i made a personal website for stardance! view here: rubensutton.com github: github.com/code2344/Personal-Website the actual live site is a bit different as i converted it into wordpress (and i'm hosting it on nest) but should be almost identical. i even got a blog on there!

—————– Devlog XIV —————– The Planning - The possible NEW NAME??? - The New Project!! > To recap, my project is a custom made rendering engine that focuses on diverse rendering options along with high stylistic control (very high-level explanation). ✨ So What Happened? :camera_with_flash: I haven’t done much pure coding, HOWEVER, I am getting ready for some large-scale rewrites and additions to the code. For what has happened: • Fully sectioned the resource - disk - and scene - cpu/logic - directories (folders) so there wasn’t any GPU actions taken place. • Refactored resource and scene directories • Re-implemented Application into CMakeLists so I can compile and link that file. • Did some planning for the *huge* renderer rewrite that is coming up. Along with all of that, I came up with a possible name for the application (since, surprisingly, Tempname: Engine is a temp name) I had it when when gazing at the sun through some clouds over a feild. Although it is super basic, so I’m going to have to play with it. ❤️ Thanks for Reading!!! I might have to take a bit of a break from progress on this project, as I have a website that I’m making for my local fire dept. (look out for a new stardance project)! I’m also planning on doing some re-marketing / re-branding (idk what to call it) to change the descriptions of the project (ex. the “To recap section on my devlogs, and the landing page). I’ve been getting more questions on it, and my current explanations are a bit too much.

Devlog XIII Spent some time off from working on this project, started the beginnings of another one. Finally ended up getting the interest to come back to this one > To recap, my project is a custom made rendering engine that focuses on diverse rendering options along with high stylistic control (very high-level explanation). 💡 Overview Commit message for this devlog: > BREAKING CHANGE - New asset system, new scene system, renamed SceneLoader to PrefabSpawner, still need to update rest of code with temp fix until reworking for new system. ✨ What _did_ I do? Previously, the asset manager did still handle caching already loaded assets (models, materials, textures), however the implementation was not professional and temporary: • Caching based on a string key (slow) • Broke the "single responsibility principal" many times by uploading to the GPU & constructing Scene objects Now, I am using AssetHandles (UUIDs) for caching, and I no longer uploading to the GPU in AssetManager. ❌ What _didn't_ I do? This new system is a good start for realigning and separating the different parts of the program, but is only about a third of the work. For what I still need to do, this is what follows: 1. Stop uploading to the GPU in the PrefabSpawner (scene) 2. Fix the renderer and find where I will upload the mesh & texture data. 3. Check for compilation and working across the whole project. 4. Change every instance of AssetManager to using AssetHandles. Once I have these, I can move onto redoing the renderers and FINALLY start working on the "fun stuff" ❤️ Thanks for reading!! ☀️ Github repo: github.com/pkncoder/Engine/tree/Phase-IV Project landing page: pkncoder.github.io/Engine

I've just gotten back from Horizons Europa and had a blast! I made sure to write a new blog post hawksley.dev/blog/hack-club-horizons all about it before I forget. I've also been doing some miscellaneous changes to the descriptions on each page, and my OG images now use text-wrap balance so they look nicer! I've changed from logical css properties back to physical properties (width, height, etc.) because I want to support old or custom browser engines. I've clarified the split licensing that my site uses - a mix of MIT, CC BY, CC BY SA, and ARR. And finally, I discovered I can losslessly compress PNG's just by reprocessing them, so I did that for my whole site. My site's github repository github.com/ethanhawksley/ethanhawksley.github.io has 8 stars now :yayayayayay:

—————– Devlog XII —————– I haven’t done as much programing recently, but yesterday I wanted to finish what I needed to do quickly, as it wouldn’t take that long. > To recap, my project is a custom made rendering engine that focuses on diverse rendering options along with high stylistic control (very high-level explanation). 🎯 UUIDs For a quick explanation of what a UUID is: UUID stands for Universally Unique Identifier. In practice it is a random alphanumeric (a-z,0-9) ID between 64-128 bits. For my project, I used an unsigned 64 bit integer (no negative numbers). It isn’t exactly what the standard for a UUID is, as it isn’t alphanumeric, but I think for now 18.4 quintillion ids are just fine. ⬆️ What Next?? Now that I’ve finished this, the next step is to gut & rewrite the entire asset managing system. I need to redo how files are found, how data is stored, how they are retrieved. Basically the CRUD (create, read, update, delete) line and more. ❤️ Thanks for reading Github repo: github.com/pkncoder/Engine Project landing page: pkncoder.github.io/Engine

