[2:02:27][Q&A]
[2:03:18][@dithinas][Q: Here's a good side-by-side example of the artifacts you're talking about[ref

url=https://www.shadertoy.com/view/ltBGWc]][:filtering :rendering :research :sampling]
[2:13:39][@raf_85][Q: Children of Morta looks like a fairly ambitious game. Why do you think they didn't bother to implement proper sub-pixel :rendering?][:filtering :sampling]
[2:14:14][@xrxr13579][Q: How did you learn about this artifact / how did you figure out the cause?][:filtering :rendering :sampling]
[2:14:58][@frostyninja][Q: That Shadertoy is by our very own @d7samurai!]
[2:15:13][@omgitsmoe11][Q: Someone posted a link before saying Unity has a pixel perfect 2D package[ref

[2:18:02][@gigasightmedia][@handmade_hero How much more work / is any extra work required for oblique viewing?][:filtering :rendering :sampling]
[2:18:33][@zrizi][Q: (Off-topic) How is Pow function implemented? How would you go about implementing an efficient power?[ref
site="SLEEF Vectorized Math Library"
url=https://sleef.org/]][:mathematics]
[2:23:38][@zrizi][Q: I thought for cosine and sine we would use a table lookup (instead of series expansion), isn't it?][:mathematics]
[2:27:10][@longboolean][Q: Is there ever a reason not to compute your pixels this way? Is this a 2D only thing, etc?][:filtering :rendering :sampling]
[2:27:50][@xrxr13579][Q: It seems that this artifact is quite well known, at least in your circle. Is there a name for it?][:filtering :rendering :sampling]
[2:29:12][@gigasightmedia][@handmade_hero: This shader can only address artifacting within the texture, but cannot address sub-pixel occlusion artifacting (i.e. the shimmer is still present on exterior edge pixels)][:filtering :rendering :sampling]
[2:30:23][@Brian][Q: It was surprising to see how much latency was on division. Square root seems to have a similar latency, but reciprocal square root (i.e. _mm_rsqrt_ps) is as quick as multiply (with just half the throughput). Why is rsqrt much faster than regular sqrt?[ref

[2:32:54][@Brian][Q: Is there a less precise version of sqrt then? Because a lot of the math we need in games does not need the full precision][:mathematics]
[2:33:34][@ponkkiz][Q: Could you do something similar inspecting some Unreal Engine 4 game and end the engine war for good?][:filtering :rendering :sampling]
[2:34:23][@gigasightmedia][@handmade_hero: So the artifacting still present here is because there is no border-pixel? If the texture were prepared properly, it would address that as well[ref
