Does anyone know of any low-poly 3D art tutorials? I've always been fascinated with low poly art styles. Throughout many years I tried to teach myself pixel art, but when low poly art was introduced to me during a time when I was looking for inspiration on a new project it was just fascinating. Here is an example of what I'd like to attempt:  Does anyone have any good resources or tutorials I can follow? The tools I have at my disposal include:  Access to University Photoshop through virtual desktop  Pixelmator I am looking for tutorials centered on 3D low-poly art that can be exported in order to view on the web as a 2D image. Here is another example from Google's Cubeslam game. I'm not quite sure what process their team approaches to make the art,
How to create a Geometric Polygonal Art portrait I've been interested in creating Geometric Polygonal art illustrations, i.e. making polygons and shapes with different color shading represent a face, or an object, see  set of .  How are they achieved? Is there some script for Illustrator which alters the image adding the shapes according to the colors or shades? How would I transform a normal image of Marilyn Monroe for example, to a polygonal illustration of her?
How can I tell what year my bike was made? Why does Venus spin in the opposite direction? Given: Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum.   Reverse spinning with dense atmosphere (92 times > Earth &amp; CO2 dominant sulphur based). Surface same degree of aging all over. Hypothetical large impact is not a sufficient answer.   Assuming any object large enough to alter a planets rotation or even orbit would likely destroy most of its shape, yet Venus has retained a spherical property with a seemingly flat, even terrain indicating no volcanoes,and few if any visible meteor impacts. It would be fragmented and dispersed for billions of years.  Even the question of what meteor, comet, asteroid composition could survive traveling that close to the sun's temperature, radiation, electromagnetic energy, solar flares, or gravity to equal a mass reactionary change as to alter it's spin. Is there a software in Ubuntu that can analyse the cross references (theorems, lemmas, equations, etc.) in a tex project? There are some software to analyse the cross references among codes (Java or C++). I used to use a software for code analysis under Windows many years before. But I can't remember the name. On linux, an example might be LXR Cross Referencer.   Is there a similar tool that can analyse the latex files to find out the cross references of theorems, lemmas, propositions and equations? Turning separate lines into a comma separated list with quoted entries I have the following data (a list of R packages parsed from a Rmarkdown file), that I want to turn into a list I can pass to R to install:  d3heatmap data.table ggplot2 htmltools htmlwidgets metricsgraphics networkD3 plotly reshape2 scales stringr   I want to turn the list into a list of the form:  'd3heatmap', 'data.table', 'ggplot2', 'htmltools', 'htmlwidgets', 'metricsgraphics', 'networkD3', 'plotly', 'reshape2', 'scales', 'stringr'   I currently have a bash pipeline that goes from the raw file to the list above:  grep 'library(' Presentation.Rmd \ | grep -v '#' \ | cut -f2 -d\( \ | tr -d ')'  \ | sort | uniq   I want to add a step on to turn the new lines into the comma separated list. I've tried adding tr '\n' '","', which fails. I've also tried a number of the following Stack Overflow answers, which also fail:      This produces library(stringr)))phics) as the result.      This produces ,% as the result.      This answer (with the -i flag removed), produces output identical to the input. Do magic item spells require concentration? Do magic items that cast a magic effect such as a ring of invisibility require the user to maintain concentration as if they had cast the spell?  Is this also the case if the item casting the spell is an artifact?   If the item is intelligent can it concentrate on the spell? I use (and have it much bigger) drive D: to store all my user data and games, but I have installed the Steam client on drive C:. When I was installing a first game (Warhammer 40000), I've chosen to place my library folder on drive D: and the game went there.  But now as I've got installed the second game (Portal), I can see that it was put on drive C: despite to the choice I've done previously. When I open Steam - Settings - Downloads + Cloud - Steam library folders, I can see both installation places in the list. Can I merge them into one?  I would even agree to use the default drive C: library (as I've replaced it with a symlink already). When I press to remove one library it says it can only remove empty ones. Calculating conditional entropy given two random variables I have been reading a bit about conditional entropy, joint entropy, etc but I found this: $H(X|Y,Z)$ which seems to imply the entropy associated to $X$ given $Y$ and $Z$ (although I'm not sure how to describe it). Is it the amount of uncertainty of $X$  given that I know $Y$ and $Z$? Anyway, I'd like to know how to calculate it. I thought this expression means the following:  $$H(X|Y,Z) = -\sum p(x,y,z)log_{2}p(x|y,z)$$  and assuming that $p(x|y,z)$ means $\displaystyle \frac{p(x,y,z)}{p(y)p(z)}$, then  \begin{align} p(x|y,z)&amp;=\displaystyle \frac{p(x,y,z)}{p(x,y)p(z)}\frac{p(x,y)}{p(y)}\\&amp;=\displaystyle \frac{p(x,y,z)}{p(x,y)p(z)}p(x|y) \\&amp;=\displaystyle \frac{p(x,y,z)}{p(x,y)p(x,z)}\frac{p(x,z)}{p(z)}p(x|y)\\&amp;=\displaystyle \frac{p(x,y,z)}{p(x,y)p(x,z)}p(x|z)p(x|y) \end{align} but that doesn't really help.  Basically I wanted to get a nice identity such as $H(X|Y)=H(X,Y)-H(Y)$ for the case of two random variables.  Any help?  Thanks cron job schedule How to make the window full screen with Javascript (stretching all over the screen) __NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]; object cannot be nil Clock displays incorrect time I've just installed 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04 and after I updated it, the clock stopped displaying the right time. It's now 8 hours behind my normal time. I've checked the Time and Date settings and the Location field is correct. What's even weirder is that the time displayed in Time and Date Settings adjusts itself after a few seconds and is correct. The time displayed in the task bar remains the same, however.  Any ideas?

However, in the first movie, The Matrix, Morpheus tells Neo that one of the things known for certain is that humans "burned the sky" in order to deny solar engery to the machines, which in turn led to the humans who survived the War being plugged into the Matrix to provide bioelectric energy to supply the machines.  If there's not enough sunlight for solar power, how can there be enough to grow plants to serve as food for animals?  Low levels I can understand -- house plants, at least, thrive in conditions too dim for solar panels to produce cost-effective power -- but every surface scene we see in the trilogy is as dark as a cloudy night; light coming only from the machines.  That wouldn't begin to support photosynthesis, which means all animal life would starve in, at most, a matter of a few years. Does every Abelian group admit a ring structure? Fell for fake sugar daddy. How do I get out? I fell on hard times and for the first time I attempted to get a sugar daddy. He asked for my bank account login info and reluctantly I gave it to him even though I knew I shouldn't have. Short story, I figured out he's fake and called him out on it after he made a couple of mobile deposits. Every time he made a mobile deposit he would go in there and take a third of the money he deposited. I also noticed he somehow used an old check I deposited and changed it and used it again. I got him to admit he wasn't who he claimed to be and I changed my login info. He claimed he could still see how much money was in my account and sent me a screenshot of how much money was in the account with the amount and &quot;Chase checking&quot; before it. That was the only information in the screenshot. He also threatened to get me in trouble with the law if I didn't send him more money. I changed my login info again just in case but I could really use some advice on what should I do next.
