I was at first shocked as well, but Parkinson is the name of the interviewer.

Oh! My bad. I didn't watch the video so...

The only thing I can think of when Mila Kunis says anything is "Shut up Meg." I try to not think it but I still do.

Some wisdom teeth removal requires them to break the tooth to take it out so it doesn't damage the teeth next to it. So........they knock you out cold so you aren't staring at the guy who has a crooked crowbar like device in your mouth and is whacking it with a hammer to break your tooth.

So whats with all the general anesthetics? Did you guys have some dental issue that required it or were you just chicken. I had my wisdom teeth out under local anesthesia. It did require the dentist to stick that damn needle in about 20 times, but anythings better than coming out of a general.

I think I was more like this guy. I was 16. I remember waking up, thinking I was fine to walk, then having the nurse and my mom catch me as I fell out of the chair when they told me to stay down. The next thing I remember I'm in the car telling my mom all sorts of secrets. Then I was on the couch watching a movie with a bowl under my chin to collect the blood and spit that drooled out.


We must have gone to the same doctor, sort of like the Steve Martin character in Little Shop of Horrors.

My brother and I went in on the same day to have ours taken out. I went first, and he chickened out and never had the operation. I was so out of it that ten years went by before I found out that he never had the operation that day. The look on my face still makes him laugh.

mxx, yea, all the movies were rendered to run 30 fps..and the game saved the frames it rendered (very slowly) to the hd to be put together again in a video editor. The game really gets glitchy with that many objects. Infact I don't think anyone has been able to aim the camera at the center of the explosions on meg cluster barrel bombs without the game crashing.

Ahh yes, my favorite past time, midi music. I picked up my first cd rom drive and with it, the must have cd game of all time, 7th guest. 7th guest was a SVGA game (That sucker was 8 bit color! 256 colors and some how they pulled off transluscent digital video footage over the back ground) that used Midi for all its music. I discovered the game had an easter egg, the 2nd disc had a red book cd audio track of most of the games soundtrack played on the SCC1 roland board. After hearing just how good these midi files could sound, I quickly got into the world of PC Midi. I upgraded my SBpro to an SB16 multi cd, this monster not only supported the proprietory connector for my cdrom drive, but also an MPU expansion connector for a midi daughter board. The first daughter board I got was creatives wave blaster, but it was pretty weak. I figured out if I wanted a really good midi sound, I would need to plunk down some seriouse cash, and it would probably need to be from roland. So I picked up the roland SCD-15 (I still have that thing! but nothing to plug it into now) and while not quite as good as the dedicated SCC1, it was enjoyable. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJlkz6V0VOQ to hear how it sounded)

I picked up the SBlive as soon as it came out and proceeded to knock several megs of instruments into that sucker as well. I even put together a sound font called musica theoria (its hilarious when I google that now). My thirst for playing with midi music now is dried up now, but I have a sizeable collection of chip music, sound tracks from my fav gameboy/genesis/snes/ps1 (the entire final fantasy 7-9 series is chip music) so I can hark back on old memories of how music evolved over the decades.

I LOLed when Miss Misinformation told him to shut up because "nobody knows what net neutrality means", but that's not your job is it Meg?

But I think the real reason she had to interupt him was cause no one had been interupted in twenty whole seconds. It's pretty undeard of with one of these so to be fair the guy should have made his point in that time

And the issue of "unlimited" detail = "unlimited" memory requirements isn't quite right, have a look at some of the 64K demos from the PC demo scene. The example of the billions of animals stacked in pyramids is the answer to that one, it might be a few meg for the first animal, the rest are just extra entries in an index pointing back to the first one.


I'm not sure which way you intend your example here...-Polygons- supply that "few extra entries in an index" property...using point clouds, not so much. Yes, you could presumably create exact duplicates of objects by recording a displacement for a cloud, but you get exactly the same ability with polygons, and the objects are vastly smaller in memory footprint. IOW, duplicating an object is -not- increasing the number of details. Details only have a cost in -any- approach if they're unique.

A point cloud first requires you to determine a maximum zoom, i.e. how close to the object are you going to be allowed to move the camera. Then you must specify enough individual points to provide a seamless view of the object. If you then move closer, your object falls apart into dissociated points. That's inherent in the very definition of a point cloud, after all. With polygons, you can interpolate between your vertices for any level of zoom...and the only flaw is an increasingly pixelated image.

Honestly, if points are so vastly superior, you can use polygons as points too...for a simple three-fold increase in memory. That would make it pretty trivial to prove his concept...but he isn't offering that proof. If memory serves (I'm not listening to the whole thing again), he's looking for investors. Proof is not an unreasonable requirement in this case. If he's being honest, a demo at one of the big conferences (as opposed to an unbelievable video clip on youtube) would net him all the funds he could need.

I still believe it smells exactly like the Phantom.

It sounds pretty reasonable to me. Google does actually use some fairly advanced algorithms, not so much brute force computing power. The huge server farms are there because they have a huge user base.

Forget the fact that the family structure is all similar, how about shows that contain about 30% plot and about 70% cut scenes that start with "Like the time I...
...did my taxes."
...set my armpit hair on fire."
...drank blood to become a vampire."

Then cut to the "joke." Oh and they hate Meg.
