I hate cpp to rust bindings

All my homies hate cpp to rust bindings

(I totally didn't spend 2 weeks on this shit and it still doesn't work I want to die)

My god why are all parser combinator libraries in Rust so bad??

Is it too much to ask for to parse a normal ass programming language with error recovery???? That's like 99.99% of what people need a parsing library for and somehow error recovery is always some weird after thought bandaged on after the fact

For fucks sake, I'm finally getting over the urge to reinvent the wheel all the time, but now all the libraries suck ass so I have to. Arrghh!

Nothing like spending 2 days solving a problem that could have been solved by 15 minutes of manual work

Hey, at least it's automated now...

I just had the most confusing error ever where clang ast randomly replaced classes with just int in type signatures

...wat? I guess the class only has one int field so maybe there's a cpp rule that requires replacing classes with their only field or something?

But when I add other fields it doesn't change. Even if the class has no int fields, it's still replaced by int in the ast

....

Yeah turns out I had the definitions in the wrong order and clang just uses int for unknown types instead of... you know maybe raising a fucking error

Thanks clang...

I love waiting 30 minutes for phsyx to finally fucking be done compiling my god can you just speed uuuuuup

For three days now I've been trying to fix a multi thousand line binder script which generates a json ast for c++ code using clang and then consumes type defs and creates rust bindings and I want to die

(it still doesn't work right)

The new mesh shaders are awesome!

Just doing manual backface culling of triangles (the easiest thing to do ever) improves performance by a clean 100%

And I haven't even implemented my software rasterizer for small tris yet

Nothing's gonna make you hate life more than low level graphics programming

Most expensive thing you ever bought?

I think I just bought about 20 seconds of relevant audio recordings for over 300€ 🙃

But hey, the virtual car has to sound good or whatever... totally not a painful investment...

"While a spectrum is defined as a function of frequency, a cepstrum is defined as a function of 'quefrency'. Quefrency is measured in 'time' and can be interpreted as a measure for time offsets of patterns in the time domain."

What in the actual fuck did I just read

Alcohol is the root of 50% of all problems

I hate free cloud services needing a login. Just let me fucking access the damn app. What difference does it make, it's literally free anyways?? I just want to make a god damn spreadsheet and now I need to login to like 3 different microsoft accounts

WHYYYYYYY

The downsides of coding drunk: Implementing the same thing you've already implemented but forget you did

Fucking finally got xkb and xcb to work after hours of bullshit

Why is it so fucking hard getting a damn keyboard layout on linux 😭

bevy_reflect is literally the best thing since sliced bread

It allows you to do type and value reflection IN RUST!! A compiled language with dynamic runtime reflection of values. And with custom annotations on fields and structs too like

#[derive(Reflect)]
#[@SomeDataIWantToAttach {x: 20, y: 10} ]
struct MyComponent {
#[reflect(@MyCustomRangeAnnotation(0..10))]
pub num: u32,
}

It is nice. It is so nice

Garbage collectors are actually pretty dang clever. I always thought they are inferior but honestly they can be really fast and the ergonomic benefit you get from them is just priceless

One really cool trick of multi generational GCs is having a young generation where all new objects are allocated and on each GC cycle you fully clean it out by deleting dead objects and promoting living objects to a higher gen

This way you can just linear allocate new objects in the young gen which is magnitudes faster than a general purpose allocation algorithm

You can basically heap allocate for almost free! Bunch of short lived temporary strings? No problem!

Maybe crazy idea but couldn't you implement a kernel level garbage collector for compiled languages like C/C++/Rust?

The biggest issue is that without a runtime you don't have safe points at which you know a thread isn't updating references... except you do! At thread context switches you know the thread isn't executing code, so you can safely do your stack traversal and reference marking without fearing race conditions

That's still somewhat problematic because OTHER threads may still be executing but there's probably concurrent gc designs that could deal with that...

Hmm maybe I should actually try to work on this

Man, you start doing computer graphics you really get an appreciation for nature

Like "got dayum, god got some good ass graphics, no way I can compete with that"

Man, I really want to write a book called "The little book of errors" about correct error management strategies and patterns

Not that I know what they are.... but I'd really like to write a book about them

@anyone hating on Rust I bet you won't be talking shit after seeing some 10x developer rust code 😤 https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/...

Holy shit, the exr crate is one of the most overengineered pieces of shit I have ever seen

... well maybe nalgebra is even worse, but that's not a fair comparison. Nothing is worse than nalgebra

Check out this fantastic function: https://docs.rs/exr/1.73.0/...

HLSL, for the love of all that is holy, this is now the THIRD time you made me waste hours trying to debug a shader because of stupid implicit conversions

Turns out that multiplying a float3 by a float4x4 silently truncates the matrix to float3x3, dropping the translation part 😐

Thank you dxc, very cool

I feel unburdened by what has been

Man going from Rust to other languages is making me go insane

Why does no other language have a high quality, standard documentation tool!? I just want to know what classes and functions you have 😭

Reddit is such an echo chamber it's crazy
