A voxel is no more a cube that a pixel is a square: it's a sample point. For each sample point you store material information and the value of a scalar field at this point. You can then compute normals to the sampled surface using some

Charb, one of the victims (and maybe the main target) said in 2012: "Je n'ai pas de gosses, pas de femme, pas de voiture, pas de crédit. C'est peut-être un peu pompeux ce que je vais dire, mais je préfère mourir debout que vi

If you can't observe a difference, does it matter?

Because "home-made" has no strict (legal) definition so it's not illegal to lie or to approximate (the topping is home-made).

The problem is not that JS is worst than links or forms. It's the most potent hypermedia technique (code-on-demand) but it lays behind the Turing horizon: you can't statically determine what it's doing.

Minitel killer app was the yellow pages. The other predominant usages were mail order and sex chats/porn. Some games too but nothing significant and nothing social, at scale at least.

I don't get if you imply that Clojure has pervasive laziness or not. The contract of lazy sequences is too loose to make tying the knot not a brittle hack -- and I think it's a good thing.

Tying the knot is possible only if you have pervasive laziness.

There's no bitvector in clojure persistent vectors. The difference between vectors and a hashmap without the hashing stage is that a persistent vector can't be sparse!

CSS px unit is not device pixel anymore. In this context 2x does not mean that the image is twice as big in px but that it should be used if the device pixel/px ratio is >=2

More often than not it's a variation of b) not involving custom attrs (a matter of taste). It's the same kind of contracts you have to set up if you are also doing some heavy JS anyway. Sometimes the design is forced upon the team (eg corpo

By doing such a change they violates their contract. Can't you negotiate an alternative change? Eg the strong around the span or using styles instead of strong or move the username class to the strong tag? Anyway if you really want to progr

Printing money means inflation and inflation is bad for debt owners (unless the debt is in another currency) and indeed also for "matresses".

Well, while peculiar, "quatre-vingt dix" is not a unit: nobody is going to say "4 quatre-vingt dix" for 360.

Producing more money doesn't fix bad spending policies but it reduces debt -- both private and public -- at the expense of the lenders. It's also a way to alter the capital/work incomes ratio. There is, rightly, a German trauma towards deva
