< gnolam>
It's interesting to see how people name their papers.
00:28
< gnolam>
Some are bit more... verbose than others.
00:29
< gnolam>
For example, compare
00:29
< gnolam>
Yuksel, House, Keyser: "Wave Particles"
00:29
< gnolam>
with
00:29
< gnolam>
T'so, Barsky: "Modeling and Rendering Waves: Wave-Tracing Using Beta-Splines and Reflective and Refractive Texture Mapping"

#140 was the first problem Iodine solved.

<@simon`>
who is Iodine?
10:52
<@McMartin>
Iodine is my newly-reborn low-power desktop.
10:53
<@TheWatcher>
Why Iodine?
10:53
<@McMartin>
Now all my static machines are named after halogens
10:53
<@McMartin>
The router is named Bromide, originally because routers are kinda boring.
10:54
<@McMartin>
The new gaming rig is Astatine, because it has a half-life of 8.3 hours.
10:54
<@McMartin>
Iodine lies between those two on the Periodic table, and it's of intermediate power, so...
10:54
<@McMartin>
This also lets me call the upgrade task "Project Halogen".
10:55 * TheWatcher chuckles
10:55
<@TheWatcher>
I see
10:55
<@TheWatcher>
Fair enough, beats my habit of using names from Deus Ex >.>
10:56
<@McMartin>
My previous naming scheme was fictional spacemen.
10:56
<@McMartin>
Spiff is being retired, and Zinglon formed the core of Iodine.

< gnolam>
Blargh. My formulae are too long for my layout.
21:34 * Derakon[work] tries to figure out why one single part of the microscope UI flickers if the monitor has been rotated 90?.
21:34
< Derakon[work]>
It's just such a bizarre bug...
21:35
< Derakon[work]>
Everything else draws just fine. And this bit draws fine so long as the display isn't rotated.
21:35
< Derakon[work]>
(We need it rotated so we can fit four 512x512 views into a 2x2 square on the display)
21:36
< gnolam>
Lack of vsync()?
21:36
< gnolam>
Err
21:36
< gnolam>
-()
21:38
< Derakon[work]>
It's been ages since I worked with OpenGL, so I don't remember the appropriate approach here.
21:39
< Derakon[work]>
I do find it suspicious that the bits that flicker are being drawn with wx on an OpenGL canvas.
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
Hmm...found a discussion online that sounds similar, with this bit: "Your Notify() method
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
calls Refresh() which generates a paint event, which calls Onpaint. The
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
OnPaint handler should only be used when the system tells the app that
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
the screen needs updating. In an OnPaint event, it appears that the
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
entire "damgaed region", in this case the whole window, is cleared and
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
re-painted. That's what's causing your flicker."
21:42
< Derakon[work]>
Ugh, stupid newlines. Anyway, Refresh() is called all over the place in the code I'm looking at, of course.
21:48 * Derakon[work] quietly deletes 184 lines from a 692-line file.
21:49
< Derakon[work]>
All of them junk comments.
21:57

developing for this IXP425 board sure is a pain in the tail... but at least it's better than trying to get that Innominate mguard vpn going...

For some reason I just really need my weekend.
22:42
< Derakon[work]>
Well. Weekend/vacation, but I only really need the weekend.
22:42 * Vornicus examines Euler 107, determines that he can do /that/ one in his sleep.