----------------- Devlog XI ----------------- I haven't been programming as much, as marching band 🎺 has started, so I've had less time. But now I can do the really exiting stuff! > To recap, my project is a custom made rendering engine that focuses on > diverse rendering options along with high stylistic control (very > high-level explanation). What did I Do? As I mentioned in the last devlog, I have been working on doing a full passthrough of the entire project to get ready for major rewrites. I have completed by refactor checklist, so I have gone through ever cpp file to: Fix warnings Check object method & attribute visibility Check const, static, and inline declarations Change the placement and formatting of method Going through every line of code to do minor logic changes & change formatting Rename methods, attributes, functions, and variables to better names & names w/ personal conventions. Add comments everywhere Change the placement of the #C0BBNECQ9V1 statements (main header file, object interfaces, project files, project packages, extra C++ headers) Run a full clean, compile, and test of the application The LIE Technically I didn't go through every file, as I left AssetManager & Rasterizer. Since these will be completely rewrote soon I felt like it was a waste. What next? Now that I have finished cleaning up the code base, the next projects are to: 1. Move to using UUIDs instead of an entity index in scene 2. Gut AssetManager and rewrite it 3. Change to using metafiles instead of a predetermined path to assets 4. Rework the scene class 5. Extend IRenderer and get ready for the fun part! Thanks for reading!* I tried to keep this one shorter for y'all. I don't normally get too much attention to my devlogs, but I would be more than happy to answer any questions, as there is so much more to this project that even the landing page doesn't cover (WIP).

Officially day 202 Personally day 24 I finished my macropad!!! hackclub.slack.com/archives/C0AUSQ0J7M3/p1784673626905549 github link is there and everything! Devlogged about what I did there too, so I'll skip most of that I made a little intro cutscene for every round to show how many wins each player has (I haven't added names to it yet but it's super smooth :D) That's whats playing int he video. Kind of cut the streak close for #C0AUZ1LAMH6 but it's okay right?!?!? Losing sleep over a 3d printer is worth it :nod:. My music tagger project is slower to develop, as I'm kind of lost as to where it should go. I have half a mind to make it a full blown music player atp... shoudl i? No clue who to ask about it, and it'd take a lot more time, but I'd know what to code and it would make sense. Right now it just adds genres and tags and can search through the database... and thats it. Not really useful, is it? Im also thinking of maybe a ranking system? like listen to two consecutive songs, and pick your fav. if you shuffle enough maybe you'll eventually rank evberything? might be fun... but wouldn't be super useful to me. Hm. Time to do some thinking.

Hey guys, I wanted to share a tiny thing I made for #C0AUZ1LAMH6 : Termcord - A terminal command recorder I wrote this in an not so well known language called Nim. Nim basically transpiles to C/C++/JS while giving a python like syntax that makes it fast and easy to understand. What I build with it, to learn how the whole thing works, is basically a cli tool that records the commands you type in by giving an REPL that also directly executes the commands. It takes the recordings and saves it in json file at a .termcord directory located at the home path of the user. Try it out with npm install -g termcord (may break if you have disabled post-intall scripts. In that case you have to manually download the binaries and add them to your path) Check out the code here: github.com/PrathamGhaywat/termcord

—————– Devlog X —————– I’ve been working on refactoring my project for the last few hours. Part of how I code includes: Comments throughout to explain the code, strict formatting throughout, and trying to help the compiler with “const” and “inline” keywords. > To recap, my project is a custom made rendering engine that focuses on > diverse rendering options along with high stylistic control (very > high-level explanation). ## The process My process of refactoring usually happens once I finish a new addition, however I haven’t been adding new things for a while. Now that I’ve added a new addition to the project (Event system & LayerStack), I want to go through the entire codebase under the src/ directory (not the glsl shaders). ## Project code stats (src/ directory) Running the command line utility “cloc” on my src/ directory to count code stats, I get these counts:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Language                     files          blank        comment           code
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C++                           23            646            464             1930
C/C++ Header                  47            506            205             1302
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUM:                          70           1152            669             3232
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not very big yet, although that will be increased once I get to redoing the entire rendering engine.

## *What I have done*
Now, back to my refactoring. I got through the basics: removing warnings, double checking the public/private attribute declarations on classes & structs, setting const on functions & params, setting inline on functions.

