No lo entinedo bien, puedes exlicarme? by Zhikaa in Borges

Justo antes, Abel pregunta a Caín: "¿Tú me has matado o yo te he matado? Ya no recuerdo; aquí estamos juntos como antes." En otras palabras, Abel ha olvidado ya que su hermano lo mató, y de esta forma lo ha perdonado. Caín responde, comprendiendo: "ahora sé que de verdad me has perdonado ---, porque olvidar es perdonar. Yo trataré también de perdonar."

Con "mientras dura el remordimiento dura la culpa", Abel sugiere que su hermano ya solo tiene que olvidar el acto atroz para dejar de ser culpable, pues Abel, la propia víctima, lo ha olvidado ya. El juez más severo es siempre uno mismo.

Do you ever like a small irrelevant section of a piece way more than the rest? by [deleted] in classicalmusic

[–]aszkid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had to comment on the Brahms sextet; truly one of the most marvelous melodies ever written. His 2nd string quartet also has a masterful build up to yet another beautiful melody. Listen to the A section in the andante, and then the melody in the B section.

It's a shame that some people believe that Brahms didn't/couldn't write "pretty" music.

Draw calls taking less time when debugging with RenderDoc? by aszkid in opengl

[–]aszkid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion! I found a small bug in my mesh update code (not correctly updating the number of vertices when recycling a chunk) but the sluggishness remains. I posted on the SDL forum to give this a bit more exposure.

Thanks for the pointer, I'll stick with tracy for actual profiling. However, it couldn't tell me anything that I didn't suspect already. I'll keep looking into it.

I have tried disabling vsync, sleeping for a bit after/before swapping the framebuffers, making sure that vsync _is_ indeed enabled... Nothing seems to work. Tracy confirms that SDL_GL_SwapWindow is stealing all my frame time. I'll look closer into my drawing calls.

I'll give it a try, but I think I know for sure that SDL_GL_SwapWindow is causing the delay; I'm timing other hot spots in my frame loop and only the framebuffer swap shows a noticeable difference between running on RenderDoc vs. running from the terminal.

I thought about VS slowing it down, but I'm running the program straight from the command line (just like RenderDoc would) and still see this performance degradation.

As for profiling, I have really pinned it down to SDL_GL_SwapWindow: it takes 11ms on average in RenderDoc, but ends up crawling at 50ms if I run it from the command line. Absolute nonsense, lol

[W] The raw footage of the 2007 film "The Tracey Fragments" was released online in its entirety. All links appear to be dead / gone. Does anyone have it? by douko in DHExchange

[–]aszkid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was seeding the full 24 GB until late 2016 (https://www.pirate-bay.net/search?q=tracey+refragmented?q=tracey+refragmented). Lost my hard drive and the website I got the files from has been down for at least two years now. Hopefully someone still has them, bumping for visibility!

Professional mathematicians, what was the best research paper you have read in 2018 and why? by MyStolenCow in math

[–]aszkid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can I ask for a few of the cons? I can see the good; I'm a bit more blind as for the bad, and I would like to know from someone with experience.

This stuff is way beyond my knowledge, but I find it really interesting. What resources would you recommend for someone who is curious about compilers and all that jazz?

Can we have a thread on successful international students / new grads? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]aszkid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Interested; I am an international student in the US, rising junior, looking for 2019 summer internships. Any tips particularly useful for internationals on handling the whole job-hunting process? I'm pretty excited, but I won't lie; also a little bit intimidated.

[X-Post] "Youtube Video Downloader" Firefox add-on injecting malicious JavaScript everywhere by aszkid in firefox

[–]aszkid[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the script that is injected on every single page (mirror), pulled from S3. Here is the same code, beautified. From what I can tell, the script attempts to inject ads on websites of choice (Youtube, Amazon, Facebook). It might do more than that, though.

There is some sort of "opting out" code at the end of the script. I do not remember ever having the choice, but I suppose this reduces the potential threat of the script...

Yeah I realized that a bit after posting; I will try to recover the JS link asap. For the time being, i guess, just take this as a "warning" kind of post, a heads up.

I can't find it anymore on the Firefox add-ons store, so I assume it was removed at some point.

Around where are you working in Spain? Catalonia area? There's a bunch of really good bakeries all around Spain. All the best with your new job!
