Nah, I mean actual lack of exceptions and either silent CTD or worse - continuation without logged error in debug mode. There are reports online (e.g. here, here, here) and I encounter that too with some more complex parts of the code.

Project mention: TIFU by telling my gay friend that playing Minecraft with him and his family was making me homophobic. | reddit.com/r/tifu | 2021-11-17
In any case, I stuck it out and pretended I was having fun, even though I wasn't. I hated every single second of the three hours we played together, after the 1 hour getting connected. But I was doing this to give him a chance to bond with his kids, and not for fun, so I ploughed on through my unhappiness. His kids LOVED it. I have many MANY years of experience, and know a lot of fun tricks I learned with my kids. When we ended, his kids told me they wanted to play with me again soon. I laughed and said "Sure, no problem!" (We were chatting using our home mumble server).

I've uploaded my graphics engine written in DirectX 11 on Github. Here is the link. I've tried to make implementations of all the features as straightforward as possible so they are all inside renderer in corresponding void Pass*() member function. This was inspired by approach seen in https://github.com/PanosK92/SpartanEngine. Hope it helps someone.

ITK
Insight Toolkit (ITK) -- Official Repository. ITK builds on a proven, spatially-oriented architecture for processing, segmentation, and registration of scientific images in two, three, or more dimensions.
Yeah, Prolog is pretty cool!
Another technology I found interesting too learn is ITK (https://itk.org/). You need a different mindset using ITK than other image processing libraries.
Lisp is cool as well.
And fully homomorphic encryption.
