More specifically when the user clicks on a specific point on the planet and moves the mouse cursor you want that point to still be under the cursor when the mouse button is released. You can extend this construct outside the central sphere into a camera control that works across the screen and feels very intuitive at any zoom level.

Google "sgi trackball" for some interesting code to point the way.

YMMV. My first memories start as a trickle before the first year growing to a torrent starting from 12 months and forward. My sister hardly remembers anything before the age of 10. :-)

I'm actually interested in a bit more detail as well.

I've seen a few different fabrics in production (including proprietary non-public ones) and while I'm not sure IB is the answer Ethernet certainly has quite a few performance limitations.

Does Ken count as a Systems C programmer?

Most of the systems C programmers I know, who admittedly work on large distributed systems, like Go.

Can you elaborate on this? Having split a lot of wood it's not clear this design is affected by handedness.

> And the most advanced algorithm family for indexing point-like data is not in the literature at all.

Don't leave us comp geom geeks hanging.. Which one are you referring to? :-)

It works fine. When I did the initial implementation of the Go ARM compiler I mostly used my phone as a debug environment. Android was probably the only Linux distro where the compiler worked when 1.0 was released.

This is subtle but extremely interesting.

Input for computer graphics is very very hard. I've seen some great design work up close (Tinkercad) and this is one of the most interesting concepts in a while.

Having been raised in a cold and isolated country (Finland) I think you incorrectly assume that means a lot of time spent indoors. This can be true, but does not have to.

I do think you are on to something with the idea of pods, most farmhouses where I come from are arranged in a number of small separate buildings.

I would actually like to know if we could hire him.. :-)

Why wouldn't split stacks work on SPARC, is there something about the architecture that makes it impossible?

That is almost doable, but would be exceptional unless your name is Rob, Robert or Ken. I think I could almost claim 9 years at that point, conveniently ignoring the fact I stopped coding a few years back.. :-)

I'll counter your anecdotal evidence with my anecdotal evidence. I know a few systems guys who have three or more decades of experience with statically typed languages who prefer Go. :-)

Many of the tools are actually reused again and again. However, between uses they are sterilized using an autoclave and then immediately put into sealed bags to maintain sterility.
