It's not just that we got good at dealing with triangles, it's that triangles are really easy to work with. I think the reason for using triangle meshes in 3D printing is for the benefit of the slicer (or its developers) -- the sl

That hack was a common way to render outlines in fixed function pipeline days, yes. It only really works for simple, convex forms and "works" is probably a bit generous. It's far from a general-purpose outline technique and a

It is almost certainly easier (in practice) to perform an edge detection or similar post processing step (usually on depth and/or normal map) in image space to get something that looks like the occluding contour. The utility of that

It's interesting how the writer avoids the issue of homelessness, as if that's an unshakeable pillar of reality. They even touch on the prison population in the U.S. -- comparing a figure from their childhood (when times were good

Why wouldn't you assume they do? Sorry if that sounds argumentative, it's not my intent. As I understand it, their software processes everything you send to/through them. (And it's easy to imagine reasons why they would

I suppose I wouldn't mind it either, so to speak. But I think you should just get assigned an ID number at birth. Ideally it would encode the place and time of your birth, parents' ID numbers and sibling count, what the weather wa
