with this approach to color, one thing that's a little tricky is haze. here's a first pass. normally i'd have channels stored separately, and i could perform per-channel operations and combine. but as a stylistic decision / self-imposed challenge i'm seeing how feasible it is to do it without.

i maybe found a hazeless tuning set i like. it's not 100% but there is something there.

i thought i would take a stab at just projection for the additional primitives, which resulted in the most baroque graphical glitch

i'm working on getting the new renderer to match the tuning set for the old renderer now. this handles color differently, at present- it's all precomputed + bitwise math. i'm going to explore haze (or hazeless looks) with this, but if i'm not content i'll go back to more on-the-fly color.

ok this is promising- with shadows (not rendering) for everything, it's at 10ms. but that's only with inlined point samples, not interpolation. if i turn on interpolation w/ a function, it's 23ms or so. i'm going go try inlining.

i liked this intermediate state of the renderer, so i saved off a build.

the infilling is working, with depth test! now i need to add clipping for the bookended heightmaps.

i also wanted to at least try doing screen space dithered shadows. i you could finesse this various ways, but this is a good indication of what it might feel like. i like the brightness and cleanliness of it. the light feels good but the volumes suffer, i think.

ok it's buggy, but i did mostly get cloud scrolling working. unfortunately, it ends up breaking a lot of my optimizations (up to 25 ms per frame from 17), so i'll have to leave it on the cutting room floor for now.

if your color is "dirtier", eg more of the bits have 1s in them, then bitwise tricks like this work better. this is fainter than i want, but see this is darkening more of the colors now.

Former NJ AG Matt Platkin: They’re indicting the SPLC for allegedly misusing donor funds to infiltrate and disrupt white supremacist networks by paying informants. Now they’re turning around and they’re going to take $1.8 billion of public money not to disrupt those networks, but to fund them.

Politicians and the price of gas under Biden vs Trump. Of course, you can probably do the same in reverse, because both parties do the same thing, it's always the other guy's fault. Its just that Trump lies about how great everything is, even in the face of everyday reality.🗽

I don't care what you think about BE or Hasan, so don't bother telling me. The larger point BE is making here is the problem with liberal Zionism, however: it can condemn Netanyahu, say the right things about Gaza, and still fail to treat the Israeli war industry as fundamentally disqualifying.
