  Drawing triangles in a Z buffer
 
Hey all, In trying to implement a LDraw renderer I've been scouring the web looking for raster-painting algorithms. While I've found plenty of line-drawing algorithms (the Bresenham seems to be pretty nice) I haven't found squat for drawing a filled (...)

  Re: Question of the week ...
 
As it happens it seems that the question was "can you generate unique sequential numbers that have a check digit that fit the "mod 10" verification algorithm used for credit cards?"

  Question of the week ...
 
As a techie I get some great questions each week from staff here and from ex-colleagues, but today's question from a marketing manager was such a blinder that I'd thought I'd post it here for your enjoyment. Please don't send me answers, I don't (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  WAY off topic
 
I ran across this geekspace diagram (URL) (from Penny Arcade) and in sending it to a friend, said "the fact that LEGO isn't on there means LEGO is not geeky" followed by a smiley.
