Following Vulkan Tutorial

The classic GitHub commit message that says it all. When diving into Vulkan (that notoriously complex graphics API that makes OpenGL look like a children's toy), this dev's only documentation is a README file warning potential recruiters about the horror show inside. It's the programming equivalent of those "Abandon All Hope" signs at the entrance to Hell. The best part? They committed it just 3 minutes ago - probably right after realizing their code is an unholy abomination that would make even seasoned graphics programmers weep.

I Fear No API... Except Vulkan

The bravado of developers who claim they "fear no API" only to cower in terror at the sight of Vulkan is just *chef's kiss*. For the uninitiated, Vulkan is the low-level graphics API that makes even seasoned graphics programmers wake up in cold sweats. It's like saying "I'm great at assembling IKEA furniture" and then being handed the blueprints to build the actual IKEA store from scratch. The documentation alone is thicker than a computer science textbook, and the error messages might as well be written in ancient Sumerian. Meanwhile, OpenGL (referenced in the title) is like the friendly neighborhood graphics API that suddenly looks like a cuddly kitten in comparison.
