RustConf 2023

test link Here are my notes from šŸ¦€ RustConf 2023 šŸ¦€. With no ado: # Talks All RustConf talks were 30 minutes, with no live Q&A. Instead, a channel on the Discord server was opened for each talk where the speaker and curious attendees would go to ask and answer questions. ā€¦

Shaking Off the Rust 2: Ray Tracing in WebAssembly

Rust. A ray tracer. The dream of WebAssembly. One dangerous idea that could ruin everything. This was the scene at the end of my last post, which covered creating a ray tracer in Rust using Peter Shirleyā€™s outstanding Ray Tracing in One Weekend. In the wrap-up to that post, Iā€¦

Shaking Off the Rust 1: Ray Tracing in One Weekend

Two classes stand out as my favorites from computer science at NCSU: x86 assembly, taught by Dana Lasher, and computer graphics, taught by Stuart Heinrich. In the graphics course, we wrote a rasterizer and a ray tracer (which I never finished šŸ˜…). In the 16 years since, Iā€™ve beeā€¦

Low-tech Disk Cloning

Itā€™s a tale as old as time. A nice laptop. A nearby cold beverage. A sickening splash. Thanks to the solid seals on the Carbon, there was no permanent damage, just a very sticky, nearly unusable keyboard. Rather than clean or replace the keyboard, our support desk opted to iā€¦

PiTiVi High Quality Rendering

My first experience with PiTiVi, eight years ago, was discouraging. Until my dad rediscovered it a few days ago, I hadnā€™t thought of giving it a second chance. Iā€™m glad I did. Iā€™ve been extremely impressed with the improvements. PiTiViā€™s formerly rough edges have been sanded downā€¦

Noise/Echo Cancellation in Fedora

The Minimic is great. I just received mine last week, and Iā€™m loving the ability to join video calls with nice, comfy headphones. Itā€™s much better than switching back and forth between headphones and a headset. The only problem is that, since the minimic is just a wire, it doesnā€™ā€¦
