What is Vulkan

Vulkan is a low-overhead, cross-platform 3D graphics and compute API.
Vulkan targets

Vulkan targets high-performance realtime 3D graphics applications such as
games and interactive media across multiple platforms providing higher
performance and lower CPU usage.

                Working around offsetof limitations in C++
              
          
    Working around offsetof limitations in C++:

There is sometimes a situation in which one needs to get the relative offset
of a structure field, common examples of this include serialization frameworks
which aid to serialize objects, vertex attributes for rendering (D3D, GL.), etc.
The most common technique for getting this information is through the offsetof
macro defined in stddef.h. Unfortunately using the macro in C++ comes with a
new set of restrictions that prevent some (subjectively valid) uses of it.

Why it's bad


storing world space positions in gbuffer
STALKER, F.E.A.R.
Depth buffer can be used to derive position saving a lot of memory bandwidth


uploaded texture upside down
Various engines, mostly Quake derived.
Difficult to debug with tools like apitrace, nsight, pix, renderdoc, etc
