There was a question in this interview where the interviewer asked what role improvisation played in his performances, and Dylan said absolutely none. I was a bit surprised by this answer but too it at face value. I am a Dylan fan but hav

How is running the same code in two different machines and reporting the results objectively "laughable"?

I don't know if you meant from the consumer perspective, but if my bank started telling me what kind of a phone or computer I needed to have to use their services I would definitely find another bank! I'm not sure if clout is the

Thanks! I'm curious what motivated you to want to use a dual quaternion or why you want a slerp algorithm for that. I have yet to run across a use for a dual quaternion. Wikipedia says that they are used in mechanics to represent ri

I agree, this code is horrendous! It is like trying to read one of those code golf answers. Author seems to pride themselves on a proficiency for packing as much as possible in to one line, which is not a good thing in my opinion. I do th

I'm in the intended audience group then, as a game developer who works on animation regularly but only has a passing familiarity with geometric algebra. You could say I am "GA curious". But I'm afraid I didn't get

Jetbrains makes excellent refactoring tools for multiple languages so I usually use their tools as my gauge of how well a language lends itself to refactoring. As a daily user of Resharper in both C# and C++, I really notice how much poorer

Searching my Macbook using to see if I have this on my machine using lsof, I found that I did not have it. But there is a suspicious "Adobe Desktop Service" listening on localhost:15292. I wonder what sort of fun things that wou

Excellent. I found the PR and was able to run it, I think that will make a good starting point for experimentation. I'm a game developer so pretty experienced with rendering but not so much with Rust, Vulcan, etc and haven't done

This is really inspiring. If I wanted to try to create something like this, what would you recommend as a good starting point, is there an existing sample that you based all of these off? Do you release the source code for your art anywhe

Although the article was mostly about this social media issue, watching the attached video I found Guido's statements about diversity and unconscious bias in Open Source to be a much more interesting part of the interview. (around the

For console development (Sony, Nintendo, XBox), anything but C++ has never seemed like an option because all of the development tools and libraries provided for working on those consoles are C++ centric. But I'm curious if there are an

I can't speak to the comparison with gdb, but as a game developer I have had the misfortune of working with a lot of second rate debuggers that were the only option because they were part of the toolset for that particular game console

As a child in the 1980's my uncle would bring me out to his garage, put a welding mask on my head and have me sit on his tractor in the dark, while he played a tape with Tomita's rendition of Snowflakes are Dancing, and pretended

Yes, I agree completely. Reading the discussions, it seems that the chrome team had sidestepped doing this as it would involve a "non trivial UI" but I am scratching my head wondering how a dialog box that says "do you want

Very cool. I've also had a side-project developing something similar for a while: http://sonicpines.com/fretboard I keep being surprised at people having the same idea e.g., see also Grunfy's post from a few mo

Hello! This is cool, I was really interested in this because I have been building something very similar, a little side project that I started working on some time ago. You can check it out here http://sonicpines.com/fretbo

After watching this I can kind of understand how a blind person would write new code. But I find so much of working on a team with a large codebase is about hunting through mass quantities of code without really knowing what you are lookin
