What's the proper way to handle a zero in the direction vector when calculating the reciprocal direction? Should it evaluate to infinity?

Thanks for bringing my attention to the revival of this game. TXR2 was my favorite Dreamcast game growing up, and it seems like early reviews suggest that this new game brings back the same feeling of the originals.

Yes, in TFA the author uses objects that are the same size. I imagine that is why OP brought up spatial hashing since they specifically mention this.

Yes, although you're more likely to see something like a k-d tree in offline rendering than in real-time rendering.

Holding L3 to sprint is not uncommon in my experience, I've actually never played a game where it's a toggle (but I don't play much).

For example, in Fortnite you have to hold L3 to sprint. This causes other issues as well. If you drive a car in the game for example, and use the analog stick to steer, accidentally clicking L3 will cause the car to turbo boost. If you're driving around a corner and have L3 moved all the way in one direction, accidentally clicking L3 is a given which causes an accidental turbo boost.

Thanks for sharing. Curious to see if Xbox and PS5 controllers use the same analog stick hardware.

The issue with L3 as Sprint is that a button is so much easier to press and hold than a joystick (as mentioned in the article). Even worse is when games use L3 as Sprint but also configure the analog stick to perform some other action, in which case you can perform actions you don't mean to perform.

This does not speak to the randomness of markets. Only the ever changing nature of them.

Possibly. Or this could be a Boeing type situation where the stock price continues to fall.

Post your calls position if you’re serious.

Yes that was a typo. I meant 185.

Regardless, all of this is just intellectual play considering the Reddit poster has no desire to exercise their options.

No, they are not ITM until CRWD hits $180/sh.

Not sure what material in their post is ill-informed. Looks like what happened today is exactly what that poster warned of in one of their bullet points.

Would like to see benchmarks for the applications in the test suite.

E.g., how does Cycles compare on AMD vs Nvidia?
