was fruitlessly trying to find an error in my rasterizer code, until I understood that there is an error here:https://microsoft.github.io/DirectX-Specs/d3d/archive/D3D11_3_FunctionalSpec.htm#3.4.2.1%20Top-Left%20Rule

Nonlinearity in processing composite colour & sound would result into intermodulation distortion. This could be mitigated by increasing sound/line ratio by 1001/1000. Instead FCC decided to reduce

Recently I wanted to contribute to a tool I've been using for some time. Turned out it was a web-site-as-an-app. Spent 2 days to add couple of UI elements with a simple functionality talking to an MCU. Now I know why that tool reset to initial page after some actions. Just JS throwing exceptions.
