| 03:42.20 | pra5ad-sj | got contacts |
| 03:42.58 | pra5ad-sj | talked to a guy from intel research |
| 03:43.13 | jbabcock | hi folks, are there any recommended tutorials/docs for a neophyte other than what's available at http://www.brlcad.org/? |
| 03:43.19 | pra5ad-sj | wants to know my 'requirements' for realtime raytracing h/w |
| 03:52.27 | brlcad | jbabcock: those are the usual starting points |
| 03:52.39 | brlcad | there's also help inside of mged on the help menu, albeit slightly dated |
| 03:52.49 | jbabcock | ok, thanks. Already looking over them. |

| 03:58.04 | brlcad | pra5ad: until the expo starts? that's odd .. |
| 03:58.35 | pra5ad-sj | yea |
| 03:58.41 | pra5ad-sj | im sorta dissapointed |
| 03:58.54 | pra5ad-sj | it doesnt look to be well organized |
| 03:58.59 | pra5ad-sj | at least not as well as J1 |
| 03:59.07 | brlcad | heh |
| 03:59.21 | brlcad | it also costs less than a third iirc |
| 03:59.22 | pra5ad-sj | im not knocking the subject matter =) |
| 03:59.46 | pra5ad-sj | j1? twice as much |
| 03:59.53 | brlcad | only twice? :) |
| 03:59.58 | pra5ad-sj | heh |
| 04:00.14 | pra5ad-sj | i can compare siggraph in august |
| 04:00.24 | brlcad | siggraph is usually massively well organized |
| 04:00.35 | pra5ad-sj | we'll see how 1/3price affects it |
| 04:00.49 | pra5ad-sj | heh m$ are such bastards |
| 04:00.56 | pra5ad-sj | right in the middle of the convention center |
| 04:00.59 | pra5ad-sj | a wet bar |

| 04:02.46 | brlcad | what happens in san jose stays in san jose |
| 04:03.08 | pra5ad-sj | this place is desolate |
| 04:03.22 | pra5ad-sj | every restaurant here is empty |
| 04:03.37 | brlcad | how big has the conference gotten? |
| 04:03.42 | brlcad | couple thousand? |
| 04:03.51 | brlcad | guess the expo opening will be th most telling |
| 04:03.52 | pra5ad-sj | yea sounds about right |
| 04:04.02 | pra5ad-sj | not many mon/tues |
| 04:04.07 | pra5ad-sj | lots for the expo |

| 04:04.47 | pra5ad-sj | =) |
| 04:04.49 | brlcad | can't imagine it's as big as siggraph yet |
| 04:04.54 | pra5ad-sj | oh hell no |
| 04:04.59 | pra5ad-sj | j1 was bigger |
| 04:05.28 | brlcad | you hear/remember the official stat on how many attended j1 last year? |
| 04:05.42 | pra5ad-sj | dont remember |
| 04:05.47 | pra5ad-sj | i think 2-3k? |
| 04:06.14 | pra5ad-sj | i remember someone saying it was way smaller than siggraph |
| 04:06.16 | pra5ad-sj | so *shrug* |
| 04:06.30 | pra5ad-sj | SJ is one clean city tho |
| 04:06.37 | pra5ad-sj | the light rail is awesome |
| 04:07.24 | brlcad | mm, sun says j1 was about 15k last year.. |
| 04:07.42 | pra5ad-sj | hmm interesting |
| 04:07.47 | pra5ad-sj | sum of 5 days? heh |
| 04:07.55 | pra5ad-sj | i certainly didnt see 15k ppl |
| 04:08.00 | brlcad | undoubtedly includes everyone that just passes through the expo floor |
| 04:08.37 | pra5ad-sj | man most of the coders from the big houses |
| 04:08.42 | pra5ad-sj | like bioware and bethesda |
| 04:08.50 | pra5ad-sj | havent seen a treadmill in ages |
| 04:09.06 | pra5ad-sj | heehee |
| 04:09.21 | brlcad | not too unbelievable, siggraph 2005 was about 30k |
| 04:09.35 | brlcad | i can imagine.. |
| 04:09.46 | pra5ad-sj | lots of koreans and japanese here |
| 04:10.08 | pra5ad-sj | i cant seem to find the square-enix ppl |
| 04:13.35 | pra5ad-sj | dont really care much for the gpgpu stuff |
| 04:14.16 | pra5ad-sj | went to the 'embodied agents in games' tutorial |
