I know that happens. The people are far more interesting. They are not really used to the temperatures, don't have proper clothing and don't know at all what to do when they have to get into the car and drive.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I believe we need some statistics on how cold it can be and still fly.

The colder it gets, the more dense the air gets so should become easier to create lift (more than the extra friction with a good wing design.)
Eventually the gasses in the air would liquefy, at which point would be advantageous to move to a submarine.
And beyond that solidify, a tunnel borer would then be a logical choice.

The problems may not come from the air density. Instead, the lithium polymere batteries may catch a cold. I will keep them in the car until I need them and after that they will warm up as they are discharged. It still could be that the helicopter is a little slower than usual today.

I was more thinking about batteries getting useless in the cold, or what kind of motor are you using?

I'm not saying you should be debugging on a Sunday afternoon, but you should certainly not go out in the snow and cold. Especially since you'll be holding a remote controller preventing you from making your hands into fists and keeping them in your pockets where they have a chance of not freezing off.
Easiest choice ever.
Let me know when you need some more life advice

That was indeed a problem. By the last flight my fingers were frozen and I had to land it with my telekinetic powers. If you only had not posted it after I already headed out there...

Yes, there is indeed something you can help me with. The highway was full with cars with yellow license plates and 'NL' in a blue field. I think they come all the way from Mordor every year when they hear that there is snow. How can I get them out of the way when the 30 mm is empty again, like it was today?

Next time, just bring your tank. It won't even notice the other cars.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Until some scrap gets into the tracks, or I get the bill for repairing the road from the highway dept. And a battle tank with 65 tons is not exactly a racing car. If it must be something that gulps down a bathtub full of fuel just to start the engine, I would prefer a real helicopter.

I'll let you know how to get rid of the Dutch in winter once we figure out how to keep the Germans away from our beaches in summer

Get out. The code will be there when you get back.
And you never know: being away from the code may give you a light bulb moment.

Sounds like an automatic conversion issue somewhere (unsigned int to int, or something). Good luck!
Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

Thanks, it must be something like that. The shader was written with HLSL (High Level Shading Language) Ver. 2, the new compiler wants at least Ver. 4. It's a more complex shader that does not only does the usual transformations and texture mapping. It also does the entire animation for the particles in the particle system.
Tomorrow ater work I'm going to take it apart and then I will try to find out which part goes wrong. As it looks now, the particles are rendered, but appear nowhere in sight. The whole thing is going to be some work. The next step will be to get the UI working again.

But it's the time when you can spend all day coding things you want to code and learning languages that have no use whatsoever. Just make sure that your room is the one furthest from the kitchen. She will make the journey a couple of times a day with a cup of your favourite but the journey's really just to make sure you're still alive.
