Probably coincidental but the fish iconography reminded me immediately of David Siegel's "Creating Killer Web Sites" "follow the fish" navigation: http://www.killersites.com/killerSites/core.htm

This is neat! I recently worked on something similar (on a much smaller scale!) for a low resolution bitmap font. The code is a hack but basically takes pixels in a GIMP file, converts them to vectors, and eventually spits out a TrueType fo

Sounds awesome! When I was in school I made a "Game Boy with vector graphics" using an FPGA and a microcontroller. I synthesized a GPU and display driver on the FPGA and sent vector drawing commands from the microcontroller which

Thank you for your response. I know open source games aren't the norm, but they do exist and are something to be encouraged and discovered. For example, consider Quadrilateral Cowboy[0], which is a recent game made available on all pla

This seems like a reasonable and constructive question and not one I was expecting to be downvoted. Care to leave a response with your vote?

Gordon Lee[0] has made a ton of sophisticated SVGs for Wikipedia and its projects and recently presented at Wikimania. The Burj Khalifa[1] is one of my favorites. Inspired, I wrote this short script for fun that chops up a Blender file into

I like some of the features of their window managers but I don't think Xubuntu and MATE have much support for HiDPI yet and, in general, seem to lag behind stock Ubuntu.

I haven't finished it but I read most of the late James Stewart's "Calculus: Early Transcendentals" and found it very instructive. It would make a good supplement for anyone learning Calculus.
