Racism is unpatriotic Theodore Melfi (2016) When I saw a trailer for this movie and I thought two things: it looks very well made, and it looks preachy as hell. Hidden Figures follows three black women working for NASA in the 1960's, during a period of high tension with Russia over the space race, and…
Slow progress is still progress These are the things I worked on since last article: Implemented the Lighting tutorials of LearnOpenGL - result visible hereAdded GLSL file types to code documentation (and added shader files to tutorial documentation)A LOT of code simplificationeffort to remove all needlessly complex structures and data typesremove all macros except dbuffer…
It's been a while since my last post, I was on holidays and also some of the things below kept me quite busy. Here is a non exhaustive list of what I've worked on: cmake scripts: I've finally managed to make targets dependent on files that are not source, so if that text or image…
I'm still coding my way back to where I was before I decided to switch to C instead of C++. I updated the documentation with the new libs (I have to write hundreds of comments though...sigh...). Graphics The graphics library is a wrapper for OpenGL. A lot of functions are not doing much more than…
Terminator Resistance Teyon (2019) I like the Terminator franchise a lot (well the first two movies are marvelous, after that it's downhill for sure, even though some things are interesting). Single-player First person shooters are among my favorite genre of games, especially on consoles (I know most people don't like it). Most Terminator games ended…
The Aviator Martin Scorcese (2004) I remember watching this movie in the theater when it came out. It was quite different than anything I had seen before, I didn't expect to see a movie like this and it turned out I was really fascinated by it. The Aviator portrays part of the life of aviation…
Degrees of Separation Moondrop (2019) I was browsing through PlayStation Store, trying to find a game to play with my girlfriend, and came across this hidden gem for a very reasonable price. Play as Rime and Ember, brought together by a mysterious force, but staying apart in their respective worlds, in this 2D puzzle adventure.…
RoboCop Paul Verhoeven (1987) Sometimes I don't understand my own behavior. I'm very much a proponent of auteur theory, if I like an artist I tend to try and look at most of their production. I have liked each Paul Verhoven movies I've seen (yes, even Show Girls). Some of them are among my favorites.…
I have transferred my C++ image library to C. Fortunately that wasn't too hard, and I've been able to make many improvements along the way. After the porting to C it's cleaner, way more modular, I love it. Features supported image formats:bitmap (.BMP)JPEGPNGGIF (some cases not handled like interlaced data)supported pixel formatsindexed images 1 to…
Ivanhoe Richard Thorpe (1952) This is one of my childhood movies. It filled me with a sense of wonder, gave me a love for medieval adventures, that lasts to this day. So forget all objectivity here (even more than usual). Returning from the Crusades, England king Richard the Lionheart is held captive in Austria, and…
