That would be so so sso fun and something i’ve been trying to do ever since my qreverse write-up is automate a way to visualize simd intrinsics like these ones i made…

I’ve explored a lot of options and the best one I have at the moment is to generate them using SVG animations to visualize the 128/256/512-bit registers and how their individual epi8/epi16/epi32/epi64/etc elements change and react to certain operations like shuffles and sum-absolute-differences and such but it’s quite the feat that even others are dealing with.

Right now though I am currently on the look-out for some kind of blogging platform to serve basic markdown write-ups of little snippets I write that aren’t worthy of a whole github repo. Like recently I wrote, fast parallel fibonacci number generation (mod32, mod64) using SIMD intrinsics and matrices, a fast way to calculate the average color in an image, a fast way to calculate two determinants at once using SIMD, and a very, very fast point-in-triangle test using a very tiny amount of simd instructions and I’m just about to explode in these backlogged snippets that I’m trying to find a good place to document them.

I’m looking at places like hosting a hugo on github pages (which, doesn’t really sit right with me at the moment as github pages and all these static-site generators feel really cluttery to me) and I’ve happened upon dev.to which seems really good but seems to be really.. webdev/career oriented for a C/C++/SIMD/assembly/reverse engineering/gpu/etc guy like me. Medium hasn’t seemed all that great lately either…

Cool snippets and write-ups looking for a home… I might just.. settle on gist or something even, which I did at one point.
