/ instead - it also includes guides specific to games and other hardware. I haven't tried out their guide yet, but it looks of good quality to me and there is also a Matrix community available.

Getting my Valve Index to run flawlessly on ArchLinux with i3wm

I've bought the Valve Index VR headset and wanted to play on Linux. I had done a lot of tinkering with my Linux Machine up to this point so quite a few things on the headset initially had issues working alright.

I have listed all of the problems I encountered on ArchLinux with Valve Index and Steam VR in this post and how I managed to solve nearly all of them.

"The common wisdom of "don't use conditionals in shaders" is one of my biggest frustrations with how shaders are taught.
step(y, x) _is_ a conditional! It compiles to identical code as:
float val = (x >= y ? 1.0 : 0.0)
or
float val = 0.0;
if (x >= y) val = 1.0;"

// Performing shader divisions without diving *rcp = approximation of 1/x
