@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net Jesus, that was quick. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I shrank Day 9 Part 2 from “cover the whole map” to “only track the interesting lines.” By compressing coordinates to just the unique x/y breakpoints, the grid got tiny. I still flood-fill and do the corner-pair checks, but now on that compact grid with weighted prefix sums for instant rectangle checks. Result: far less RAM, way less CPU, same correct answer.

@prologic@twtxt.net How did you optimize that? 🤔

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Good 😊

@prologic@twtxt.net bilingual trivia: 無 (mu) means nothing in Japanese

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Funny you should say that, I designed a new Prolog(ish) Symbolic Reasoning Engine and DSl over the holidays 🤣

what would be funny is @prologic@twtxt.net writing things with his namesake (Prolog)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org whatever either means, no thank you

That’s some cool science in @xuu@txt.sour.is’s backyard: https://youtu.be/bzBcs0jv9G4

@prologic@twtxt.net You won’t need floats, but 64 bit integers are mandatory. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net Whoop, whoop! Nice! And welcome back. 😅

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Time to become a trixie or forky!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yes, exactly. It also blows my mind that with sooo much less budget and equipment, her videos are way superior to productions of big TV stations.

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe is that https://github.com/owncloud/ocis (Go based, instead of PHP 🤮)?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I swear, Her vlog is all I needed to cleanse my soul! Full of pure human interactions (whenever there is any), No BS No pretending and No Nonsense. Again, Thank you!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Anytime! Glad you like it, too. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org It was too late when I read the “Addictive” warning… 😆 Thanks for sharing this!

@bender@twtxt.net agreed

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com probably a bug on my end with the bridge. I’ll figure it out with your help when I get home from my holidays.

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe it was a mess, we are better without it. Until a new mobile client comes (not holding my breath), Yarn is very usable on the mobile, just using the browser.

@prologic@twtxt.net I dunno if it’s me or the bridge, but my pleroma instance didn’t pull any of your notes + a follow request got stuck as Request Sent

@prologic@twtxt.net If it works, why even bother fixing it?

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Irony ensues, libwebp also had a CVE around this year or the last year, to boot

@bender@twtxt.net and EU doing the exact same thing, probably even worse

Waiting for @prologic@twtxt.net to make it back from his luxurious vacation, to engage on Australia’s teen-under-16 social media banning technical, parental, and philosophical discourse.

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net I see, ta! :-)

@bender@twtxt.net that’s kind of what I was getting it initially yeah

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this is brilliant!

@zvava@twtxt.net I figure I will know when it is ready, the day I see you using it. Can’t wait! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de lovely, thanks for sharing! Now you know what I will be using today on a loop.

@zvava@twtxt.net looking sweet!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @zvava@twtxt.net I think people get sick of everything changing all the time and so don’t bother adopting things to change when things are already good enough 🤷

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, but isn’t it from 2010? No widespread adoption after 15 years? Is there that much inertia? 🤔 On my box, everything just works – browser, GIMP, ImageMagick, imlib2, … 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think WebP being new just hasn’t seen widespread adoption everywhere (yet) 🧐

@zvava@twtxt.net come on, bbycll, come! :-P

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, no idea why that is. 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice! 🌇

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org where he was is fog. That’s on the mountains.

@prologic@twtxt.net Nice! And foggy as heck, very beautiful! Or is this smog?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de The terminal colors change quite drastically, but not the photo. Interesting.

@prologic@twtxt.net That looks super humid. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net who is that handsome man?! Looking good! :-)

@bender@twtxt.net

@bender@twtxt.net No no we did!!! Just the photos are rubbish 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net I like this one. Haven’t been to the Golden Bridge yet? Make sure you do!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh you are a brilliant man 🙌

@prologic@twtxt.net Here you go:

(LTT = “Linus Tech Tips”, that’s the host.)

LTT: There was a recent thing from a major tech company, where developers were asked to say how many lines of code they wrote – and if it wasn’t enough, they were terminated. And there was someone here that was extremely upset about that approach to measuring productivity, because–

Torvalds: Oh yeah, no, you shouldn’t even be upset. At that point, that’s just incompetence. Anybody who thinks that’s a valid metric is too stupid to work at a tech company.

LTT: You do know who you just said that about, right?

Torvalds: No.

LTT: Oh. Uh, he was a prominent figure in the, uh, improved efficiency of the US government recently.

Torvalds: Oh. Apparently I was spot on.
