docs(twitter): add 1588515348223254528 corpus (NOTimothyLottes VK ~1500 lines overhead + @rianflo)

3-post thread with @rianflo, Nov 4 2022. Vulkan 'patches and wires'
might be a sweet spot (kinda like Xcode visualization of Metal but
reverse). VK: ~1500 lines of overhead (including header src, no
includes) for complete hotrod bind-everything-only-once compute-only
gfx engine. Not a fan of VK bloatware API complexity but can be
minimized and exposes enough to do 'wonderfull things to the hardware.'
Earliest known line-count for his VK engine - context for the Dec
2023 retrospective (1736161886079533186) which shows the
fully-articulated design.

I am not huge fan of “patches and wires” but Vulkan might be a sweet spot for that.
Kinda like what the Xcode visualization of metal does. But reverse.

@rianflo Vulkan: ~1500 lines of overhead (including header src, as I don't include) for complete hotrod bind-everything-only-once compute-only gfx engine. Not a fan of VK bloatware API complexity, but frankly it can be minimized, and exposes enough to do wonderfull things to the hardware.
