I will be giving a lisp talk in a few days at a meetup I regularly attend. Attendees have complained in the past about my emacs color theme not being readable when projected. What is a emacs color-theme suitable for maximum readability when projected?
Post "Q & A" update
I did some experimentation and found these color themes to be acceptable…
I've got a project which involves 3D reconstruction if point clouds from a 3D scanner. Being relatively new to the computer vision field I'm in the dark. The objective of the project is to implement this 3D reconstruction in C/C++ without using Matlab so that it can be further integrated with the ROS (for robots).
Can anyone guide me with this…

Currently I am creating a forest scene in the dark, and the trees are shining far away, but when I get close they are fine. I have the shaders set to "Nature/Tree Soft Occlusion [bark/leaves]", but they are still rendering strange far away, but close they are fine.
I tried placing the trees in a folder named "Ambient-Occlusion" like…
In Minecraft, the sunset looks really beautiful and I've always wanted to know how they do it.
Do they use several skyboxes rendered over eachother? That is, one for the sky (which can turn dark and light depending on the time of the day), one for the sun and moon, and one for the orange horizon effect?
I was hoping someone could…

Time for someone to explain how to do it yourself in a way that won't have you going around in circles thinking it's all a bit of a dark art.

My take is that if you don't have lots of time and budget, but you don't want to be left in the dark, dingy corners of the search engines (and social networks), learn how to drive-by SEO your blog. If it's simple and quick, you're more likely to make it a habit.

There is much talk currently about search engine optimisation (SEO). It appears to be the latest buzzword, and is often misconceived as being a dark art of marketing communications, no thanks to the many spammers who gave it a bad name in the 90s.

I've inherited a moderate size network that I'm trying to bring some sanity to. Basically, its 8 public class Cs and a slew of private ranges all on one vlan (vlan1, of course). Most of the network is located throughout dark sites.

I have some difficulties with setting up a "theme switcher" programmatically.
I would like to switch themes from app (between White (Theme.Light.NoTitleBar) and Dark (Theme.Black.NoTitleBar)) and what I do is:
