Because readers of hacker news, as objective and spock-like as they like to think they are, really can't help but reverse-ad hominen when they vote. People are right because of who they are, not what they said. At the very least the bias appears as a benefit of the doubt.
PG should have, instead of removing vote totals, removed usernames. But of course that would get in the way of the ego stroking..
Humm tried to implement it simply using std::complex but it does not give me meaningful results. What did I do wrong?
template<class T> void CalcRealPercentage( const complex<T> from, const complex<T> to, const int intervalSize, std::vector<int>& intensityMap ){ auto height = to.imag() - from.imag(); auto width = to.real() - from.real();
