Not a physicist, but I think temperature lives in motion of particles, let it be electrons, the nucleus, whole atoms, or otherwise. Because electrons shroud the nucleus and have much less mass, they are more prone with external interactions

Yep, I was thinking about a lenslet array system with NxN subpixel under each lenslet. The subpixels are view dependent by emitting light directionally using fish eye magnification of the lenslet. For 64x64 subpixel resolution (giving you a

I'm not sure this is even worth the effort. The claims about efficient use of land area and water with this technique is questionable. I tried this myself, and some of the major issues I found is that corn seems to out compete companio

They lag because some Porter and Duff layer composition modes require textures at the size of the parent bounding box enclosing all objects. Bigger the texture, the more resource demanding the composition becomes.

That's a false analogy. Variable renames does not change anything, it's still the exact replica of the algorithm in question. Also, in engineering and computer science circles, cloning designs or code is often regarded as an accep
