I disagree. This problem exists even when the fog is completely absent and also distorts the objects at the sides of the screen regardless of the fog's presence or absence. I guess you could use fog, rendered in a particular way, to

Even the Soviet article 58-1c, which introduced criminal penalty specifically for the family members in case they did not report the treason to authorities, only applied a) if the traitor was in the military service; b) only in cases when t

By the way, does anyone know how to modify the standard perspective projection to have a spherical cap instead of the flat rectangle as its far clipping plane? Having the flat rectangle means that you can see further from the corner of your

Ah, so there is no backtracking in lexer for this case. Makes sense.

If the opening quotes are followed by anything that is not a whitespace before the next new-line (or EOF), then it's a single-line string. I imagine implementing those things took several iterations :)

This is not a piece of code I would commit, obviously! It's a piece of code in the middle of being written and re-written (and re-run, a la REPL), and constantly replacing "resp2" with "_" and back again with "

Gee, imagine if shells with errexit option enabled wrote some diagnostic output to stderr before exiting. "Add your own error checking instead", how do I check which piece of pipeline has failed, exactly? The PIPESTATUS variable i

Reading these very old papers is always quite entertaining: you can feel that they use words like e.g. "routine", or "procedure" not yet as technical terms but as ordinary (if infrequently-used) English words.

I'd rather both have this option and have it work reliably. It's ridiculous that export VAR=$(cmd1 | cmd2) does not count as a pipefail when cmd1 or cmd2 fail but VAR=$(cmd1 | cmd2) does, so the "correct

I am personally not aware of any MBCS that could have a 0x20 or 0x0D as a valid trailing byte. Are you?

Because the polymorphic function called may also need to pass the whole record it was given to some other polymorphic function a la "void storeInGlobalStorage(key: string, value: T)".

And how do you measure the length of a burning rod (that's moving past by you at a considerate speed) in the face of relativity of simultaneity? I guess it's impossible, and so the very concept of length must be meaningless. To ac

I think the Pythagoreans had the same silly crisis about square root of two that you have about the real-valued measurements. And the solution, I believe, would be the same: there simply are two physical things with lengths that relate to e
