If you are doing art Krita is a fine Photoshop replacement. So I can understand the switch. But I'm also a little amazed that there still isn't a good Photoshop replacement. I think that's because a lot of developers think Ph

Is this really forward path tracing as in "follow the photons from a light source"? I'm very interested in forward rendering but it has always been slow as hell because it's very hard to predict which ray of light will e

I think the keyword here is "state". A lot of bad code is written because people think they need to access (global) state all the time. Maybe you drunk too much good practice-aid ;)

'Weyk' is old Dutch for 'wijk' (area/district) which is smaller than a borough. In the town Sliedrecht there is also an area called 'Merwebolder' which is a small 'wijk' for mentally disabled peo

Plants need CO2 to grow. Most of the time CO2 is added. So I don't think CO2 production from lighting is an issue.

Does anyone know if there is a manager like this one but based on the concept used in Blender (blender.org)? I realy like the concept in Blender where you can divide the screen the way you like and select a view(controller) per division.
