After getting incredibly close with some recent roles I had applied for at Apple (a lifelong dream), and fumbling at the last few stages, I'm facing recurring fatigue and frustrations (this is a 5 year-long ongoing search).

If you are, or know, someone who's hiring - I'm available.

I have a decade's worth of Swift and Apple platforms experience, and make cool apps → https://www.pnguin.app

I can't believe a paid OS needs a tool like this. Here's a GUI tool called OFGB (Oh Frick Go Back) to remove all the ads in Windows 11. It's understandable if a free OS or app needs ad support, but this is just crazy https://github.com/xM4ddy/OFGB

Stages of learning about color:

  • It's as simple as arr-gee-bee!
  • YCbCr, what's that? That's crazy, why'd anyone do that.
  • electro-opti...what-now?
  • Blending must happen in optical space, everything else is WRONG! I know this! (Nope.)
  • Nits are nits, right? Nope.
  • I know most of the terms, I can compute and talk about stuff. (knows enough to be dangerous)
  • Huh, that's a curious demonstration.
  • Stimulus <-> color... no? Not even a little bit? Please?
  • I've no idea what I'm doing.

as I already posted here, I'm currently working on federated game using

I'm almost finishing my demo and the game landing page, so I want to gather some overall feedback on the idea itself (since demo is not finished)

The game is a real-time strategy game using cards PvP, the federate part, relates most of giving the players the possibility to create their own cards and servers, and of course, playing across different servers

Boosts are appreciated

The Tensor G3 is the first smartphone SoC to support hardware-accelerated AV1 encoding. It supports AV1 encoding at up to 4K60. No application (including the Pixel Camera app) takes advantage of this, though, likely due to a lack of platform support.

📝 I wrote a thing about color spaces in general and oklab()/oklch() in particular.

About 6 months ago I got a bee in my bonnet about the quality of current codecs. I ended up doing more than 1000 encodes, comparing various codecs, presets and quality settings. A little over a month ago I wrote something up about it.

colin,

Once I finished the first codec comparison, I discovered that both of the AV1 codecs I was testing had received substantial updates in the interim. I made the following post looking at how they have improved.

🚨 SIGNIFICANT, POSITIVE ANNOUNCEMENT ALERT 🚨

The European Mathmatical Society, working with research libraries, have found a way to make ALL of the research journals they publish open access, without the need for author-side fees (no APCs!). Bravo @EuroMathSoc

Breaking news: We are delighted that all @ems_press journals will be published Open Access in 2024! We are immensely proud of the leading role EMS Press is taking in the Open Access movement in mathematics, via the S2O model.

As André Gaul EMS Press CEO says: “to be able to transform the publishing house from a traditional subscription journals business to a fully open access one in under 5 years is a tremendous success for the whole team, and a real win for the wider mathematical community."

We agree!

Really pleased to see this post outlining how @devs helps deliver more of the fediverse than any other platform. And the majority of that is done for free, as part of our Fast Forward program for supporting open source and the open web. Best of all, there are lots of different platforms doing this work, exactly as you'd hope — the open web is more competitive and enables lots of different options. https://blog.benjojo.co.uk/post/who-hosts-the-fediverse-instances

Whenever I get back into open source, I feel so much more optimistic about things. FLOSS is so contrary to the notion that people are fundamentally selfish. Maybe a lot of people are, but here is a community that loves to make cool things and share them. Where the idea of the greater good still has some value and is not antithetical to personal freedom. You get to feel like your computer is actually yours, not a corporate-mandated data-gathering device, and actually have fun with computing.

I would like to share a very cool project I've been working on with a couple of other very talented developers: SVT-AV1 PSY

https://github.com/gianni-rosato/svt-av1-psy

SVT-AV1-PSY is the Scalable Video Technology for AV1 (SVT-AV1 Encoder and Decoder) with perceptual enhancements for psychovisually optimal AV1 encoding. The goal is to create the best encoding implementation for perceptual quality with AV1.

We've already implemented a couple of unique features not present in mainline that do appear to produce BD-rate gains on a number of clips already!! Please check it out!
