C++<\/h4>\n

Scott Meyers has a new article up on his blog on the distinction between std::move and std::forward and their use in move constructors<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bit Twiddling hacks<\/a> is a great and pretty long compilation of trickery with regards to manipulating bits directly.<\/p>\n

ChaiScript<\/a> is an ECMAScript\/JavaScript-inspired scripting language for embedding in C++ programs.<\/p>\n

ViennaCL<\/a> is an open source C++ computing library for scientific computing (mostly for solving linear systems) with multiple backends for CUDA, OpenCL, and OpenMP.<\/p>\n

Andrey Sinyakov posted some great, introductory slides on new C++11 features<\/a>. It's a pretty good whirlwind tour of the new standard.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Maths<\/h4>\n

Making Things with Maths<\/a> is a fantastic, dynamic HTML5 slide set on using mathematics to procedurally create cool stuff. This is a truly awesome set of slides. Highly recommended!<\/p>\n

I\u00f1igo Quilez, of demoscene fame but now working at Pixar, gives some insights into the procedurally generated moss in the Pixar movie Brave<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Nature of Code<\/a> by Daniel Shiffman is an excellent resource to learn about the mathematical principles often found in nature. It uses Processing.js and contains lots of cool dynamic and interactive demos.<\/p>\n

This page on Rapidly-exploring Random Trees<\/a> is a great resource on an interesting algorithm to explore paths in nonconvex high-dimensional spaces. Pretty interesting technique. I found this via a reference from Casey Muratori's post in his post on The Witness blog on Mapping the Island's Walkable Surfaces<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Graphics<\/h4>\n

Sean Barrett wrote a great article on Corners Don't Look Like That: Regarding Screenspace Ambient Occlusion<\/a>. I think we should move past SSAO as an industry. Unfortunately, I don't really see yet how we can replace it except for with expensive options like voxel cone tracing that might not be feasible for all games on next-gen consoles.<\/p>\n

Here's a cool deferred area lights demo<\/a> implemented in WebGL\/three.js. It's based on an older post on the gamedev.net forums<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
