I love this guy's blog, I just wish there was a way to follow him that wasn't twitter.

I'd love it if they had a mastodon account.






Good catch. Unfortunately my RSS app isn’t displaying the feed. First time I’ve ever encountered this. I’ve reached out to Unread app developer to see if there’s a fix.


Looks like that feed hasn't been updated in (almost exactly) a year. The four most recent blog posts are missing.

Fixed the RSS feed (and sitemap as well since both were not updated) Those scripts were silently skipped since January

Apologies for the inconvenience, it should be updated now!


LOL. I had Unread’s developer communicating with me via email. He was trying to help me troubleshoot for a day when all of a sudden magically the articles appeared. Haha. I mentioned to him maybe you saw my comment, before I saw your message. So funny. Anyways, thank you as I really wanted to follow your blog. Much appreciated.


Yeah, I just had to open twitter to be able to give him feedback, which is annoying because it's an otherwise dead platform to me.

I asked him if anyone suggested experimenting with the Symmetric Nearest Neighbor filter[0], which is similar to Kuwahara but works slightly differently. With a little bit of tweaking it can actually embed an unsharp mask-effect into itself, which may eliminate the need for a separate Sobel pass.

I did some javascript-based experiments with SNN here:

... and have no shader experience myself so no idea how it compares to Kuwahara in terms of performance cost (probably worse though).
