Bindless textures in OpenGL are surprisingly painless.

A simple glGetTextureHandleARB + glMakeTextureHandleResidentARB and I was able to upload per-material u64 handles as sampler2D in a shader storage buffer after enabling the support via "#extension GL_ARB_bindless_texture : require".

I'd say it's literally easier this way than using the vanilla texture mechanism in OpenGL.

Los enlaces profundos nos permiten enlazar a una sección (palabra, frase, párrafo) de una web de forma muy sencilla y compatible con todos los navegadores modernos.

Yo pensaba, de hecho, que era una tecnología experimental solo aplicable a los navegadores basados en Chromium, pero @jorgesanz@mapstodon.space me descubrió recientemente que Firefox también es totalmente capaz de acceder a ellos y solamente le falta añadir una opción para crearlos. Algo que se puede subsanar con una extensión como Link to Text Fragment (a la espera de que llegue la función nativa).
