Same with Chrome on Windows 11. I opened the vercel home page using the url once after which it stopped crashing when clicking on the logo.

I will believe it when I see it. I have been feeling really helpless and hopeless recently about Windows. So hopefully this news turns into something real.

Same thing caught my eye. They are usually sparse.

There are other quite elegent methods for triangle and simplices.

For a triangle, drawing α and β uniform over [0,1) the barycentric coordinates given by (1-sqrt(α), sqrt(alpha)(1-β), βsqrt(alpha)) is uniform over the triangle. No rejection and no test for flipping.

For simplices (triangle, tetrahedron, 5-cell etc) barycentric coordinates obtained by drawing uniformly from (0,1] taking a log and normalizing will be uniform within the simplex.

I wrote about this and other related sampling below.
