21:59 < matches> But if you zoom in too far it starts to get classifications totally wrong
22:02 < matches> Yeah I have an abstract due in 2 weeks
22:02 < matches> so screwed

+13:42 < matches> Ok, let's not use floating point values for colours
+13:42 < matches> Baad
+13:43 < matches> Bad bad
+13:43 < matches> Bad sheep
+13:43 < matches> The project isn't about precision of representable colours
+13:44 < matches> So I'm perfectly OK with using uint8 for colour components
+18:53 < matches> Is it too late to change the aim of the project to "render svg-tests/fox.svg but without antialiasing"
+18:54 < matches> "Or using the GPU"
+18:55 < matches> Well, I understand why shading doesn't usually use flood fill now anyway
+18:55 < matches> But I still kind of think flood fill is better at high resolutions
+18:56 < matches> Not parallelisable I guess
+18:56 < matches> ... Or is it
+18:57 < matches> I was going to try and do arbitrary precision stuff but it seems we can no longer compile unless Real == double or float

+17:26 < matches> It would seem Mr Munroe has beaten us...
+17:28 < matches> In Javascript
+17:28 < matches> We should die of shame
+17:29 < matches> Hahaha
+17:29 < matches> "// there is no elegance here. only sleep deprivation and regret"
+17:31 < matches> On the bright side, we now have a reason to reference xkcd
+17:31 < matches> I guess?
+17:59 < sulix> I just saw that, and had planned to use that comment as my next commit message.

+10:59 * sulix sulix also engages panic mode.
+11:00 * sulix apparently also needs to engage sleep mode.
+11:00 * sulix almost engaged sheep mode by mistake.
+11:49 < sulix> How sure are you that SolveCubic works?
+18:37 < matches> Well, sure within 1e-4
+19:40 < matches> Rational<Gmpint> compiles again
+19:41 < matches> It just takes... several minutes... to load "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
+21:04 < matches> I have a new ingenius plan
+21:06 < matches> This will probably not work but hopefully it won't take me too long...
+21:06 < matches> Oh dear what am I saying
+21:06 < matches> It's going to take a month now
+22:24 < matches> I really should be integrating one of those two libraries Rowan suggested into the project
+22:24 < matches> As opposed to implementing what I like to call the "Paranoid Number"
+22:25 < matches> It starts as a float
+22:25 < matches> It checks each operation for an exception, and if it does it adds the operation to a linked list instead
+22:25 < matches> After trying to simplify the next elements in the list
+22:26 < matches> This is going to be awful
+22:26 < matches> But it's been a while since I wrote a good linked list
+22:32 < matches> ... I think the last linked list I wrote had a nasty tendency to randomly segfault...
+22:32 < matches> Nevertheless we shall forge ahead
+23:14 < matches> You know you haven't had enough sleep when you start to terminate lines with ':' instead of ';'
+23:14 < matches> I blame python
+23:14 < matches> Not that it was valid python syntax either
+23:15 < matches> But it's a good scapesnake
+23:42 < matches> Oh recursive list based functions
+23:42 < matches> How I have missed you
+23:42 < matches> void Foo() {if (m_next != NULL) m_next->Foo();}
+23:42 < matches> <3
