vr seems to be doomed to forever be a niche, so this may very well be one of the final “mainstream” hardware releases.

idk how the heck your union works but my dues pay a staff of experts and lawyers that can argue on my behalf in a dispute

you should poop more

then it should be back by now

yup

i’m glad they started working on it again, it went like two years without updates after amos left.

it’s a compressed lookup table. rather than there being one response for every input, the input is used as a seed to decompress relevant parts of the dataset, with some added randomness. you can even do it with gzip itself: https://nathan.rs/posts/gzip-lm

the linked paper is very good: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.10668

the big difference is i haven’t heard of any security issues in it.

gotta take away commuting time as well

there are so many strange issues with nix that i’m sort of regretting not going for guix as my user mode package manager.

god these are all so weird.

jxl can also extract the original jpeg bit-for-bit, meaning you can save space on disk and still serve exactly the same images as some clients expect. no rewrites.

the big win is that it can re-encode existing jpegs to shrink them by like 30%. also the image is compressed spatially (i think that’s the word) so it can be displayed as it’s downloading rather than coming in line by line.

pronounced “jay-if”, naturally

i said i could get away with it. not that anyone else is allowed to.
