I went for a long walk with Dog-oh today. He kept trying to turn around earlier but I got him to go past the duck ponds.
I also paced around the house watching videos on my smartphone and did a bit of gardening.
In the evening my son and I played disc golf and I scored four over par on nine baskets.
Lot's of the bushes are flowering now, here's a picture of one:
Here's a bush near the end of the path where I turned around:
I also did a lot of testing today on the WebGL output of the Godot game development engine. It ended up crashing my computer. The test application runs just fine under the Linux desktop but crashes as a web application after briefly showing a display.
I've had a long history doing 3D on web applications so this doesn't surprise me much.
At one point I almost had a client lined up to do some 3D product displays using Adobe Flash and Away3D. It is not an easy workflow to create the 3D models in a way that looks photo real and display them on a web page. Apple pretty much destroyed Flash because of security issues and high CPU use.
It was kind of disappointing because Flash was just starting to get more support at using the GPU and 3D on the web was looking possible. Before Flash Java was a option too but it took at lot or resources to install and run.
Oh well. I wasted lots of time and spent a lot on software at that time but that is okay. Maybe if Flash was open source some of the hardware and security issues could have been fixed.
It does look promising that something called Vulkan might have enough hardware vendors behind it to give 3D another chance on the web. It sounds like Godot will change to use Vulkan so maybe things will improve.
Meanwhile it doesn't look like the existing solutions will work well unless I code in javascript for WebGL but that doesn't work on all the web browsers anyway.
Maybe I'll do some more 2D game application testing tomorrow. Sorry for babbling, this is probably way more information on my day than you are interested in but 3D modeling was kind of an initial focus of my blog.
Thanks for reading! I always value your support and comments. The pictures were taken by me with my Galaxy S9+. Text and graphics copyright lightsplasher & litesplasher.

I really have no idea about coding and other computer-related work but I believe you can accomplish what you are doing there.
Those bushes are attractive :DIt is a good thing that you are still playing disc golf @lightsplasher it is a good way to enjoy the day plus gardening is really fulfilling to do.
I do like to stay busy doing things and also have the time for just relaxing. I feel fortunant at this time, but it does take me effort to stay in balance.
Amazing flowers!

A good actifit count this is
It's great. As I plan my son's homeschooling. It gives me a lot of great questions. I think we need to explore both coding and computer mechanics. Lots to learn. The rhodos were beautiful:)
There is certainly a lot of different things to look into and study. Let me know if there is anything you want to hear more about. I think it is wonderful that you are planing homeschooling.
We go a lot to museums, concerts and science centers. That helps a lot.
Well I'll admit that all the technical stuff was over my head, but it's obvious you know a great deal about the subject. Good activity and some very pretty flowers. I have developed quite a love for snapping flower photos on my walks.
This time of year is really a nice time to take flower pictures around here. Having a camera on a phone makes it really fun and easy. I'll try not to put too much technical stuff out there, it was kind of a rant in some ways. I feel like there is so much more we could be doing if there were more agreement and cooperation around things.
I know you are more attuned to crypto than I am. I wondered if you have been hearing about the EOS announcement coming June 1?
I have not heard anything about that. Something is happening?
Looks interesting - using facial recognition and finger print identification for proving each account is linking to one person is a good idea. I'm not sure what they are up to though.
