Long time, no SIMD

JK, the naivest stupidest binary tree blows fancy 4-way SIMDed BVH out of the water.

Actually, it may be slower by itself, but multicore apparently *destroys* wide instruction performance. At the same time cache^W completely oblivious scalar traversal is happy to run on all the capabilities available.

High ceremony 4-wide or primitive 10-/20-/whatever-wide? :blobthonkang:

@amiloradovsky Apparently the original form was

* Socrates is human.
* Everything human is an animal.
* Therefore, Socrates is an animal.

Therefore, this is a medieval trolling, later adopted by the logicians in a milder form, losing its punchline in the process.

@simonmic TL:DR: it is, but it doesn't matter anyway.
Don't use social media for private chats.

@calmeilles Why don't they do that now and require external incentives instead?

@calmeilles I expect the regulations without a means to expect some reasonable ROI would be sabotaged by very, very, very, VERY shitty pieces of toxic plastic duds.

@BartoszMilewski This is the central problem of governance in Russia. After so many years of systematic breeding for loyalty instead of competence, the morons are far and wide.
If you're an intelligent being and want to have a seat at the table you need to be guilty of something. With compromise being a price for admission, those non-morons who are in are basically evil and held in contempt by the people.
The hope has left the nation.

@BartoszMilewski Mutiny? In Russia? In 2024?
They're pretty damn well know that it couldn't.

The RT book subtitles refer to the scene rendering times 😅

* A few balls: renders in one weekend
* Textured rotating cubes with fog and stuff: takes the next week
* Real meshes and scenes like *that palace*: the rest of your life

@timbray Unfortunately it contains some significant manipulations making it.. idk, suspicious at best.

@gregeganSF @mpesce because the trajectories aren't milkomedogenic anymore?

@siderea > just get subscription service from PayPal

Famous last words..

There are 3 types of Visitor:

* Standard Visitor: that are very easy to contain or do not need many resources to contain. It does not mean that the visitor is harmless, just simple to contain.
* Marriage/Civil partnership: that require more resources to contain completely or where containment isn't always reliable. Usually this is because the relationship is insufficiently understood or is inherently unpredictable.
* DELETED.
* Transit visitor: that are very difficult to contain or haven't yet been contained. Generally, the resources used to contain those are often very limited, yet they need much of the resources to contain it. This doesn't mean the visitor is dangerous; just difficult to contain.
