That absolutely is something that Ray Tracing could simplify/enable, yes!
It’s not that ray tracing is a gimmick, it’s more that modern cards still aren’t powerful enough to fully trace every ray, so some cheating is still done with baked lighting I believe. Plus a lot of devs might not have gotten accustomed to using it properly yet.

Is he doing a great job? I thought he was just portraying himself.
Nah for real, if he’s not a psychopath in real life, he must be a tremendous actor.

It’s not uniquely American. Estonian men are the same. Despite the free healthcare. The saying goes (and I’ll try to translate the Russian swears to English words to keep the meaning intact, but they’ll lose their colorfulness): The Estonian man never visits the doctor because he only knows two diseases: “whatever” and “quite fucked”. Whatever passes on its own and there’s no cure for quite fucked, anyway,

Lol I was just saying why a journalist would want to avoid calling a pedo a pedo. It’s so easy to get a libel lawsuit on your ass.

To be clear, do you stay in the sauna the entire time? Because around these parts it’s common to get in, splash some water every now and then (“leil” in Estonian or “löyly” in Finnish) and then get out after like 5 min to take an ice bath. At 100+ you probably skip the water.
I bet if you stay like 15+ minutes at once it’s way worse for you because your internals have more time to heat up.

Huh why do they have 105C saunas in spas then?

Has it been proven in court already? I mean we all know it, but calling her what she is before she’s convicted could result in a defamation lawsuit.

- Comment on Bill and Melinda French Gates and Warren Buffett’s Giving Pledge after 15 years: Only 9 of the 256 billionaires actually followed through on giving away half their wealth 1 week ago:
Well still 255 for maximum count if you’re using an 8-bit number to COUNT billionaires like your initial comment said - but if you’re using an 8-bit number to index your collection of billionaires, then yes, you could get up to 256.
For counting we should always at least have the possibility of a 0 value, hence we count actual billionaires from 1-255. With indexing, 0 is already the first billionaire, so we get billionaires from 0-255, or a total of 256

politicians in the US derive their power from their ability to raise money from rich donors, while rich donors derive their power directly from their money
Technically they derive their power from the electoral mandate, but to achieve it requires a lot of money from said rich donors. The second half is true. The rich are just rich, nobody voted them in, that’s why they’re more powerful than the politicians.

- Comment on Periodic reminder to get your library cards and fill out museum surveys. 2 weeks ago:
Interestingly enough, not really happening in my country. You’re sorta expected to get the mandatory reading books from a library in school… And later on in university, it’s a place to hang out and study together.
Maybe adults outside of academia don’t use them much (I don’t), but I think people generally see the value in them.

Ah okay, places I’ve worked have tried to keep tasks as small as possible so you don’t work on your feature branch more than a day. If it takes over a day, should’ve been an epic (and therefore multiple feature branches). Seen different approaches to the whole release thing too. Weekly deployments, 3x per year, or in my current company: deploy as soon as someone has tested it
