SHALOM

After devRant, kiwifarms and every *chan imageboard feel like safe spaces.

Engineering is easy, people are hard....

The fuck is it with the three or so "anti german" accounts?

Congrats @retoor on hitting 10K !!

New idea: Fuck raytracing for global illumination because you just need too many rays for it to converge

What if we do surfels (to keep the number of probes down and relevant to our scene) and we update the 4x4-ish sized hemisphere irradiance maps not by tracing a single ray per frame per surfel. I have a fast as shit compute shader rasterizer... What if I just raster each surfel each frame? Should be around the same number of pixels as the primary visibility so totally feasible....

Each frame just jitter the projection a bit and voila. Should have extremely high quality diffuse global illumination at well below 1 ms. Holy shit this might just work

Okay so my last idea has one big problem: I need to project vertices into a single space which encompasses an entire hemisphere. AND straight lines need to remain straight when projected.

That's not something a typical projection matrix can do. Damn. I'm thinking maybe something like octahedral projection? [1]

But I'm not sure there's an answer. Else I would have to chop up the hemisphere into parts and try rastering each tri for each view. Ugh, that sucks

Making python 2x faster by replacing enums with literal values.

Pros, it's faster, cons, it's unreadable.

God I miss compiled languages. At least optimizing them requires intelligent problem solving.

It's a text parser state machine transition so it's a code hot spot, so this kind of optimization is worthwhile. But it's kinda annoying.

Next is get rid of any semblance of readability and replace the match with an array index...

- I do threat intel.
- Oh yeah? Name 4 critical vulnerabilities.
- Fortinet.
- That's on me, I set the bar too low.

Cmon connect the dots

I FINALLY comprehend list comprehensions.
I can write an unlimited amount of nested loops on a single line and make other less experienced people hate me for fun and profit.

Also learned about map() #I hate it#, zip(which is awesome), and the utility of lambdas (they're okay).

Enumerate is pretty nifty too, only thing I lose is setting the initial value of the iterator index.

" Guy Zaken, Mizrahi’s friend and co-driver of the bulldozer, provided further insight into their experience in Gaza. “We saw very, very, very difficult things,” Zaken told CNN. “Things that are difficult to accept.”

The former soldier has spoken publicly about the psychological trauma endured by Israeli troops in Gaza. In a testimony to the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, in June, Zaken said that on many occasions, soldiers had to “run over terrorists, dead and alive, in the hundreds.”

WILL SOMEBODY THINK OF THE GENOCIDERS

A pizza is a real time pie chart of how much pizza is left.

I'll see myself out...

nothing

I keep coming back to read this comment. Out of all the interactions I've had with y'all here, this one has hit me the hardest.

how to be a shitty client:
- have a legacy database where column names are misspelled and everything is nullable
- hire external help which instead of helping break the ui (bonus points for breaking the api too)
- demand a very much custom auth logic but decide to use aws cognito for shits and giggles
- demand 1hr daily meetings
- demand biometric auth with 0 knowledge of how biometric auth works (the previous devs just had a face id prompt which does nothing and retrieved email and password saved on the device???)
- message me at 2am because you don't understand how timezones work + demand a build while you're at it
- call me a "heretical pagan" because i took a day off on a holiday you don't celebrate (???)

i could go on but i think this is enough

5 more classes. i just gotta finish this semester and do my thesis and I'll be free. fuck this place

gitlab pipeline fails because it apparently has the wrong credentials

i don't recall doing anything to the credentials on my merged feature branch

worked fine last week

i am not familiar with the pipeline, i don't see any recent changes to it

do you guys think bigfoot is real?

Why arguing with each other while we could reunite and hunt those spammers together?

I will never understand how some retarded angular dev will overengineer a trivial HTTP request, make it an observable and feel like they're the most clever guy on earth

Work does not make me wealthy.

Can't sleep. Nothing to do besides telling @Demolishun he lost the game again and try to sleep again I guess. Good night

tools doing things you didn't ask them to is intuitive. Your're just a dinosaur, Harry. Get with the times

We're a data science company. We do medical research. We have patented results.

My manager describes half of our code base as on par with a random number generator. At least 1 part of our pipeline overfits random data with 99.9% accuracy.

My manager is a wise man.

Hi, people, i dont post often on here but here goes.
