god i love midi as a medium for distributing music. every playback is an arrangement: unless the author wrote the piece for the specific device you have, it won't sound exactly the same, and that's cool! interesting things can happen. sometimes bad, sometimes wonderful.

i'm reading about how occlusion culling works in godot and it doesn't reflect the state of the art. rather than just computing a hierarchical z-buffer and performing culling on the GPU, it requires you to setup extra occluder geometry and rasterizes it on the CPU using embree. that requires a lot of extra effort compared to the HZB solution, and makes it impossible to use raytraced geometry as occluders.

Incredible reporting by Swiss media looking at Spyhide, a stalkerware made in Iran, which we exposed last year as a phone spyware operation snooping on tens of thousands of unknowing victims. NZZ speaks with a victim to explore the human cost of phone spyware.
