Since 2007, the intro curriculum uses Python, not Scheme.

I was on the subway and saw "DON'T LEAN ON DOOR" and remembered this thread. Your comment about "this" and internet shorthand and memes is not related to your grammaticality judgement, unless you are admitting to co

I disagree with your judgement about the grammatically of the utterance. And if you've ever written comments about anything, for example, someone's writing or pictures, you'll probably say things like "me in Peru" o

from what I can tell, gnuspeech is fully synthesized speech. Siri, for example, uses a voice actor to say tens of thousands of utterances, and in order to generate words/phrases that don't exist, they concatenates (more or less) s

Yes, it is impossible for a compiler to know the size of a matrix whose size is determined at runtime. But a lot of times you do know the size of matrices and not only is it more type-safe to have the type of a matrix be parametrized by its

as far as I know, Eigen is type-safe only with regards to dimensions of vector spaces. It can check at compile time that a dot product is taken over two compatibly-sized vectors, or that a matrix-matrix multiply makes sense dimensionally. I

did you ever measure the latency? If a scene is strobing, you might notice a considerable phase offset that would probably be jarring. It would be nice to see this performance measure.

The math is not just standard physics. That undermines the essences of the difficulties of doing physical simulations. Many of the design choices have to do with numerics, discretization of time, collision detection, etc. Physics doesn'