## *The checklist*
This is my entire checklist for refactors, this is my first project using it, so it is still being worked on:
### Refactor Checklist (src/)

1. [x] Fix warnings
2. [x] Fix public vs. private
3. [x] Make functions const when needed
4. [x] Make function params const when needed
5. [x] Make functions inline when needed
6. [ ] Fix placement of functions
7. [ ] Refactor step by step in code
8. [ ] Rename things
9. [ ] Add comments
10. [ ] Place the \#includes in the right spots
11. [ ] Fix file tree
12. [ ] Run ./fullTest
13. [ ] Update the obsidian canvas & png
14. [ ] Update the website

Eventually I will also need to make one for the shaders too, as they are sometimes more technical on the code side. ## Conclusion That’s all that I’ve been doing, thanks for reading.

I have been working the past week to get the Event system working & trying to fix pointer / referance issues (there are still a few I haven't figured out). But now I have a working event system. To recap, my project is a custom made rendering engine that focuses on diverse rendering options along with high stylistic control (very high-level explanation). In my previous devlog, I explained the Layer Stack, a top-down structure for controlling object ownership and main loop execution. Every frame, the layer stack runs the first layer to poll camera movement inputs (temp), and then next layer is ran to render out the frame through the RendererManager. This is great, but where the layer stack really shines is the event system. Events are reactions to when anything happens, keys being pressed / released, the window resizing, etc. When an event is dispatched, the layerstack stops, loops through each layer running it's "onEvent" function to let that layer react (ex. the final render needing it's texture resized). If a layer doesn't want below layers to react to the event, it can consume it, stopping the event dispatching and continuing execution. I struggled a ton with the event state not updating correctly, and the camera not giving the right values to render the triangles. It turned out to be objects/classes duplicating, and not being able to update. There is so many debug messages in the terminal 😭 This was all front-end changes (no change in the render), but now there is a better system put in place (back end changes).

Tempname: Engine update. I am so tired To keep it all contained, since the last devlog I have: - Merged Phase-III into main & created a Phase-IV branch - Changed the landing page's color palette - Modified the target architecture 4 times (3 committed) - Created a rudimentary SceneManager class - Implemented an EngineContext class to distribute ownership & to help with data flow+containment - Implemented a layer system to help cut down on application & to contain/host the events system. - Finally put in the system directory (folder) in the architecture that will host any simulations, computations, and animations. Currently it is the planned details for the camera system. The biggest thing that I have done so far is the layer system & state/context creation. The layer system is like a regenerating stack of pancakes 🥞. Before you cast your pancake regeneration spell we all have, you have to prep the pancakes with butter and syrup. Each time you finish the pancakes, a new round starts and you eat them again. Then, once you are done, you have to disable the regeneration spell. The layer system acts the same, but computationally & layers instead of pancakes. Each layer goes through the lifecycle of onAttach -> onUpdate -> onDetach. By far the biggest reason for the layer system is the event system, but I'll leave that for the next devlog. Here is the github page: github.com/pkncoder/Engine/tree/Phase-IV Here is the landing page: pkncoder.github.io/Engine I still have soooo much to do, especially with & after the event system. I've completed most of the easy stuff for Phase-IV. Here is the current architecture & a site screenshot.

Hi, I'm Ethan Hawksley and I've been making even more changes for hawksley.dev recently. When my blog post did well on Hacker News and got featured in TLDR Dev, I implemented an email newsletter signup form as a more readily accessible alternative to my RSS and JSON feeds. I'm using Kit as the backend, and you can even sign up without needing JavaScript enabled! I've been renaming some of my online accounts, so my GitHub is now github.com/ethanhawksley and the site repository has moved to github.com/ethanhawksley/ethanhawksley.github.io My GitHub profile README is now hooked up to the deployment of my site, so every time I publish a new post, my profile will adjust accordingly. The theme toggle script has been consolidated to window._getTheme and window.setTheme to reduce duplication across my code without impacting performance adversely. And finally, I'm now using compressed JPEGs for my OG image previews instead of PNGs, since I was previously having issues with preview images being too large to embed successfully.

Just got done with some renders on the engine, been working all day on implementing the things needed. Along with the images, I added: Shadow Mapping for the Rasterizer (only 1 emitter) Tone mapping to the Rasterizer Fog to the Rasterizer A vignette effect to the Rasterizer Transparency maps to the Rasterizer Settings & presets for the renders * A new "Queer Room" modeled by me in blender for the Path Tracer (going to post it on ship). I honestly have had so much fun with this. Currently working on a landing page to go in place of my "Online Demo" on stardance (since this isn't that kind of application D: ). Here's the github: github.com/pkncoder/Engine/tree/Phase-III! At some point I'll be redoing the README as well for more info. Also, these images aren't even the best ones, I'll leave that for the ship :3

I was done with doomscrolling Instagram so i made an app that only lets you see posts from your friends (works on the official instagram app btw). apart from this banger feature, it has a suite of features like • block apps, short form videos, websites • count how many reels/shorts you scroll • many more (idk too long to paste here) All Free and Open Source!

