Sketches of the past in the present

Nothing beats Popeye with double shades. In recent years, the convenience of digital art has probably overpowered the traditional forms, which I can’t arguably say is good or bad. After all, it’s the change in tools and not the process. From time to time, going back to just paper and pencil is bliss, the texture, the impressions, the overlapping shades, the fear of mistakes, and the eye for...

Location-based application using Django, PostGIS and Leaflet

One spatial point to an other β€” Popeye the Sailor. In a prior post, the experiment on hybrid spatial-index to find spatial data points is worth exploring, but the in-memory implementations and the lack of ability to scale make it almost pointless to use it in real-world applications. In a web application that requires storage and accessing spatial data (co-ordinates), a combination of Django...

Floating Point Round Off Errors in Geometric Algorithms

Eat Spinach and Build your Convex Hull β€” Popeye the Sailor. Floating Point Precision in Geometric Algorithms Most geometric algorithms are designed for exact real arithmetic; replacing them with floating-point arithmetic may cause those implementations to fail. Unfortunately, there are no go-to documents on what can go wrong and why across geometric algorithms. The rest of the post discusses...
