I guess a mathematician might look down upon sticking with 2d and 3d stuff because it leaves out all the interesting things that happen at 92382 or negative infinity. But yea, matrices are basically just a convenient way to write rows and r

IMO it's the best side of Microsoft. It's something Apple would never do because the result might be too unpredictable and messy.

I can defend their "chassis" as being ahead of the competition and you basically paying for the time they spent shaving shit off until it's perfect. But that damn touch bar. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the mos

>IMO pagination is garbage UX, any sane GUI tookit can render more then 100 items on screen. Well, I guess that's the web in 2020 in a nutshell, lol. What would you do with a list of 100,000 items? Just slowly scroll them out, one b

With Catalina, I'm also not seeing any major benefit to upgrading. The features list is thin and no 32bit programs kills a lot of random stuff that I can't find a quick replacement for. This is the first time I'm not upgradin

Don't forget that, with the Switch, there was the opposite argument: "Smartphones are so common, nobody would buy a separate gaming device! If you want gaming on the go, you just download Candy Crush on your iPhone." So the &

Frankly I don’t get what the complaints about RAM usage are all about. With video, high res images, megabytes of javascript and 30 tabs open, modern browsing simply takes a lot of resources. I rather have the browser use a lot of cache than

I'm glad the top post in here kind clarifies it as "walking through situations in your head in which you have to explain things to people". Because I constantly do that but I don't need to "talk to myself" to m

IMO vanilla Half-Life 1 is still amazing. Every gun, every enemy has a unique idea to them and requires you playing differently. HL2 kinda streamlined that aspect in favor of “cinematic” presentation which was built around a graphical wow-f

Economics in a nutshell: "There must be a single number that explains all of this!" It can't possibly be that Germany actually built its exports based on quality. That can't be replicated by tweaking some tax laws.

The real headline is that VR is finally confirmed to have hit a major roadblock. If John Carmack gets frustrated with its progress, there's something up. I've long thought that the issue with VR is a conceptual one, not a technica
