    looks a bit photoshopped to tell the truth... something about the shadows and occasional lack-thereof, something to do with the light and direction thereof...

    I've got a higher res of the image, the pile of stuff to the immediate left of the external stairs, is a huge pile of crutches.

    Or merely a missing loop exit condition?

    What *is* the loop exit condition meant to be?

    Looks fine to me... There's a few lack of shadows that look to me
    that the shadow would be obscured by "busyness" of the low res picture
    we have.

    hmmmm what's going on in the attic ? 😕

    all those vents...some UV cultivation perhaps!!(Can.sativa?) ... 😄 !!!

    Most people run out of storage at around N=10, or even less, which puts a
    hard limit on it. Luckily the algorithm is reasonably elegant, and permits
    swapping in and out for newer ns. In this case someone has optimised the
    storage part of the function to permit rather large values of n, though
    the trade off is slower access to any random element.

    Of course there is the complication of the imaginary numbers, the
    repurposing of N's!

    Road, time trial, commuter, soon to be fixed....

    Certainly no sign of grass in the back yard. On the contrary, looks like it has been used as some sort of crit course.

    Notice most of the bikes have the handle bars turned as if they've come
    nicely packed out of a shipping container AND they all look fairly
    shiny. Bizarre! There are a [censored] load of little pink ones too. Not
    sure if that's a pool or the top of an ICBM silo! This is something I'd
    sure like to see on Google Earth! Wouldn't that be a fun game... find a
    photo like this on the web and then try to find it's location on Google
    Earth! Like the Great Wall of Chine made of bikes!

    snippage...

    'most' people should get their priorities right!!!!

    having just got back into a double-figure family, i'm feeling 'comfortable' again...

    But then i saw a schmick Trek tandem with bob-trailer rock up at SthrnCross station this morning and realised there was yet ANOTHER bike to get.....

  17. The shadows are wrong - they go in different directions, if you look at the swing and then at some of the bikes on the ground.
