Finally, a MagSafe wallet for my phone that feels premium (without the price tag)

ZDNET's key takeaways The UAG Metropolis Wallet is a MagSafe wallet and stand made of vegan leather for $45. It holds up to five cards and cash, has a kickstand, is RFID blocking, and features pockets. It's only available in Black. $44.95 at Amazon $44.95 at Walmart more buying choices As ZDNET's MagSafe expert, I've tried many magnetic accessories, from wallets, grips, and stands to notebooks, battery packs, and beyond. That's why when one catches my eye or edges out something else I've trie

OpenTelemetry for Go: Measuring overhead costs

Everything comes at a cost — and observability is no exception. When we add metrics, logging, or distributed tracing to our applications, it helps us understand what’s going on with performance and key UX metrics like success rate and latency. But what’s the cost? I’m not talking about the price of observability tools here, I mean the instrumentation overhead. If an application logs or traces everything it does, that’s bound to slow it down or at least increase resource consumption. Of course,

CI/CD Observability with OpenTelemetry Step by Step Guide

In the fast-paced world of CI/CD, understanding the performance and behaviour of your pipelines is crucial. GitHub Actions has become a popular choice for automating builds and deployments, but anyone who's debugged a flaky workflow or long-running job knows how challenging it can be to get visibility into what's happening under the hood. We usually rely on build logs, timing data, or guesswork when something goes wrong. Wouldn't it be nice to trace a pipeline run step-by-step, or have metrics o

Shaping Light – Volumetric Lighting

As I became more familiar with post-processing over the past few months, I was curious to push those newly learned techniques beyond pure stylization to achieve something more functional. I wanted to find new ways to enrich my 3D work which wouldn't be possible without leveraging effects and passes alongside custom shaders. As it turns out, post-processing is great entrypoint to enhance a 3D scene with atmospheric and lighting effects, allowing for more realistic and dramatic visuals. Because t

Sparse Voxels Rasterization: Real-Time High-Fidelity Radiance Field Rendering

Our scene representation is a hybrid of primitive and volumetric model. (a) Primitive component. We explicitly allocate voxels primitives to cover different scene level-of-details under an Octree layout. Note that we do not replicate a traditional Octree data structure with parent-child pointers or linear Octree. We only keep voxels at the Octree leaf nodes without any ancestor nodes. (b) Volumetric component. Inside a voxel is a volumetric (trilinear) density field and a (constant) spherical ha
