Make it a template (parameterized with coefficient and solution type) and you'll get very generic and efficient solution across all mentioned 'dialects' of c(++). It has the added bonus that this routine can be converted to vector form almo

Tried to switch to Apple hardware, actually. Got a lot of hate towards them. Sensitivity is good, but precision is awful. Mouse has strange dynamic, leading to irrepeatable behaviour. I'm genuinely surprised that Apple turned me away by hav

How do you deal with absence of PgUp/PgDn and Home/End? I've honestly tried for 2 weeks to get comfortable with MacBook, but feel that the keyboard is simply bad.

Then you'd have a point where tax = 100%, or at least where income after taxes doesn't increase with increase in income before taxes. Thus you completely destroy the motivation of some very important enterpreneurs that just want to earn mor

OTOH, underground trains never suffer from traffic congestions. I feel more comfortable spending constant 0.5 hours in the underground than spending variable 0.3–2.5 hours in a traffic jam.

Low-level image procesing library supporting multiple pixel formats. How would you support anything from float16_t to int64_t without templates? And with templates you can selectively rewrite functions for some types in assembly. The API of

Except when you do serious computations the MacBook Pro begins to squall serously. If you do nothing, then yes, it's better even than Windows.

Well, there are no graphics cards except AMD and NVIDIA (for Intel doesn't make discrete cards). And someone's a GPGPU developer who develops for various bleeding-edge Radeons and Teslas.

It seems like only in 7.1 have they added features that were on SGS2 since the beginning. And actually, were it not for these stupid blue gradients on scrolling (that appeared in recent update), I find TouchWiz perfect.

After working 1.5 years on soft-realtime video processing systems (and game development fits this category), I feel like there's no real alternatives to C++. Because (1) when you have performance problems you can inspect the code in the dis

The author is excited that functions have their inverses by default, I think. Analogous construct in Python would be somethoug like: with_under do_something() as f: ... translated to f = do_something() ... f.undo_somethin

Normally, the deallocation of the destroyed object has no visible effect, and you're not expected to do anything with object after it's destroyed. So, in case of C++, object is destroyed when goes out of scope, but the physical act of deall

Maybe we should try a new format for tutorials: audio-only lecture with screencast appendix, sort of 30m lecture, 5–10m screencast. This way you would get interested and prepared for understanding the video.

On the other side: a bipolar genius will hate the small team where everyone knows what he's not doing now, not taking into account that in 1 day out of 10 he deals with 50x the amount of shit that could save the big team where noone cares.

A bit offtopic, but we of image processing do use integers a lot: they're fast, single SSE instruction processing whole 16 uint8s at once.

OpenCV originated at Intel and was based on Intel's IPL. Some researchers prefer the term 'machine vision' as more general, referring to the entire field of artificial vision problems, not necessarily involving a 'computer' in common terms
