egg changed the topic of #principia to: Logs: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/principia | <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly…
<queqiao--> <e​gg​> We think that the most problematic performance issue is not actually computing these lines, but plotting them; and we are thinking about doing the CPU part of the plotting asynchronously.

<queqiao--> <A​l₂​Me​₆> You mean, in terms of the Unity APIs?
<queqiao--> <A​l₂​Me​₆> I wonder if you can write up some vertex shaders to handle the color, that seems like an expensive operation to me

<queqiao--> <e​gg​> No, in terms of what we do before shipping the vertex buffer to Unity.

<queqiao--> <B​ut​ch​er​> Do the whole thing in compute shaders. 🧠
<queqiao--> <e​gg​> Given that the whole thing depends on half of Principia, I think that’s not going to happen
<queqiao--> <e​gg​> (In particular, we do the reference frame conversions lazily as we pick the points to plot along the trajectory. The reference frame conversions depend on the ephemeris, including force computations.)
<queqiao--> <B​ut​ch​er​> I suspected it would not be a trivial conversion

<raptop> Some cats shed a lot, and it is getting towards summer
<queqiao--> <B​ut​ch​er​> Yeah it turned warm recently, so I guess that's why.

<queqiao--> <J​oe​y_​De​st​ro​ya​h> I doubt this works with principia
