I have been struggling with a modification of: Guy: “If I gave you a million dollars, would you sleep with me?” Girl: “A million dollars is a lot of money, and you don’t look that bad, so I guess I would consider it” Guy: “Ok, since I don’t have a million dollars, would you sleep with me for $100?” Girl: (outraged) “What kind of girl do you think I am?” Guy: “We’ve already...
It seems like most recent performance gains come from runtime/dynamic optimizations, not static/compile time optimizations.
if they wanted noisy sleep, it should be something like
sleep(func(rand()))
if so, it might be vs timing attacks
However, if it's actually useful, why wasn't it invented layer as part of OpenGL / taught in standard graphics courses?
Given that OpenGL already has the 3D model, and has to redraw everything 30 or 60fps anyway, there's no performance hit to slightly change the camera angle.
What are the limitations / side effects of this technique that cause it to not be used in practice?

Friends of friends have recently tried to sell me USANA products. Analyzing it, the math looks a bit suspicious to me; but I couldn't find much on Google about this company. Do others have experience with it? Is it legit or a legal pyramid-scheme-variant?Thanks!
I want to register a C corporation. However, I don't want it to link directly back to me (this is not for tax dodging; I will happily pay my taxes). I just want my involvement with the startup to remain anonymous until I succeed [no need to broadcast my failures to the world.]Is there anyway to setup this up?
