       The most cursed thing C/C++ I came up by myself is abusing the lifetime of temporary variable to scope an actual expression with the variable's side effects. For stuff like ImGui, having scoped modifiers like those is pretty nifty but hella cursed# include <print>struct Foo{    Foo() { std::println("Foo();"); }    ~Foo() { std::println("~Foo();"); }};void bar(){    std::println("bar();");}int main(){    (Foo{}, bar());    return 0;}// https://godbolt.org/z/vdEoeqerf for reference

       (I know there is stuff like Duff's device that really feels like gazing at abysses but that little gem is just something that came up by itself, I didn't try hard to cook.)

       Stretching my Lua muscles. Scrolling the grid is supported, with the indicators staying on the sides of the screen.#picotron

       Works fine. Let's see how it'll go from there.#Picotron

       Reworking my engine to split the mesh CPU data from the Mesh class that holds the GPU buffers.I also switched to u32 indices for now. I feel like I'm doing a mistake so I'll just pack u16 indices in the same buffer and have a flag to decide which size to pick.

       Lol the mesh file (basically a list of fat vertices and a list of indices) weights almost 500MB.

       Bone weights on vertices should be normalized most of the time, if not all the time, right?

       I'm thinking about packing 4 bones and 3 weights in a float4: .x is an u32 with the bone IDs packed and .yzw would be the weights for bone 1-3. You'd derive bone 0's weight by solving a Pythagorean equation.That, if the weights are effectively a normalized vector of 1 to 4 components.

       I'm hesitating between using 0xFF and 0xFF as index for an invalid bone. 0xff is the classic case but 0x00 could allow me to still evaluate and mask the calculation easily given that it's going to almost exclusively be the root bone, if that would improve vectorization

       I glitched the source animation for almost all chain-ending bones but oooh, reading from the animation and drawing the skeleton works!#gamedev
