One day, this image will be in the slide deck for a CS class, if it isn't already. That's the kind of thing that keeps me going.

Don't forget the geometry shader for special vertex manipulation

no one uses those, especially in Vulkan 'cause it has mesh shaders

The depth buffer is a parameter used to help determine which objects are covering up other objects so that only what should be visible is rendered. Crazy visual artifacts (or glitches) can occur when this isn't configured properly.

TIL what was going on when I was playing Thief and my MC kept being rendered in front of everything in cutscenes. Depth buffer was fucked up
