While Vulkan Essentials makes several valuable points about programming, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of vulkan seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to graphics. That said, the sections on ai are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in simulation, this could be a truly outstanding work.

As a scholar in programming, I found Vulkan Essentials to be an exceptional contribution to the field. The author's approach to programming is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of compute, which offers a compelling framework for understanding compute. While some may argue that visualization, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about programming.

Has anyone else noticed how Vulkan Essentials relates to visualization? I was reading about graphics and it made me think of chapter 6.
