      Programmers discover shaders and shout “this is how computers should’ve been the whole time!” Then we spend twelve hours trying to turn a circle right-side-up.

      Artists discover shaders and cry. Then they whip out some gorgeous speckled surface with fractal detail and we go “How the fuck?” and they say “I don’t know.”
