Antirender: remove the glossy shine on architectural renderings

Ideally the model would be run locally in the browser, so the author isn't paying whatever they're paying. But the web standards to do complicated stuff locally aren't there yet and probably will never be.

That's not a practical answer but it's my two cents.

I wish I could give him two cents without having to try. HTTP status 402 with micropayments or something needs to become a thing. The platforms do it... (subs, tips, donations, rewards etc etc.) Why can't the web.

I had an idea for a library used to collect how much you owe who:

Yup, the technology exists to do this, but saying such words on HN will lead to critics.

All you need is WASM surely? I expect this model is too big to download & run on local CPUs though.

Maybe, but WASM still has its limitations and pains. If you compile with emscripten you're still using thousands lines of generated javascript to glue the wasm and javaecript together.
