[1:44:12][@stuckpanda][Q: Which headers do you include for working with OpenGL?][:hardware]
[1:44:31][@0lpbm][Q: How long until you'll move all of this to the GPU?][:hardware]
[1:46:12][@praet_a51][Q: Why did inlining GetBoxSurface() in RayCast() result in such an improvement?][:optimisation]
[1:47:54][@frostyninja][Q: Will the :lighting boxes remain sort of separate from the rest of the render commands flow?][:rendering]
[1:48:09][@praet_a51][Q: Great stream by the way and the :lighting looks great][:rendering]
[1:48:43][@filiadelski][Q: In my engine I have 3D models that contain a buffer of uint8 which is cast to a struct which contains OpenGL handles for the model. My instinct is to hide the OpenGL stuff from the game engine itself - is this a good idea or should I just give in to the OpenGL overlords and put #include <GL/gl.h> in my game code? Maybe I'm just being dogmatic][:hardware]
[1:50:14][@skyvaultgames][Q: When the Jai programming :language stabilizes, will you be considering using it for future handmade projects?]
