12:05.40 ``Erik heh http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1811646
12:19.38 Yoshi47 now thats funny, you see the phone fight
12:30.31 ``Erik hrm?
12:31.09 Yoshi47 same website,
12:31.29 ``Erik I'm sure I've seen it, not quite recalling which it is
12:31.57 Yoshi47 man do threads take a long time to render!
12:32.35 ``Erik depends on how they're defined
12:32.49 Yoshi47 really accurate!
12:32.56 Yoshi47 from the hex database
12:33.03 ``Erik "hex database"?
12:33.13 ``Erik the thing clock came up with? with all the tgc's?
12:33.14 Yoshi47 off of brlcad.org
12:33.38 Yoshi47 i think so
12:34.20 ``Erik that's a brutal overlap case, try hitting it with facetize and a pretty good tolerance, see if it's still "good enough" and faster
12:34.45 ``Erik (or if you can think of a better way to define them until 'rotate' and 'sweep' are fully online...)
12:34.47 Yoshi47 you lost me!
12:35.09 Yoshi47 i know nothign of facetize
12:35.18 ``Erik the "facetize" command converts geometry to "BoTs", calculated triangle soup
12:36.33 Yoshi47 hrm...
12:36.38 ``Erik instead of computing a bajillion tgc's and doing all the bool weave stuff to get your end bolt, you could facetize it and just have a bunch of triangles to test, instead... should be less computationally expensive to raytrace
12:36.59 Yoshi47 im scared
12:37.08 ``Erik the trick is balancing accuracy vs performance, since it's an approximation
12:37.12 Yoshi47 wondering whats going to happen
12:37.15 ``Erik it's ok, baby, it only hurts at first
12:37.18 ``Erik O;-)
12:37.21 Yoshi47 lol
12:37.55 ``Erik make some scrap geometry like a sphere and try 'facetize' on it, it tesselates the geometry into a new primitive for ya
12:38.00 ``Erik (when it works)
12:38.13 Yoshi47 so if i have 4 bolts that i subtract from a block to make inner threads, i would facetize the 4 bolts and it would still work, but the 4 bolts that are going in the threaded hole i would have to facetize too so there is no overlaps?
12:39.06 ``Erik you'd have, say, a region made up of some complex geometry, thousands of primitives
12:39.13 ``Erik then you'd facetize, say, the region
12:39.21 ``Erik and get a single 'bot' primitive with roughly the same geometry
12:39.57 ``Erik it does not alter existing geometry, it creates new geometry, it's pretty safe :)
12:40.45 Yoshi47 oh so i would do it to my whole combination that contains the threads and bolts and bearings?
12:41.05 Yoshi47 i'll do a backup first
12:41.13 ``Erik whatever you want to become a new single primitive
12:41.21 Yoshi47 cool
12:41.24 Yoshi47 im going to try
12:41.54 ``Erik for the bearing, I'd probably facetize the inner runner, outer runner, each bearing, etc... so each bot is independent
12:42.26 ``Erik slaps an outboard motor on his car and sees if it stays floating all the way to work
12:43.36 Yoshi47 so facetize newpart old part, or should i use the options, i read them but don't know if i need to use them or not
12:49.55 Yoshi47 i think it froze? it was going through all the lines of parts but now its not moving and then menus in mged aren't doing anything either
13:02.06 brlcad http://news.prnewswire.com/DisplayReleaseContent.aspx?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/09-10-2009/0005091867&EDATE=
13:03.58 brlcad Yoshi47: facetizing one of those bolts is going to take a very long time
13:04.07 brlcad check your cpu, it's probably burning
13:04.19 Yoshi47 ok, then i'll let it go for the day or weekend!
13:04.21 brlcad by "long time", possibly several hours
13:04.41 Yoshi47 shes only using one cpu, that leaves the other for me to use for other stuff so i can still work
13:04.58 brlcad I think when I last ran it on his bolts, there were a handful of bolts in the model and it took 26 hours
13:05.19 brlcad yeah, it's only a single-cpu process .. part why it's slow
13:30.21 brlcad ``Erik: heh, you'll probably appreciate this if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqz5dbs5zmo&feature=channel_page
13:46.16 ``Erik ok, will farrel as neil diamond... that's... just... wrong...
13:48.54 ``Erik recognized sandberg, had to dig a bit to figure out why heh

14:09.05 ``Erik spam spam spam and egg salad
14:09.17 brlcad it wasn't really spam, just pointless
14:09.30 brlcad someone added a link to wikipedia
14:09.33 ``Erik most wiki updates seem to be spam or antispam lately
14:09.54 brlcad because nobody is editing the wiki, sure :)
14:10.07 ``Erik that alienware laptop is impressive, but I think would be a bad thing for 'selling' the software
14:10.21 ``Erik still recent wounds from 'awe'... :)
14:10.35 brlcad awe?
14:10.54 brlcad oooh
14:10.54 ``Erik :)
14:11.12 brlcad how so though?
14:11.20 brlcad it should be faster than the go cart
14:11.36 ``Erik yeah, but "speed" is secondary to "usability" at this point, I think...
14:11.36 brlcad at 15 lbs iirc?
14:12.10 brlcad true, but in terms of a portable demo .. if that's to start
14:12.17 brlcad or you're saying it's not time to start yet
14:12.37 brlcad remember how long it might take to get said lappy :) ..
14:12.42 ``Erik I think there's a feeling that you need special hardware and an expert to use the software, one of the things I've busted ass to do is make it so it "just works", more along the apple thinking than the linux thinking, y'know?
14:13.40 brlcad the laptop should actually hope dispell the special hardware need
14:13.54 brlcad i mean i thought a new mbp would work fine too and it's time anyways
14:14.41 ``Erik yeah *shrug* that laptop "looks different", though, *shrug* mebbe I'm being oversensitive to the perception thing :)
14:15.22 ``Erik is there an extra copy of msvc or something floating around? I want a winderz build and I can't coerce tcl to build sanely with --no-cygwin
14:15.46 brlcad if nobody calls attention to it, it'll just be a black box
14:16.06 brlcad hm, there is
14:17.01 ``Erik drawing attention to "and look, you probably have one of these on your desk!" might be enough to snap any lingering misperceptions
14:17.46 brlcad or better yet, "hey and the mac sitting on your desk is more than twice as fast"
14:18.40 brlcad mm.. /dev/cocoa libdm interface :)
14:19.04 ``Erik *shrug* I have other things to worry about before a big demo
14:19.06 brlcad you'd think I would have thought about that earlier given I have the code we'd need sitting in bz
14:19.09 ``Erik mostly how to shame the team upstairs :>
14:19.33 brlcad i think the idea was for starseeker to make some rounds
14:19.53 brlcad as part of a follow-up "here's a set of cool things", adrt being one of them

14:22.33 brlcad nah, day off working from home .. so I can actually get this release out and some announcements sent
14:22.41 ``Erik aight
14:22.46 ``Erik meditates on plugin architectures
14:25.41 ``Erik hehehe, "another shotline selection tool" :D
14:25.56 ``Erik (or "apple shotline selection tool"? my cocoa experiment :D)
14:28.06 brlcad the "ASS Tool" does have a certain ring to it
14:31.09 Yoshi47 brlcad, release?
14:31.19 brlcad Yoshi47: yes?
14:31.28 Yoshi47 1.4.?
14:31.35 Yoshi47 7.14.?
14:31.36 Yoshi47 i mean

14:32.26 Yoshi47 what is the status on rotate and sweep?
14:32.32 brlcad unchanged
14:32.40 Yoshi47 usable?

