Having done both web and gl ux for a living, I think you might be overestimating the complexity of a gl implementation and underestimating the complexity of meeting the same specs using a web implementation.

While not quite the same thing, if you have the time, dip your toes into some immediate mode UI, for example imgui. It is enjoyable not a grind.

Im sure I’m not the only person thinking 24 years is way too long for such an important advancement.

Huge respect for those in this field or others that don’t give up after so many years. Thank you

This is definitely the nicest all in one that I’ve seen yet. I guess there is a market for this somewhere but I don’t get who.

At 45k though, they really should have used a mount that doesn’t suffer from field rotation on longer exposures.

Also, the tube seems long, would have went with a more compact design OTA and a wider aperture.

I’m happy to see the full frame sensor with 16bit ADC, seems no expense was spared there.

Whenever one of these threads about Google (or Apple) come up, I am shocked at the lack of response from people working at those companies. It seems reasonable that this site would be where you'd find someone from a team that interacted with logic that OP is having trouble with.

I'd expect to see something like a "hey, yeah, I know a guy on our team that might be able to get in touch with the team who maintains this. I've sent them this thread"...

I'm hoping OP got a private message.

They are forecasting a lower demand in the short term future. I’d guess they ran the numbers and producing fewer high cost items is more cost effective for them.

Unfortunately, this likely means more shortages and costs stay high for the consumer.
