I just came across the following comment in some code I need to modify that was written in 2008:
Sigh  .

I am rendering everything correctly so far in my tests, except gradients which I'm still implementing, and I hate the math. Oh, I hate the math.
But I've gotten to the point where I'm over the hump. SVGs I expect will render are rendering. Now it's just a matter of fleshing the rest out, with the gradients being probably the most difficult bit.
In part because gradient definitions are often (always?) declared across multiple tags, with xlink:href linking them in XML.
In part because you can limit the gradient positioning to the local bounding box of the shape, and specify widths, heights, radiuses, and offsets in things like percentages or even mm. It's basically like CSS.
In large part, because I have two reference implementations, but neither is going to quite work for the way I'm doing this, because I'm rendering strictly top-down, not keeping the XML nor the shapes I parse in memory. I render and I toss.
Anyway, it's a little bit overwhelming at the moment, but I still feel pretty good about the progress I've made.

That's the first test I can remember failing since I was 10 or so.
According to the graph I have trouble hearing the frequencies that human voices mostly use. Clearly, I've been listening to the wrong people for years ...

I've had the same problem + ringing in ears for 55 years.
My SO is just in the frequency range where I have a very hard time understanding her.

Same here, I've been wearing hearing aids for a couple of years now. At my latest test the graph even showed which letters of the alphabet were the problem.

So did mine, but it was all of them ...

Study harder.
I once studied an entire weekend for a urine test.

I wouldn't consider that a failure.

Reported for trolling. Take your white supremacist nonsense to twitter where it will be better received.

I don't get what's so hard to understand: There is no meaningful difference between "pretending" to be stupid in order to get attention and actually being stupid.

What I did wrong?

I'm pretty sure she was referring to the troll not you

I hope so

Not you. I was talking about the original commenter. Sorry for the confusion.

What happened to Derek T P - he was on my shortlist as a CCC setter

He's still logging in regularly according to his profile: @derektp123
Perhaps he hasn't checked the lounge recently?

When I view his profile it shows zero messages etc. Do you see some numbers?
|
|
|
|

Very strange... I can confirm, I also to see all on 0 and also his profile picture is gone

That was what we in the trade call a cockup

Well, I also fell for it and didn't check it seriously

My mistake - I found his profile but used the Autofill at-code option without enough care ... fixed now.
