If you had asked me a couple of years ago the probability that I would find myself in 2014 paid by Microsoft to work full time on open source code, I would have said near zero. And yet here we are!

The GPU profiling feature discussed in my previous post includes a not-very-obvious customization mechanism:

The graphics debugging tool formerly known as PIX has been integrated into Visual Studio for a while now, and gets better in every release. But unlike Xbox PIX, the Windows incarnation of this technology has until now been only for debugging and not profiling. It provided lots of inform…
At the Build conference this week we announced what I've been working on for the last while: Windows Phone 8.1. It's full of cool new stuff, but my contribution was deep in the entrails of the operating system, converging the graphics stack between Phone and desktop Wind…

SimpleMath, created by my colleague Chuck Walbourn, is a header file that wraps the DirectXMath SIMD vector/matrix math API with an easier to use C++ interface. It provides the …

Exogenous exceptions occur due to the messy nature of reality. Filesystems can run out of space. Network connections can drop. These things are rare, but they do happen and robust code needs to be ready …
