It's a fun experiment into WebGL and graphics programming. I intended it to be a cool tool for getting inspiration for designing and creating other art in general. I do eventually want to build this out into a larger set of tools that would allow you to quickly iterate and build out various aesthetics for designing.
In it's current state, it's mostly practical for creating pretty images and videos that you could use in other projects. If there's more interest I could possibly turn it into more, would love to hear ideas and suggestions!
Author here, you're mostly right in that it's a show piece. However, it uses no external libraries, I built it all myself using VanillaJS. I do use some famous noise algorithms, specifically Simplex noise and a method of domain warping.
I have the Ford Ranger with the 2 litre biturbo diesel engine in Australia. It is so good it's hard to conceive that a better vehicle could be possible.
Never say never. All it takes is one case of the encrypted data being outside a secure setting due to the 'human' factor, and then this mandated backdoor can be used to decrypt it.
Of course, they won't ever mandate a backdoor be added in their encryption system
RAID is great but without monitoring and alerting you can still have a problem. Better still is the automatic creation of incident records and escalation.
mdadm can be scripted using any ordinary system health monitoring system. On some servers I was responsible for, I had automatic monitoring setup configured to send e-mail the instant any drive failure was noticed.
This is one of the nice things with open software. I can't imagine the trouble it would be to do the same for a proprietary raid card.
