fenn | i just had the most awesome dream | 16:11 |
fenn | i was tricked into being locked away in my father's secret medical lab, but i had a startup venture funding meeting to go to! furious, i break out through one of the glass partitions (without actually breaking the glass) only to find that my shoes are not where i left them. so instead, i invent FLIP-DOWN SEGWAY POGO BOOTS from scratch | 16:14 |
fenn | at which point i realize it's such an awesome idea i have to wake up in order to write it down | 16:15 |

kanzure | oh i mis-read | 16:23 |
kanzure | a mechanical thingy capable of flipping down | 16:23 |
fenn | more like stilts than boots i guess | 16:23 |
QuantumG | yeah, that's the cleanest technique, it's also the most inflexible. binary operations on arbitrary b-reps is more flexible.. you can use any b-rep you find, no matter how "non-primitive". | 16:24 |
kanzure | can you link to a paper or algorithm for that | 16:24 |

JayDugger | Perhaps he'll later reconsider. | 21:11 |
kanzure | how? it will have even more revisions | 21:12 |
kanzure | what a silly excuse | 21:12 |
