< Rhamphoryncus>
phi and theta would be a simpler approach for me
00:04
< gnolam>
That's just two glRotatefs.
00:05
< Rhamphoryncus>
I don't understand glRotate but I already have my own set of rotation functions
00:07
<~Vornicus>
what's it take, an axis and an angle?
00:07
< Rhamphoryncus>
angle and the axis is in the name
00:07
< Rhamphoryncus>
RotationX, RotationY, RotationZ
00:08
<~Vornicus>
oh. that'd be rotation around the chosen axis
00:08
<~Vornicus>
you want phi and theta, use iirc X and then Y
00:08
< Rhamphoryncus>
yeah
00:26
< Rhamphoryncus>
hrm. Starting out at 0,0,1 I can use z with sin or cos (haven't figured that out yet), but I do have to steal the sign from the y
00:27
< Rhamphoryncus>
I'm using +z as the north pole btw

<@Alek>
what IS your name, Vorn? if it's not a secret?
00:48
<~Vornicus>
Not hard to find: Uznanski
00:49
<@Alek>
cool.
00:49
<@Alek>
and the first name?
00:50
<~Vornicus>
See here's the thing
00:50
<~Vornicus>
There are three people on the entire planet who share my first and last name.
00:51 * Vornicus tries another tack in trying to build this graph, once again gets something silly.
00:52
<~Vornicus>
f''''''(x) = 0, f(1)=4, f(3)=9, f(5)=10, f(7)=4, f(9)=5, f''(7)=0. Gives me a weird quintic that actually has a root.
00:52
<~Vornicus>
One root.
00:52
<~Vornicus>
And gets really close to having another but not quite.
00:53
<~Vornicus>
This is not at all what the graph in the thingy looks like though
00:54
<@Alek>
yeah, there's like 3 or 4 with mine, too. in the world.
00:56
<@Alek>
1 is close to my age, in pretty much the same career line, AND at least 2 (including the 1st) are in the same general region I come from (it's a pretty large region, tbh).
00:56
<&McMartin>
There are, um
00:56
<&McMartin>
A lot.
00:56
<&McMartin>
With my name.
00:57
< gnolam>
In the world, there are quite a few. Middle names and all. The benefits of the side of the family my surname comes from having a strict naming scheme.
00:57
< gnolam>
In this country? Just me.
00:59
<@Alek>
heh. yeah, patronymics ahoy. pretty sure none of those who share my name share my middle name, but I just don't know.
01:00
< gnolam>
(Going back a century or two, the males follow an odd-even rule: if you're a Foo, your sons will be Bar and vice versa.)
01:01
< gnolam>
Alek: how does Russian handle foreign names in patronymics?
01:02
<@Alek>
what do you mean?

Like if your father is, say, "John". Would you become a Johnovich?
01:02
<@Alek>
Ivanovich. :P
01:02
< gnolam>
... ok, so that one has a direct equivalent. But you know what I mean.

01:03
<@Alek>
you'd be surprised how many names have equivalents. but yeah, I do.
01:03
<@Alek>
I dunno, doubt it's come up. >_>
01:03 franny [fran@Nightstar-e67f9d08.com] has joined #code
01:04
<@Alek>
probably russify the name and "ovich/ovna" it.
01:04
<@Alek>
I dunno.
01:04
<&McMartin>
Is that even needed? I mean, Ivanson doesn't sound that out of place in English even if it "should" be Johnson.

heh. in English. not in Russian.
01:06
<@Alek>
and probably in quite a few places it'd be Yonson. :P
01:08
< gnolam>
Not ????????
01:08
<@Alek>
:P
01:08
<@Alek>
I don't mean in Russia.
01:08
<@Alek>
more the Scandinavian countries that use -son
