lame!

If it doesn't include syscalls and various memory-management constructs, it's not a "real" program

Pfft. A true programmer would know that syscalls can be shortcutted using simple and more efficient magluts, and memory-management constructs have become almost obsolete in recent months.

Do you win Balderdash often?

Do not always relate nerdness to sexieness, it really gets frustrating, when you sit for hours on quantum probability like <x-1>a<1-x> = P = aΦ and you finally managend to combine that with the relativistic impulse, what is E - p²c²=m²c² and you run with those great glowing eyes to your wife and explain it in detail, when she says: "ouh dear, you are so sexy when you explain things."

That IS really frustrating

IMO, It's sexy when you get to observe them talking to each other about it or if they help me figure out/fix some problem with it that I can't figure out.

Well, now it'd be just silly of me to post anything to demonstrate otherwise, wouldn't it?

Not to evangelize too much, but have you looked at Ogre (instead of Irrlicht)? It's the most carefully designed open source rendering engine I've seen. We use it for our products at work, and it's been very good to us (as well as its forum and community).

Getting aquianted with the Newton Dynamics SDK for that at the moment.

Good call there.

This, I really don't get. I mean, I can understand appreciating intelligence and raw analytical skills, but it baffles me that someone could see sex appeal in the applied technical geeking out. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Wow, what a coincidence. Me, too!