14:33.09 Yoshi47 ok
14:33.11 Yoshi47 thanks

14:55.52 brlcad yeah, they open sourced it
14:56.57 ``Erik distchecks to see what he broke
14:57.11 brlcad removing subproject authors and readme?
14:57.26 ``Erik among other things
14:57.55 brlcad the other things aren't interesting :)
14:57.58 ``Erik working towards more integration, less 'subproject'ness
14:59.51 brlcad hm, okay
14:59.55 ``Erik was thinking about merging the ChangeLog into the toplevel one, but *shrug*
15:00.00 brlcad those two aren't necessarily orthogonal, though :)
15:00.35 brlcad e.g., thinking of making several of the libs more proper sub-projecty
15:00.45 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * r35883 10/brlcad/trunk/src/adrt/ (bench/ scripts/): remove obsolete shtuff (the repo remembers.)
15:01.24 brlcad libbu as a stand-alone project, libpkg, benchmark, etc
15:02.56 ``Erik Xorg style?
15:03.04 brlcad yeah, sort of
15:03.19 ``Erik hm
15:03.24 brlcad still unified, but a way to make them be stand-alone distributable
15:03.27 ``Erik "libbu? why not just use glib2?"
15:03.34 *** join/#brlcad KingofCSU (n=king@222.247.155.229)
15:03.47 brlcad because libbu is better, of course
15:03.54 brlcad (and it's closer to APR)
15:04.02 ``Erik *shrug* note the double quotes there ;)
15:05.20 brlcad making them work well alone will help manage our growth complexity
15:06.03 brlcad with a formalized concept of a subproject, new devs can get involved with a portion that is "well defined"
15:06.19 brlcad without needing to know the complexities and code creep
15:06.36 ``Erik amusingly, I argued long and hard on that for the upstairs project, but I'm not entirely sold on the approach for BRL-CAD :D
15:06.47 brlcad e.g., liboptical would make for a horrible subproject right now as it's horribly intermixed with librt
15:07.26 ``Erik yeah, ... the "DEPENDS" tag can be used to figure out the dependancy graph (if all targets were apropriately set)
15:07.48 ``Erik (adding that was as much for me to understand how things link together as the actual rule...)
15:07.50 brlcad I also think we'll get more exposure for folks just looking for a simple library that does something well, for whatever their application is
15:08.45 ``Erik heh, it'd really screw with the brains of the people who think BRL-CAD and their projects *MUST* be released at the same time :>
15:08.53 brlcad plus making a few of the core pieces stand-alone with reinforce keeping the API lines clean .. making sure DEPENDS stays clean
15:09.35 brlcad libbu, libbn, and libpkg are really easy ones to clean up (pkg is practically done)
15:10.35 brlcad it's not to say separate tarballs would be required, there's still be the brlcad.tar.gz source bundle
15:11.05 brlcad but perhaps binary distros for sub-projects that are stand-alone
15:11.26 ``Erik hm
15:12.00 brlcad where ./configure --enable-only-benchmark ends up with a binary dist tarball of just that stuff
15:12.50 brlcad along with sections for those projects on the website
15:13.06 brlcad brlcad.org/project or similar
16:46.08 Yoshi47 brlcad, i know your busy with the release but did you ever run the impeller render?
17:08.26 brlcad Yoshi47: I did, but I don't have it on hand at the moment
17:08.41 Yoshi47 oh ok
17:08.51 brlcad you're in the queue for a mailing announcment though :)
17:08.52 Yoshi47 both chrome and glass? or just one?

17:09.27 Yoshi47 the first one yes, but i redid the impeller from scratch for the tutorial
17:09.38 Yoshi47 didi you do my new impeller or the old one
17:10.02 brlcad erm, the only one I had so it should have been the new one
17:10.04 Yoshi47 looks like the old one, the new one has a keyway

20:06.17 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r35890 10/brlcad/trunk/TODO:
20:06.17 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: need something like a 'select' command for libged so that there can be stateful
20:06.17 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: namable temporary selections/groupings of objects. this allows a command-line
20:06.17 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: mechanism for common gui selection operations (band select, clicked selections,
20:06.17 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: volumetric selections).
20:10.30 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r35891 10/brlcad/trunk/TODO: oh yeah, can replace sphgroup with select.

20:16.47 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r35892 10/brlcad/trunk/NEWS:
20:16.47 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: this is cool. bob implemented support for sub-object erasures where you can
20:16.47 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: d/erase an object within a currently displayed object. it will expand the
20:16.47 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: display list to the list of sub-objects still currently displayed (e.g. e all.g;
20:16.47 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: d all.g/platform.r; who; and it'll report all.g/cone.r all.g/light.r, etc).
20:29.24 ``Erik http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/09/10/yeah-ok-so-facebook-punkd-us/ nice
20:31.42 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r35893 10/brlcad/trunk/NEWS: bob added bot_flip and bot_sync commands to archer (which should be nearly all or all of them now).
20:36.12 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r35894 10/brlcad/trunk/NEWS:
20:36.12 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: stephen 'el magnifico' kennedy wrote a procedural human geometry generator
20:36.12 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: (called 'human') that was added to mged and archer. in addition to a
20:36.12 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: command-line command, there's an initial (possibly non-functioning) archer
20:36.12 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: plugin gui too.
20:37.53 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r35895 10/brlcad/trunk/NEWS:
20:37.53 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: reword as it wasn't added to mged... stephen 'el magnifico' kennedy wrote a
20:37.53 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: procedural human geometry generator (called 'human') that was added to archer.
20:37.53 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: in addition to a command-line command, there's an initial (possibly
20:37.53 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: non-functioning) archer plugin gui too. implemented with bob's help of course.