I have finished getting albedo (basic color) textures loading. To get this working I had to redo how meshes were loaded completely, but I finally finished that. The biggest problems I had was getting the backrooms model to render correctly, as the previous models I had, all of the textures were in a "baked" form, which my renderer does not support. Finally I found a free non-baked one that was really good, but there was just a few issues with normals, and after I fixed that in blender shading issues showed up, and then UV issues. However the model is mostly fixed now! If you would like to try for yourself, the github repo is here: github.com/pkncoder/Engine/tree/Phase-III. The repo is large currently, as I still need to compress the files, or remove them (gitignore). The Path Tracer is currently disabled, as I need to swap the textures to handles, and then modify the PathTracer to work with the textures. It will look really good once I get that working though!

I'm back with a fresh batch of improvements to hawksley.dev my personal site! I'm Ethan Hawksley on most platforms, but to make me easier to find I created hawksley.dev/elsewhere where I've listed all my profiles in one location, with rel="me" so search engines know I'm the same person. I've switched over to logical units (inline and block) instead of physical (width and height), and added dir="ltr" to my html to aid internationalisation down the line. Fixed a flash of white that chromium-based browsers would occasionally experience whilst navigating the site. Now using astro-compress to minify the resultant site so it's even smaller Also set up stylelint to run on save so my css stays in an idiomatic order. And finally my print styles have been improved so if you do Ctrl+P on my site, it should look nice! My GitHub is github.com/ethan-hawksley and you can check out my repository at github.com/ethan-hawksley/ethan-hawksley.github.io it's fully open source!

Hey everyone! 👋 For the past few months, I've been building AXIOM, an AI-native workspace designed around the idea that working with AI should feel less like chatting and more like collaborating. Instead of living inside a single chat window, AXIOM combines conversations, visual thinking, coding, tasks, files, browser interactions, and autonomous workflows into one connected environment. One of the core ideas is Space — a visual workspace where thoughts, notes, plans, tasks, agents, and project context can all come together and evolve as work happens. I'm currently preparing the first public release, which is planned for Tuesday, 16/06/2026. The repository already exists, but it's private for now while I finish the remaining work and polish things up. It will be made public on launch day: GitHub: github.com/fireboltmagnum/AXIOM There's still a lot to build. Would love to hear thoughts, suggestions, feature ideas, or things you'd want to see in a tool like this.

I've made my own GUI based Motif GUI editor called MotifDesigner! Take the hassle away from coding hideous amounts of code just for a simple app, just embed it on your own C++ app with an automatically generated header (.h) file ready for your use! This entire thing is written in C++ and highly optimized for MaXX desktop users, but don't fret! Other Linux users can try it (Wayland users require XWayland) and make their own Motif apps with ease! It's open source, too! github.com/zeankundev/MotifDesigner

giving LLMs a "visual Brain" via a 4d Physics Sandbox llms struggle with spatial geometry because they process text tokens, not dimensions. I am building a physical sandbox framework to act as an external visual cognitive engine for AI. how the loop works: • Code Gen: LLM generates logic to spin up a 4D cloud workspace (3D + time). • Offloading: Heavy orbital mechanics and structural math offload to my custom GPGPU physics engine. • Self-Correction: Live telemetry logs from simulation failures pipe back to the LLM to auto-patch its code. Update: Prototype Done, Moving to Realism! The agentic loop prototype works. Now, I am building the first 4 planets of the solar system using: • NASA Maps: Real elevation data in a Three.js frontend. • Atmospheric Clouds: Custom GLSL shaders for dynamic layers. • Newtonian Orbitals: A multi-body backend gravity matrix. Pushed the core builds to GitHub: github.com/williamjosh-dev/Physical-Sandbox-v1.0- I'm 15 and currently trying to balance massive planetary scales without breaking my WebGL views.

You! You're a human right? So you probably don't need this project, but maybe some apps that you built do! I’m Akaalroop and I’ve… never touched or built a backend in my life but I like Rust, so I decided to try it out! I built an API which converts words: like “seven hundred and forty-three” to numbers your app can use, like 743! As you can imagine the logic for doing that isn't too difficult, but it was the API itself that took most of the time. Setting up a parser, receiving requests, returning errors or responses, dealing with incorrect data, etc. All without a single framework or parser library used! And I used no AI either! It was a challenge but I'm proud of myself. So I hope you enjoy v1.0.0 and give it a try! GitHub Demo Flavourtown
