donating 100% vs giving your smart kid 70% and your dumb kid 30% is much different. you’ll understand if you’re the 30%.

this. even if it’s a dollar.
that one kid will be wondering why the $1 for the rest of their lives but have no way of finding out why. that stuff can start as nothing but fester quickly. I’ve had this happen to my family.

eh I’m the same as you. even grew up in China for many years and the original comment could be true. who knows, but its getting weird coverage in both countries.
it’s also quite the stereotype (one especially held by western raised Asians) to believe all East Asians have asian elitism. most people I knew in China were insanely jealous of Americans and would give their life savings to send their kids to the US for education and a better life. the rich had the everyone is stupid mentality, but that’s true for rich people everywhere. one thing that is true and why I made the comment in parenthesis is that most Chinese people think Western raised Asian children are raised incorrectly and make that known to their family members in the West which comes off very elitist.
no comment on the dudes other comments he’s made since I don’t know much about him, but to apply this to all East Asians especially the Chinese because of his one comment is pretty… yeah.

kinda… graphics all end up as polygons eventually but 3d tile rendering has a lot of different considerations and limitations you don’t have with rendering a normal 3d asset rendering. check out things like CesiumJS that is an equivalent kind of technology

it’s not the same. 3d games use polygons and shaders and whatnot. you can optimize things much easier in that space since it’s a lot more computational. 3d tiling is literally a bunch of png files being streamed down.

3d terrain tile streaming takes a crazy amount of data. it essentially downloads hundreds of png files at a time and overlays them over 3d terrain data. Everytime you move an inch or pan the camera, it pulls down new data.
- Comment on Is martial arts really that useful? 2 months ago:
op mentioned the context is situations where firearms are used. so pretty sure they meant useful as a self defense method and not useful as a way of exercise

- Comment on How should news sites be funded? 6 months ago:
we should have the journalists harvest every single tuna in the ocean and sell it at a high cost to consumers. the money generated from this will go directly to the news industry. this way, we can enjoy delicious tuna while we read the news without any concern about tunas in the ocean anymore. the only catch (no pun intended) is the news related might be a little biased and some people might not like tuna. both don’t sound like a huge concern when you get high quality journalism.

when I’m feeling lonely, I heat up a big block of mozzarella in the microwave until it’s melted. I wait maybe 15 minutes until it cools to a body temperature and then I stick my big ol throbbing hand in there. it’s very soothing.
