Humble reader here! I think #ray-tracing should be split because bvh traversing and brdfs are 2 different topics that, imho, deserve their own channel. Also maybe #sdf-of-the-month can be put next to #ray-tracing and be renamed to #ray-marching.
##ray-casting channel

I'm confused what your vision is here. BRDFs are applicable whether you are ray tracing or ray marching. Arguably that topic is better suited for #graphics-techniques or #mathematics
I wouldn't be opposed to a dedicated BRDF/BSDF channel, aka the Veach thesis reading club

That's the point. I just think that the discussions about brdfs and ray casting should be in separate channels.
