trig

I'm sure even I would have forgotten some of the trig, but to not know ANY?

On the other hand, the N-trig stylus works accurately at the edge of the screen.

Go to your shitty school and learn; if you don't understand trig, don't ask me because I never learned it.

I tried to keep things at the high school trig/algebra II level for this one. I've proofread it a billion times now but is there anything I can clarify?

Even basic trig ops can return stupid values at extremes which makes them untrustworthy.

I made a C in algebra, a C in trig, and then took calculus from a handicapped polio survivor named Mr.

...> The secret trig functions, like logarithms, made computations easier.

Sometimes the things you've forgotten are important indeed!The other day I was building something and realized that I hadn't done a trig problem in at least 10 years.

Kids are taught useless trigonometric identities when they could be studying applied statistics, which is not only substantially more useful, but it opens a lot more doors for reasoning about the world.

You might equally ask why the planets follow the trig functions so closely when they orbit the sun, or why the shape of the Earth is close to a sphere, or why the first digit of the amount of money in your pocket has a roughly 30% chance of being 1, but only an 18% chance of being 2.

Render this old effect as greyscale into a buffer than use it as a height/displacement-map style texture - with this solution implementing real-time ripples and fluid like response to objects entering the liquid comes down to rendering the outline into that buffer and these kinds of waves simply fall out rather than requiring maintenance or trig calls...
