📺 We interrupt your regular programming for a personal story about the impostor syndrome and perseverance. This image is from around 8 years ago; I had just scrapped a previous toy renderer, and I was making a new one. I got the index buffer wrong, and made this piece of "art".

I should've failproofed my 1+ year old book to foresee all Microsoft's upcoming changes 🙃😜

Okay, LearnOpenGL's SSL issues have been fixed and everything's been moved to a new host. Thanks for being patient! 🙏🏻

LearnOpenGL has a new SSL certificate now, but there's still issues. I'm in contact with the host to resolve them, hopefully it's fixed soon! 🤞🏻

LearnOpenGL's HTTPS certificate expired and you may get 'trusted connection' messages. I'll be switching hosts today/tomorrow so expect some timeouts and/or downtime events.

Yet another (2-part) guest article is live! This time it's order-independent transparency! 🪟🥃🔺🪟 learnopengl.com/Guest-Articles… Thanks so much for all the hard work Mahan!

I've received quite a few requests over the years for a donation platform other than PayPal. After some messing around I now finally have the option for crypto currency donations, which should be a lot more global and accessible.😊🥳
