[2:02:02][Q&A][:speech]
[2:02:54][@davechat][Q: Does ~4coder support indenting of shader code yet?]
[2:04:19][@bryanwwag][Q: Personally I've only ever used LRU caches. Have you ever used LFU, and has it worked well?][:memory]

[2:11:05][@bryanwwag][LFU has more overhead than LRU. More accounting, but statistically it supposedly converges to the same expected values][:memory]
