Tired of this shit.
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:21
Whatever, I'm done here. Have fun shit talking me when I leave.

@whatsisname yes because rep is the only indicator of one's contribution to the network, great observation.
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:18
And the blatant meta-bullcrap that was exhibited today is a clear indicator something is wrong.
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:18
All the greats are leaving and it seems as though nobody cares as to why
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:17
Hans Passant already left. Jeff Atwood jumped ship earlier than him.

I seem to be a dying breed in doing so as well.

I care about its community.

@AaronHall SO has been a central part of my life for 5 years now.

@GlenH7 You can assume all you want.

Your attitude it what is wrong with Stack Exchange.
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:15
You're so caught up in the semantics of my question that you're willing to go so far as to call me out and discredit anything I have to say, just because.
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:15
Yep.
Qix
Nov 24, 2015 18:11
And with that, I bid ye adieu.

So I was going to just leave and leave it at that, but then I saw there was a discussion about my question and I felt responsible to at least explain the reasoning behind the "alien angle".

I learn to understand concepts often times by hyperbole. Crazy, edge case scenarios that completely encapsulate more "real world" scenarios in the event they exist. In my train of thought, if I can define what happens if we have to add an insurmountable number of characters to Unicode, that will likely allow me to understand a lot of "normal" or "real world" concepts surrounding the topic at hand.

For the record, I answered another scope-related question.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 20:06
@MartinBüttner Granted, why not re-word it to be more graphics programming oriented in general? Blurring the lines of scope is a big reason why other betas fail.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 20:02
@tehinternetsismadeofcatz What do you mean?
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 20:02
Does it relate to code behind them? Or is it purely mathematical theory? The latter would be more on-topic at Math.SE.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 20:01
@joojaa that depends; does the question regard how they're implemented in a graphical context?
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:52
@ChrisJester-Young oh xD duh. prays to the shrine of Joel.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:52
@ChrisJester-Young do you guys use Jira over there?
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:51
@ChrisJester-Young ^ exactly. More tickets usually speeds things up, tbh.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:50
@ChrisJester-Young Well as per the general (current) consensus I felt it was off topic. Though it could be reworded and may benefit from a discussion.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:50
@joojaa think of meta sites like a support ticket system. While not completely analogous, would you create one ticket with multiple tasks to be completed?
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:49
@NewMainPosts I raised a VTC on this question. It should be discussed. It asks about something commonly used in CG but doesn't specifically pertain to it. Thoughts?
Qix

@robobenklein so honored ;D

@tehinternetsismadeofcatz It is. That, and compiler design. :D
Qix

@ChrisJester-Young argggg thank you for the edit.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:34
@joojaa Which I'm sure the community mods will do apropros.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:33
Plus I inadvertently launched CG.SE into beta so I feel like I must pay my dues.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:32
Let it be known I'm nowhere near an expert, though CG has always piqued my interest and I've dabbled in it. I want to saturate myself in it more and more, hence why I'm here.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:31
@MartinBüttner That... makes me so happy.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:30
@joojaa This is the first day of the stack being open. These are things we need to ask about ;)
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:30
@MartinBüttner Yes and no. Primarily yes.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:25
@robobenklein I think they declined enabling it for SO due to performance overhead, but that's mainly because SO is one of the "big 3".
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:25
@joojaa cg.SE has a really good reason to enable it...
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:24
SE doesn't have to do anything other than enable it.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:24
@joojaa but mathjax is already implemented.
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:24
If it's too heavy to host, they should take it down on other sites (i.e. math.SE). I doubt CG.SE is going to have much of an added overhead (we're not primarily a math site).
Qix
Aug 4, 2015 19:23
cont. mathjax discussion: That's SE's problem.

That rabbit-hole'd all the way down to imaginary numbers
Qix
Dec 6, 2014 07:13
For instance, I'm learning about FFT so I can implement it in OpenCL (basically a programming language that runs on your GPU -- again, for increased performance)
