00:03.47 starseeker ``Erik: simd in sbcl?
00:03.57 ``Erik ja
00:04.04 ``Erik http://common-lisp.net/project/sb-simd/
00:04.48 starseeker ooo
00:05.13 starseeker quick - fast nurbs raytracing in sbcl with simd! :-P
00:05.33 ``Erik hop to it!
00:05.48 starseeker step one - re-implement openNURBS in lisp
00:05.54 ``Erik heh
00:05.56 starseeker step two - die of old age :-(
00:06.14 ``Erik isn't sure opennurbs would be worth trying to reimplement
00:06.21 starseeker could live to 500 and still not write all the software he wants to...
00:07.16 Maloeran I don't think you would need opennurbs for that... fortuantely
00:07.19 Maloeran fortunately, too
00:08.08 starseeker Maloeran: you need some fairly hairy nurbs data structures and solving routines
00:08.39 starseeker we would need at least some of those in Lisp to do it right, although perhaps not all of it for a minimalistic nurbs raytracer only
00:09.01 Maloeran But does OpenNURBS contain optimized stuff for raytracing? All that stuff probably doesn't reside in the library...
00:09.33 louipc starseeker: do you want to write it, or do you just want someone to write it? hehe
00:09.42 louipc or.. it to be written
00:10.01 starseeker louipc: Nah, more of a joke - that's been the main interest I've had in SIMD lately
00:10.08 ``Erik wonders how opennurbs compares to twingy's old nurbana stuff, didja look at the blender source?
00:10.31 starseeker lisp is where I want to build the foundations for a category theory based mathematical solving system
00:10.34 louipc starseeker: hehe I understand
00:12.03 starseeker ``Erik: last I heard, they still didn't have nurbana working fully
00:12.10 starseeker did something change?
00:12.41 ``Erik I d'no, I thought it was complete
00:15.31 ``Erik huh, looks like they're still working on integrating it? (no date on this fundraising page thingy)
00:15.42 starseeker yeah, I think they kinda stalled...
00:16.50 starseeker haven't see anything new this year
00:16.58 starseeker haven't been watching commits though
00:17.31 starseeker ah: http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2009-May/023435.html
00:18.32 starseeker 'course, they'll be way ahead of us on editing
00:21.40 starseeker helps to have the modern gui already in place :-P

19:44.16 ``Erik nice, how to prove who is your best friend: put your dog and your spouse in the trunk of a car for an hour. Open the trunk. See which one is happy to see you.
19:45.03 brlcad haha
19:45.29 brlcad that's awesome, sounds like a line right out of family guy

20:37.48 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r36180 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libdm/dm-ogl.c:
20:37.48 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: OK, this should have occurred to me earlier. Since we CAN successfully
20:37.48 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: MakeCurrent AFTER the window is mapped, simply move the Tk_MapWindow command
20:37.48 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: BEFORE the MakeCurrent and re-enable all the goodies. Still not entirely clear
20:37.49 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: WHY this is important, but attach ogl now succeeds.
20:37.53 starseeker kicks self up and down the hallway for stupidity
20:38.41 starseeker even stranger, /dev/ogl raytracing is suddenly behaving perfectly
20:38.50 starseeker maybe that's just a local thing
20:39.28 starseeker can anyone else confirm?
20:49.30 starseeker still wants to try dm-togl as a warmup/exercise, but knows he can't toss togl in just for the heck of it. Hmm - maybe a branch?
20:50.58 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r36181 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libdm/dm-rtgl.c: Do the same thing for rtgl - move TK_MapWindow
20:51.19 *** join/#brlcad Ralith (n=ralith@d142-058-080-137.wireless.sfu.ca)
21:02.20 starseeker ok, /dev/ogl raytrace is still slow on Linux for me
21:23.59 CIA-33 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r36182 10/brlcad/trunk/NEWS: update NEWS - fix 'attach ogl' on OSX
21:24.26 starseeker :q
21:24.30 starseeker whoops
21:35.57 *** join/#brlcad Ralith (n=ralith@69.90.49.189)
23:07.31 Maloeran Ah, nice blog Erik... :)
23:09.14 Maloeran Woah, golf has been included in the Olympics. Perhaps they'll include acrobastic skydiving and sailing around the world next
23:28.30 ``Erik they should merge with braufest.
