[QUOTE=Mega1mpact;39413632]Okay next question:
"If I'm programming a really old computer using punchcards and I tear that punchcard in two. Then the software won't run as expected obviously. Is this a hardware or a software problem?"

It sounded so clever in my head :/[/QUOTE]
Haha I love this one, can't solve this one since its both what drives the computer and still its physical.

[QUOTE=Darkwater124;39413655]Then it's an input problem.[/QUOTE]
But in this case the input is the "software" haha.
It's really a definition issue, the border between hardware and software can be really fluctuating in some cases.

Thats sneaky, I never thought as using the logical or operator to perform an action like that.
I've only really seen that kind of logical or usage in shell script

It's an ebuild, which is a flavour of Bash script.
I just had to write some javascript web code without using JQuery. Felt a little like going back too the dark ages :(

[QUOTE=quincy18;39413614]It doesn't say it specifically cannot be fixed by programming and it does specify its a software bug, it just posts one of the possible solutions to fixing it. So yes its a software bug.[/QUOTE]
Although you could argue that you could fix it by coding more, what if this is a very serious error, like a basic math operation giving you 0/0 when it shouldn't, for example. Would you really continue coding on a platform like that, knowing that it can almost certainly bite you in the ass if you also have to do some other math operations that could potentially hide this serious defect beneath that when run could again give you 0/0, an indeterminate form?
Although this second scenario could be also fixed with software, what about other ones that no one is expecting and are affected by this same error in ways no one can easily imagine? But there's also another question, is it the problem of the coder for not being able to come up with a solution that fixes these scenarios even if it is extremely difficult?
Cool site!

That code also demonstrates how to register a new instruction with my stack machine.

Just rendering the control points for the bezier patches but I'm really not sure where to go from here. I know I need to tessellate them but that's scary D: I'm tempted to just not support bezier patches since there is little use to having them today and a model would be better suited...
I think we need new thread related only to Instacode :P

Well, this makes the wordpress code I work with every day slightly less depressing.

Thought so, but I couldn't be sure due to the messed up geometry.
Do you plan on adding items to the renderer at some point?

Don't ask me, some Indian guy wrote it. You see the stray }s? Those are because he liked to write his if statements all on one 2000 character long line.

I plan on supporting as much of it as is sensible, this is really my second attempt. The geometry is only messed up due to only drawing the control points, the tessellation is a bit of a pain with my method. I have one vertex buffer and one index buffer for the whole map, and so to tessellate I have to add more vertices and so on. Another thing I may look at changing is the lighting since the entities for the lights appear to be present I may move to per-pixel.
D/w I did actually fix that particular monstrosity

Then we ended up using something else instead but I guess it's the thought that counts.
